Genesis 41:46-56

46And JosephH3130 was thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 old when he stoodH5975 before PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714. And JosephH3130 wentH3318 out from PharaohH6547, and passedH5674 through the whole landH776 of EgyptH4714.

47And in the sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of plentyH7647 the landH776 brought forth by handfuls.

48And he gatheredH6908 up all the foodH400 of the sevenH7651 yearsH8141 that wasH1961 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and putH5414 the foodH400 in the citiesH5892; the foodH400 of the fieldsH7704 of the cityH5892, which were roundH5439 about it, he laid up in it.

49And JosephH3130 laid up corn as sandH2344 of the seaH3220 exceeding muchH7235, until they left off numberingH4557; for it was without numberH4557.

50And to JosephH3130 were bornH3205 twoH8147 sonsH1121 before the yearH8141 of famineH7458 cameH935, whom Asnath the daughterH1323 of Potipherah the priestH3548 in On boreH3205 to him.

51And JosephH3130 calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the firstbornH1060 ManassehH4519 — For 1GodH430 has made me forgetH5382 all my toilH5999, and all my father's houseH1004.

52And the nameH8034 of the secondH8145 he calledH7121 EphraimH669 — For 2GodH430 has caused me to be fruitfulH6509 in the landH776 of my affliction.

53And the sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of plentyH7647 that were in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 were endedH3615;

54and the sevenH7651 yearsH8141 of the dearth beganH2490 to comeH935, according as JosephH3130 had saidH559. And there wasH1961 dearth in all landsH776; but in all the landH776 of EgyptH4714 there wasH1961 breadH3899.

55And all the landH776 of EgyptH4714 suffered from the dearth. And the peopleH5971 criedH6817 to PharaohH6547 for breadH3899; and PharaohH6547 saidH559 to all the Egyptians, Go to JosephH3130: what he saysH559 to you, that do.

56And the famineH7458 wasH1961 on all the earthH776. And JosephH3130 openedH6605 every place in which there wasH1961 [provision], and soldH7666 grain to the Egyptians; and the famineH7458 wasH1961 grievous in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
