Genesis 41:2-18

2And, beholdH2009, there cameH5927 upH5927 outH4480 of the riverH2975 sevenH7651 kine, well favoured and fatfleshed; and they fed in the reed-grass.

3And, beholdH2009, sevenH7651 otherH312 kine cameH5927 upH5927 afterH310 them outH4480 of the riverH2975, ill favoured and leanfleshed; and stoodH5975 by the otherH312 kine uponH5921 the brink of the riverH2975.

4And the ill favoured and leanfleshed kine did eatH398 upH853 the sevenH7651 well favoured and fatH1277 kine. SoH853 PharaohH6547 awokeH3364.

5And he sleptH3462 and dreamedH2492 a secondH8145 time: and, beholdH2009, sevenH7651 earsH7641 of corn cameH5927 upH5927 upon one stalkH7070, rank and goodH2896.

6And, beholdH2009, sevenH7651 earsH7641, thinH1851 and blasted with the eastH6921 windH6921, sprungH6779 upH6779 afterH310 them.

7And the thinH1851 earsH7641 swallowedH1104 upH1104 the sevenH7651 rank and fullH4392 earsH7641. And PharaohH6547 awokeH3364, and, beholdH2009, it was a dreamH2472.

8And it cameH1961 to passH1961 in the morningH1242 that his spiritH7307 was troubledH6470; and he sentH7971 and calledH7121 for allH3605 the magiciansH2748 of EgyptH4714, and allH3605 the wiseH2450 menH2450 thereof: and PharaohH6547 toldH5608 them his dreamH2472; but there was noneH369 that could interpretH6622 them unto PharaohH6547.

9Then spake the chiefH8269 butler unto PharaohH6547, sayingH559, I doH589 rememberH2142 my faults this dayH3117:

10PharaohH6547 was wroth with his servantsH5650, and putH5414 meH5414 in ward in the houseH1004 of the captainH8269 of the guardH2876, meH5414 and the chiefH8269 bakerH644:

11and weH589 dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472 in one nightH3915, I and he; weH589 dreamedH2492 eachH376 manH376 accordingH376 to the interpretationH6623 of his dreamH2472.

12And there was with usH5608 there a youngH5288 manH376, an HebrewH5680, servantH5650 to the captainH8269 of the guardH2876; and weH8033 toldH5608 him, and he interpretedH6622 to usH5608 our dreamsH2472; to eachH376 manH376 accordingH376 to his dreamH2472 he didH376 interpretH6622.

13And it cameH1961 to passH1961, as he interpretedH6622 to usH5921, soH3651 it was; meH7725 he restoredH7725 unto mine office, and him he hangedH8518.

14Then PharaohH6547 sentH7971 and calledH7121 JosephH3130, and they broughtH935 him hastily outH4480 of the dungeon: and he shavedH1548 himselfH413, and changedH2498 his raiment, and cameH935 in unto PharaohH6547.

15And PharaohH6547 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, I have dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472, and there is noneH369 that canH369 interpretH6622 it: and I have heardH8085 sayH559 of thee, that when thou hearest a dreamH2472 thou canst interpretH6622 it.

16And JosephH3130 answeredH559 PharaohH6547, sayingH559, It is not in meH6030: GodH430 shall giveH6030 PharaohH6547 an answerH6030 of peaceH7965.

17And PharaohH6547 spake unto JosephH3130, In my dreamH2472, beholdH2005, I stoodH5975 uponH5921 the brink of the riverH2975:

18and, beholdH2009, there cameH5927 upH5927 outH4480 of the riverH2975 sevenH7651 kine, fatfleshed and well favoured; and they fed in the reed-grass:
