Genesis 41:8-24

8And it came to pass in the morningH1242 that his spiritH7307 was troubledH6470; and he sentH7971 and calledH7121 for all the magiciansH2748 of EgyptH4714, and all its wise menH2450: and PharaohH6547 toldH5608 them his dreamH2472; but there was none that could interpretH6622 them to PharaohH6547.

9Then spokeH1696 the chiefH8269 butlerH8248 to PharaohH6547, sayingH559, I do rememberH2142 my faultsH2399 this dayH3117: 10PharaohH6547 was furiousH7107 with his servantsH5650, and putH5414 me in custodyH4929 in the captainH8269 of the guard’sH2876 houseH1004, both me and the chiefH8269 bakerH644: 11And we dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472 in oneH259 nightH3915, I and he; we dreamedH2492 each manH376 according to the interpretationH6623 of his dreamH2472. 12And there was there with us a young manH5288, an HebrewH5680, servantH5650 to the captainH8269 of the guardH2876; and we toldH5608 him, and he interpretedH6622 to us our dreamsH2472; to each manH376 according to his dreamH2472 he interpretedH6622. 13And it came to pass, as he interpretedH6622 to us, so it was; me he restoredH7725 to my officeH3653, and him he hangedH8518. 14Then PharaohH6547 sentH7971 and calledH7121 JosephH3130, and they brought him hastilyH7323 out of the dungeonH953: and he shavedH1548 himself, and changedH2498 his raimentH8071, and cameH935 before PharaohH6547.1 15And PharaohH6547 saidH559 to JosephH3130, I have dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472, and there is none that can interpretH6622 it: and I have heardH8085 it saidH559 of thee, that thou canst understandH8085 a dreamH2472 to interpretH6622 it.2 16And JosephH3130 answeredH6030 PharaohH6547, sayingH559, It is not in meH1107: GodH430 shall giveH6030 PharaohH6547 an answerH6030 of peaceH7965.

17And PharaohH6547 saidH1696 to JosephH3130, In my dreamH2472, behold, I stoodH5975 upon the bankH8193 of the riverH2975: 18And, behold, there cameH5927 out of the riverH2975 sevenH7651 cowsH6510, fatfleshedH1277H1320 and wellH3303 favouredH8389; and they fedH7462 in a meadowH260: 19And, behold, sevenH7651 otherH312 cowsH6510 came outH5927 after themH310, poorH1803 and veryH3966 illH7451 favouredH8389 and leanfleshedH7534H1320, suchH2007 as I neverH3808 sawH7200 in all the landH776 of EgyptH4714 for badnessH7455: 20And the leanH7534 and the ill favouredH7451 cowsH6510 ate upH398 the firstH7223 sevenH7651 fatH1277 cowsH6510: 21And when they had eaten them upH935H7130, it could not be knownH3045 that they had eaten themH935H7130; but they were stillH4758 ill favouredH7451, as at the beginningH8462. So I awokeH3364.3 22And I sawH7200 in my dreamH2472, and, behold, sevenH7651 earsH7641 came upH5927 on oneH259 stalkH7070, fullH4392 and goodH2896: 23And, behold, sevenH7651 earsH7641, witheredH6798, thinH1851, and parchedH7710 with the east windH6921, sprung upH6779 after themH310:4 24And the thinH1851 earsH7641 devouredH1104 the sevenH7651 goodH2896 earsH7641: and I toldH559 this to the magiciansH2748; but there was none that could make knownH5046 the meaning of it to me.
