PAROH DREAMS
And so be it, at the end of two years of days, Paroh dreams: and behold, he stands by the river: 2 and behold, seven heifers ascend from the river - beautiful visaged and fatfleshed; and they graze in the bulrushes: 3 and behold, seven other heifers ascend after them from the river - evil visaged and thinfleshed and they stand by the heifers on the edge of the river: 4 and the evil visaged and thinfleshed heifers eat up the seven beautiful visaged and fat heifers - and Paroh wakes. 5 And he sleeps and dreams the second: and behold, seven ears ascend on one stem, fat and good: 6 and behold, seven thin ears blasted by the easterly spring up after them: 7 and the thin ears swallow the seven fat and full ears - and Paroh wakes, and behold, it is a dream. 8 And so be it, in the morning, his spirit agitates; and he sends and calls for all the magicians of Misrayim and all the wise thereof: and Paroh describes his dream; and there is no interpreter to Paroh. 9 Then the governor of the butlers words to Paroh, saying, I remember my sins this day: 10 Paroh raged with his servants and gave me under guard in the house of the governor of the slaughterer - me and the governor of the bakers: 11 and we dreamed a dream in one night - I and he - we dreamed - each man according to the interpretation of his dream. 12 And there is a lad with us - a Hebrew, servant to the governor of the slaughterers; and we describe to him and he interprets to us our dreams; to each man according to his dream he interprets. 13 And so be it, as he interprets to us, so be it; he restores me to my station and he hangs him. 14 Then Paroh sends and calls Yoseph and they run him from the well: and he shaves and changes his clothes and comes in to Paroh. 15 And Paroh says to Yoseph, I dreamed a dream and there is no interpreter: and I hear say of you, that you hear a dream to interpret it. 16 And Yoseph answers Paroh, saying, Except for I: Elohim answers Paroh with shalom. 17 And Paroh words to Yoseph, In my dream, behold, I stand on the edge of the river: 18 and behold, seven heifers ascend from the river - fatfleshed and of beautiful form; and they graze in the bulrushes: 19 and behold, seven other heifers ascend after them - poor and mighty evilly formed and emaciated flesh such as I have never seen in all the land of Misrayim for evil: 20 and the emaciated and the evil heifers ate the first seven fat heifers: 21 and entered their inwards, they are not seen entering their inwards; and they are still evilly visaged as at the beginning - and I waken. 22 And I see in my dream, and behold, seven ears ascend in one stem, full and good: 23 and behold, seven ears, withered, thin, blasted with the easterly, spring up after them: 24 and the thin ears swallow the seven good ears. - and I say this to the magicians; and there is none to tell me. 25 And Yoseph says to Paroh, The dream of Paroh is one: Elohim told Paroh what he is about to work. 26 The seven good heifers are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one. 27 And the seven emaciated and evil heifers ascending after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted with the easterly are seven years of famine. 28 This is the word I worded to Paroh: What Elohim is about to work, he has Paroh see. 29 Behold, there come seven years of great sufficiency throughout all the land of Misrayim: 30 and after them rise seven years of famine: and all the sufficiency of the land of Misrayim is forgotten; and the famine finishes off the land: 31 and the sufficiency is not known in the land at the face of the famine - for it is mighty heavy. 32 And because of duplicating the dream to Paroh two times; surely the word is established by Elohim; and Elohim hastens to work. 33 And now Paroh, seek a man discerning and wise and set him over the land of Misrayim. 34 Paroh, work this; and muster overseers over the land - over a fifth of the land of Misrayim in the seven years of sufficiency: 35 and have them gather all the food of those good years that come and heap grain under the hand of Paroh and have them guard food in the cities: 36 and that food is for overseeing to the land for the seven years of famine in the land of Misrayim - that the land not be cut through the famine. 37 And the word well-pleases the eyes of Paroh and the eyes of all his servants: 38 and Paroh says to his servants, Can we find thus - a man in whom the Spirit of Elohim is? 39 And Paroh says to Yoseph, Since Elohim has you know all this, no one is as discerning and wise as you: 40 you - you be over my house; all my people kiss your mouth: only in the throne I am greater than you. 41 And Paroh says to Yoseph, Behold, I give you over all the land of Misrayim. 42 - and Paroh turns aside his signet from his hand and gives it on the hand of Yoseph; and enrobes him in clothes of white linen and puts a gold chain about his neck; 43 and he has him ride in his second chariot; and they call at his face, Kneel! - and he gives him over all the land of Misrayim. 44 And Paroh says to Yoseph, I - Paroh! And without you no man lifts his hand or foot in all the land of Misrayim. 45 And Paroh calls the name of Yoseph, Sophnath Paneach; and he gives him to woman Asenath the daughter of Poti Phera priest of On: and Yoseph goes over the land of Misrayim. 46 And Yoseph is a son of thirty years as he stands at the face of Paroh sovereign of Misrayim: and Yoseph goes from the face of Paroh and passes through all the land of Misrayim. 47 And in the seven years of sufficiency the earth works by handfuls: 48 and he gathers all the food of the seven years in the land of Misrayim; and gives the food in the cities - the food of the field, around every city, he gives among them: 49 and Yoseph heaps grain as the sand of the sea - mightily abounding, until he ceases scribing - innumerable. 50
YOSEPH BIRTHS MENASH SHEH AND EPHRAYIM
And ere the years of famine comes, two sons are birthed to Yoseph which Asenath the daughter of Poti Phera priest of On births to him: 51 and Yoseph calls the name of the firstbirth Menash Sheh - for Elohim has me forget all my drudgery and all the house of my father. 52 And he calls the name of the second Ephrayim: for Elohim has me to bear fruit in the land of my humiliation. 53 And the seven years of sufficiency in the land of Misrayim finish: 54 and the seven years of famine begin to enter as Yoseph said: and the famine is in all lands: but in all the land of Misrayim there is bread. 55 And all the land of Misrayim famishes and the people cry to Paroh for bread: and Paroh says to all the Misrayim, Go to Yoseph! Whatever he says to you, work! 56 And the famine is over all the face of the earth: and Yoseph opens all the storehouses and markets kernels to the Misrayim: and the famine prevails in the land of Misrayim: 57 and all lands come to Misrayim to Yoseph to market for kernels; because the famine prevails in all lands.
