1After two years Pharao had a dream. He thought he stood by the river,

stylus

2Out of which came up seven kine, very beautiful and fat: and they fed in marshy places.

stylus

Isaiah 19:6, Isaiah 19:6

3Other seven also came up out of the river, ill-favoured, and lean fleshed: and they fed on the very bank of the river, in green places:

stylus

Genesis 41:4, Genesis 41:20, Genesis 41:21, Genesis 41:4, Genesis 41:20

4And they devoured them, whose bodies were very beautiful and well conditioned. So Pharao awoke.

stylus

1 Kings 3:15, 1 Kings 3:15

5He slept again, and dreamed another dream: Seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk full and fair:

stylus

Deuteronomy 32:14, Deuteronomy 32:14

6Then seven other ears sprung up thin and blasted,

stylus

Ezekiel 17:10, Hosea 13:15, Ezekiel 19:12, Ezekiel 17:10, Hosea 13:15

7And devoured all the beauty of the former. Pharao awaked after his rest:

stylus

Genesis 37:5, Genesis 20:3, Genesis 37:5, Genesis 20:3

8And when morning was come, being struck with fear, he sent to all the interpreters of Egypt, and to all the wise men: and they being called for, he told them his dream, and there was not any one that could interpret it.

stylus

Daniel 4:7, Daniel 4:7, Exodus 7:22, Exodus 7:22, Daniel 4:5

9Then at length the chief butler remembering, said: I confess my sin:

stylus

Genesis 40:23, Genesis 40:14, Genesis 40:23, Genesis 40:14, Genesis 40:1

10The king being angry with his servants, commanded me and the chief baker to be cast into the prison of the captain of the soldiers.

stylus

Genesis 39:20, Genesis 39:20, Genesis 40:2, Genesis 40:3, Genesis 40:2

11Where in one night both of us dreamed a dream foreboding things to come.

stylus

Genesis 40:5, Genesis 40:8, Genesis 40:5, Genesis 40:8

12There was there a young man a Hebrew, servant to the same captain of the soldiers: to whom we told our dreams,

stylus

Genesis 40:12, Genesis 40:19, Genesis 37:36, Genesis 40:12, Genesis 40:19

13And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet.

stylus

Jeremiah 1:10, Genesis 40:12, Ezekiel 43:3, Genesis 40:20, Genesis 40:22

14Forthwith at the king's command Joseph was brought out of the prison, and they shaved him: and changing his apparel brought him in to him.

stylus

Daniel 2:25, Daniel 2:25, Psalms 113:7, Psalms 113:8, Psalms 113:7

15And he said to him: I have dreamed dreams, and there is no one that can expound them: Now I have heard that thou art very wise at interpreting them:

stylus

Daniel 5:16, Daniel 5:16, Daniel 5:12, Daniel 5:12, Genesis 41:9

16Joseph answered: Without me, God shall give Pharao a prosperous answer.

stylus

2 Corinthians 3:5, 2 Corinthians 3:5, Genesis 40:8, Genesis 40:8, Daniel 2:47

17So Pharao told what he had dreamed: Methought I stood upon the bank of the river,

stylus

18And seven kine came up out of the river, exceeding beautiful and full of flesh: and they grazed on green places in a marshy pasture.

stylus

Jeremiah 24:1, Jeremiah 24:3, Jeremiah 24:8, Jeremiah 24:5, Jeremiah 24:1

19And behold, there followed these, other seven kine, so very ill-favoured and lean, that I never saw the like in the land of Egypt:

stylus

20And they devoured and consumed the former,

stylus

21And yet gave no mark of their being full: but were as lean and ill-favoured as before. I awoke, and then fell asleep again,

stylus

Isaiah 9:20, Psalms 37:19, Revelation 10:9, Revelation 10:10, Ezekiel 3:3

22And dreamed a dream: Seven ears of corn grew up upon one stalk, full and very fair.

stylus

23Other seven also thin and blasted, sprung of the stalk:

stylus

Hosea 9:16, Hosea 13:15, Psalms 129:6, Psalms 129:7, 2 Kings 19:26

24And they devoured the beauty of the former: I told this dream to the conjecturers, and there is no man that can expound it.

stylus

Daniel 4:7, Genesis 41:8, Daniel 4:7, Genesis 41:8, Exodus 8:19

25Joseph answered: The king's dream is one: God hath shewn to Pharao what he is about to do.

stylus

Daniel 2:45, Daniel 2:45, Daniel 2:28, Daniel 2:29, Daniel 2:28

26The seven beautiful kine, and the seven full ears, are seven years of plenty: and both contain the same meaning of the dream.

stylus

Genesis 41:47, Genesis 41:2, Genesis 41:47, Genesis 41:2, 1 John 5:7

27And the seven lean and thin kine that came up after them, and the seven thin ears that were blasted with the burning wind, are seven years of famine to come:

stylus

2 Kings 8:1, 2 Kings 8:1, 2 Samuel 24:19, 2 Samuel 24:19

28Which shall be fulfilled in this order.

stylus

Genesis 41:25, Genesis 41:25, Genesis 41:16, Genesis 41:16

29Behold, there shall come seven years of great plenty in the whole land of Egypt:

stylus

Genesis 41:26, Genesis 41:49, Genesis 41:46, Genesis 41:47, Genesis 41:26

30After which shall follow other seven years of so great scarcity, that all the abundance before shall be forgotten: for the famine shall consume all the land,

stylus

Genesis 47:13, Genesis 41:54, Genesis 47:13, Genesis 41:54, Psalms 105:16

31And the greatness of the scarcity shall destroy the greatness of the plenty.

stylus

Isaiah 24:20, Isaiah 24:20, 1 Samuel 5:6, 1 Samuel 5:6

32And for that thou didst see the second time a dream pertaining to the same thing: it is a token of the certainty, and that the word of God cometh to pass, and is fulfilled speedily.

stylus

Numbers 23:19, Numbers 23:19, Isaiah 46:10, Isaiah 46:11, Isaiah 46:10

33Now therefore let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and make him ruler over the land of Egypt:

stylus

Genesis 41:39, Genesis 41:39, Acts 6:3, Acts 6:3, Daniel 4:27

34That he may appoint overseers over all the countries: and gather into barns the fifth part of the fruits, during the seven fruitful years,

stylus

Proverbs 22:3, Numbers 31:14, Proverbs 6:6, Proverbs 6:8, Job 5:20

35That shall now presently ensue: and let all the corn be laid up, under Pharao's hands, and be reserved in the cities.

stylus

Genesis 41:56, Genesis 41:48, Genesis 41:49, Genesis 45:6, Genesis 45:7

36And let it be in readiness, against the famine of seven years to come, which shall oppress Egypt, and the land shall not be consumed with scarcity.

stylus

Genesis 47:13, Genesis 47:25, Genesis 47:13, Genesis 47:25

37The counsel pleased Pharao, and all his servants.

stylus

Acts 7:10, Acts 7:10, Proverbs 10:20, 2 Samuel 3:36, Joshua 22:30

38And he said to them: Can we find such another man, that is full of the spirit of God?

stylus

Job 32:8, Job 32:8, Daniel 5:14, Daniel 5:14, Numbers 27:18

39He said therefore to Joseph: Seeing God hath shewn thee all that thou hast said, can I find one wiser and one like unto thee?

stylus

Genesis 41:33, Genesis 41:28, Genesis 41:33, Genesis 41:28, Genesis 41:25

stylus

Daniel 5:29, Daniel 5:7, Daniel 5:29, Daniel 5:7, Esther 3:10

43And he made him go up into his second chariot, the crier proclaiming that all should bow their knee before him, and that they should know he was made governor over the whole land of Egypt.

stylus

Genesis 45:8, Genesis 45:8, Acts 7:10, Genesis 42:6, Genesis 45:26

stylus

Psalms 105:22, Psalms 105:22, Exodus 11:7, Exodus 11:7

45And he turned his name, and called him in the Egyptian tongue the saviour of the world. And he gave him to wife Aseneth, the daughter of Putiphare, priest of Heliopolis. Then Joseph went out to the land of Egypt.

stylus

Genesis 46:20, Genesis 46:20, Exodus 2:16, Ezekiel 30:17, Exodus 2:16

stylus

1 Kings 12:6, Daniel 1:19, 1 Kings 12:6, Daniel 1:19, Genesis 37:2

47And the fruitfulness of the seven years came: and the corn being bound up into sheaves, was gathered together into the barns of Egypt.

stylus

Genesis 26:12, Genesis 26:12, Psalms 72:16, Psalms 72:16

48And all the abundance of grain was laid up in every city.

stylus

Genesis 41:34, Genesis 41:36, Genesis 41:34, Genesis 41:36, Genesis 47:21

49And there was so great abundance of wheat, that it was equal to the sand of the sea, and the plenty exceeded measure.

stylus

Psalms 78:27, Psalms 78:27, Judges 7:12, Genesis 22:17, 1 Samuel 13:5

50And before the famine came, Joseph had two sons born: whom Aseneth, the daughter of Putiphare, priest of Heliopolis, bore unto him.

stylus

Genesis 49:22, Genesis 49:22, Genesis 50:23, Genesis 50:23, Genesis 17:6

53Now when the seven years of plenty that had been in Egypt were passed:

stylus

Psalms 73:20, Luke 16:25, Genesis 41:29, Genesis 41:31, Psalms 73:20

54The seven years of scarcity, which Joseph had foretold, began to come: and the famine prevailed in the whole world, but there was bread in all the land of Egypt.

stylus

Acts 7:11, Acts 7:11, Psalms 105:16, Genesis 45:11, Psalms 105:16

stylus

Matthew 3:17, Matthew 17:5, Matthew 3:17, Matthew 17:5, John 1:14
