Genesis 41 (WEBP)

[1] At the end of two full years, Pharaoh dreamed, and behold, he stood by the river.
[2] Behold, seven cattle came up out of the river. They were sleek and fat, and they fed in the marsh grass.
[3] Behold, seven other cattle came up after them out of the river, ugly and thin, and stood by the other cattle on the brink of the river.
[4] The ugly and thin cattle ate up the seven sleek and fat cattle. So Pharaoh awoke.
[5] He slept and dreamed a second time; and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, healthy and good.
[6] Behold, seven heads of grain, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
[7] The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy and full ears. Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.
[8] In the morning, his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all of Egypt’s magicians and wise men. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh.
[9] Then the chief cup bearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, “I remember my faults today.
[10] Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, with the chief baker.
[11] We dreamed a dream in one night, he and I. Each man dreamed according to the interpretation of his dream.
[12] There was with us there a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard, and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams. He interpreted to each man according to his dream.
[13] As he interpreted to us, so it was. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him.”
[14] Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. He shaved himself, changed his clothing, and came in to Pharaoh.
[15] Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have dreamed a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. I have heard it said of you, that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”
[16] Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, “It isn’t in me. God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.”
[17] Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, “In my dream, behold, I stood on the brink of the river;
[18] and behold, seven fat and sleek cattle came up out of the river. They fed in the marsh grass;
[19] and behold, seven other cattle came up after them, poor and very ugly and thin, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for ugliness.
[20] The thin and ugly cattle ate up the first seven fat cattle;
[21] and when they had eaten them up, it couldn’t be known that they had eaten them, but they were still ugly, as at the beginning. So I awoke.
[22] I saw in my dream, and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, full and good;
[23] and behold, seven heads of grain, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
[24] The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads of grain. I told it to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me.”
[25] Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God is about to do he has declared to Pharaoh.
[26] The seven good cattle are seven years; and the seven good heads of grain are seven years. The dream is one.
[27] The seven thin and ugly cattle that came up after them are seven years, and also the seven empty heads of grain blasted with the east wind; they will be seven years of famine.
[28] That is the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh. God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do.
[29] Behold, seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt are coming.
[30] Seven years of famine will arise after them, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land,
[31] and the plenty will not be known in the land by reason of that famine which follows; for it will be very grievous.
[32] The dream was doubled to Pharaoh, because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
[33] “Now therefore let Pharaoh look for a discreet and wise man, and set him over the land of Egypt.
[34] Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint overseers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt’s produce in the seven plenteous years.
[35] Let them gather all the food of these good years that come, and store grain under the hand of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it.
[36] The food will be to supply the land against the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt; so that the land will not perish through the famine.”
[37] The thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
[38] Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?”
[39] Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Because God has shown you all of this, there is no one so discreet and wise as you.
[40] You shall be over my house. All my people will be ruled according to your word. Only in the throne I will be greater than you.”
[41] Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Behold, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.”
[42] Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand, and put it on Joseph’s hand, and arrayed him in robes of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck.
[43] He made him ride in the second chariot which he had. They cried before him, “Bow the knee!” He set him over all the land of Egypt.
[44] Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh. Without you, no man shall lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.”
[45] Pharaoh called Joseph’s name Zaphenath-Paneah. He gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On as a wife. Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.
[46] Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.
[47] In the seven plenteous years the earth produced abundantly.
[48] He gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities. He stored food in each city from the fields around that city.
[49] Joseph laid up grain as the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting, for it was without number.
[50] To Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bore to him.
[51] Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh, “For”, he said, “God has made me forget all my toil, and all my father’s house.”
[52] The name of the second, he called Ephraim: “For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
[53] The seven years of plenty, that were in the land of Egypt, came to an end.
[54] The seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
[55] When all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do.”
[56] The famine was over all the surface of the earth. Joseph opened all the store houses, and sold to the Egyptians. The famine was severe in the land of Egypt.
[57] All countries came into Egypt, to Joseph, to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all the earth.

Genesis 41:51 “Manasseh” sounds like the Hebrew for “forget”.
Genesis 41:52 “Ephraim” sounds like the Hebrew for “twice fruitful”.

[16] And Joseph answered () Pharaoh, saying, () It is not in me: God shall give Pharaoh an answer () of peace.
[17] And Pharaoh said () unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood () upon the bank of the river:

[20] and the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat up () the first seven fat kine:
[21] and when they had eaten them up, () it could not be known () that they had eaten them; () but they were still ill favoured, as at the beginning. So I awoke. ()

Genesis 41 (BYZ)

[1] εγενετο δε μετα δυο ετη ημερων φαραω ειδεν ενυπνιον ωετο εσταναι επι του ποταμου
[2] και ιδου ωσπερ εκ του ποταμου ανεβαινον επτα βοες καλαι τω ειδει και εκλεκται ταις σαρξιν και εβοσκοντο εν τω αχει
[3] αλλαι δε επτα βοες ανεβαινον μετα ταυτας εκ του ποταμου αισχραι τω ειδει και λεπται ταις σαρξιν και ενεμοντο παρα τας βοας παρα το χειλος του ποταμου
[4] και κατεφαγον αι επτα βοες αι αισχραι και λεπται ταις σαρξιν τας επτα βοας τας καλας τω ειδει και τας εκλεκτας ηγερθη δε φαραω
[5] και ενυπνιασθη το δευτερον και ιδου επτα σταχυες ανεβαινον εν πυθμενι ενι εκλεκτοι και καλοι
[6] αλλοι δε επτα σταχυες λεπτοι και ανεμοφθοροι ανεφυοντο μετ αυτους
[7] και κατεπιον οι επτα σταχυες οι λεπτοι και ανεμοφθοροι τους επτα σταχυας τους εκλεκτους και τους πληρεις ηγερθη δε φαραω και ην ενυπνιον
[8] εγενετο δε πρωι και εταραχθη η ψυχη αυτου και αποστειλας εκαλεσεν παντας τους εξηγητας αιγυπτου και παντας τους σοφους αυτης και διηγησατο αυτοις φαραω το ενυπνιον και ουκ ην ο απαγγελλων αυτο τω φαραω
[9] και ελαλησεν ο αρχιοινοχοος προς φαραω λεγων την αμαρτιαν μου αναμιμνησκω σημερον
[10] φαραω ωργισθη τοις παισιν αυτου και εθετο ημας εν φυλακη εν τω οικω του αρχιμαγειρου εμε τε και τον αρχισιτοποιον
[11] και ειδομεν ενυπνιον εν νυκτι μια εγω τε και αυτος εκαστος κατα το αυτου ενυπνιον ειδομεν
[12] ην δε εκει μεθ ημων νεανισκος παις εβραιος του αρχιμαγειρου και διηγησαμεθα αυτω και συνεκρινεν ημιν
[13] εγενηθη δε καθως συνεκρινεν ημιν ουτως και συνεβη εμε τε αποκατασταθηναι επι την αρχην μου εκεινον δε κρεμασθηναι
[14] αποστειλας δε φαραω εκαλεσεν τον ιωσηφ και εξηγαγον αυτον εκ του οχυρωματος και εξυρησαν αυτον και ηλλαξαν την στολην αυτου και ηλθεν προς φαραω
[15] ειπεν δε φαραω τω ιωσηφ ενυπνιον εωρακα και ο συγκρινων ουκ εστιν αυτο εγω δε ακηκοα περι σου λεγοντων ακουσαντα σε ενυπνια συγκριναι αυτα
[16] αποκριθεις δε ιωσηφ τω φαραω ειπεν ανευ του θεου ουκ αποκριθησεται το σωτηριον φαραω
[17] ελαλησεν δε φαραω τω ιωσηφ λεγων εν τω υπνω μου ωμην εσταναι παρα το χειλος του ποταμου
[18] και ωσπερ εκ του ποταμου ανεβαινον επτα βοες καλαι τω ειδει και εκλεκται ταις σαρξιν και ενεμοντο εν τω αχει
[19] και ιδου επτα βοες ετεραι ανεβαινον οπισω αυτων εκ του ποταμου πονηραι και αισχραι τω ειδει και λεπται ταις σαρξιν οιας ουκ ειδον τοιαυτας εν ολη γη αιγυπτω αισχροτερας
[20] και κατεφαγον αι επτα βοες αι αισχραι και λεπται τας επτα βοας τας πρωτας τας καλας και εκλεκτας
[21] και εισηλθον εις τας κοιλιας αυτων και ου διαδηλοι εγενοντο οτι εισηλθον εις τας κοιλιας αυτων και αι οψεις αυτων αισχραι καθα και την αρχην εξεγερθεις δε εκοιμηθην
[22] και ειδον παλιν εν τω υπνω μου και ωσπερ επτα σταχυες ανεβαινον εν πυθμενι ενι πληρεις και καλοι

[28] το δε ρημα ο ειρηκα φαραω οσα ο θεος ποιει εδειξεν τω φαραω
[29] ιδου επτα ετη ερχεται ευθηνια πολλη εν παση γη αιγυπτω
[30] ηξει δε επτα ετη λιμου μετα ταυτα και επιλησονται της πλησμονης εν ολη γη αιγυπτω και αναλωσει ο λιμος την γην
[31] και ουκ επιγνωσθησεται η ευθηνια επι της γης απο του λιμου του εσομενου μετα ταυτα ισχυρος γαρ εσται σφοδρα
[32] περι δε του δευτερωσαι το ενυπνιον φαραω δις οτι αληθες εσται το ρημα το παρα του θεου και ταχυνει ο θεος του ποιησαι αυτο
[33] νυν ουν σκεψαι ανθρωπον φρονιμον και συνετον και καταστησον αυτον επι γης αιγυπτου
[34] και ποιησατω φαραω και καταστησατω τοπαρχας επι της γης και αποπεμπτωσατωσαν παντα τα γενηματα της γης αιγυπτου των επτα ετων της ευθηνιας
[35] και συναγαγετωσαν παντα τα βρωματα των επτα ετων των ερχομενων των καλων τουτων και συναχθητω ο σιτος υπο χειρα φαραω βρωματα εν ταις πολεσιν φυλαχθητω
[36] και εσται τα βρωματα πεφυλαγμενα τη γη εις τα επτα ετη του λιμου α εσονται εν γη αιγυπτω και ουκ εκτριβησεται η γη εν τω λιμω
[37] ηρεσεν δε τα ρηματα εναντιον φαραω και εναντιον παντων των παιδων αυτου
[38] και ειπεν φαραω πασιν τοις παισιν αυτου μη ευρησομεν ανθρωπον τοιουτον ος εχει πνευμα θεου εν αυτω
[39] ειπεν δε φαραω τω ιωσηφ επειδη εδειξεν ο θεος σοι παντα ταυτα ουκ εστιν ανθρωπος φρονιμωτερος και συνετωτερος σου
[40] συ εση επι τω οικω μου και επι τω στοματι σου υπακουσεται πας ο λαος μου πλην τον θρονον υπερεξω σου εγω
[41] ειπεν δε φαραω τω ιωσηφ ιδου καθιστημι σε σημερον επι πασης γης αιγυπτου
[42] και περιελομενος φαραω τον δακτυλιον απο της χειρος αυτου περιεθηκεν αυτον επι την χειρα ιωσηφ και ενεδυσεν αυτον στολην βυσσινην και περιεθηκεν κλοιον χρυσουν περι τον τραχηλον αυτου
[43] και ανεβιβασεν αυτον επι το αρμα το δευτερον των αυτου και εκηρυξεν εμπροσθεν αυτου κηρυξ και κατεστησεν αυτον εφ ολης γης αιγυπτου
[44] ειπεν δε φαραω τω ιωσηφ εγω φαραω ανευ σου ουκ εξαρει ουθεις την χειρα αυτου επι παση γη αιγυπτου
[45] και εκαλεσεν φαραω το ονομα ιωσηφ ψονθομφανηχ και εδωκεν αυτω την ασεννεθ θυγατερα πετεφρη ιερεως ηλιου πολεως αυτω γυναικα
[46] ιωσηφ δε ην ετων τριακοντα οτε εστη εναντιον φαραω βασιλεως αιγυπτου εξηλθεν δε ιωσηφ εκ προσωπου φαραω και διηλθεν πασαν γην αιγυπτου
[47] και εποιησεν η γη εν τοις επτα ετεσιν της ευθηνιας δραγματα
[48] και συνηγαγεν παντα τα βρωματα των επτα ετων εν οις ην η ευθηνια εν γη αιγυπτου και εθηκεν τα βρωματα εν ταις πολεσιν βρωματα των πεδιων της πολεως των κυκλω αυτης εθηκεν εν αυτη
[49] και συνηγαγεν ιωσηφ σιτον ωσει την αμμον της θαλασσης πολυν σφοδρα εως ουκ ηδυναντο αριθμησαι ου γαρ ην αριθμος
[50] τω δε ιωσηφ εγενοντο υιοι δυο προ του ελθειν τα επτα ετη του λιμου ους ετεκεν αυτω ασεννεθ θυγατηρ πετεφρη ιερεως ηλιου πολεως
[51] εκαλεσεν δε ιωσηφ το ονομα του πρωτοτοκου μανασση οτι επιλαθεσθαι με εποιησεν ο θεος παντων των πονων μου και παντων των του πατρος μου
[52] το δε ονομα του δευτερου εκαλεσεν εφραιμ οτι ηυξησεν με ο θεος εν γη ταπεινωσεως μου
[53] παρηλθον δε τα επτα ετη της ευθηνιας α εγενοντο εν γη αιγυπτω
[54] και ηρξαντο τα επτα ετη του λιμου ερχεσθαι καθα ειπεν ιωσηφ και εγενετο λιμος εν παση τη γη εν δε παση γη αιγυπτου ησαν αρτοι
[55] και επεινασεν πασα η γη αιγυπτου εκεκραξεν δε ο λαος προς φαραω περι αρτων ειπεν δε φαραω πασι τοις αιγυπτιοις πορευεσθε προς ιωσηφ και ο εαν ειπη υμιν ποιησατε
[56] και ο λιμος ην επι προσωπου πασης της γης ανεωξεν δε ιωσηφ παντας τους σιτοβολωνας και επωλει πασι τοις αιγυπτιοις
[57] και πασαι αι χωραι ηλθον εις αιγυπτον αγοραζειν προς ιωσηφ επεκρατησεν γαρ ο λιμος εν παση τη γη
