Genesis 41:24-33

1. 24 And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I told this unto the magicians; but there was none that could declare it to me.

2. 25 And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath shewed Pharaoh what he is about to do.

3. 26 The seven good kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one.

4. 27 And the seven thin and ill favoured kine that came up after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted with the east wind shall be seven years of famine.

5. 28 This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he sheweth unto Pharaoh.

6. 29 Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:

7. 30 And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land;

8. 31 And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following; for it shall be very grievous.

9. 32 And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice; it is because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.

10. 33 Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
