• Genesis 41:6

  Behold, seven heads of grain, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.

• Genesis 41:10

• Genesis 41:17

  Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, “In my dream, behold, I stood on the brink of the river:

• Genesis 41:18

  and behold, there came up out of the river seven cattle, fat and sleek. They fed in the marsh grass,

• Genesis 41:19

  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.

• Genesis 41:20

  The thin and ugly cattle ate up the first seven fat cattle,

• Genesis 41:21

  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.

• Genesis 41:22

  I saw in my dream, and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, full and good:

• Genesis 41:23

  and behold, seven heads of grain, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.

• Genesis 41:24

  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.”

• Genesis 41:25

  Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God is about to do he has declared to Pharaoh.

• Genesis 41:26

  The seven good cattle are seven years; and the seven good heads of grain are seven years. The dream is one.

• Genesis 41:27

  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.

• Genesis 41:28

  That is the thing which I spoke to Pharaoh. What God is about to do he has shown to Pharaoh.

• Genesis 41:29

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

• Genesis 41:30

  There will arise after them seven years of famine, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land,

• Genesis 41:31

  and the plenty will not be known in the land by reason of that famine which follows; for it will be very grievous.

• Genesis 41:32

  The dream was doubled to Pharaoh, because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.

• Genesis 41:33

  “Now therefore let Pharaoh look for a discreet and wise man, and set him over the land of Egypt.

• Genesis 41:34

  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.

• Genesis 41:35

  Let them gather all the food of these good years that come, and lay up grain under the hand of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it.

• Genesis 41:36

  The food will be for a store to the land against the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt; that the land not perish through the famine.”

• Genesis 41:37

  The thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.

• Genesis 41:38

  Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?”

• Genesis 41:39

  Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Because God has shown you all of this, there is no one so discreet and wise as you.

• Genesis 41:40

  You shall be over my house, and according to your word will all my people be ruled. Only in the throne I will be greater than you.”

• Genesis 41:41

  Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Behold, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.”

• Genesis 41:42

  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,

• Genesis 41:43

  and he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had. They cried before him, “Bow the knee!” He set him over all the land of Egypt.

• Genesis 41:44

  Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh, and without you shall no man lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.”

• Genesis 41:45

  Pharaoh called Joseph’s name Zaphenath-Paneah; and he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On as a wife. Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.

• Genesis 41:46

  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.

• Genesis 41:47

  In the seven plenteous years the earth produced abundantly.

• Genesis 41:48

  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: the food of the field, which was around every city, he laid up in the same.

• Genesis 41:49

  Joseph laid up grain as the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting, for it was without number.

• Genesis 41:50

  To Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bore to him.

• Genesis 41:51

  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.”

• Genesis 41:52

  The name of the second, he called Ephraim: “For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”

• Genesis 41:53

  The seven years of plenty, that were in the land of Egypt, came to an end.

• Genesis 41:54

  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.

• Genesis 41:55

  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.”

• Genesis 41:56

  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.

• Genesis 41:57

  All countries came into Egypt, to Joseph, to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all the earth.

• Genesis 45:5

  Now don’t be grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life.

• Genesis 45:6

  For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are yet five years, in which there will be no plowing and no harvest.

• Genesis 45:7

  God sent me before you to preserve for you a remnant in the earth, and to save you alive by a great deliverance.

• Genesis 45:8

  So now it wasn’t you who sent me here, but God, and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, lord of all his house, and ruler over all the land of Egypt.

• Genesis 45:9

  Hurry, and go up to my father, and tell him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says, “God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me. Don’t wait.

• Genesis 46:20

  To Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On, bore to him.

• Genesis 47:1

  Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, and said, “My father and my brothers, with their flocks, their herds, and all that they own, have come out of the land of Canaan; and behold, they are in the land of Goshen.”

• Genesis 47:2

  From among his brothers he took five men, and presented them to Pharaoh.

• Genesis 47:3

  Pharaoh said to his brothers, “What is your occupation?” They said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are shepherds, both we, and our fathers.”

• Genesis 47:4

  They said to Pharaoh, “We have come to live as foreigners in the land, for there is no pasture for your servants’ flocks. For the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. Now therefore, please let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen.”

• Genesis 47:5

  Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, “Your father and your brothers have come to you.

• Genesis 47:6

  The land of Egypt is before you. Make your father and your brothers dwell in the best of the land. Let them dwell in the land of Goshen. If you know any able men among them, then put them in charge of my livestock.”

• Genesis 47:7

  Joseph brought in Jacob, his father, and set him before Pharaoh, and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

• Genesis 47:8

  Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How many are the days of the years of your life?”

• Genesis 47:9

  Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The days of the years of my pilgrimage are one hundred thirty years. Few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.”

• Genesis 47:10

  Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from the presence of Pharaoh.

• Genesis 47:11

  Joseph placed his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

• Genesis 47:12

  Joseph nourished his father, his brothers, and all of his father’s household, with bread, according to their families.

• Genesis 47:13

  There was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.

• Genesis 47:14

  Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh’s house.

• Genesis 47:15

  When the money was all spent in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, “Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence? For our money fails.”

• Genesis 47:16

  Joseph said, “Give me your livestock; and I will give you food for your livestock, if your money is gone.”

• Genesis 47:17

  They brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for the horses, and for the flocks, and for the herds, and for the donkeys: and he fed them with bread in exchange for all their livestock for that year.

• Genesis 47:18

  When that year was ended, they came to him the second year, and said to him, “We will not hide from my lord how our money is all spent, and the herds of livestock are my lord’s. There is nothing left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands.

• Genesis 47:19

  Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh. Give us seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land won’t be desolate.”

• Genesis 47:20

  So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh, for every man of the Egyptians sold his field, because the famine was severe on them, and the land became Pharaoh’s.

• Genesis 47:21

  As for the people, he moved them to the cities from one end of the border of Egypt even to the other end of it.

• Genesis 47:22

  Only he didn’t buy the land of the priests, for the priests had a portion from Pharaoh, and ate their portion which Pharaoh gave them. That is why they didn’t sell their land.

• Genesis 47:23

  Then Joseph said to the people, “Behold, I have bought you and your land today for Pharaoh. Behold, here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land.

• Genesis 47:24

  It will happen at the harvests, that you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four parts will be your own, for seed of the field, for your food, for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.”

• Genesis 47:25

  They said, “You have saved our lives! Let us find favor in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.”

• Genesis 47:26

  Joseph made it a statute concerning the land of Egypt to this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth. Only the land of the priests alone didn’t become Pharaoh’s.

• Genesis 48:22

  Moreover I have given to you one portion above your brothers, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.”

• Genesis 50:1

  Joseph fell on his father’s face, wept on him, and kissed him.

• Genesis 50:2

  Joseph commanded his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father; and the physicians embalmed Israel.

• Genesis 50:3

  Forty days were fulfilled for him, for that is how many the days it takes to embalm. The Egyptians wept for him for seventy days.

• Genesis 50:4

  When the days of weeping for him were past, Joseph spoke to the house of Pharaoh, saying, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, please speak in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,

• Genesis 50:5

  ‘My father made me swear, saying, “Behold, I am dying. Bury me in my grave which I have dug for myself in the land of Canaan.” Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father, and I will come again.’”

• Genesis 50:6

  Pharaoh said, “Go up, and bury your father, just like he made you swear.”

• Genesis 50:7

  Joseph went up to bury his father; and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, all the elders of the land of Egypt,

• Genesis 50:8

  All the house of Joseph, his brothers, and his father’s house. Only their little ones, their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.

• Genesis 50:9

  There went up with him both chariots and horsemen. It was a very great company.

• Genesis 50:10

  They came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan, and there they lamented with a very great and severe lamentation. He mourned for his father seven days.

• Genesis 50:11

  When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, “This is a grievous mourning by the Egyptians.” Therefore its name was called Abel Mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.

• Genesis 50:12

  His sons did to him just as he commanded them,

• Genesis 50:13

  for his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field, for a possession of a burial site, from Ephron the Hittite, before Mamre.

• Genesis 50:14

  Joseph returned into Egypt — he, and his brothers, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.

• Genesis 50:22

  Joseph lived in Egypt, he, and his father’s house. Joseph lived one hundred ten years.

• Genesis 50:23
