Genesis 41:47

King James Version (1769) with Strongs Numbers and Morphology
And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river.
2
And, behold, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, ill favoured and leanfleshed; and stood by the other kine upon the brink of the river.
4
And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good.
6
And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.
8
Then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults this day:
10
And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.
12
And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was; me he restored unto mine office, and him he hanged.
14
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it: and I have heard say of thee, that thou canst understand a dream to interpret it.
16
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the bank of the river:
18
And, behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor and very ill favoured and leanfleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness:
20
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.
22
And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them:
24
And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath shewed Pharaoh what he is about to do.
26
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.
28
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:
30
And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following; for it shall be very grievous.
32
Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
34
And let them gather all the food of those good years that come, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the cities.
37
And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
39
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art:
41
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.
43
And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt.
45
And Pharaoh called Joseph’s name Zaphnath–paaneah; and he gave him to wife Asenath the daughter of Poti–pherah priest of On. And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.
47
And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfuls.
49
And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until he left numbering; for it was without number.
51
And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh: For God, said he, hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father’s house.
53
And the seven years of plenteousness, that was in the land of Egypt, were ended.
55
And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread: and Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians, Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you, do.
56
And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy corn; because that the famine was so sore in all lands.
