法老连作两个梦
41 过了两年，法老作了一个梦，梦见自己站在河边。 2 有七头母牛从河里上来，又健美又肥壮，在芦苇中吃草。 3 接着，又有另外七头母牛从河里上来，又丑陋又瘦弱，站在岸上其他母牛旁边。 4 这些丑陋瘦弱的母牛，竟把那七只健美肥壮的母牛吃掉，法老就醒了。 5 他又睡着，作了第二个梦，梦见一根麦茎，长出七个麦穗，又肥壮又美好。 6 接着，又长出七个麦穗，又干瘦又被东风吹焦了。 7 这些干瘦的麦穗，竟把那七个又肥壮又饱满的麦穗吞下去，法老就醒了，原来是一个梦。 8 到了早晨，法老心里烦乱，就派人去把埃及所有的术士和智慧人都召了来；法老把自己的梦告诉他们，但是没有人能替法老解梦。
酒政推荐约瑟
9 那时酒政告诉法老说：“我今日想起了我的过错。 10 从前法老恼怒臣仆，把我和膳长关在军长府的监房里。 11 我们二人在同一夜都作了梦；我们的梦各有不同的解释。 12 在那里有一个希伯来的少年人与我们在一起，他是军长的仆人，我们把梦告诉了他，他就替我们解梦，各人的梦有不同的解释。 13 结果，事情都照着他给我们的解释实现了：我恢复了原职，膳长却被挂起来。”
14 法老于是派人去召约瑟。他们就急忙把约瑟从监里带出来。他剃了头、刮了脸、换了衣服，就进去见法老。 15 法老对约瑟说：“我作了一个梦，没有人能够解释。我听见人说，你听了梦，就能解释。” 16 约瑟回答法老，说：“解梦不在于我，但 神必给法老一个吉祥的解答。” 17 法老告诉约瑟：“在梦里我看见我站在河边。 18 有七头母牛从河里上来，又肥壮又健美，在芦苇中吃草。 19 接着，又有另外七头母牛上来，又软弱又消瘦又十分丑陋，在埃及全地我没有见过这样丑陋的牛。 20 这又消瘦又丑陋的母牛，竟把先前七头肥壮的母牛吃掉。 21 牠们吃了以后，却看不出牠们是吃掉了肥牛，因为牠们丑陋的样子仍是与先前一样。我就醒了。 22 在梦里我又看见一根麦茎，长出七个麦穗，又饱满又美好。 23 接着，又长出了七个麦穗，又枯干又干瘦又被东风吹焦了。 24 这些干瘦的麦穗，竟把那七个美好的麦穗吞下去。我把梦告诉了术士，但是没有人能替我解答。”
约瑟为法老解梦
25 约瑟对法老说：“法老的梦都是同一个意思， 神已经把所要作的事告诉法老了。 26 七头美好的母牛是七年，七个美好的麦穗也是七年；两个梦都是同一个意思。 27 那接着上来的七头又消瘦又丑陋的母牛是七年，那七个不结实、被东风吹焦了的麦穗也是七年，都是七年饥荒。 28 这就是我对法老所说： 神要作的事，他已经向法老显明了。 29 看哪，埃及全地必有七年大丰收。 30 接着又必有七年饥荒；甚至埃及地所有的丰收都被人忘记了，饥荒必把这地毁灭。 31 因为接着而来的饥荒太严重了，使人不觉得这地有过丰收。 32 至于法老两次作梦，是因为 神已经命定这事，并且要快快地实行。 33 因此，法老要找一个有见识有智慧的人，派他管理埃及地。 34 法老要这样行，在国中指派官员，当七年丰收的时候，征收埃及地出产的五分之一。 35 又叫他们把将要来的七个丰年的粮食收集起来，积蓄五谷归在法老的手下，收在各城里作粮食。 36 这些粮食要储存起来，可以应付将来埃及地的七年饥荒，免得这地被饥荒所灭。”
约瑟在埃及居高位
37 法老和他的臣仆，都赞同这件事。 38 于是法老对臣仆说：“像这样的人，有 神的灵在他里面，我们怎能找得着呢？” 39 法老对约瑟说：“ 神既然把这事指示了你，就再没有人像你这样有见识有智慧了。 40 你可以掌管我的家，我的人民都要听从你的话；只有在王位上我比你大。” 41 法老又对约瑟说：“你看，我任命你治理埃及全地。” 42 于是，法老脱下他手上打印的戒指，戴在约瑟的手上；给他穿上细麻的衣服，把金颈炼挂在他的颈项上； 43 又叫约瑟坐在他的副车里，有人在他前面喊着：“跪下。”这样，法老任命了约瑟治理埃及全地。 44 法老对约瑟说：“我是法老，但在埃及全地，如果没有你的许可，没有人可以随意作事。” 45 法老给约瑟起名叫撒发那忒．巴内亚，又把安城的祭司波提非拉的女儿亚西纳，给约瑟为妻。约瑟出去巡行埃及全地。
46 约瑟侍立在埃及王法老面前的时候，年三十岁。约瑟从法老面前出来，遍行埃及全地。 47 在七个丰年的时候，地里的出产非常丰盛。 48 约瑟把埃及七个丰年的一切粮食都收集起来，把粮食存放在城中；各城周围田地所出的粮食，也存放在各城中。 49 约瑟积蓄了极多的五谷，好象海沙那样多，甚至他不再记下数量，因为实在无法计算。
50 在荒年还没有来到以前，约瑟生了两个儿子，是安城的祭司波提非拉的女儿亚西纳给约瑟生的。 51 约瑟给长子起名叫玛拿西，因为他说：“ 神使我忘记我所有的困苦，以及我父的全家。” 52 他给次子起名叫以法莲，因为他说：“ 神使我在受苦之地繁盛起来。”
丰年与荒年
53 埃及地的七年丰收一结束， 54 七年饥荒就随着来了，正像约瑟所说的一样。各地都有饥荒，只有埃及全地仍有粮食， 55 等到埃及全地也要挨饿的时候，人民就向法老求粮。法老对所有的埃及人说：“你们到约瑟那里去，他吩咐你们甚么，你们就作甚么。” 56 当时饥荒遍及全国，约瑟就开了所有的粮仓，把粮食卖给埃及人，因为埃及地的饥荒非常严重。 57 各地的人都到埃及去，向约瑟买粮，因为各地的饥荒都非常严重。

約瑟為法老解夢
41 兩年後，法老做了個夢，夢見自己站在尼羅河邊， 2 有七頭肥美、健壯的母牛從河裡上來，在蘆葦叢中吃草。 3 隨後又有七頭醜陋、瘦弱的母牛從河裡上來，與那七頭母牛一同站在河邊。 4 後來，七頭醜陋、瘦弱的母牛吃掉了七頭肥美、健壯的母牛。這時，法老醒了過來。
5 之後，他又睡著了，又做了個夢。他夢見一株麥子上長了七個飽滿的穗子。 6 後來這株麥子上面又長了七個乾癟的穗子，它們被東風吹乾了。 7 七個乾癟的穗子吞食了七個飽滿的穗子。法老醒過來，原來是一場夢。
8 早上法老心中不安，就派人召來埃及所有的術士和博學之士，把夢告訴他們，可是沒有一個人能為他解夢。
9 後來，侍酒總管對法老說：「我今天才想起我的罪過。 10 我從前和膳食總管惹王生氣，被王囚禁在護衛長府內的牢裡。 11 一天晚上，我倆都做了夢。 12 當時有一個希伯來青年跟我們一起被囚在牢裡，他是護衛長的僕人。我們把夢告訴他，他就分別為我們解夢。 13 後來，他為我們解的夢都應驗了，我恢復了原職，膳食總管被掛在木頭上處死了。」
14 於是，法老派人去召約瑟，他們急忙釋放約瑟。約瑟剃頭刮臉，更換衣服，去見法老。 15 法老對約瑟說：「我做了一個夢，沒有人能為我解夢。我聽說你能解夢。」 16 約瑟回答說：「我自己不會解夢，但上帝卻能給王圓滿的解釋。」
17 法老對約瑟說：「我夢見自己站在尼羅河邊， 18 有七頭肥美、健壯的母牛從河裡上來，在蘆葦叢中吃草。 19 隨後又有七頭醜陋、瘦弱的母牛從河裡上來，我在埃及從來沒有見過有這麼醜陋的牛。 20 這些醜陋、瘦弱的母牛吃掉先前的七頭肥母牛。 21 可是，牠們吃了以後卻仍然像以前那麼醜陋。這時，我就醒了。 22 後來我又夢見一株麥子，上面長了七個飽滿的穗子， 23 接著又長出七個乾癟的穗子， 24 這些乾癟的穗子吞了那七個飽滿的穗子。我把夢告訴了術士，卻沒有人能為我解夢。」
25 約瑟對法老說：「王的夢都是同一個意思，上帝已經藉著夢把祂將要做的事指示王了。 26 七頭肥美的母牛和七個飽滿的穗子都代表七年，是同樣的意思。 27 七頭瘦弱、醜陋的母牛和七個乾癟、被東風吹乾的穗子也代表七年，是七年饑荒。 28 正如我剛才說的，上帝已經把祂將要做的事向王顯明了。 29 埃及全境很快會有七年大豐收， 30 隨後是七年饑荒肆虐全國，之前的豐收將被忘記。 31 饑荒將非常嚴重，之前的豐收將蕩然無存。 32 王的夢出現了兩次，表示上帝的心意已定，上帝必很快成就這事。 33 王應該選一個精明的人，派他治理埃及。 34 王也應該在各地委派官員，在七年豐收期內徵收全國出產的五分之一， 35 把在豐年收集的糧食儲存在各城，歸王管理。 36 這些糧食要留到七年饑荒時用，免得這片土地被饑荒毀滅。」
約瑟做埃及宰相
37 法老和他所有的臣僕都贊同約瑟的建議。 38 法老對臣僕說：「我們哪裡找像這樣有上帝的靈同在的人呢？」 39 法老對約瑟說：「上帝既然把夢的意思指示給你，可見沒人有你這樣的見識和智慧。 40 我要派你管理我家，我的人民都要遵從你的命令，只有我權力比你大。」 41 法老又說：「我現在派你治理埃及全國。」 42 於是，法老摘下手上用來蓋印的戒指，戴在約瑟的手上，給他穿上細麻袍，把金鏈戴在他頸上， 43 讓他坐在自己的第二輛御車上，並有人在御車前高呼：「跪下！」這樣，法老派約瑟治理整個埃及。 44 法老對約瑟說：「我是法老，但沒有你的命令，埃及的任何人都不得擅自行事。」 45 法老賜給約瑟一個名字叫撒發那忒·巴內亞，又把安城祭司波提非拉的女兒亞西納賜給他為妻。約瑟巡視了整個埃及。
46 約瑟三十歲開始為法老效勞，他離開法老去巡視埃及各地。 47 七個豐年之內，埃及糧食大豐收， 48 約瑟收集七個豐年出產的所有糧食，儲藏進各城，每一座城附近出產的糧食都存放在本城。 49 約瑟積存了大量五穀，多如海沙，不可勝數。
50 荒年到來前，安城祭司波提非拉的女兒亞西納給約瑟生了兩個兒子。 51 約瑟給長子取名叫瑪拿西，因為他說：「上帝使我忘記一切的困苦和我父親家。」 52 約瑟給次子取名叫以法蓮，因為他說：「上帝使我在受苦之地昌盛。」
53 七個豐年結束後， 54 七個荒年接踵而至，正如約瑟所言。各地都有饑荒，只有埃及全國有糧食。 55 後來，埃及全國也鬧饑荒，百姓就向法老求糧，法老對他們說：「你們去找約瑟吧，要照他的吩咐做。」
56 饑荒蔓延到整個埃及時，約瑟便開倉賣糧給埃及人。那時，埃及的饑荒非常嚴重。 57 各國的人都到埃及來向約瑟買糧，因為天下到處都是大饑荒。

Pharaoh’s Dreams
41 When two full years had passed, Pharaoh had a dream:(A) He was standing by the Nile,(B) 2 when out of the river there came up seven cows, sleek and fat,(C) and they grazed among the reeds.(D) 3 After them, seven other cows, ugly and gaunt, came up out of the Nile and stood beside those on the riverbank. 4 And the cows that were ugly and gaunt ate up the seven sleek, fat cows. Then Pharaoh woke up.(E)
5 He fell asleep again and had a second dream: Seven heads of grain,(F) healthy and good, were growing on a single stalk. 6 After them, seven other heads of grain sprouted—thin and scorched by the east wind.(G) 7 The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy, full heads. Then Pharaoh woke up;(H) it had been a dream.
8 In the morning his mind was troubled,(I) so he sent for all the magicians(J) and wise men of Egypt. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but no one could interpret them for him.(K)
9 Then the chief cupbearer said to Pharaoh, “Today I am reminded of my shortcomings.(L) 10 Pharaoh was once angry with his servants,(M) and he imprisoned me and the chief baker in the house of the captain of the guard.(N) 11 Each of us had a dream the same night, and each dream had a meaning of its own.(O) 12 Now a young Hebrew(P) was there with us, a servant of the captain of the guard.(Q) We told him our dreams, and he interpreted them for us, giving each man the interpretation of his dream.(R) 13 And things turned out exactly as he interpreted them to us: I was restored to my position, and the other man was impaled.(S)”
14 So Pharaoh sent for Joseph, and he was quickly brought from the dungeon.(T) When he had shaved(U) and changed his clothes,(V) he came before Pharaoh.
15 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I had a dream, and no one can interpret it.(W) But I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”(X)
16 “I cannot do it,” Joseph replied to Pharaoh, “but God will give Pharaoh the answer he desires.”(Y)
17 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “In my dream I was standing on the bank of the Nile,(Z) 18 when out of the river there came up seven cows, fat and sleek, and they grazed among the reeds.(AA) 19 After them, seven other cows came up—scrawny and very ugly and lean. I had never seen such ugly cows in all the land of Egypt. 20 The lean, ugly cows ate up the seven fat cows that came up first. 21 But even after they ate them, no one could tell that they had done so; they looked just as ugly as before. Then I woke up.
22 “In my dream I saw seven heads of grain, full and good, growing on a single stalk. 23 After them, seven other heads sprouted—withered and thin and scorched by the east wind. 24 The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads. I told this to the magicians, but none of them could explain it to me.(AB)”
25 Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dreams of Pharaoh are one and the same.(AC) God has revealed to Pharaoh what he is about to do.(AD) 26 The seven good cows(AE) are seven years, and the seven good heads of grain are seven years; it is one and the same dream. 27 The seven lean, ugly cows that came up afterward are seven years, and so are the seven worthless heads of grain scorched by the east wind: They are seven years of famine.(AF)
28 “It is just as I said to Pharaoh: God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do.(AG) 29 Seven years of great abundance(AH) are coming throughout the land of Egypt, 30 but seven years of famine(AI) will follow them. Then all the abundance in Egypt will be forgotten, and the famine will ravage the land.(AJ) 31 The abundance in the land will not be remembered, because the famine that follows it will be so severe. 32 The reason the dream was given to Pharaoh in two forms is that the matter has been firmly decided(AK) by God, and God will do it soon.(AL)
33 “And now let Pharaoh look for a discerning and wise man(AM) and put him in charge of the land of Egypt.(AN) 34 Let Pharaoh appoint commissioners(AO) over the land to take a fifth(AP) of the harvest of Egypt during the seven years of abundance.(AQ) 35 They should collect all the food of these good years that are coming and store up the grain under the authority of Pharaoh, to be kept in the cities for food.(AR) 36 This food should be held in reserve for the country, to be used during the seven years of famine that will come upon Egypt,(AS) so that the country may not be ruined by the famine.”
37 The plan seemed good to Pharaoh and to all his officials.(AT) 38 So Pharaoh asked them, “Can we find anyone like this man, one in whom is the spirit of God[a]?”(AU)
39 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has made all this known to you,(AV) there is no one so discerning and wise as you.(AW) 40 You shall be in charge of my palace,(AX) and all my people are to submit to your orders.(AY) Only with respect to the throne will I be greater than you.(AZ)”
Joseph in Charge of Egypt
41 So Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I hereby put you in charge of the whole land of Egypt.”(BA) 42 Then Pharaoh took his signet ring(BB) from his finger and put it on Joseph’s finger. He dressed him in robes(BC) of fine linen(BD) and put a gold chain around his neck.(BE) 43 He had him ride in a chariot(BF) as his second-in-command,[b](BG) and people shouted before him, “Make way[c]!”(BH) Thus he put him in charge of the whole land of Egypt.(BI)
44 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh, but without your word no one will lift hand or foot in all Egypt.”(BJ) 45 Pharaoh gave Joseph(BK) the name Zaphenath-Paneah and gave him Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest(BL) of On,[d](BM) to be his wife.(BN) And Joseph went throughout the land of Egypt.
46 Joseph was thirty years old(BO) when he entered the service(BP) of Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from Pharaoh’s presence and traveled throughout Egypt. 47 During the seven years of abundance(BQ) the land produced plentifully. 48 Joseph collected all the food produced in those seven years of abundance in Egypt and stored it in the cities.(BR) In each city he put the food grown in the fields surrounding it. 49 Joseph stored up huge quantities of grain, like the sand of the sea;(BS) it was so much that he stopped keeping records because it was beyond measure.
50 Before the years of famine came, two sons were born to Joseph by Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest of On.(BT) 51 Joseph named his firstborn(BU) Manasseh[e](BV) and said, “It is because God has made me forget all my trouble and all my father’s household.” 52 The second son he named Ephraim[f](BW) and said, “It is because God has made me fruitful(BX) in the land of my suffering.”
53 The seven years of abundance in Egypt came to an end, 54 and the seven years of famine(BY) began,(BZ) just as Joseph had said. There was famine in all the other lands, but in the whole land of Egypt there was food. 55 When all Egypt began to feel the famine,(CA) the people cried to Pharaoh for food. Then Pharaoh told all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph and do what he tells you.”(CB)
56 When the famine had spread over the whole country, Joseph opened all the storehouses and sold grain to the Egyptians,(CC) for the famine(CD) was severe throughout Egypt.(CE) 57 And all the world came to Egypt to buy grain from Joseph,(CF) because the famine was severe everywhere.(CG)

41 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, there came up out of the river seven well favoured kine and fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow.
3 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 the ill favoured and leanfleshed kine did eat up the seven well favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke.
5 And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good.
6 And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them.
7 And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.
8 And it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt, and all the wise men thereof: and Pharaoh told them his dream; but there was none that could interpret them unto Pharaoh.
9 Then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults this day:
10 Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me in ward in the captain of the guard's house, both me and the chief baker:
11 And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.
12 And there was there with us a young man, an Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard; and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams; to each man according to his dream he did interpret.
13 And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was; me he restored unto mine office, and him he hanged.
14 Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon: and he shaved himself, and changed his raiment, and came in unto Pharaoh.
15 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 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:
18 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fatfleshed and well favoured; and they fed in a meadow:
19 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 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.
22 And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good:
23 And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them:
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.
25 And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath shewed Pharaoh what he is about to do.
26 The seven good kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one.
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.
28 This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he sheweth unto Pharaoh.
29 Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:
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;
31 And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following; for it shall be very grievous.
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.
33 Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
34 Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years.
35 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.
36 And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not through the famine.
37 And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
38 And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is?
39 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art:
40 Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou.
41 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.
42 And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck;
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.
44 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.
45 And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnathpaaneah; and he gave him to wife Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On. And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.
46 And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.
47 And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfuls.
48 And 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 round about every city, laid he up in the same.
49 And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until he left numbering; for it was without number.
50 And unto Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, which Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bare unto him.
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.
52 And the name of the second called he Ephraim: For God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.
53 And the seven years of plenteousness, that was in the land of Egypt, were ended.
54 And the seven years of dearth began to come, according as Joseph had said: and the dearth was in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
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 the famine was over all the face of the earth: and Joseph opened all the storehouses, and sold unto the Egyptians; and the famine waxed sore in the land of Egypt.
57 And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy corn; because that the famine was so sore in all lands.
