And Pharaoh will say to Joseph, I dreamed a dream, and there is none interpreting it, and I heard concerning thee, saying, Thou wilt hear a dream to interpret it And Joseph will answer Pharaoh, saying, Not in me: God. will answer Pharaoh with peace. And Pharaoh will say to Joseph, In my dream I stood by the lip of the river And behold, from the river came up seven heifers, fat of flesh and fair of form, and they will feed in marsh grass. And behold, seven other heifers coming up after them, poor and evil exceedingly, in form, and thin in flesh I saw not like them in all the land of Egypt for evil. And the heifers thin and evil will devour the first seven fat heifers. And they shall come into their belly, and they shall not know that they came into their belly; and evil of form as that in the beginning. And I shall awake. And I shall see in my dream, and behold, seven ears coming up in one stalk, full and good. And behold, seven ears dry, thin, blasted by the east, springing up after them. And the thin ears will swallow the seven good ears: and I spake to the sacred scribes, and there was none announcing to me. And Joseph will say to Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh, one: this which he did; God announces to Pharaoh. The seven good heifers, they are seven years; and the seven good ears, they are seven years: this dream one. And the seven heifers, thin and evil, coming up after them, they are seven years; and the seven ears, thin, blasted by the east, shall be seven years of famine. This the word which I spake to Pharaoh: what God did, he showed Pharaoh. Behold, seven years coming of great plenty, in all the land of Egypt And seven years of famine arose after them, and all the plenty was forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine consumed the land. And the plenty shall not be known in the land on account of the famine after this; for it shall be exceedingly heavy. And because of the repeating of Pharaoh's dream twice, that the word was prepared from God; and God is hastening to do it And now will Pharaoh look out a man discerning and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt And will Pharaoh make and appoint overseers over the land, exacting a fifth part of the land of Egypt, in the seven years of plenty. And they shall gather all the food of these good years coming, and they shall heap up the grain under the hand of Pharaoh, and they shall watch food in the cities. And the food was for a deposit to the land, for the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; and the land shall not be cut off in the famine.

And he will gather all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and he will give the food in the cities: the food of the field of the city which round about her, he gave in the midst of her. And Joseph will gather grain as the sand of the sea, exceedingly much that he ceased to number; for there was no numbering. And to Joseph will be born two sons before the years of the famine will come: which Asenath, daughter of Poti-Pherah, priest of Ain, bare to him. And Joseph will call the name of the first-born, Manasseh; for God made me forget all my toils and all my father's house. And the name of the second, he called Ephraim; for God caused me to flourish in the land of my affliction. And the seven years of plenty will be completed, which was in the land of Egypt And the seven years of famine will begin to come, according to that Joseph said: and the famine will be in all the lands; and in all the land of Egypt was bread. And all the land of Egypt shall hunger, and the people will cry out to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh will say to all Egypt, Go to Joseph; what he shall say to you, ye shall do.
