1 And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and behold, he stood by the river. | 1 וַיְהִ֕י מִקֵּ֖ץ שְׁנָתַ֣יִם יָמִ֑ים וּפַרְעֹ֣ה חֹלֵ֔ם וְהִנֵּ֖ה עֹמֵ֥ד עַל־הַיְאֹֽר׃ | |
2 And behold, there came up out of the river seven well-favored cows and fat-fleshed; and they fed in a meadow. | 2 וְהִנֵּ֣ה מִן־הַיְאֹ֗ר עֹלֹת֙ שֶׁ֣בַע פָּרֹ֔ות יְפֹ֥ות מַרְאֶ֖ה וּבְרִיאֹ֣ת בָּשָׂ֑ר וַתִּרְעֶ֖ינָה בָּאָֽחוּ׃ | |
3 And behold, seven other cows came up after them out of the river, ill-favored and lean-fleshed; and stood by the other cows upon the brink of the river. | 3 וְהִנֵּ֞ה שֶׁ֧בַע פָּרֹ֣ות אֲחֵרֹ֗ות עֹלֹ֤ות אַחֲרֵיהֶן֙ מִן־הַיְאֹ֔ר רָעֹ֥ות מַרְאֶ֖ה וְדַקֹּ֣ות בָּשָׂ֑ר וַֽתַּעֲמֹ֛דְנָה אֵ֥צֶל הַפָּרֹ֖ות עַל־שְׂפַ֥ת הַיְאֹֽר׃ | |
4 And the ill-favored and lean-fleshed cows ate up the seven well-favored and fat cows. So Pharaoh awoke. | 4 וַתֹּאכַ֣לְנָה הַפָּרֹ֗ות רָעֹ֤ות הַמַּרְאֶה֙ וְדַקֹּ֣ת הַבָּשָׂ֔ר אֵ֚ת שֶׁ֣בַע הַפָּרֹ֔ות יְפֹ֥ת הַמַּרְאֶ֖ה וְהַבְּרִיאֹ֑ת וַיִּיקַ֖ץ פַּרְעֹֽה׃ | |
5 And he slept and dreamed the second time: and behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good. | 5 וַיִּישָׁ֕ן וַֽיַּחֲלֹ֖ם שֵׁנִ֑ית וְהִנֵּ֣ה׀ שֶׁ֣בַע שִׁבֳּלִ֗ים עֹלֹ֛ות בְּקָנֶ֥ה אֶחָ֖ד בְּרִיאֹ֥ות וְטֹבֹֽות׃ | |
6 And behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them. | 6 וְהִנֵּה֙ שֶׁ֣בַע שִׁבֳּלִ֔ים דַּקֹּ֖ות וּשְׁדוּפֹ֣ת קָדִ֑ים צֹמְחֹ֖ות אַחֲרֵיהֶֽן׃ | |
7 And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream. | 7 וַתִּבְלַ֙עְנָה֙ הַשִּׁבֳּלִ֣ים הַדַּקֹּ֔ות אֵ֚ת שֶׁ֣בַע הַֽשִּׁבֳּלִ֔ים הַבְּרִיאֹ֖ות וְהַמְּלֵאֹ֑ות וַיִּיקַ֥ץ פַּרְעֹ֖ה וְהִנֵּ֥ה חֲלֹֽום׃ | |
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 to Pharaoh. | 8 וַיְהִ֤י בַבֹּ֙קֶר֙ וַתִּפָּ֣עֶם רוּחֹ֔ו וַיִּשְׁלַ֗ח וַיִּקְרָ֛א אֶת־כָּל־חַרְטֻמֵּ֥י מִצְרַ֖יִם וְאֶת־כָּל־חֲכָמֶ֑יהָ וַיְסַפֵּ֨ר פַּרְעֹ֤ה לָהֶם֙ אֶת־חֲלֹמֹ֔ו וְאֵין־פֹּותֵ֥ר אֹותָ֖ם לְפַרְעֹֽה׃ | |
9 Then spoke the chief butler to Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults this day: | 9 וַיְדַבֵּר֙ שַׂ֣ר הַמַּשְׁקִ֔ים אֶת־פַּרְעֹ֖ה לֵאמֹ֑ר אֶת־חֲטָאַ֕י אֲנִ֖י מַזְכִּ֥יר הַיֹּֽום׃ | |
10 Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me in custody in the captain of the guard's house, both me, and the chief baker: | 10 פַּרְעֹ֖ה קָצַ֣ף עַל־עֲבָדָ֑יו וַיִּתֵּ֨ן אֹתִ֜י בְּמִשְׁמַ֗ר בֵּ֚ית שַׂ֣ר הַטַּבָּחִ֔ים אֹתִ֕י וְאֵ֖ת שַׂ֥ר הָאֹפִֽים׃ | |
11 And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he: we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream. | 11 וַנַּֽחַלְמָ֥ה חֲלֹ֛ום בְּלַ֥יְלָה אֶחָ֖ד אֲנִ֣י וָה֑וּא אִ֛ישׁ כְּפִתְרֹ֥ון חֲלֹמֹ֖ו חָלָֽמְנוּ׃ | |
12 And there was there with us a young man, a 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 interpreted. | 12 וְשָׁ֨ם אִתָּ֜נוּ נַ֣עַר עִבְרִ֗י עֶ֚בֶד לְשַׂ֣ר הַטַּבָּחִ֔ים וַנְּ֨סַפֶּר־לֹ֔ו1 וַיִּפְתָּר־לָ֖נוּ אֶת־חֲלֹמֹתֵ֑ינוּ אִ֥ישׁ כַּחֲלֹמֹ֖ו פָּתָֽר׃ | |
13 And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was: me he restored to my office, and him he hanged. | 13 וַיְהִ֛י כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר פָּֽתַר־לָ֖נוּ כֵּ֣ן הָיָ֑ה אֹתִ֛י הֵשִׁ֥יב עַל־כַּנִּ֖י וְאֹתֹ֥ו תָלָֽה׃ | |
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 before Pharaoh. | 14 וַיִּשְׁלַ֤ח פַּרְעֹה֙ וַיִּקְרָ֣א אֶת־יֹוסֵ֔ף וַיְרִיצֻ֖הוּ מִן־הַבֹּ֑ור וַיְגַלַּח֙ וַיְחַלֵּ֣ף שִׂמְלֹתָ֔יו וַיָּבֹ֖א אֶל־פַּרְעֹֽה׃ | |
15 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it: and I have heard it said of thee, that thou canst understand a dream to interpret it. | 15 וַיֹּ֤אמֶר פַּרְעֹה֙ אֶל־יֹוסֵ֔ף חֲלֹ֣ום חָלַ֔מְתִּי וּפֹתֵ֖ר אֵ֣ין אֹתֹ֑ו וַאֲנִ֗י שָׁמַ֤עְתִּי עָלֶ֙יךָ֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר תִּשְׁמַ֥ע חֲלֹ֖ום לִפְתֹּ֥ר אֹתֹֽו׃ | |
16 And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace. | 16 וַיַּ֨עַן יֹוסֵ֧ף אֶת־פַּרְעֹ֛ה לֵאמֹ֖ר בִּלְעָדָ֑י אֱלֹהִ֕ים יַעֲנֶ֖ה אֶת־שְׁלֹ֥ום פַּרְעֹֽה׃ | |
17 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the bank of the river: | 17 וַיְדַבֵּ֥ר פַּרְעֹ֖ה אֶל־יֹוסֵ֑ף בַּחֲלֹמִ֕י הִנְנִ֥י עֹמֵ֖ד עַל־שְׂפַ֥ת הַיְאֹֽר׃ | |
18 And behold, there came out of the river seven cows, fat-fleshed, and well-favored; and they fed in a meadow: | 18 וְהִנֵּ֣ה מִן־הַיְאֹ֗ר עֹלֹת֙ שֶׁ֣בַע פָּרֹ֔ות בְּרִיאֹ֥ות בָּשָׂ֖ר וִיפֹ֣ת תֹּ֑אַר וַתִּרְעֶ֖ינָה בָּאָֽחוּ׃ | |
19 And behold, seven other cows came out after them, poor, and very ill-favored, and lean-fleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness: | 19 וְהִנֵּ֞ה שֶֽׁבַע־פָּרֹ֤ות אֲחֵרֹות֙ עֹלֹ֣ות אַחֲרֵיהֶ֔ן דַּלֹּ֨ות וְרָעֹ֥ות תֹּ֛אַר מְאֹ֖ד וְרַקֹּ֣ות בָּשָׂ֑ר לֹֽא־רָאִ֧יתִי כָהֵ֛נָּה בְּכָל־אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרַ֖יִם לָרֹֽעַ׃ | |
20 And the lean and the ill-favored cows ate up the first seven fat cows: | 20 וַתֹּאכַ֙לְנָה֙ הַפָּרֹ֔ות הָרַקֹּ֖ות וְהָרָעֹ֑ות אֵ֣ת שֶׁ֧בַע הַפָּרֹ֛ות הָרִאשֹׁנֹ֖ות הַבְּרִיאֹֽת׃ | |
21 And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them; but they were still ill-favored, as at the beginning. So I awoke. | 21 וַתָּבֹ֣אנָה אֶל־קִרְבֶּ֗נָה וְלֹ֤א נֹודַע֙ כִּי־בָ֣אוּ אֶל־קִרְבֶּ֔נָה וּמַרְאֵיהֶ֣ן רַ֔ע כַּאֲשֶׁ֖ר בַּתְּחִלָּ֑ה וָאִיקָֽץ׃ | |
22 And I saw in my dream, and behold, seven ears came up on one stalk, full and good: | 22 וָאֵ֖רֶא בַּחֲלֹמִ֑י וְהִנֵּ֣ה׀ שֶׁ֣בַע שִׁבֳּלִ֗ים עֹלֹ֛ת בְּקָנֶ֥ה אֶחָ֖ד מְלֵאֹ֥ת וְטֹבֹֽות׃ | |
23 And behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them: | 23 וְהִנֵּה֙ שֶׁ֣בַע שִׁבֳּלִ֔ים צְנֻמֹ֥ות דַּקֹּ֖ות שְׁדֻפֹ֣ות קָדִ֑ים צֹמְחֹ֖ות אַחֲרֵיהֶֽם׃ | |
24 And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I told this to the magicians; but there was none that could explain it to me. | 24 וַתִּבְלַ֙עְןָ֙ הָשִׁבֳּלִ֣ים1 הַדַּקֹּ֔ת אֵ֛ת שֶׁ֥בַע הַֽשִׁבֳּלִ֖ים הַטֹּבֹ֑ות וָֽאֹמַר֙ אֶל־הַֽחַרְטֻמִּ֔ים וְאֵ֥ין מַגִּ֖יד לִֽי׃ | |
25 And Joseph said to Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one; God hath showed Pharaoh what he is about to do. | 25 וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יֹוסֵף֙ אֶל־פַּרְעֹ֔ה חֲלֹ֥ום פַּרְעֹ֖ה אֶחָ֣ד ה֑וּא אֵ֣ת אֲשֶׁ֧ר הָאֱלֹהִ֛ים עֹשֶׂ֖ה הִגִּ֥יד לְפַרְעֹֽה׃ | |
26 The seven good cows are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one. | 26 שֶׁ֧בַע פָּרֹ֣ת הַטֹּבֹ֗ת שֶׁ֤בַע שָׁנִים֙ הֵ֔נָּה וְשֶׁ֤בַע הַֽשִּׁבֳּלִים֙3 הַטֹּבֹ֔ת שֶׁ֥בַע שָׁנִ֖ים הֵ֑נָּה חֲלֹ֖ום אֶחָ֥ד הֽוּא׃ | |
27 And the seven thin and ill-favored cows that came up after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted with the east wind will be seven years of famine. | 27 וְשֶׁ֣בַע הַ֠פָּרֹות הָֽרַקֹּ֨ות וְהָרָעֹ֜ת הָעֹלֹ֣ת אַחֲרֵיהֶ֗ן שֶׁ֤בַע שָׁנִים֙ הֵ֔נָּה וְשֶׁ֤בַע הַֽשִׁבֳּלִים֙ הָרֵקֹ֔ות שְׁדֻפֹ֖ות הַקָּדִ֑ים יִהְי֕וּ שֶׁ֖בַע שְׁנֵ֥י רָעָֽב׃ | |
28 This is the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh: What God is about to do he showeth to Pharaoh. | 28 ה֣וּא הַדָּבָ֔ר אֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבַּ֖רְתִּי אֶל־פַּרְעֹ֑ה אֲשֶׁ֧ר הָאֱלֹהִ֛ים עֹשֶׂ֖ה הֶרְאָ֥ה אֶת־פַּרְעֹֽה׃ | |
29 Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: | 29 הִנֵּ֛ה שֶׁ֥בַע שָׁנִ֖ים בָּאֹ֑ות שָׂבָ֥ע גָּדֹ֖ול בְּכָל־אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ | |
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; | 30 וְ֠קָמוּ שֶׁ֨בַע שְׁנֵ֤י רָעָב֙ אַחֲרֵיהֶ֔ן וְנִשְׁכַּ֥ח כָּל־הַשָּׂבָ֖ע בְּאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם וְכִלָּ֥ה הָרָעָ֖ב אֶת־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | |
31 And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of the famine following: for it will be very grievous. | 31 וְלֹֽא־יִוָּדַ֤ע הַשָּׂבָע֙ בָּאָ֔רֶץ מִפְּנֵ֛י הָרָעָ֥ב הַה֖וּא אַחֲרֵי־כֵ֑ן כִּֽי־כָבֵ֥ד ה֖וּא מְאֹֽד׃ | |
32 And for that the dream was doubled to Pharaoh twice; it is because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass. | 32 וְעַ֨ל הִשָּׁנֹ֧ות הַחֲלֹ֛ום אֶל־פַּרְעֹ֖ה פַּעֲמָ֑יִם כִּֽי־נָכֹ֤ון הַדָּבָר֙ מֵעִ֣ם הָאֱלֹהִ֔ים וּמְמַהֵ֥ר הָאֱלֹהִ֖ים לַעֲשֹׂתֹֽו׃ | |
33 Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt. | 33 וְעַתָּה֙ יֵרֶ֣א פַרְעֹ֔ה אִ֖ישׁ נָבֹ֣ון וְחָכָ֑ם וִישִׁיתֵ֖הוּ עַל־אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ | |
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. | 34 יַעֲשֶׂ֣ה פַרְעֹ֔ה וְיַפְקֵ֥ד פְּקִדִ֖ים עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ וְחִמֵּשׁ֙ אֶת־אֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרַ֔יִם בְּשֶׁ֖בַע שְׁנֵ֥י הַשָּׂבָֽע׃ | |
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. | 35 וְיִקְבְּצ֗וּ אֶת־כָּל־אֹ֙כֶל֙ הַשָּׁנִ֣ים הַטֹּבֹ֔ת הַבָּאֹ֖ת הָאֵ֑לֶּה וְיִצְבְּרוּ־בָ֞ר תַּ֧חַת יַד־פַּרְעֹ֛ה אֹ֥כֶל בֶּעָרִ֖ים וְשָׁמָֽרוּ׃ | |
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 may not perish through the famine. | 36 וְהָיָ֨ה הָאֹ֤כֶל לְפִקָּדֹון֙ לָאָ֔רֶץ לְשֶׁ֙בַע֙ שְׁנֵ֣י הָרָעָ֔ב אֲשֶׁ֥ר תִּהְיֶ֖יןָ בְּאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם וְלֹֽא־תִכָּרֵ֥ת הָאָ֖רֶץ בָּרָעָֽב׃ | |
37 And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants. | 37 וַיִּיטַ֥ב הַדָּבָ֖ר בְּעֵינֵ֣י פַרְעֹ֑ה וּבְעֵינֵ֖י כָּל־עֲבָדָֽיו׃ | |
38 And Pharaoh said to his servants, Can we find such a man as this is, a man in whom the spirit of God is? | 38 וַיֹּ֥אמֶר פַּרְעֹ֖ה אֶל־עֲבָדָ֑יו הֲנִמְצָ֣א כָזֶ֔ה אִ֕ישׁ אֲשֶׁ֛ר ר֥וּחַ אֱלֹהִ֖ים בֹּֽו׃ | |
39 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shown thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art: | 39 וַיֹּ֤אמֶר פַּרְעֹה֙ אֶל־יֹוסֵ֔ף אַחֲרֵ֨י הֹודִ֧יעַ אֱלֹהִ֛ים אֹותְךָ֖ אֶת־כָּל־זֹ֑את אֵין־נָבֹ֥ון וְחָכָ֖ם כָּמֹֽוךָ׃ | |
40 Thou shalt be over my house, and according to thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou. | 40 אַתָּה֙ תִּהְיֶ֣ה עַל־בֵּיתִ֔י וְעַל־פִּ֖יךָ יִשַּׁ֣ק כָּל־עַמִּ֑י רַ֥ק הַכִּסֵּ֖א אֶגְדַּ֥ל מִמֶּֽךָּ׃ | |
41 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt. | 41 וַיֹּ֥אמֶר פַּרְעֹ֖ה אֶל־יֹוסֵ֑ף רְאֵה֙ נָתַ֣תִּי אֹֽתְךָ֔ עַ֖ל כָּל־אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ | |
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; | 42 וַיָּ֨סַר פַּרְעֹ֤ה אֶת־טַבַּעְתֹּו֙ מֵעַ֣ל יָדֹ֔ו וַיִּתֵּ֥ן אֹתָ֖הּ עַל־יַ֣ד יֹוסֵ֑ף וַיַּלְבֵּ֤שׁ אֹתֹו֙ בִּגְדֵי־שֵׁ֔שׁ וַיָּ֛שֶׂם רְבִ֥ד הַזָּהָ֖ב עַל־צַוָּארֹֽו׃ | |
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. | 43 וַיַּרְכֵּ֣ב אֹתֹ֗ו בְּמִרְכֶּ֤בֶת הַמִּשְׁנֶה֙ אֲשֶׁר־לֹ֔ו וַיִּקְרְא֥וּ לְפָנָ֖יו אַבְרֵ֑ךְ וְנָתֹ֣ון אֹתֹ֔ו עַ֖ל כָּל־אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ | |
44 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt. | 44 וַיֹּ֧אמֶר פַּרְעֹ֛ה אֶל־יֹוסֵ֖ף אֲנִ֣י פַרְעֹ֑ה וּבִלְעָדֶ֗יךָ לֹֽא־יָרִ֨ים אִ֧ישׁ אֶת־יָדֹ֛ו וְאֶת־רַגְלֹ֖ו בְּכָל־אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ | |
45 And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnath-paaneah; and he gave him for a wife Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah priest of On: and Joseph went over all the land of Egypt. | 45 וַיִּקְרָ֨א פַרְעֹ֣ה שֵׁם־יֹוסֵף֮ צָֽפְנַ֣ת פַּעְנֵחַ֒ וַיִּתֶּן־לֹ֣ו אֶת־אָֽסְנַ֗ת בַּת־פֹּ֥וטִי פֶ֛רַע כֹּהֵ֥ן אֹ֖ן לְאִשָּׁ֑ה וַיֵּצֵ֥א יֹוסֵ֖ף עַל־אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ | |
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. | 46 וְיֹוסֵף֙ בֶּן־שְׁלֹשִׁ֣ים שָׁנָ֔ה בְּעָמְדֹ֕ו לִפְנֵ֖י פַּרְעֹ֣ה מֶֽלֶךְ־מִצְרָ֑יִם וַיֵּצֵ֤א יֹוסֵף֙ מִלִּפְנֵ֣י פַרְעֹ֔ה וַֽיַּעְבֹ֖ר1 בְּכָל־אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ | |
47 And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfulls. | 47 וַתַּ֣עַשׂ הָאָ֔רֶץ בְּשֶׁ֖בַע שְׁנֵ֣י הַשָּׂבָ֑ע לִקְמָצִֽים׃ | |
48 And he gathered 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. | 48 וַיִּקְבֹּ֞ץ אֶת־כָּל־אֹ֣כֶל׀ שֶׁ֣בַע שָׁנִ֗ים אֲשֶׁ֤ר הָיוּ֙ בְּאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרַ֔יִם וַיִּתֶּן־אֹ֖כֶל בֶּעָרִ֑ים אֹ֧כֶל שְׂדֵה־הָעִ֛יר אֲשֶׁ֥ר סְבִיבֹתֶ֖יהָ נָתַ֥ן בְּתֹוכָֽהּ׃ | |
49 And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until he left numbering; for it was without number. | 49 וַיִּצְבֹּ֨ר יֹוסֵ֥ף בָּ֛ר כְּחֹ֥ול הַיָּ֖ם הַרְבֵּ֣ה מְאֹ֑ד עַ֛ד כִּי־חָדַ֥ל לִסְפֹּ֖ר כִּי־אֵ֥ין מִסְפָּֽר׃ | |
50 And to Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came: which Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah priest of On bore to him. | 50 וּלְיֹוסֵ֤ף יֻלַּד֙ שְׁנֵ֣י בָנִ֔ים בְּטֶ֥רֶם תָּבֹ֖וא שְׁנַ֣ת הָרָעָ֑ב אֲשֶׁ֤ר יָֽלְדָה־לֹּו֙ אָֽסְנַ֔ת בַּת־פֹּ֥וטִי פֶ֖רַע כֹּהֵ֥ן אֹֽון׃ | |
51 And Joseph called the name of the first-born Manasseh: For God, said he, hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house. | 51 וַיִּקְרָ֥א יֹוסֵ֛ף אֶת־שֵׁ֥ם הַבְּכֹ֖ור מְנַשֶּׁ֑ה כִּֽי־נַשַּׁ֤נִי אֱלֹהִים֙ אֶת־כָּל־עֲמָלִ֔י וְאֵ֖ת כָּל־בֵּ֥ית אָבִֽי׃ | |
52 And the name of the second called he Ephraim: for God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction. | 52 וְאֵ֛ת שֵׁ֥ם הַשֵּׁנִ֖י קָרָ֣א אֶפְרָ֑יִם כִּֽי־הִפְרַ֥נִי אֱלֹהִ֖ים בְּאֶ֥רֶץ עָנְיִֽי׃ | |
53 And the seven years of plenteousness that was in the land of Egypt, were ended. | 53 וַתִּכְלֶ֕ינָה שֶׁ֖בַע שְׁנֵ֣י הַשָּׂבָ֑ע אֲשֶׁ֥ר הָיָ֖ה בְּאֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ | |
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. | 54 וַתְּחִלֶּ֜ינָה שֶׁ֣בַע שְׁנֵ֤י הָרָעָב֙ לָבֹ֔וא כַּאֲשֶׁ֖ר אָמַ֣ר יֹוסֵ֑ף וַיְהִ֤י רָעָב֙ בְּכָל־הָ֣אֲרָצֹ֔ות וּבְכָל־אֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרַ֖יִם הָ֥יָה לָֽחֶם׃ | |
55 And 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 saith to you, do. | 55 וַתִּרְעַב֙ כָּל־אֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרַ֔יִם וַיִּצְעַ֥ק הָעָ֛ם אֶל־פַּרְעֹ֖ה לַלָּ֑חֶם וַיֹּ֨אמֶר פַּרְעֹ֤ה לְכָל־מִצְרַ֙יִם֙ לְכ֣וּ אֶל־יֹוסֵ֔ף אֲשֶׁר־יֹאמַ֥ר לָכֶ֖ם תַּעֲשֽׂוּ׃ | |
56 And the famine was over all the face of the earth; and Joseph opened all the store-houses, and sold to the Egyptians; and the famine became severe in the land of Egypt. | 56 וְהָרָעָ֣ב הָיָ֔ה עַ֖ל כָּל־פְּנֵ֣י הָאָ֑רֶץ וַיִּפְתַּ֨ח יֹוסֵ֜ף אֶֽת־כָּל־אֲשֶׁ֤ר בָּהֶם֙ וַיִּשְׁבֹּ֣ר לְמִצְרַ֔יִם וַיֶּחֱזַ֥ק הָֽרָעָ֖ב בְּאֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ | |
57 And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph to buy corn; because the famine was distressing in all lands. | 57 וְכָל־הָאָ֙רֶץ֙ בָּ֣אוּ מִצְרַ֔יְמָה לִשְׁבֹּ֖ר אֶל־יֹוסֵ֑ף כִּֽי־חָזַ֥ק הָרָעָ֖ב בְּכָל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | |
