We told him our dreams, and he interpreted them for us, giving each of us the meaning of his dream.' 13 And just as he interpreted our dreams for us, so it came to be: I was restored to my position, and the other was hanged. 14 Then Pharaoh sent for Joseph, and they quickly brought him from the dungeon. After he shaved and changed his clothes, he came before Pharaoh. 15 Pharaoh said to Joseph, 'I had a dream, and no one can interpret it. But I have heard it said about you that when you hear a dream, you can interpret it.' 16 Joseph answered Pharaoh, 'It is not in me; God will give Pharaoh a favorable answer.' 17 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, 'In my dream, I was standing on the bank of the Nile.' 18 'And behold, seven cows, fat and sleek, came up out of the Nile and began grazing among the reeds.' 19 'Then seven other cows came up after them, weak, ugly, and gaunt—such as I had never seen in all the land of Egypt for ugliness.' 20 'And the thin, ugly cows devoured the seven fat cows that came up first.' 21 'But even after they had eaten them, no one could tell that they had done so; they still looked just as ugly as before. Then I woke up.' 22 'In my second dream, I saw seven ears of grain, full and good, growing on one stalk.' 23 'After them, seven other ears of grain sprouted—thin and scorched by the east wind.' 24 'The thin ears of grain swallowed up the seven good ears. I told this to the magicians, but no one could explain it to me.' 25 Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, 'The dreams of Pharaoh are one and the same. God has revealed to Pharaoh what He is about to do.' 26 'The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good ears of grain are also seven years; the dreams mean the same thing.' 27 The seven thin and ugly cows that came up after them are seven years, and the seven thin ears of grain scorched by the east wind also represent seven years of famine. 28 It is just as I told Pharaoh: God has shown Pharaoh what He is about to do. 29 Behold, seven years of great abundance are coming throughout the land of Egypt. 30 But after them, seven years of famine will arise, and all the abundance in the land of Egypt will be forgotten. The famine will ravage the land. 31 The abundance in the land will not be remembered because the famine that follows will be so severe. 32 As for the dream being repeated to Pharaoh twice, it means that the matter has been firmly decided by God, and He will carry it out soon. 33 Now let Pharaoh look for a discerning and wise man and put him in charge of the land of Egypt. 34 Let Pharaoh take action to appoint overseers in the land and collect a fifth of the harvest of Egypt during the seven years of abundance. 35 Let them gather all the food from these good years that are coming and store up grain under Pharaoh’s authority for food in the cities, and let them guard it. 36 This food will be held in reserve for the land to be used during the seven years of famine that will come upon Egypt, so that the land will not be destroyed by the famine. 37 This plan seemed good in the eyes of Pharaoh and all his officials. 38 Then Pharaoh said to his officials, 'Can we find anyone like this man, in whom is the spirit of God?' 39 So Pharaoh said to Joseph, 'Since God has made all this known to you, there is no one as discerning and wise as you.' 40 'You shall be in charge of my house, and all my people are to submit to your commands. Only with respect to the throne will I be greater than you.' 41 Pharaoh also said to Joseph, 'See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.' 42 Then Pharaoh removed his signet ring from his hand and placed it on Joseph's hand. He clothed him in garments of fine linen and put a gold chain around his neck. 43 He had Joseph ride in the chariot of his second-in-command, and they called out before him, 'Bow down!' So he was put in charge of all the land of Egypt. 44 Pharaoh also said to Joseph, 'I am Pharaoh, but without your permission, no one will lift a hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.' 45 Pharaoh gave Joseph the name Zaphenath-Paneah and gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On, to be his wife. Joseph traveled throughout the land of Egypt. 46 Joseph was thirty years old when he entered the service of Pharaoh king of Egypt. He went out from Pharaoh’s presence and traveled throughout all the land of Egypt.
