Genesis 41:47

Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012

For seven years there were big harvests of grain.

See the chapter Copy

Isaac planted grain and had a good harvest that same year. The LORD blessed him,

For seven years Egypt will have more than enough grain,

Joseph was thirty when the king made him governor, and he went everywhere for the king.

Joseph collected and stored up the extra grain in the cities of Egypt near the fields where it was harvested.

Let cities overflow with food and hills be covered with grain, just like Mount Lebanon. Let the people in the cities prosper like wild flowers.
