Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1At the end of two full years, Pharaoh dreamed, and behold, he stood by the river.
1过了两年，法老做梦，梦见自己站在河边，
2Behold, seven cattle came up out of the river. They were sleek and fat, and they fed in the marsh grass.
2有七只母牛从河里上来，又美好又肥壮，在芦荻中吃 草 。
3Behold, seven other cattle came up after them out of the river, ugly and thin, and stood by the other cattle on the brink of the river.
3随后又有七只母牛从河里上来，又丑陋又干瘦，与那七只母牛一同站在河边。
4The ugly and thin cattle ate up the seven sleek and fat cattle. So Pharaoh awoke.
4这又丑陋又干瘦的七只母牛吃尽了那又美好又肥壮的七只母牛。法老就醒了。
5He slept and dreamed a second time; and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, healthy and good.
5他又睡着，第二回做梦，梦见一棵麦子长了七个穗子，又肥大又佳美，
6Behold, seven heads of grain, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
6随后又长了七个穗子，又细弱又被东风吹焦了。
7The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy and full ears. Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.
7这细弱的穗子吞了那七个又肥大又饱满的穗子。法老醒了，不料是个梦。
8In the morning, his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all of Egypt’s magicians and wise men. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh.
8到了早晨，法老心里不安，就差人召了 埃及 所有的术士和博士来；法老就把所做的梦告诉他们，却没有人能给法老圆解。
9Then the chief cup bearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, “I remember my faults today.
9那时酒政对法老说：「我今日想起我的罪来。
10Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, with the chief baker.
10从前法老恼怒臣仆，把我和膳长下在护卫长府内的监里。
11We dreamed a dream in one night, he and I. Each man dreamed according to the interpretation of his dream.
11我们二人同夜各做一梦，各梦都有讲解。
12There was with us there a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard, and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams. He interpreted to each man according to his dream.
12在那里同着我们有一个 希伯来 的少年人，是护卫长的仆人，我们告诉他，他就把我们的梦圆解，是按着各人的梦圆解的。
13As he interpreted to us, so it was. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him.”
13后来正如他给我们圆解的成就了：我官复原职，膳长被挂起来了。」
14Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. He shaved himself, changed his clothing, and came in to Pharaoh.
14法老遂即差人去召 约瑟 ，他们便急忙带他出监，他就剃头，刮脸，换衣裳，进到法老面前。
15Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have dreamed a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. I have heard it said of you, that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”
15法老对 约瑟 说：「我做了一梦，没有人能解；我听见人说，你听了梦就能解。」
16Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, “It isn’t in me. God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.”
16约瑟 回答法老说：「这不在乎我， 神必将平安的话回答法老。」
17Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, “In my dream, behold, I stood on the brink of the river;
17法老对 约瑟 说：「我梦见我站在河边，
18and behold, seven fat and sleek cattle came up out of the river. They fed in the marsh grass;
18有七只母牛从河里上来，又肥壮又美好，在芦荻中吃草。
19and behold, seven other cattle came up after them, poor and very ugly and thin, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for ugliness.
19随后又有七只母牛上来，又软弱又丑陋又干瘦，在 埃及 遍地，我没有见过这样不好的。
20The thin and ugly cattle ate up the first seven fat cattle;
20这又干瘦又丑陋的母牛吃尽了那以先的七只肥母牛，
21and when they had eaten them up, it couldn’t be known that they had eaten them, but they were still ugly, as at the beginning. So I awoke.
21吃了以后却看不出是吃了，那丑陋的样子仍旧和先前一样。我就醒了。
22I saw in my dream, and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, full and good;
22我又梦见一棵麦子，长了七个穗子，又饱满又佳美，
23and behold, seven heads of grain, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
23随后又长了七个穗子，枯槁细弱，被东风吹焦了。
24The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads of grain. I told it to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me.”
24这些细弱的穗子吞了那七个佳美的穗子。我将这梦告诉了术士，却没有人能给我解说。」
25Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God is about to do he has declared to Pharaoh.
25约瑟 对法老说：「法老的梦乃是一个。 神已将所要做的事指示法老了。
26The seven good cattle are seven years; and the seven good heads of grain are seven years. The dream is one.
26七只好母牛是七年，七个好穗子也是七年；这梦乃是一个。
27The seven thin and ugly cattle that came up after them are seven years, and also the seven empty heads of grain blasted with the east wind; they will be seven years of famine.
27那随后上来的七只又干瘦又丑陋的母牛是七年，那七个虚空、被东风吹焦的穗子也是七年，都是七个荒年。
28That is the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh. God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do.
28这就是我对法老所说， 神已将所要做的事显明给法老了。
29Behold, seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt are coming.
29埃及 遍地必来七个大丰年，
30Seven years of famine will arise after them, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land,
30随后又要来七个荒年，甚至在 埃及 地都忘了先前的丰收，全地必被饥荒所灭。
31and the plenty will not be known in the land by reason of that famine which follows; for it will be very grievous.
31因那以后的饥荒甚大，便不觉得先前的丰收了。
32The dream was doubled to Pharaoh, because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
32至于法老两回做梦，是因 神命定这事，而且必速速成就。
33“Now therefore let Pharaoh look for a discreet and wise man, and set him over the land of Egypt.
33所以，法老当拣选一个有聪明有智慧的人，派他治理 埃及 地。
34Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint overseers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt’s produce in the seven plenteous years.
34法老当这样行，又派官员管理这地。当七个丰年的时候，征收 埃及 地的五分之一，
35Let them gather all the food of these good years that come, and store grain under the hand of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it.
35叫他们把将来丰年一切的粮食聚敛起来，积蓄五谷，收存在各城里做食物，归于法老的手下。
36The food will be to supply the land against the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt; so that the land will not perish through the famine.”
36所积蓄的粮食可以防备 埃及 地将来的七个荒年，免得这地被饥荒所灭。」
37The thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
37法老和他一切臣仆都以这事为妙。
38Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?”
38法老对臣仆说：「像这样的人，有 神的灵在他里头，我们岂能找得着呢？」
39Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Because God has shown you all of this, there is no one so discreet and wise as you.
39法老对 约瑟 说：「 神既将这事都指示你，可见没有人像你这样有聪明有智慧。
40You shall be over my house. All my people will be ruled according to your word. Only in the throne I will be greater than you.”
40你可以掌管我的家；我的民都必听从你的话。惟独在宝座上我比你大。」
41Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Behold, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.”
41法老又对 约瑟 说：「我派你治理 埃及 全地。」
42Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand, and put it on Joseph’s hand, and arrayed him in robes of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck.
42法老就摘下手上打印的戒指，戴在 约瑟 的手上，给他穿上细麻衣，把金链戴在他的颈项上，
43He made him ride in the second chariot which he had. They cried before him, “Bow the knee!” He set him over all the land of Egypt.
43又叫 约瑟 坐他的副车，喝道的在前呼叫说：「跪下。」这样，法老派他治理 埃及 全地。
44Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh. Without you, no man shall lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.”
44法老对 约瑟 说：「我是法老，在 埃及 全地，若没有你的命令，不许人擅自办事。」
45Pharaoh called Joseph’s name Zaphenath-Paneah. He gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On as a wife. Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.
45法老赐名给 约瑟 ，叫 撒发那忒·巴内亚 ，又将 安 城的祭司 波提非拉 的女儿 亚西纳 给他为妻。 约瑟 就出去巡行 埃及 地。
46Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.
46约瑟 见 埃及 王法老的时候年三十岁。他从法老面前出去，遍行 埃及 全地。
47In the seven plenteous years the earth produced abundantly.
47七个丰年之内，地的出产极丰极盛，
48He gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities. He stored food in each city from the fields around that city.
48约瑟 聚敛 埃及 地七个丰年一切的粮食，把粮食积存在各城里；各城周围田地的粮食都积存在本城里。
49Joseph laid up grain as the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting, for it was without number.
49约瑟 积蓄五谷甚多，如同海边的沙，无法计算，因为谷不可胜数。
50To Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bore to him.
50荒年未到以前， 安 城的祭司 波提非拉 的女儿 亚西纳 给 约瑟 生了两个儿子。
51Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh, “For”, he said, “God has made me forget all my toil, and all my father’s house.”
51约瑟 给长子起名叫 玛拿西 ，因为 他说 ：「 神使我忘了一切的困苦和我父的全家。」
52The name of the second, he called Ephraim: “For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
52他给次子起名叫 以法莲 ，因为 他说 ：「 神使我在受苦的地方昌盛。」
53The seven years of plenty, that were in the land of Egypt, came to an end.
53埃及 地的七个丰年一完，
54The seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
54七个荒年就来了。正如 约瑟 所说的，各地都有饥荒；惟独 埃及 全地有粮食。
55When 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 says to you, do.”
55及至 埃及 全地有了饥荒，众民向法老哀求粮食，法老对他们说：「你们往 约瑟 那里去，凡他所说的，你们都要做。」
56The famine was over all the surface of the earth. Joseph opened all the store houses, and sold to the Egyptians. The famine was severe in the land of Egypt.
56当时饥荒遍满天下， 约瑟 开了各处的仓，粜粮给 埃及 人；在 埃及 地饥荒甚大。
57All countries came into Egypt, to Joseph, to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all the earth.
57各地的人都往 埃及 去，到 约瑟 那里籴粮，因为天下的饥荒甚大。
