28. These will be fulfilled in this order.
29. Behold, there will arrive seven years of great fertility throughout the entire land of Egypt.
30. After this, there will follow another seven years, of such great barrenness that all the former abundance will be delivered into oblivion. For the famine will consume all the land,
31. and the greatness of this destitution will cause the greatness of the abundance to be lost.
32. Now, as to what you saw the second time, it is a dream pertaining to the same thing. It is an indication of its firmness, because the word of God shall be done, and it shall be completed swiftly.
33. Now therefore, let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and place him over the land of Egypt,
34. so that he may appoint overseers throughout all the regions. And let a fifth part of the fruits, throughout the seven fertile years
35. that now have already begun to occur, be gathered into storehouses. And let all the grain be stored away, under the power of Pharaoh, and let it be kept in the cities.
