41:4And it came to pass the second day after he had slain Gedaliah, and no man knew it,

41:5And he slept and dreamed the second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good.

41:5Wilt thou play with him as with a bird? or wilt thou bind him for thy maidens?

41:5The isles saw it, and feared; the ends of the earth were afraid, drew near, and came.

41:5After he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of every side chamber, four cubits, round about the house on every side.

41:5That there came certain from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even fourscore men, having their beards shaven, and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves, with offerings and incense in their hand, to bring them to the house of the LORD.

41:5Mine enemies speak evil of me, When shall he die, and his name perish?

41:6And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them.

41:6And Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went: and it came to pass, as he met them, he said unto them, Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam.

41:6Shall the companions make a banquet of him? shall they part him among the merchants?

41:6And the side chambers were three, one over another, and thirty in order; and they entered into the wall which was of the house for the side chambers round about, that they might have hold, but they had not hold in the wall of the house.

41:6And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.

41:6They helped every one his neighbour; and every one said to his brother, Be of good courage.

41:7And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.

41:7Canst thou fill his skin with barbed irons? or his head with fish spears?

41:7And it was so, when they came into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah slew them, and cast them into the midst of the pit, he, and the men that were with him.

41:7All that hate me whisper together against me: against me do they devise my hurt.

41:7So the carpenter encouraged the goldsmith, and he that smootheth with the hammer him that smote the anvil, saying, It is ready for the sodering: and he fastened it with nails, that it should not be moved.

41:7And there was an enlarging, and a winding about still upward to the side chambers: for the winding about of the house went still upward round about the house: therefore the breadth of the house was still upward, and so increased from the lowest chamber to the highest by the midst.

41:8But thou, Israel, art my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend.

41:8And 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 unto Pharaoh.

41:8An evil disease, say they, cleaveth fast unto him: and now that he lieth he shall rise up no more.

41:8But ten men were found among them that said unto Ishmael, Slay us not: for we have treasures in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he forbare, and slew them not among their brethren.

41:8I saw also the height of the house round about: the foundations of the side chambers were a full reed of six great cubits.

41:8Lay thine hand upon him, remember the battle, do no more.

41:9Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me.

41:9The thickness of the wall, which was for the side chamber without, was five cubits: and that which was left was the place of the side chambers that were within.

41:9Then spake the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults this day:

41:9Now the pit wherein Ishmael had cast all the dead bodies of the men, whom he had slain because of Gedaliah, was it which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with them that were slain.

41:9Thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called thee from the chief men thereof, and said unto thee, Thou art my servant; I have chosen thee, and not cast thee away.

41:9Behold, the hope of him is in vain: shall not one be cast down even at the sight of him?

41:10Then Ishmael carried away captive all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, even the king's daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had committed to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the Ammonites.

41:10And between the chambers was the wideness of twenty cubits round about the house on every side.

41:10Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me in ward in the captain of the guard's house, both me and the chief baker:

41:10None is so fierce that dare stir him up: who then is able to stand before me?

41:10Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

41:10But thou, O LORD, be merciful unto me, and raise me up, that I may requite them.

41:11By this I know that thou favourest me, because mine enemy doth not triumph over me.

41:11And the doors of the side chambers were toward the place that was left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south: and the breadth of the place that was left was five cubits round about.

41:11And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.

41:11Who hath prevented me, that I should repay him? whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine.

41:11Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.

41:11But when Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, heard of all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done,

41:12And as for me, thou upholdest me in mine integrity, and settest me before thy face for ever.

41:12And there was there with us a young man, an 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 did interpret.

41:12Now the building that was before the separate place at the end toward the west was seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick round about, and the length thereof ninety cubits.

41:12Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought.

41:12I will not conceal his parts, nor his power, nor his comely proportion.

41:12Then they took all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are in Gibeon.

41:13And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was; me he restored unto mine office, and him he hanged.
