Genesis 41:3

41:3 Then seven bad-looking, thin cows were coming up after them from the Nile, and they stood beside the other cows at the edge of the river.

Genesis 43:15

43:15 So the men took these gifts, and they took double the money with them, along with Benjamin. Then they hurried down to Egypt and stood before Joseph.


tn Heb “And look, seven other cows were coming up after them from the Nile, bad of appearance and thin of flesh.”

tn Heb “the Nile.” This has been replaced by “the river” in the translation for stylistic reasons.

tn Heb “they arose and went down to Egypt.” The first verb has an adverbial function and emphasizes that they departed right away.
