Genesis 41:30

But seven years of famine will occur ¹  after them, and all the abundance will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will devastate ²  the land.

Ge 41:21,51; Ge 41:27,54; Ge 47:13; 2Sa 24:13; 1Ki 17:1; 2Ki 8:1; Ps 105:16; Pr 31:7; Isa 65:16; Lu 4:25; Jas 5:17

¹ tn The perfect with the vav consecutive continues the time frame of the preceding participle, which has an imminent future nuance here.

² tn The Hebrew verb כָּלָה (kalah) in the Piel stem means “to finish, to destroy, to bring an end to.” The severity of the famine will ruin the land of Egypt.
