For these two years [hath] the famine [been] in the land: and yet [there are] five years, in the which [there shall] neither [be] earing nor harvest.
For these two years {H8141} hath the famine {H7458} been in {H7130} the land {H776}: and yet there are five {H2568} years {H8141}, in the which there shall neither {H369} be earing {H2758} nor harvest {H7105}.
The famine has been over the land for the last two years, and for yet another five years there will be neither plowing nor harvest.
For the famine has covered the land these two years, and there will be five more years without plowing or harvesting.
For these two years hath the famine been in the land: and there are yet five years, in which there shall be neither plowing nor harvest.
