There has been a famine in the land now for two years; the famine will continue for five more years—neither plowing nor harvesting.

For the famine has been in the land these two years, and there are yet five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvest.

For two years now there has been famine in the land, and for the next five years there will be no plowing and reaping.

For the famine has been in the land these two years, and there will be five more years without plowing or harvesting.

This famine that has ravaged the land for two years will last five more years, and there will be neither plowing nor harvesting.

For these two years the famine has been in the midst of the land, but there will be five more years where there is no plowing or harvest.

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.
