Genesis 41:1-8 ▼

1 And it came to pass at the end of two years of days that Pharaoh was dreaming, and behold, he was standing by the River.

2 And behold, out of the River came up seven cows, beautiful of appearance and fat of flesh, and they grazed among the reeds.

3 And behold, seven other cows came up after them out of the River, ugly of appearance and thin of flesh, and they stood beside the cows on the edge of the River.

4 And the cows that were ugly of appearance and thin of flesh ate the seven cows beautiful of appearance and fat. And Pharaoh awoke.

5 And he slept and dreamed a second time, and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, fat and good.

6 And behold, seven heads of grain, thin and scorched by the east wind, were sprouting after them.

7 And the thin heads of grain swallowed the seven heads fat and full. And Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.

8 And 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 its wise men. And Pharaoh told them his dreams, and there was no one interpreting them to Pharaoh.
