Genesis 41:1-9 ▼

1 And two yeeres after, Pharaoh also dreamed, and beholde, he stoode by a riuer,

2 And loe, there came out of the riuer seuen goodly kine and fatfleshed, and they fedde in a medowe:

3 And loe, seuen other kine came vp after the out of the riuer, euill fauoured & leane fleshed, and stoode by the other kine vpon the brinke of the riuer.

4 And the euilfauoured and leane fleshed kine did eate vp the seuen welfauoured and fatte kine: so Pharaoh awoke.

5 Againe he slept, and dreamed the second time: and beholde, seuen eares of corne grewe vpon one stalke, ranke and goodly.

6 And loe, seuen thinne eares, and blasted with the east winde, sprang vp after them:

7 And the thinne eares deuoured the seuen ranke and full eares. then Pharaoh awaked, and loe, it was a dreame.

8 Nowe when the morning came, his spirit was troubled: therefore he sent and called all the soothsayers of Egypt, and all the wise men thereof, and Pharaoh tolde them his dreames: but none coulde interprete them to Pharaoh.

9 Then spake the chiefe butler vnto Pharaoh, saying, I call to minde my faultes this day.
