Genesis 41:2-7

2And lo, there came up out of the Nile seven [healthy] cows, sleek and handsome and fat; and they grazed in the reed grass [in a marshy pasture].

3Then behold, seven other cows came up after them out of the Nile, ugly and gaunt and raw-boned, and stood by the fat cows on the bank of the Nile.

4Then the ugly and gaunt and raw-boned cows ate up the seven sleek and fat cows. Then Pharaoh awoke.

5Then he fell asleep and dreamed a second time; and behold, seven ears of grain came up on a single stalk, plump and good.

6Then behold, seven ears [of grain], thin and dried up by the east wind, sprouted after them.

7Then the thin ears swallowed the seven plump and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and it was a dream.
