Genesis 41:2-18

2And behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fine-looking and fat-fleshed, and they fed in the reed-grass.

3And behold, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, bad-looking and lean-fleshed, and stood by the kine on the bank of the river.

4And the kine that were bad-looking and lean-fleshed ate up the seven kine that were fine-looking and fat. And Pharaoh awoke.

5And he slept and dreamed the second time; and behold, seven ears of corn grew up on one stalk, fat and good.

6And behold, seven ears, thin and parched with the east wind, sprung up after them.

7And the thin ears devoured the seven fat and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke; and behold, it was a dream.

8And it came to pass in the morning, that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the scribes of Egypt, and all the sages who were therein, and Pharaoh told them his dream; but [there was] none to interpret them to Pharaoh.

9Then spoke the chief of the cup-bearers to Pharaoh, saying, I remember mine offences this day.

10Pharaoh was wroth with his bondmen, and put me in custody into the captain of the life-guard's house, me and the chief of the bakers.

11And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each according to the interpretation of his dream.

12And there was there with us a Hebrew youth, a bondman of the captain of the life-guard, to whom we told [them], and he interpreted to us our dreams; to each he interpreted according to his dream.

13And it came to pass, just as he interpreted to us, so it came about: me has he restored to my office, and him he hanged.

14Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph; and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. And he shaved [himself], and changed his clothes, and came in to Pharaoh.

15And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have dreamt a dream, and there is none to interpret it. And I have heard say of thee, thou understandest a dream to interpret it.

16And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: 1God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.

17And Pharaoh said to Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood on the bank of the river.

18And behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fat-fleshed and of fine form, and they fed in the reed-grass.
