Genesis 41:2-7

2Suddenly, seven nice-looking, well-fed cows came up from the river and began to graze among the reeds.

3Seven other cows came up from the river behind them. These cows were sickly and skinny. They stood behind the first seven cows on the riverbank.

4The cows that were sickly and skinny ate the seven nice-looking, well-fed cows. Then Pharaoh woke up.

5He fell asleep again and had a second dream. Seven good, healthy heads of grain were growing on a single stalk.

6Seven other heads of grain, thin and scorched by the east wind, sprouted behind them.

7The thin heads of grain swallowed the seven full, healthy heads. Then Pharaoh woke up. It was only a dream.
