Genesis 41:16-24 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

16. Joseph answered: Without me, God shall give Pharao a prosperous answer.

17. So Pharao told what he had dreamed: Methought I stood upon the bank of the river,

18. And seven kine came up out of the river exceeding beautiful and full of flesh: and they grazed on green places in a marshy pasture.

19. And behold, there followed these, other seven kine, so very ill favoured and lean, that I never saw the like in the land of Egypt:

20. And the devoured and consumed the former,

21. And yet gave no mark of their being full: but were as lean and ill favoured as before. I awoke, and then fell asleep again,

22. And dreamed a dream: Seven ears of corn grew upon one stalk, full and very fair.

23. Other seven also thin and blasted, sprung of the stock:

24. And they devoured the beauty of the former: I told this dream to the conjecturers, and there is no man that can expound it.
