1. And it came to be, at the end of two years’ time, that Pharaoh had a dream, and saw him standing by the river,
2. and saw seven cows coming up out of the river, fine looking and fat, and they fed amongst the reeds,
3. then saw seven other cows coming up after them out of the river, ugly and lean of flesh, and stood by the other cows on the bank of the river.
4. And the ugly and lean of flesh cows ate up the seven fine looking and fat cows. Then Pharaoh awoke.
5. And he slept and dreamed a second time and saw seven heads of grain coming up on one stalk, plump and good,
6. and saw seven lean heads, scorched by the east wind, coming up after them.
7. And the seven lean heads swallowed the seven plump and complete heads. Then Pharaoh awoke and saw it was a dream.
