2. and lo, from the River coming up are seven kine, of fair appearance, and fat [in] flesh, and they feed among the reeds;
3. and lo, seven other kine are coming up after them out of the River, of bad appearance, and lean [in] flesh, and they stand near the kine on the edge of the River,
4. and the kine of bad appearance and lean [in] flesh eat up the seven kine of fair appearance, and fat--and Pharaoh awaketh.
5. And he sleepeth, and dreameth a second time, and lo, seven ears are coming up on one stalk, fat and good,
6. and lo, seven ears, thin, and blasted with an east wind, are springing up after them;
