1 Now it happened at the end of two full years that Pharaoh had a dream, and behold, he was standing by the Nile. 2 And lo, from the Nile there came up seven cows, sleek andafat; and they grazed in the marsh grass. 3 Then behold, seven other cows came up after them from the Nile, ugly andbgaunt, and they stood by the other cows on the bank of the Nile. 4 The ugly andcgaunt cows ate up the seven sleek and fat cows. Then Pharaoh awoke. 5 He fell asleep and dreamed a second time; and behold, seven ears of grain came up on a single stalk, plump and good. 6 Then behold, seven ears, thin and scorched by the east wind, sprouted up after them. 7 The thin ears swallowed up the seven plump and full ears. Then Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream. 8 Now in the morning his spirit was troubled, so he sent and called for all thedmagicians of Egypt, and all its wise men. And Pharaoh told them hisedreams, but there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh. | |
9 Then the chief cupbearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, “I would make mention today of my ownfoffenses. 10 Pharaoh was furious with his servants, and he put me in confinement in the house of the captain of the bodyguard, both me and the chief baker. 11 We had a dreamgon the same night,hhe and I; each of us dreamed according to the interpretation of his own dream. 12 Now a Hebrew youth was with us there, a servant of the captain of the bodyguard, and we related them to him, and he interpreted our dreams for us. To each one he interpreted according to his own dream. 13 And just as he interpreted for us, so it happened; he restored me in myioffice, but he hanged him.” |
