6. And behold, seven ears, thin and parched with the east wind, sprung up after them.
7. And the thin ears devoured the seven fat and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke; and behold, it was a dream.
8. And it came to pass in the morning, that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the scribes of Egypt, and all the sages who were therein, and Pharaoh told them his dream; but there was none to interpret them to Pharaoh.
9. Then spoke the chief of the cup-bearers to Pharaoh, saying, I remember mine offences this day.
10. Pharaoh was wroth with his bondmen, and put me in custody into the captain of the life-guard's house, me and the chief of the bakers.
11. And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each according to the interpretation of his dream.
12. And there was there with us a Hebrew youth, a bondman of the captain of the life-guard, to whom we told them, and he interpreted to us our dreams; to each he interpreted according to his dream.
13. And it came to pass, just as he interpreted to us, so it came about: me has he restored to my office, and him he hanged.
14. Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph; and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. And he shaved himself, and changed his clothes, and came in to Pharaoh.
15. And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have dreamt a dream, and there is none to interpret it. And I have heard say of thee, thou understandest a dream to interpret it.
16. And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.
17. And Pharaoh said to Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood on the bank of the river.
18. And behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fat-fleshed and of fine form, and they fed in the reed-grass.
19. And behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor, and very ill-formed, and lean-fleshed--such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness.
