11. Where in one night both of us dreamed a dream foreboding things to come.
12. There was there a young man a Hebrew, servant to the same captain of the soldiers: to whom we told our dreams,
13. And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet.
14. Forthwith at the king's command, Joseph was brought out of the prison, and they shaved him, and changing his apparel, brought him in to him.
15. And he said to him: I have dreamed dreams, and there is no one that can expound them: Now I have heard that thou art very wise at interpreting them.
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.
