26. The seven good cows stand for seven years, and the seven good heads of grain stand for seven years. Both dreams mean the same thing.
27. The seven thin and ugly cows stand for seven years, and the seven thin heads of grain burned by the hot east wind stand for seven years of hunger.

29. You will have seven years of good crops and plenty to eat in all the land of Egypt.
