1. At the end of two full years, Pharaoh dreamt: and behold, he stood by the river.
2. Behold, there came up out of the river seven cattle, sleek and fat, and they fed in the marsh grass.
3. Behold, seven other cattle came up after them out of the river, ugly and thin, and stood by the other cattle on the brink of the river.
4. The ugly and thin cattle ate up the seven sleek and fat cattle. So Pharaoh awoke.
5. He slept and dreamt a second time; and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, healthy and good.
6. Behold, seven heads of grain, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
7. The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy and full ears. Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.
8. In the morning, his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all of Egypt’s magicians and wise men. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh.
9. Then the chief cup bearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, “I remember my faults today.
10. Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, with the chief baker.
