14 Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon; and he shaved himself, and changed his raiment, and came in unto Pharaoh.

15 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it; and I have heard say of thee that thou canst understand a dream to interpret it.

16 And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me; God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace.

17 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the bank of the river;

18 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fat- fleshed and well-favored; and they fed in a meadow;

19 And, behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor and very ill-favored and lean-fleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness;

20 And the lean in the ill-favored kine did eat up the first seven fat kine;

21 And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them; but they were still ill-favored, as at the beginning. So I awoke.

22 And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good;

23 And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them;

24 And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears; and I told this unto the magicians; but there was none that could declare it to me.
