The Dreams of Pharaoh

1After two full years had passed, Pharaoh had a dream: He was standing beside the Nile,2when seven cows, sleek and well-fed, came up from the river and began to graze among the reeds.3After them, seven other cows, sickly and thin, came up from the Nile and stood beside the well-fed cows on the bank of the river.
