    17Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, "In my dream, behold, I stood on the brink of the river:

    18and behold, there came up out of the river seven cattle, fat and sleek. They fed in the marsh grass,

    19and behold, seven other cattle came up after them, poor and very ugly and thin, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for ugliness.

    20The thin and ugly cattle ate up the first seven fat cattle,

    21and when they had eaten them up, it couldn't be known that they had eaten them, but they were still ugly, as at the beginning. So I awoke.

    22I saw in my dream, and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, full and good:

    23and behold, seven heads of grain, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.

    24The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads of grain. I told it to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me."

    25Joseph said to Pharaoh, "The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God is about to do he has declared to Pharaoh.

    26The seven good cattle are seven years; and the seven good heads of grain are seven years. The dream is one.

    27The seven thin and ugly cattle that came up after them are seven years, and also the seven empty heads of grain blasted with the east wind; they will be seven years of famine.

    28That is the thing which I spoke to Pharaoh. What God is about to do he has shown to Pharaoh.

    29Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt.

    30There will arise after them seven years of famine, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land,

    31and the plenty will not be known in the land by reason of that famine which follows; for it will be very grievous.
