15. The king said to him, “I had a dream, yet no one can explain what it means. I am told that you can interpret dreams.”
16. “Your Majesty,” Joseph answered, “I can't do it myself, but God can give a good meaning to your dreams.”
17. The king told Joseph:I dreamed I was standing on the bank of the River Nile.
18. I saw seven fat, healthy cows come up out of the river, and they began feeding on the grass.
19. Next, seven skinny, bony cows came up out of the river. I have never seen such terrible looking cows anywhere in Egypt.
20. The skinny cows ate the fat ones.
21. But you couldn't tell it, because these skinny cows were just as skinny as they were before. Straight away, I woke up.
