New Testament

Genesis 41:20-26 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

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.

22. I also dreamed that I saw seven heads of grain growing on one stalk. The heads were full and ripe.

23. Then seven other heads of grain came up. They were thin and scorched by a wind from the desert.

24. These heads of grain swallowed the full ones. I told my dreams to the magicians, but none of them could tell me the meaning of the dreams.

25. Joseph replied:Your Majesty, both of your dreams mean the same thing, and in them God has shown what he is going to do.

26. The seven good cows stand for seven years, and so do the seven good heads of grain.
