41:14 Then Pharaoh summoned ¹  Joseph. So they brought him quickly out of the dungeon; he shaved himself, changed his clothes, and came before Pharaoh. 41:15 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I had a dream, ²  and there is no one who can interpret ³  it. But I have heard about you, that ⁴  you can interpret dreams.” ⁵  41:16 Joseph replied to Pharaoh, “It is not within my power, ⁶  but God will speak concerning ⁷  the welfare of Pharaoh.” ⁸ 

41:17 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “In my dream I was standing ⁹  by the edge of the Nile. 41:18 Then seven fat and fine-looking cows were coming up out of the Nile, and they grazed in the reeds. ¹⁰  41:19 Then ¹¹  seven other cows came up after them; they were scrawny, very bad-looking, and lean. I had never seen such bad-looking cows ¹²  as these in all the land of Egypt! 41:20 The lean, bad-looking cows ate up the seven ¹³  fat cows. 41:21 When they had eaten them, ¹⁴  no one would have known ¹⁵  that they had done so, for they were just as bad-looking as before. Then I woke up. 41:22 I also saw in my dream ¹⁶  seven heads of grain growing on one stalk, full and good. 41:23 Then ¹⁷  seven heads of grain, withered and thin and burned with the east wind, were sprouting up after them. 41:24 The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads of grain. So I told all this ¹⁸  to the diviner-priests, but no one could tell me its meaning.” ¹⁹
