After two full years, Pharaoh dreamed that he was standing by the Nile, and up from the river emerged seven healthy, fat cows, and they began grazing in the marshland. Then he saw seven other cows come up out of the Nile right behind them. They were ugly and thin, and they stood beside the fat cows on the riverbank. The seven ugly, thin cows ate up the seven healthy, fat cows. After Pharaoh’s dream he awoke and fell back to sleep. He dreamed a second time. In his dream, he saw seven ears of grain, plump, ripe, and growing on a single stalk. Close behind them sprouted seven ears of grain, thin and shriveled by the east wind. And the seven thin ears swallowed up the seven plump and full ears. Then Pharaoh awoke from his vivid and disturbing dream!
