Genesis 41:14-25 TPT

After hearing this, Pharaoh immediately sent for Joseph. They rushed him out of the dungeon to prepare him to meet with the king. When he had shaved and changed his clothes, he came and stood before Pharaoh. Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have had two dreams that no one can explain. I have heard that you are able to interpret a dream the moment you hear it.” “I cannot do it alone,” Joseph replied, “but God will help me to give Pharaoh the proper interpretation for Pharaoh’s welfare.” Then Pharaoh told Joseph, “In my dream I was standing on the bank of the Nile, and up from the river emerged seven healthy, fat cows, and they began to graze in the marshland. Right behind them followed seven other scrawny and emaciated cows. Never have I seen such ugly cows in all the land of Egypt! The seven ugly, scrawny cows ate up the healthy, fat cows, but after consuming them, no one could tell that they had eaten them, for they looked just as bad as before. I awoke with a start, but immediately went back to sleep and had another dream. I saw seven ears of grain, full and ripe, growing on a single stalk. Right behind them sprouted seven thin, shriveled ears, scorched by the east wind. The seven shriveled ears swallowed up the seven healthy ears. I have shared my dreams with my magicians, but no one can give me an interpretation.” Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, “Both your dreams tell the same story, for God has prophetically told Pharaoh what he is about to do.
