The Darby Translation DBY
New International Version NIV
1 And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed, and behold, he stood by the river.
1
When two full years had passed, Pharaoh had a dream: He was standing by the Nile,
2 And behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fine-looking and fat-fleshed, and they fed in the reed-grass.
2
when out of the river there came up seven cows, sleek and fat, and they grazed among the reeds.
3 And behold, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, bad-looking and lean-fleshed, and stood by the kine on the bank of the river.
3
After them, seven other cows, ugly and gaunt, came up out of the Nile and stood beside those on the riverbank.
4 And the kine that were bad-looking and lean-fleshed ate up the seven kine that were fine-looking and fat. And Pharaoh awoke.
4
And the cows that were ugly and gaunt ate up the seven sleek, fat cows. Then Pharaoh woke up.
5 And he slept and dreamed the second time; and behold, seven ears of corn grew up on one stalk, fat and good.
5
He fell asleep again and had a second dream: Seven heads of grain, healthy and good, were growing on a single stalk.
6 And behold, seven ears, thin and parched with the east wind, sprung up after them.
6
After them, seven other heads of grain sprouted—thin and scorched by the east wind.
