King James Version KJV
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 well favoured kine and fatfleshed; and they fed in a meadow.
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, ill favoured and leanfleshed; and stood by the other kine upon the brink 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 ill favoured and leanfleshed kine did eat up the seven well favoured and fat kine. So 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 came up upon one stalk, rank 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 thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them.
6
After them, seven other heads of grain sprouted—thin and scorched by the east wind.
7 And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.
7
The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy, full heads. Then Pharaoh woke up; it had been a dream.
