25 Now Joseph said to Pharaoh, “Pharaoh’s 1dreams are one and the same; aGod has told to Pharaoh what He is about to do.

26 “The seven good cows are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years; the 1dreams are one and the same.

27 “The seven lean and ugly cows that came up after them are seven years, and the seven thin ears scorched by the east wind awill be seven years of famine.

28 “1It is as I have spoken to Pharaoh: aGod has shown to Pharaoh what He is about to do.

29 “Behold, aseven years of great abundance are coming in all the land of Egypt;

30 and after them aseven years of famine will 1come, and all the abundance will be forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine will 2ravage the land.

31 “So the abundance will be unknown in the land because of that subsequent famine; for it will be very severe.

32 “Now as for the repeating of the dream to Pharaoh twice, it means that athe matter is determined by God, and God will quickly bring it about.

33 “Now let Pharaoh look for a man adiscerning and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
