Genesis 41:24-26
New English Translation

24 The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads of grain. So I told all this[a] to the diviner-priests, but no one could tell me its meaning.”[b]

25 Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, “Both dreams of Pharaoh have the same meaning.[c] God has revealed[d] to Pharaoh what he is about to do.[e] 26 The seven good cows represent seven years, and the seven good heads of grain represent seven years. Both dreams have the same meaning.[f]
