O ye chiefs! give me an answer in regard to my vision if a vision ye are wont to expound. 43 "They were only confused dreams," they said; "we do not know how to interpret them." 44 And he of the two who was released, and (now) at length remembered, said: I am going to announce unto you the interpretation, therefore send me forth. 45 [He said], "Joseph, O man of truth, explain to us about seven fat cows eaten by seven [that were] lean, and seven green spikes [of grain] and others [that were] dry - that I may return to the people; perhaps they will know [about you]." 46 Joseph said, "You shall sow for seven consecutive years as usual, but leave in the ear the harvest that you reap, except for a little which you may eat. 47 Thereafter, seven hard years will come upon you, which will consume all but little of that which you have stored. 48 Then there will come after that a year in which people shall have rain and in which they shall press (grapes). 49
