…when seven cows, sleek and well-fed, came up from the river and began to graze among the reeds.

And the cows that were sickly and thin devoured the seven sleek, well-fed cows. Then Pharaoh woke up,

…but he fell back asleep and dreamed a second time: Seven heads of grain, plump and ripe, came up on one stalk.

And the thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven plump, ripe ones. Then Pharaoh awoke and realized it was a dream.

…when seven cows, well-fed and sleek, came up from the river and began to graze among the reeds.

Then the thin, ugly cows devoured the seven well-fed cows that were there first.

…and brought the tribute to Eglon king of Moab, who was an obese man.

…ten fat oxen, twenty range oxen, and a hundred sheep, as well as deer, gazelles, roebucks, and fattened poultry.

They have no struggle in their death; their bodies are well-fed.

You eat the fat, wear the wool, and butcher the fattened sheep, but you do not feed the flock.

And at the end of ten days, they looked healthier and better nourished than all the young men who were eating the king’s food.

Therefore he sacrifices to his dragnet and burns incense to his fishing net, for by these things his portion is sumptuous and his food is rich.

For behold, I will raise up a shepherd in the land who will neither care for the lost, nor seek the young, nor heal the broken, nor sustain the healthy, but he will devour the flesh of the choice sheep and tear off their hooves.
