Genesis 41:16 in Context — Genesis 41

14 Pharaon fit appeler Joseph. On le fit sortir en hâte de prison. Il se rasa, changea de vêtements, et se rendit vers Pharaon.

15 Pharaon dit à Joseph: J’ai eu un songe. Personne ne peut l’expliquer; et j’ai appris que tu expliques un songe, après l’avoir entendu.

16 Joseph répondit à Pharaon, en disant: Ce n’est pas moi! C’est Dieu qui donnera une réponse favorable à Pharaon.

17 Pharaon dit alors à Joseph: Dans mon songe, voici, je me tenais sur le bord du fleuve.

18 Et voici, sept vaches grasses de chair et belles d’apparence montèrent hors du fleuve, et se mirent à paître dans la prairie.
