5 The king went back to sleep and had another dream. This time seven full heads of grain were growing on a single stalk.
6 Later, seven other heads of grain appeared, but they were thin and scorched by a wind from the desert.
7 The thin heads of grain swallowed the seven full heads. Again the king woke up, and it had only been a dream.
8 The next morning the king was upset. So he called in his magicians and wise men and told them what he had dreamed. None of them could tell him what the dreams meant.
9 The king's personal servant said:Now I remember what I was supposed to do.
10 When you were angry with me and your chief cook, you threw us both in jail in the house of the captain of the guard.
11 One night we both had dreams, and each dream had a different meaning.
