˹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˺."
يُوسُفُ أَيُّهَا الصِّدِّيقُ أَفْتِنَا فِي سَبْعِ بَقَرَاتٍ سِمَانٍ يَأْكُلُهُنَّ سَبْعٌ عِجَافٌ وَسَبْعِ سُنْبُلَاتٍ خُضْرٍ وَأُخَرَ يَابِسَاتٍ لَعَلِّي أَرْجِعُ إِلَى النَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ يَعْلَمُونَ
And ˹subsequently˺ the king said, "Indeed, I have seen ˹in a dream˺ seven fat cows being eaten by seven ˹that were˺ lean, and seven green spikes ˹of grain˺ and others ˹that were˺ dry. O eminent ones, explain to me my vision, if you should interpret visions."
وَقَالَ الْمَلِكُ إِنِّي أَرَىٰ سَبْعَ بَقَرَاتٍ سِمَانٍ يَأْكُلُهُنَّ سَبْعٌ عِجَافٌ وَسَبْعَ سُنْبُلَاتٍ خُضْرٍ وَأُخَرَ يَابِسَاتٍ ۖ يَا أَيُّهَا الْمَلَأُ أَفْتُونِي فِي رُؤْيَايَ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ لِلرُّؤْيَا تَعْبُرُونَ
