Pharaoh's Dream [08-06]
After two years, Joseph was still in prison, even though he was innocent. One night, the Pharaoh, which is what the Egyptians called their kings, had two dreams that disturbed him greatly. None of his advisors could tell him the meaning of the dreams.
几年之后，尽管是清白的，约瑟仍然在监狱里。埃及的国王，也就是法老，一直被两个梦困扰。他的大臣们没有一个可以告诉他这两个梦的意思。
