    Genesis 40
    • 1   After this, it came to pass, that two eunuchs, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, offended their lord.
    • 2   And Pharao being angry with them, (now the one was chief butler, the other chief baker,)
    • 3   He sent them to the prison of the commander of the soldiers, in which Joseph also was prisoner.
    • 4   But the keeper of the prison delivered them to Joseph, and he served them. Some little time passed, and they were kept in custody.
    • 5   And they both dreamed a dream the same night, according to the interpretation agreeing to themselves:
    • 6   And when Joseph was come into them in the morning, and saw them sad,
    • 7   He asked them, saying: Why is your countenance sadder today than usual?
    • 8   They answered: We have dreamed a dream, and there is nobody to interpret it to us. And Joseph said to them: Doth not interpretation belong to God? Tell me what you have dreamed:
    • 9   The chief butler first told his dream: I saw before me a vine,
    • 10   On which were three branches, which by little and little sent out buds, and after the blossoms brought forth ripe grapes:
    • 11   And the cup of Pharao was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into the cup which I held, and I gave the cup to Pharao.
    • 12   Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three branches, are yet three days:
    • 13   After which Pharao will remember thy service, and will restore thee to thy former place: and thou shalt present him the cup according to thy office, as before thou was wont to do.
    • 14   Only remember me when it shall be well with thee, and do me this kindness: to put Pharao in mind to take me out of this prison:
    • 15   For I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here without any fault was cast into the dungeon.
    • 16   The chief baker seeing that he had wisely interpreted the dream, said: I also dreamed a dream, That I had three baskets of meal upon my head:
    • 17   And that in one basket which was uppermost, I carried all meats that are made by the art of baking, and that the birds ate out of it.
    • 18   Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three baskets, are yet three days:
    • 19   After which Pharao will take thy head from thee, and hang thee on a cross, and the birds shall tear thy flesh.
    • 20   The third day after this was the birthday of Pharao: and he made a great feast for his servants, and at the banquet remembered the chief butler, and the chief baker.
    • 21   And he restored the one to his place, to present him the cup:
    • 22   The other he hanged on a gibbet, that the truth of the interpreter might be shewn.
    • 23   But the chief butler, when things prospered with him, forgot his interpreter.
