< 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.
And it was after the things these they sinned [the] cup bearer of [the] king of Egypt and the baker to master their to [the] king of Egypt.
2 And Pharao being angry with them (now the one was chief butler, the other chief baker)
And he was angry Pharaoh towards two of officials his towards [the] chief of the cup bearers and towards [the] chief of the bakers.
3 He sent them to the prison of the commander of the soldiers, in which Joseph also was prisoner,
And he put them in [the] custody of [the] house of [the] commander of the bodyguards into [the] house of the prison [the] place where Joseph [was] imprisoned there.
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.
And he appointed [the] commander of the bodyguards Joseph with them and he served them and they were days in custody.
5 And they both dreamed a dream the same night, according to the interpretation agreeing to themselves:
And they dreamed a dream both of them each own dream his in a night one each according to [the] interpretation of dream his the cup bearer and the baker who [belonged] to [the] king of Egypt who [were] imprisoned in [the] house of the prison.
6 And when Joseph was come in to them in the morning, and saw them sad,
And he came to them Joseph in the morning and he saw them and [were] they looking dejected.
7 He asked them, saying: Why is your countenance sadder today than usual?
And he asked [the] officials of Pharaoh who [were] with him in [the] custody of [the] house of master his saying why? [are] faces your sad this day.
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.
And they said to him a dream we dreamed and [is one who] interprets there not it and he said to them Joseph ¿ not [belong] to God [do] interpretations recount [it] please to me.
9 The chief butler first told his dream: I saw before me a vine,
And he recounted [the] chief of the cup bearers dream his to Joseph and he said to him in dream my and there! a vine [was] before me.
10 On which were three branches, which by little and little sent out buds, and after the blossoms brought forth ripe grapes:
And [were] on the vine three branches and it when [it was] budding it went up blossom its they ripened clusters its 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.
And [the] cup of Pharaoh [was] in hand my and I took the grapes and I squeezed them into [the] cup of Pharaoh and I put the cup on [the] palm of Pharaoh.
12 Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three branches are yet three days:
And he said to him Joseph this [is] interpretation its [the] three the branches [are] three days they.
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 wast wont to do.
In again - three days he will lift up Pharaoh head your and he will restore you to office your and you will put [the] cup of Pharaoh in hand his according to the custom former when you were cup bearer his.
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:
That except you have remembered me with you when it will go well for you and you will do please with me loyalty and you will bring to remembrance me to Pharaoh and you will bring out me from the house this.
15 For I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here without any fault was cast into the dungeon.
For certainly I was stolen from [the] land of the Hebrews and also here not I have done anything that they have put me in the pit.
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:
And he saw [the] chief of the bakers that good he had interpreted and he said to Joseph also I in dream my and there! three baskets of white bread [were] on head my.
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.
And [was] in the basket upper some of all [the] food of Pharaoh [the] work of a baker and the bird[s] [was] eating them from the basket from on head my.
18 Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three baskets are yet three days:
And he answered Joseph and he said this [is] interpretation its [the] three the baskets [are] three days they.
19 After which Pharao will take thy head from thee, and hang thee on a cross, and the birds shall tear thy flesh.
In again - three days he will lift up Pharaoh head your from on you and he will hang you on a tree and it will eat the bird[s] flesh your from on you.
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.
And it was - on the day third ([the] day of *LAH(b)*) being born Pharaoh and he made a feast for all servants his and he lifted up [the] head of - [the] chief of the cup bearers and [the] head of [the] chief of the bakers in among servants his.
21 And he restored the one to his place to present him the cup:
And he restored [the] chief of the cup bearers to cup bearing his and he put the cup on [the] palm of Pharaoh.
22 The other he hanged on a gibbet, that the truth of the interpreter might be shewn.
And [the] chief of the bakers he hanged just as he had interpreted for them Joseph.
23 But the chief butler, when things prospered with him, forgot his interpreter.
And not he remembered [the] chief of the cup bearers Joseph and he forgot him.
