< Genesis 40 >
1 And after these things, the butler of the King of Egypt and his baker offended their lorde the King of Egypt.
And it chaunced after this that the chefe butlar of the kynge of Egipte and his chefe baker had offended there lorde the kynge of Egypte.
2 And Pharaoh was angrie against his two officers, against the chiefe butler, and against the chiefe baker.
And Pharao was angrie with them and put the in warde in his chefe marshals house:
3 Therefore he put them in ward in his chiefe stewardes house, in the prison and place where Ioseph was bound.
euen in ye preson where Ioseph was bownd.
4 And the chiefe steward gaue Ioseph charge ouer them, and he serued them: and they continued a season in warde.
And the chefe marshall gaue Ioseph a charge with them and he serued them. And they contynued a season in warde.
5 And they both dreamed a dreame, eyther of them his dreame in one night, eche one according to the interpretation of his dreame, both the butler and the baker of the King of Egypt, which were bounde in the prison.
And they dreamed ether of them in one nyghte: both the butlar and the baker of the kynge of Egipte which were bownde in the preson house ether of them his dreame and eche manes dreame of a sondrie interpretation
6 And when Ioseph came in vnto them in the morning, and looked vpon them, beholde, they were sad.
When Ioseph came in vnto them in the mornynge and loked apon them: beholde they were sadd.
7 And he asked Pharaohs officers, that were with him in his masters warde, saying, Wherefore looke ye so sadly to day?
And he asked them saynge wherfore loke ye so sadly to daye?
8 Who answered him, We haue dreamed, eche one a dreame, and there is none to interprete the same. Then Ioseph saide vnto them, Are not interpretations of God? tell them me nowe.
They answered him we haue dreamed a dreame and haue no man to declare it. And Ioseph sayde vnto the. Interpretynge belongeth to God but tel me yet.
9 So the chiefe butler tolde his dreame to Ioseph, and said vnto him, In my dreame, behold, a vine was before me,
And the chefe butlar tolde his dreame to Ioseph and sayde vnto him. In my dreame me thought there stode a vyne before me
10 And in the vine were three branches, and as it budded, her flowre came foorth: and the clusters of grapes waxed ripe.
and in the vyne were. iij. braunches and it was as though it budded and her blossos shottforth: and ye grapes there of waxed rype.
11 And I had Pharaohs cup in mine hande, and I tooke the grapes, and wrung the into Pharaohs cup, and I gaue the cup into Pharaohs hand.
And I had Pharaos cuppe in my hande and toke of the grapes and wronge them in to Pharaos cuppe and delyvered Pharaos cuppe into his hande.
12 Then Ioseph sayde vnto him, This is the interpretation of it: The three braunches are three dayes.
And Ioseph sayde vnto him this is the interpretation of it.
13 Within three dayes shall Pharaoh lift vp thine head, and restore thee vnto thine office, and thou shalt giue Pharaohs cup into his hand after the olde maner, when thou wast his butler.
The. iij. braunches ar thre dayes: for within thre dayes shall Pharao lyft vp thine heade and restore the vnto thyne office agayne and thou shalt delyuer Pharaos cuppe in to his hade after the old maner even as thou dydest when thou wast his butlar.
14 But haue me in remembrance with thee, when thou art in good case, and shew mercie, I pray thee, vnto me, and make mention of me to Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring me out of this house.
But thinke on me with the when thou art in good case and shewe mercie vnto me. And make mencion of me to Pharao and helpe to brynge me out of this house:
15 For I was stollen away by theft out of the land of the Ebrewes, and here also haue I done nothing, wherefore they should put mee in the dungeon.
for I was stollen out of the lande of the Hebrues and here also haue I done nothige at all wherfore they shulde haue put me in to this dongeon.
16 And when the chiefe baker sawe that the interpretation was good, hee saide vnto Ioseph, Also mee thought in my dreame that I had three white baskets on mine head.
When the chefe baker sawe that he had well interpretate it he sayde vnto Ioseph me thought also in my dreame yt I had. iij. wyker baskettes on my heade?
17 And in the vppermost basket there was of all maner baken meates for Pharaoh: and the birdes did eate them out of the basket vpon mine head.
And in ye vppermost basket of all maner bakemeates for Pharao. And the byrdes ate them out of the basket apon my heade
18 Then Ioseph answered, and saide, This is the interpretation thereof: The three baskets are three dayes:
Ioseph answered and sayde: this is the interpretation therof. The. iij. baskettes are. iij. dayes
19 Within three dayes shall Pharaoh take thine head from thee, and shall hang thee on a tree, and the birdes shall eate thy flesh from off thee.
for this daye. iij. dayes shall Pharao take thy heade from the and shall hange the on a tree and the byrdes shall eate thy flesh from of the.
20 And so the third day, which was Pharaohs birthday, hee made a feast vnto all his seruants: and hee lifted vp the head of the chiefe butler, and the head of the chiefe baker among his seruants.
And it came to passe the thyrde daye which was Pharaos byrth daye that he made a feast vnto all his servauntes. And he lyfted vpp the head of the chefe buttelar and of the chefe baker amonge his servauntes.
21 And he restored the chiefe butler vnto his butlershippe, who gaue the cup into Pharaohs hande,
And restored the chefe buttelar vnto his buttelarshipe agayne and he reched the cuppe in to Pharaos hande
22 But he hanged the chiefe baker, as Ioseph had interpreted vnto them.
ad hanged the chefe baker: eue as Ioseph had interpretated vnto the.
23 Yet the chiefe butler did not remember Ioseph, but forgate him.
Notwithstonding the chefe buttelar remembred not Ioseph but forgat hym.
