40:1
And it came to pass after these things, that the
butler
of
the king of Egypt
and his
baker
had offended their
lord
the king
of
Egypt
.
40:2
And Pharaoh was
wroth
against two of his
officer
s, against
the chief of the butlers
, and against
the chief of the bakers
.
40:3
And he put them
in ward
in the house
of the
captain of the guard
, into the
prison
, the place where
Joseph
was
bound
.
40:4
And the
captain
of the
guard
charged Joseph with them, and he
serve
d them: and they continued
a season
in ward.
40:5
And
they dreamed a dream both of them
,
each man his dream in one night
, each man according to
the interpretation of his dream
,
the butler and the baker
of the
king of
Egypt, which were
bound in the prison
.
40:6
And Joseph
came in unto
them
in the morning
, and looked upon them, and,
behold, they were sad
.
40:7
And he asked
Pharaoh
's officers that were with him in the ward of his lord's house, saying,
Wherefore look ye so sadly to day?
40:8
And they said unto him, We have
dreamed
a dream
, and there is no
interpreter
of it. And Joseph said unto them,
Do not interpretations belong to God?
tell me them, I
pray you
.
40:9
And
the chief butler
told his dream to Joseph, and said to him,
In my dream
,
behold
, a
vine
was before me;
40:10
And in the vine were
three branches
: and it was as though it
bud
ded, and
her blossoms shot forth
; and the clusters thereof brought forth
ripe grapes
:
40:11
And
Pharaoh's cup
was in my hand: and
I took the grapes
, and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I
gave the cup
into
Pharaoh's hand
.
40:12
And Joseph said unto him,
This is the interpretation of it
: The
three branches are three days
:
40:13
Yet within
three days
shall Pharaoh
lift up thine head
, and restore thee unto
thy place
: and
thou shalt deliver
Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner
when thou wast his butler
.
40:14
But
think on me
when it shall
be well
with thee, and
shew
kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and
make mention
of me unto Pharaoh, and
bring me out of this house
:
40:15
For indeed I was
stolen away
out of
the land of the Hebrews
: and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into
the dungeon
.
40:16
When
the chief baker
saw that
the interpretation
was good, he said unto Joseph, I also was in my dream, and,
behold
, I had
three white baskets
on my head: 40:17 And in the
uppermost basket
there was of
all manner of bakemeats
for Pharaoh; and
the birds
did eat them out of
the basket upon my head
.
40:18
And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation thereof: The
three baskets are three days
: 40:19 Yet within
three days
shall Pharaoh
lift up thy head from off thee
, and shall
hang thee on a tree
; and
the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee
.
40:20
And it came to pass
the third day
, which was
Pharaoh's birthday
, that he made
a feast
unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants.
40:21
And he restored the chief butler unto his
butlership
again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand: 40:22 But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.
40:23
Yet
did not the chief butler remember
Joseph, but
forgat
him.
