Genesis 40:1-6

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 Now after these things the chief servant who had the care of the wine, and the chief bread-maker in Pharaoh's house, did something against Pharaoh's orders;

2 And Pharaoh was angry with his two servants, with the chief wine-servant and the chief bread-maker;

3 And he put them in prison under the care of the captain of the army, in the same prison where Joseph himself was shut up.

4 And the captain put them in Joseph's care, and he did what was needed for them; and they were kept in prison for some time.

5 And these two had a dream on the same night; the chief wine-servant and the chief bread-maker of the king of Egypt, who were in prison, the two of them had dreams with a special sense.

6 And in the morning when Joseph came to them he saw that they were looking sad.

New International Version NIV

1 Some time later, the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt offended their master, the king of Egypt.

2 Pharaoh was angry with his two officials, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker,

3 and put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the same prison where Joseph was confined.

4 The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he attended them. After they had been in custody for some time,

5 each of the two men—the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were being held in prison—had a dream the same night, and each dream had a meaning of its own.

6 When Joseph came to them the next morning, he saw that they were dejected.
