Genesis 40:1-6

New International Reader's Version NIRV

1 Some time later, the Egyptian king's baker and wine taster did something their master didn't like.

2 So Pharaoh became angry with his two officials, the chief wine taster and the chief baker.

3 He put them in prison in the house of the captain of the palace guard. It was the same prison where Joseph was kept.

4 The captain put Joseph in charge of those men. So Joseph took care of them. Some time passed while they were in prison.

5 Then each of the two men had a dream. The men were the Egyptian king's baker and wine taster. They were being held in prison. Both of them had dreams the same night. Each of their dreams had its own meaning.

6 Joseph came to them the next morning. He saw that they were 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.
