Genesis 41:11 In-Context

9 Then spoke the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying, "I do remember my faults this day.

10 Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me under guard in the captain of the guard's house, both me and the chief baker.

11 And we dreamed a dream one night, I and he; we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.

12 And there was there with us a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard; and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams. To each man according to his dream he did interpret.

13 And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was: me he restored unto mine office, and him he hanged."
