Genesis 41:11 In-Context

9 Then the chief butler spoke unto Pharaoh, saying, I remember my sins today;

10 Pharaoh was angry with his slaves and put me in the prison of the captain of the guard’s house, both me and the prince of the bakers.

11 And we both dreamed a dream in one night; we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.

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

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