4
And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them; and they continued a season under guard.
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, who were bound in the prison.
6
And Joseph came in unto them in the morning and looked upon them, and behold, they were sad.
7
And he asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in the guard of his lord's house, saying, "Why look ye so sadly today?"
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."
9
And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, "In my dream, behold, a vine was before me.
10
And in the vine were three branches; and it was as though it budded and her blossoms shot forth, and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes.
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."
12
And Joseph said unto him, "This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days.
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.
14
But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and show kindness, I pray thee, unto me; and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house.
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."
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.
