1
It came to pass after these things that the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt offended their lord, the king of Egypt.
2
And Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief butler and the chief baker.
3
So he put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the prison, the place where Joseph was confined.
4
And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them; so they were in custody for a while.
5
Then the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison, had a dream, both of them, each man's dream in one night and each man's dream with its own interpretation.
6
And Joseph came in to them in the morning and looked at them, and saw that they were sad.
7
So he asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in the custody of his lord's house, saying, "Why do you look so sad today?"
8
And they said to him, "We each have had a dream, and there is no interpreter of it." So Joseph said to them, "Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell them to me, please."
9
Then the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, "Behold, in my dream a vine was before me,
10
and in the vine were three branches; it was as though it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and its clusters brought forth ripe grapes.
11
Then Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand."
