• Genesis 40:9

    And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;

  • Genesis 40:10

    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:

  • Genesis 40:11

    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.

  • Genesis 40:12

    And Joseph said unto him, This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days:

  • Genesis 40:13

    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.

  • Genesis 40:14

    But thinkb on me when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:

  • Genesis 40:15

    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.

  • Genesis 40:16

    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 whitec baskets on my head:

  • Genesis 40:17

    And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of bakemeatsd for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head.

  • Genesis 40:18

    And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation thereof: The three baskets are three days:

  • Genesis 40:19

    Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.

  • Genesis 40:20

    And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants.

  • Genesis 40:21

    And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand:

  • Genesis 40:22

    But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.

  • Genesis 40:23
