1
And it was, after these words*, that they sinned, the cupbearer* of the king of Egypt and the baker , against▵ their lord , against▵ the king of Egypt .
2
And Pharaoh was··enraged over his two chamberlains, over the prince of the cupbearers, and over the prince of the bakers .
3
And he put ◦ them under▫ guard in the house of the prince of the guards◦, into▵ the jail house , the place where Joseph was bound .
4
And the prince of the guards◦ appointed Joseph over them, and he ministered to them; and they were days under▫ guard .
5
And they dreamed a dream , the two of them, a man ◦ his dream in one night , each man ◦ according··to the interpretation of his dream , the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt , who were bound in the jail house .
6
And Joseph came to▵ them in the morning , and saw them, and behold, they were gloomy.
7
And he asked the chamberlains of Pharaoh who were with◦ him under guard in the house of his lord , saying, Wherefore are your faces evil today ?
8
And they said to▵ him, We have dreamed a dream and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said to▵ them, Do not interpretations belong to God ? Recount◦ it to me, I pray◦.
9
And the prince of the cupbearers recounted◦ his dream to Joseph , and said to him, In my dream behold, a vine was before me.
10
And on◦ the vine were three tendrils, and it◦ was as though it flourished, its blossom went··up, and its clusters ripened 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 upon the palm of Pharaoh ’s hand .
12
And Joseph said to him, This is the interpretation of it. The three tendrils, they◦ are three days .
13
In yet three days shall Pharaoh lift ··up thy head , and shall return thee to thy position◦, and thou shalt give the cup of Pharaoh into his hand , according··to the former manner* when▵ thou wast his cupbearer.
14
But◦ remember me with◦ thee when▵ it is··well for thee, and do mercy , I pray◦, with··me, and make ··mention of me to▵ Pharaoh , and cause me to come··out from this house .
15
For being stolen I was stolen from the land of the Hebrews ; and even here I have not done anything that they should set me in the pit .
16
And the prince of the bakers saw that he had interpreted for good , and he said to▵ Joseph , I◦ also◦ was in my dream , and behold, three baskets with··holes were on my head .
17
And in the highest◦ basket there was of all the food for Pharaoh , made by the baker ; and the fowl ate them from the basket from on my head .
18
And Joseph answered and said , This is the interpretation of it. The three baskets, they◦ are three days .
19
In yet three days shall Pharaoh lift thy head from upon thee, and shall hang thee on wood*; and the fowl shall eat thy flesh from on thee.
20
And it was on the third day , the birthday of Pharaoh , and he made a feast for all his servants ; and he lifted up the head of the prince of the cupbearers and the head of the prince of the bakers in the midst of his servants .
21
And he returned the prince of the cupbearers to his cupbearing; and he gave the cup on the palm of the hand of Pharaoh .
22
And he hanged the prince of the bakers ; as◦ Joseph interpreted to them.
23
And the prince of the cupbearers did not remember Joseph , and he forgot him.
