Genesis 40
American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)
1 Ref And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker offended their lord the king of Egypt.
2 Ref And Pharaoh was wroth against his two officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
3 Ref And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
4 Ref And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he ministered unto them: and they continued a season in ward.
5 Ref 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 Ref And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and saw them, and, behold, they were sad.
7 Ref And he asked Pharaoh's officers that were with him in ward in his master's house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sad to-day?
8 Ref And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell it me, I pray you.
9 Ref 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' its blossoms shot forth; `and' the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes:
11 Ref 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 Ref And Joseph said unto him, This is the interpretation of it: the three branches are three days;
13 Ref within yet three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head, and restore thee unto thine office: and thou shalt give Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler.
14 Ref But have me in thy remembrance 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 Ref 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 Ref When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph, I also was in my dream, and, behold, three baskets of white bread were on my head:
17 Ref and in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of baked food for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head.
18 Ref And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation thereof: the three baskets are three days;
19 Ref within yet 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.
20 Ref 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 the head of the chief baker among his servants.
21 Ref And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand:
22 Ref but he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 Ref Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgat him.

10 and in the vine `are' three branches, and it `is' as it were flourishing; gone up hath its blossom, its clusters have ripened grapes;
11 Ref and Pharaoh's cup `is' in my hand, and I take the grapes and press them into the cup of Pharaoh, and I give the cup into the hand of Pharaoh.'
12 Ref And Joseph saith to him, `This `is' its interpretation: the three branches are three days;
13 Ref yet, within three days doth Pharaoh lift up thy head, and hath put thee back on thy station, and thou hast given the cup of Pharaoh into his hand, according to the former custom when thou wast his butler.
14 Ref `Surely if thou hast remembered me with thee, when it is well with thee, and hast done (I pray thee) kindness with me, and hast made mention of me unto Pharaoh, then hast thou brought me out from this house,
15 Ref for I was really stolen from the land of the Hebrews; and here also have I done nothing that they have put me in the pit.'

21 Ref and he putteth back the chief of the butlers to his butlership, and he giveth the cup into the hand of Pharaoh;
22 Ref and the chief of the bakers he hath hanged, as Joseph hath interpreted to them;
23 Ref and the chief of the butlers hath not remembered Joseph, but forgetteth him.
