Genesis 40

1 The butler and baker of Pharaoh in prison. 4 Joseph hath charge of them. 5 He interpreteth their dreams. 20 They come to pass according to his interpretation. 23 The ingratitude of the butler.

 40:1 Then it came 1961 about after 310 these 428 things 1697, the cupbearer 4945a and the baker 644 for the king 4428 of Egypt 4714 offended 2398 their lord 113, the king 4428 of Egypt 4714.

 40:2 Pharaoh 6547 was furious 7107 with his two 8147 officials 5631, the chief 8269 cupbearer 4945a and the chief 8269 baker 644.

 40:3 So he put 5414 them in confinement 4929 in the house 1004 of the captain 8269 of the bodyguard 2876, in the jail 1004 5470, the [same] place 4725 where 834 8033 Joseph 3130 was imprisoned 631.

 40:4 The captain 8269 of the bodyguard 2876 put 6485 Joseph 3130 in charge 6485 of them, and he took 8334 care 8334 of them; and they were in confinement 4929 for some 3117 time 3117.

 40:5 Then the cupbearer 4945a and the baker 644 for the king 4428 of Egypt 4714, who 834 were confined 631 in jail 1004 5470, both 8147 had 2492b a dream 2472 the same 259 night 3915, each 376 man 376 with his [own] dream 2472 [and] each 376 dream 2472 with its [own] interpretation 6623.

 40:6 When Joseph 3130 came 935 to them in the morning 1242 and observed 7200 them, behold 2009, they were dejected 2196.

 40:7 He asked 7592 Pharaoh’s 6547 officials 5631 who 834 were with him in confinement 4929 in his master’s 113 house 1004, “Why 4069 are your faces 6440 so sad 7451a today 3117?”

 40:8 Then they said 559 to him, “We have had 2492b a dream 2472 and there 369 is no 369 one 369 to interpret 6622 it.” Then Joseph 3130 said 559 to them, “Do not interpretations 6623 belong to God 430? Tell 5608 [it] to me, please 4994.”

 40:9 ¶ So the chief 8269 cupbearer 4945a told 5608 his dream 2472 to Joseph 3130, and said 559 to him, “In my dream 2472, behold 2009, [there was] a vine 1612 in front 6440 of me;

 40:10 and on the vine 1612 [were] three 7969 branches 8299. And as it was budding 6524a, its blossoms 5322a came 5927 out, [and] its clusters 811 produced 1310 ripe 1310 grapes 6025.

 40:11 “Now Pharaoh’s 6547 cup 3563a was in my hand 3027; so I took 3947 the grapes 6025 and squeezed 7818 them into Pharaoh’s 6547 cup 3563a, and I put 5414 the cup 3563a into Pharaoh’s 6547 hand 3709.”

 40:12 Then Joseph 3130 said 559 to him, “This 2088 is the interpretation 6623 of it: the three 7969 branches 8299 are three 7969 days 3117;

 40:13 within three 7969 more 5750 days 3117 Pharaoh 6547 will lift 5375 up your head 7218 and restore 7725 you to your office 3653b; and you will put 5414 Pharaoh’s 6547 cup 3563a into his hand 3027 according to your former 7223 custom 4941 when 834 you were his cupbearer 4945a.

 40:14 “Only 3588 518 keep 2142 me in mind when 3512c it goes 3190 well 3190 with you, and please 4994 do 6213a me a kindness 2617a by mentioning 2142 me to Pharaoh 6547 and get 3318 me out of this 2088 house 1004.

 40:15 “For I was in fact 1589 kidnapped 1589 from the land 776 of the Hebrews 5680, and even 1571 here 6311 I have done 6213a nothing 3808 3972 that they should have put 7760 me into the dungeon 953a.”

 40:16 ¶ When the chief 8269 baker 644 saw 7200 that he had interpreted 6622 favorably 2896a, he said 559 to Joseph 3130, “I also 637 [saw] in my dream 2472, and behold 2009, [there were] three 7969 baskets 5536 of white 2751 bread 2751 on my head 7218;

 40:17 and in the top 5945a basket 5536 [there were] some 4480 of all 3605 sorts of baked 644 food 3978 for Pharaoh 6547, and the birds 5775 were eating 398 them out of the basket 5536 on my head 7218.”

 40:18 Then Joseph 3130 answered 6030a and said 559, “This 2088 is its interpretation 6623: the three 7969 baskets 5536 are three 7969 days 3117;

 40:19 within three 7969 more 5750 days 3117 Pharaoh 6547 will lift 5375 up your head 7218 from you and will hang 8518 you on a tree 6086, and the birds 5775 will eat 398 your flesh 1320 off 4480 5921 you.”

 40:20 ¶ Thus it came 1961 about on the third 7992 day 3117, [which was] Pharaoh’s 6547 birthday 3205 3117, that he made 6213a a feast 4960 for all 3605 his servants 5650; and he lifted 5375 up the head 7218 of the chief 8269 cupbearer 4945a and the head 7218 of the chief 8269 baker 644 among 8432 his servants 5650.

 40:21 He restored 7725 the chief 8269 cupbearer 4945a to his office 4945b, and he put 5414 the cup 3563a into Pharaoh’s 6547 hand 3709;

 40:22 but he hanged 8518 the chief 8269 baker 644, just 3512c as Joseph 3130 had interpreted 6622 to them.

 40:23 Yet the chief 8269 cupbearer 4945a did not remember 2142 Joseph 3130, but forgot 7911 him.
