Young's Literal Translation
Some
time
later
, the king’s
cupbearer
and baker offended
their master
, the king of Egypt .
And
it
cometh
to
pass
, after
these
things
--
the butler
of
the
king
of
Egypt
and the
baker have
sinned
against
their lord
, against
the king of Egypt ;
Pharaoh was
angry
with
his two officers
, the chief cupbearer
and the chief baker
,
and
Pharaoh is
wroth
against
his two eunuchs
, against
the chief of
the
butlers,
and against
the chief of
the
bakers
,
and imprisoned
them in the house of the captain
of the guard
, the same
prison
where Joseph was
confined.
and giveth
them in charge
in
the house of the chief
of the executioners
, unto
the round-house,
the
place
where Joseph `is'
a
prisoner,
The captain
of the guard
assigned
them
to
Joseph, and he became
their
personal
attendant.
After
they had
been
in custody
for
some
time,
and
the chief
of the executioners
chargeth
Joseph with
them
, and he serveth
them;
and
they are
days
in charge.
both of these
men—
the Egyptian
king’s
cupbearer
and baker, who were
being
held
in the prison—had
a
dream
on
the
same
night,
and
each
dream
had
its
own
meaning
.
And
they
dream
a
dream
both of them,
each
his
dream
in
one
night,
each
according
to
the interpretation
of
his
dream,
the
butler
and the
baker whom
the
king
of
Egypt
hath
, who `are'
prisoners
in the round-house
.
When
Joseph came
to
them in the morning, he
saw
that
they were
distraught.
And
Joseph cometh
in
unto
them in the morning, and
seeth
them,
and
lo,
they `are'
morose;
So
he asked
the
officials
of
Pharaoh
who were
in
custody
with him in his
master’s
house, “Why
are your faces so
downcast
today
? ”
and
he asketh
Pharaoh's
eunuchs
who `are'
with him in charge
in
the
house of
his
lord
, saying,
`Wherefore
`
are '
your faces sad
to-day
? '
“We
both
had
dreams,”
they replied
, “but
there is no one
to
interpret
them.”
Then
Joseph said
to
them, “Don’t
interpretations belong
to
God? Tell
me your
dreams
. ”
And
they say
unto
him
, `A
dream
we
have
dreamed,
and
there is no interpreter
of
it;'
and
Joseph saith
unto
them, `Are
not
interpretations with
God? recount,
I
pray
you,
to
me. '
So
the chief cupbearer
told
Joseph
his dream :
“
In my dream there
was
a vine before me ,
And
the chief of
the
butlers
recounteth
his dream to
Joseph,
and
saith
to
him,
`
In my dream ,
then
lo,
a vine `is'
before me !
and on
the vine were
three branches .
As it budded,
its blossoms
opened
and
its clusters ripened into
grapes .
and in
the vine `are'
three branches ,
and
it
`is'
as it were
flourishing;
gone
up
hath
its blossom,
its clusters have
ripened grapes ;
Pharaoh’s
cup was
in my hand, and I took
the grapes ,
squeezed
them into his
cup, and placed
the cup in
his
hand. ”
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
. '
Joseph replied
, “
This is the
interpretation: The three branches are three days .
And
Joseph saith
to
him
, `
This `
is '
its
interpretation: the three branches are three days ;
Within three days Pharaoh will
lift up your
head and restore
your
position.
You
will
put Pharaoh’s
cup in
his hand, just
as
you
did
when you
were
his cupbearer
.
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
.
But
when it goes
well for
you
, please
remember
me
and show
me
kindness by
mentioning
me to
Pharaoh, that
he
might
bring
me out of
this prison.
`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,
For I was kidnapped
from the land of the Hebrews ,
and even
here I
have done nothing for
which
they should
have put me in this
dungeon
. ”
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
. '
When
the chief baker
saw
that
the interpretation
was
favorable
, he said
to
Joseph, “
I too
had
a dream :
There
were
three baskets of white bread on my head .
And
the chief of
the bakers
seeth
that
he
hath
interpreted
good
, and
he saith
unto
Joseph, `
I also
`am'
in
a dream ,
and
lo,
three baskets of white bread `are'
on my head ,
In the top
basket were
all sorts
of baked
goods
for
Pharaoh
, but
the birds were
eating them out of the basket on
my head. ”
and
in the uppermost
basket `are'
of
all `kinds'
of Pharaoh's
food
, work
of
a
baker;
and
the birds are
eating them out of the basket ,
from
off
my head. '
Joseph replied
, “
This is the
interpretation: The three baskets are three days .
And
Joseph answereth
and
saith
, `
This `
is '
its
interpretation: the three baskets are three days ;
Within three days Pharaoh will
lift off
your
head and hang
you
on a tree .
Then
the birds will
eat
the
flesh of
your
body
. ”
yet,
within three days doth
Pharaoh lift up
thy
head from
off
thee,
and hath
hanged
thee
on a tree ,
and
the birds have
eaten
thy
flesh from
off
thee
. '
On the third day, which
was
Pharaoh’s
birthday, he held
a feast
for
all his officials
, and in
their
presence
he
lifted
up the heads
of the chief cupbearer
and the chief baker.
And
it
cometh
to
pass,
on the third day, Pharaoh's
birthday, that
he maketh
a banquet
to
all his servants
, and lifteth
up the head
of the chief of
the
butlers,
and the head
of
the
chief of
the
bakers
among
his
servants,
Pharaoh
restored
the chief cupbearer
to his position
, so
that
he once
again
placed
the cup in
Pharaoh’s
hand .
and
he
putteth
back
the chief of
the
butlers
to his butlership
, and
he giveth
the cup into
the
hand of
Pharaoh;
But
Pharaoh
hanged
the chief baker
, just
as Joseph had
described
to them in
his
interpretation.
and
the chief of
the
bakers
he
hath
hanged
, as Joseph hath
interpreted
to them ;
The chief cupbearer,
however,
did
not remember
Joseph ;
he
forgot
all
about
him.
and
the chief of
the
butlers
hath
not remembered
Joseph ,
but
forgetteth
him.
