1 And coming is it, after these things, that sinned have the chief cupbearer of the king of Egypt, and the chief baker against their lord, the king of Egypt. 2 And wroth is Pharaoh over his two eunuchs, over the chief of the cupbearers and over the chief of the bakers. 3 And giving them is he over in ward in the house of the chief of the executioners, to the round-house, the place where Joseph was bound. 4 And the chief of the executioners gives Joseph the supervision over them, and he is ministering to them. And coming are they to be some days in ward. 5 And dreaming are both a dream. Each man has his dream in the same night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker, who are the king of Egypt's who are bound in the round-house. 6 And coming to them is Joseph in the morning, and he is seeing them. And, behold! They are turbulent! 7 And asking is he Pharaoh's eunuchs, who are with him in the ward of his lord's house, saying, "For what reason are your faces evil today?" 8 And saying are they to him, "A dream we dream, and there is no interpreting of it." And saying is Joseph to them, "Do not interpretations belong to the Elohim? Relate them, pray, to me." 9 And relating is the chief cupbearer his dream to Joseph and is saying to him, "In my dream, behold! A vine is before me. 10 And in the vine are three intertwining branches. And it seems as if budding. Up come blossoms. Ripening are its clusters of grapes. 11 And the cup of Pharaoh is in my hand. And taking am I the grapes and pressing them into Pharaoh's cup. And giving am I the cup into Pharaoh's hand." 12 And saying to him is Joseph, "This is its interpretation: The three intertwined branches, three days are they. 13 In further three days Pharaoh will lift up your head, and restore you to your post, and you shall give Pharaoh's cup into his hand, according to the former custom, by which you became his cupbearer. 14 For, remember me should you when it is well with you, then, pray, deal withal in kindness, and mention me to Pharaoh, and bring me forth from this house, 15 for verily, stolen was I from the land of the Hebrews, and moreover, here have I done naught that they should place me in this cistern." 16 And seeing is the chief of the bakers that he interprets well. And saying is he to Joseph. "Indeed, I dreamed in my dream and, behold! Three days of cereal food is on my head. 17 And in the uppermost tray are some of all food for Pharaoh, the king, made by baking. And the flyers of the heavens are eating them from the tray, off my head." 18 And answering is Joseph and saying to him, "This is its interpretation: The three trays, three days are they. 19 In further three days, lift will Pharaoh your head off of you, and hang you on a tree. And the flyers of the heavens shall eat your flesh off of you." 20 And coming is it on the third day, the birthday of Pharaoh, that he is making a feast for all his servants. And lifting up is he the head of the chief of the cupbearers, and the head of the chief of the bakers in the midst of his servants. 21 And restoring is he the chief of the cupbearers to his cupbearing, and giving is he the cup into the hand of Pharaoh. 22 Yet the chief of the bakers he hangs, according as Joseph had interpreted to them. 23 Yet the chief of the cupbearers did not remember Joseph, and forgetting him is he.
