CHAP. XL.
1 The butler and baker of Pharaoh in prison:
4 Joseph hath charge of them: He interpreteth
their dreams: 20 They come to pass according
to his interpretation. 23 The ingratitude
of the butler.
1 And it came to pass after these things,
that the butler of the king of Egypt
and his baker had offended their lord the
king of Egypt.
2 And Pharaoh was wroth with two
of his officers, with the chief of the butlers,
and with the chief of the bakers.
3 And he put them in custody in the
house of the captain of the guard, into
the prison, the place where Joseph was
bound.
4 And the captain of the guard charged
Joseph with them, and he served
them; and they continued a season in
custody.
5 ¶2; 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 And Joseph came to them in the
morning, and looked upon them, and behold,
they were sad.
7 And he asked Pharaoh's officers that
were with him in the ward of his lord's
house, saying, Why note look ye so sad 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?
tell me them, I pray you.
9 And the chief butler told his dream
to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream,
behold, a vine was before me;
10 And on the vine were three branches:
and it was as though it budded, and
its blossoms shot forth; and its clusters
brought forth ripe 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 into Pharaoh's hand.
12 And Joseph said to him, This is
the interpretation of it: The three
branches are three days;
13 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh
lift up thy head, and restore thee
to thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's
cup into his hand, after the former
manner when thou wast his butler.
-- --
Before CHRIST, 1718.
14 But note think on me when it shall be
well with thee, and show kindness to me,
I pray thee, and make mention of me to
Pharaoh, and bring me out of this
house:
15 For indeed I was stolen away from
the land of the Hebrews: and here also
have I done nothing that they should put
me into the dungeon.
16 When the chief baker saw that the
interpretation was good, he said to Joseph,
I also was in my dream, and behold,
I had three note white baskets on my
head:
17 And in the uppermost basket there
was of all manner of note bake-meats for
Pharaoh; and the birds ate them out of
the basket upon my head.
18 And Joseph answered, and said,
This is the interpretation of it: The
three baskets are three days:
19 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh
note 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 ¶2; And it came to pass the third day,
which was Pharaoh's birth-day, that he
made a feast to all his servants: and he
lifted up the head of the chief butler and
of the chief baker among his servants.
21 And he restored the chief butler to
his butlership again; and he gave the
cup into Pharaoh's hand:
22 But he hanged the chief baker: as
Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 Yet the chief butler did not remember
Joseph, but forgot him.
