God's Word Translation

Genesis 41:8-13 God's Word Translation (GW)

8. In the morning he was so upset that he sent for all the magicians and wise men of Egypt. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but no one could tell him what they meant.

9. Then the chief cupbearer spoke to Pharaoh, “I remember a promise I failed to keep.

10. Some time ago when Pharaoh was angry with his servants, he confined me and the chief baker to the captain of the guard’s prison.

11. We both had dreams the same night. Each dream had its own meaning.

12. A young Hebrew, a slave of the captain of the guard, was with us. We told him our dreams, and he told each of us what they meant.

13. What he told us happened: Pharaoh restored me to my position, but he hung the baker on a pole.”
