Genesis 40:3-8 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

3. And he put them in custody in the house of the chief of the guard, into the prison where Joseph was confined.

4. And the chief of the guard appointed Joseph to be with them, and he attended them. And they were in custody many days.

5. And the two of them, the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison, dreamed a dream, each his own dream, with its own interpretation.

6. When Joseph came to them in the morning he looked at them, and behold, they were troubled.

7. And he asked the court officials of Pharaoh that were with him in the custody of his master’s house, “Why are your faces sad today?”

8. And they said to him, “We each dreamed a dream, but there is no one to interpret it.” And Joseph said to them, “Do not interpretations belong to God? Please tell them to me.”
