1. Then it came about after these things, the cupbearer and the baker for the king of Egypt offended their lord, the king of Egypt.
2. Pharaoh was furious with his two officials, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker.
3. So he put them in confinement in the house of the captain of the bodyguard, in the jail, the same place where Joseph was imprisoned.
4. The captain of the bodyguard put Joseph in charge of them, and he took care of them; and they were in confinement for some time.
5. Then the cupbearer and the baker for the king of Egypt, who were confined in jail, both had a dream the same night, each man with his own dream and each dream with its own interpretation.
6. When Joseph came to them in the morning and observed them, behold, they were dejected.
7. He asked Pharaoh's officials who were with him in confinement in his master's house, "Why are your faces so sad today?"
8. Then they said to him, "We have had a dream and there is no one to interpret it." Then Joseph said to them, "Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell it to me, please."
9. So the chief cupbearer told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, "In my dream, behold, there was a vine in front of me;
10. and on the vine were three branches. And as it was budding, its blossoms came out, and its clusters produced ripe grapes.
11. Now Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; so I took the grapes and squeezed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I put the cup into Pharaoh's hand."
12. Then Joseph said to him, "This is the interpretation of it: the three branches are three days;
13. within three more days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your office; and you will put Pharaoh's cup into his hand according to your former custom when you were his cupbearer.
