Genesis 40:9-14 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

9. So the chief cupbearer related his dream to Yosĕph, and said to him, “See, in my dream a vine was before me,

10. and in the vine were three branches, and it was as though it budded – its blossoms shot forth, and its clusters brought forth ripe grapes.

11. “And Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand. So I took the grapes and pressed them into Pharaoh’s cup, and placed the cup in Pharaoh’s hand.”

12. And Yosĕph said to him, “This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days.

13. “Yet, within three days Pharaoh is going to lift up your head and restore you to your place, and you shall put Pharaoh’s cup in his hand according to the former ruling, when you were his cupbearer.

14. “But remember me when it is well with you, and please show kindness to me. And mention me to Pharaoh, and get me out of this house.
