40:1 And it came to pass after 310 these things 1697, [that] the butler 8248 8688 of the king 4428 of Egypt 4714 and [his] baker 644 8802 had offended 2398 8804 their lord 113 the king 4428 of Egypt 4714.

40:2 And Pharaoh 6547 was wroth 7107 8799 against 5921 two 8147 [of] his officers 5631, against the chief 8269 of the butlers 8248 8688, and against the chief 8269 of the bakers 644 8802.

40:3 And he put 5414 8799 them in ward 4929 in the house 1004 of the captain 8269 of the guard 2876, into the prison 1004 5470, the place 4725 where Joseph 3130 [was] bound 631 8803.

40:4 And the captain 8269 of the guard 2876 charged 6485 8799 Joseph 3130 with them, and he served 8334 8762 them: and they continued a season 3117 in ward 4929.

40:5 And they dreamed 2492 8799 a dream 2472 both of them 8147, each man 376 his dream 2472 in one 259 night 3915, each man 376 according to the interpretation 6623 of his dream 2472, the butler 8248 8688 and the baker 644 8802 of the king 4428 of Egypt 4714, which [were] bound 631 8803 in the prison 1004 5470.

40:6 And Joseph 3130 came in 935 8799 unto them in the morning 1242, and looked 7200 8799 upon them, and, behold, they [were] sad 2196 8802.

40:7 And he asked 7592 8799 Pharaoh's 6547 officers 5631 that [were] with him in the ward 4929 of his lord's 113 house 1004, saying 559 8800, Wherefore look 6440 ye [so] sadly 7451 to day 3117?(look…: Heb. are your faces evil?)

40:8 And they said 559 8799 unto him, We have dreamed 2492 8804 a dream 2472, and [there is] no interpreter 6622 8802 of it. And Joseph 3130 said 559 8799 unto them, [Do] not interpretations 6623 [belong] to God 430? tell me 5608 8761 [them], I pray you.

40:9 And the chief 8269 butler 8248 8688 told 5608 8762 his dream 2472 to Joseph 3130, and said 559 8799 to him, In my dream 2472, behold, a vine 1612 [was] before me 6440;

40:10 And in the vine 1612 [were] three 7969 branches 8299: and it [was] as though it budded 6524 8802, [and] her blossoms 5322 shot forth 5927 8804; and the clusters 811 thereof brought forth ripe 1310 8689 grapes 6025:

40:11 And Pharaoh's 6547 cup 3563 [was] in my hand 3027: and I took 3947 8799 the grapes 6025, and pressed 7818 8799 them into Pharaoh's 6547 cup 3563, and I gave 5414 8799 the cup 3563 into Pharaoh's 6547 hand 3709.

40:12 And Joseph 3130 said 559 8799 unto him, This [is] the interpretation 6623 of it: The three 7969 branches 8299 [are] three 7969 days 3117:

40:13 Yet 5750 within three 7969 days 3117 shall Pharaoh 6547 lift up 5375 8799 thine head 7218, and restore 7725 8689 thee unto thy place 3653: and thou shalt deliver 5414 8804 Pharaoh's 6547 cup 3563 into his hand 3027, after the former 7223 manner 4941 when thou wast his butler 8248 8688.(lift…: or, reckon)

40:14 But think 2142 8804 on me when it shall be well 3190 8799 with thee, and shew 6213 8804 kindness 2617, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention 2142 8689 of me unto Pharaoh 6547, and bring me 3318 8689 out of this house 1004:(think…: Heb. remember me with thee)

40:15 For indeed I was stolen away 1589 8795 out of the land 776 of the Hebrews 5680: and here also have I done 6213 8804 nothing 3972 that they should put 7760 8804 me into the dungeon 953.

40:16 When the chief 8269 baker 644 8802 saw 7200 8799 that the interpretation 6622 8804 was good 2896, he said 559 8799 unto Joseph 3130, I also 637 [was] in my dream 2472, and, behold, [I had] three 7969 white 2751 baskets 5536 on my head 7218:(white: or, full of holes)

40:17 And in the uppermost 5945 basket 5536 [there was] of all manner 3978 of bakemeats 4639 644 8802 for Pharaoh 6547; and the birds 5775 did eat 398 8802 them out of the basket 5536 upon 5921 my head 7218.(bakemeats…: Heb. meat of Pharaoh, the work of a baker, or, cook)

40:18 And Joseph 3130 answered 6030 8799 and said 559 8799, This [is] the interpretation 6623 thereof: The three 7969 baskets 5536 [are] three 7969 days 3117:

40:19 Yet within three 7969 days 3117 shall Pharaoh 6547 lift up 5375 8799 thy head 7218 from off thee, and shall hang 8518 8804 thee on a tree 6086; and the birds 5775 shall eat 398 8804 thy flesh 1320 from off thee.(lift…: or, reckon thee, and take thy office from thee)

40:20 And it came to pass the third 7992 day 3117, [which was] Pharaoh's 6547 birthday 3117 3205 8715, that he made 6213 8799 a feast 4960 unto all his servants 5650: and he lifted up 5375 8799 the head 7218 of the chief 8269 butler 8248 8688 and of the chief 8269 baker 644 8802 among 8432 his servants 5650.(lifted…: or, reckoned)

40:21 And he restored 7725 0 the chief 8269 butler 8248 8688 unto his butlership 4945 again 7725 8686; and he gave 5414 8799 the cup 3563 into Pharaoh's 6547 hand 3709:

40:22 But he hanged 8518 8804 the chief 8269 baker 644 8802: as Joseph 3130 had interpreted 6622 8804 to them.

40:23 Yet did not the chief 8269 butler 8248 8688 remember 2142 8804 Joseph 3130, but forgat 7911 8799 him.
