Genesis 40 King James Bible (1769) | 23 versitos |
1 And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt.
2 And Pharaoh was wroth against two of his officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
3 And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
4 And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: and they continued a season in ward.
5 And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his dream in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, which were bound in the prison.
6 And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon them, and, behold, they were sad.
7 And he asked Pharaoh's officers that were with him in the ward of his lord's house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sadly to day?
8 And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell me them, I pray you.
9 And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;
10 And in the vine were three branches: and it was as though it budded, and her blossoms shot forth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes:
11 And Pharaoh's cup was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand.
12 And Joseph said unto him, This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days:
13 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head, and restore thee unto thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler.
14 But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:
15 For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews: and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.
16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph, I also was in my dream, and, behold, I had three white baskets on my head:
17 And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of bakemeats for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head.
18 And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation thereof: The three baskets are three days:
19 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.
20 And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants.
21 And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand:
22 But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgat him.

Genesis 40,1-23

Chapter XL.

1 The Butler and Baker of Pharaoh in prison. 4 Ioseph hath charge of them. 5 He interpreteth their dreames. 20 They come to passe according to his interpretation. 23 The ingratitude of the Butler.
1 And it came to passe after these things, that the Butler of the King of Egypt, and his Baker, had offended their lord the King of Egypt.
2 And Pharaoh was wroth against two of his officers, against the chiefe of the Butlers, and against the chiefe of the Bakers.
3 And he put them in ward in the house of the captaine of the guard, into the prison, the place where Ioseph was bound.
4 And the captaine of the guard charged Ioseph with them, and he serued them, and they continued a season in warde.
5 And they dreamed a dreame both of them, each man his dreame in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dreame, the Butler and the Baker of the king of Egypt, which were bound in the prison.
6 And Ioseph came in vnto them in the morning, and looked vpon them, and behold, they were sad.
7 And he asked Pharaohs officers that were with him in the warde of his lords house, saying, wherefore [ Hebrew: are your faces euill? ] looke ye so sadly to day?
8 And they said vnto him, we haue dreamed a dreame, and there is no interpreter of it. And Ioseph said vnto

[He interpreteth seuerall dreames.]

them, Doe not interpretations belong to God? tell me them, I pray you.
9 And the chiefe Butler tolde his dreame to Ioseph, and said to him; In my dreame, beholde, a vine was before mee:
10 And in the vine were three branches, and it was as though it budded, and her blossoms shot foorth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes.
11 And Pharaohs cup was in my hand, and I tooke the grapes and pressed them into Pharaohs cup: and I gaue the cup into Pharaohs hand.
12 And Ioseph said vnto him, This is the interpretation of it: the three branches are three dayes,
13 Yet within three dayes shall Pharaoh [ Or, reckon.] lift vp thine head, and restore thee vnto thy place, and thou shalt deliuer Pharaohs cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his Butler.
14 But [ Hebrew: Remember mee with thee.] thinke on me, when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindenesse, I pray thee, vnto mee, and make mention of me vnto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house.
15 For indeed I was stollen away out of the land of the Hebrewes: and here also haue I done nothing, that they should put me into the dungeon.
16 When the chiefe Baker saw, that the interpretation was good, he said vnto Ioseph, I also was in my dreame, and behold, I had three [ Or, full of holes.] white baskets on my head.
17 And in the vppermost basket there was of all maner of [ Hebrew: meat of Pharaoh, the worke of a baker, or cooke.] bake-meats for Pharaoh, and the birds did eat them out of the basket vpon my head.
18 And Ioseph answered, and said, This is the interpretation thereof: the three baskets are three dayes:
19 Yet within three dayes shall Pharaoh [ Or, reckon thee, and take thy office from thee .] lift vp thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree, and the birds shall eate thy flesh from off thee.
20 And it came to passe the third day, which was Pharaohs birth day, that hee made a feast vnto all his seruaunts: and he [ Or, reckoned.] lifted vp by the head of the chiefe Butler, and of the chiefe Baker among his seruants.
21 And he restored the chiefe Butler vnto his Butlership againe, and hee gaue the cup into Pharaohs hand.
22 But he hanged the chiefe Baker, as Ioseph had interpreted to them.

 [He interpreteth seuerall dreames.]

23 Yet did not the chiefe Butler remember Ioseph, but forgate him.
