Genesis 40:12
Compare all
10 and in the vine were three branches; it was as though it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and its clusters brought forth ripe grapes.
11 Then Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes and pressed them into Pharaoh’s cup, and placed the cup in Pharaoh’s hand.”
12 And Joseph said to him, a“This is the interpretation of it: The three branches bare three days.  
13 Now within three days Pharaoh will alift up your head and restore you to your1 place, and you will put Pharaoh’s cup in his hand according to the former manner, when you were his butler.  
14 But aremember me when it is well with you, and bplease show kindness to me; make mention of me to Pharaoh, and get me out of this house.  
15 For indeed I was astolen away from the land of the Hebrews; band also I have done nothing here that they should put me into the dungeon.”  
16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, “I also was in my dream, and there were three1 white baskets on my head.  
17 In the uppermost basket were all kinds of baked goods for Pharaoh, and the birds ate them out of the basket on my head.”
18 So Joseph answered and said, a“This is the interpretation of it: The three baskets are three days.  
19 aWithin three days Pharaoh will lift1 off your head from you and bhang you on a tree; and the birds will eat your flesh from you.”  
20 Now it came to pass on the third day, which was Pharaoh’s abirthday, that he bmade a feast for all his servants; and he clifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants.  
21 Then he arestored the chief butler to his butlership again, and bhe placed the cup in Pharaoh’s hand.
