01:039:017 And she spake unto him according to these words, saying, The
Hebrew servant, which thou hast brought unto us, came in unto me to
mock me:
01:039:018 And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that
he left his garment with me, and fled out.
01:039:019 And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his
wife, which she spake unto him, saying, After this manner did thy
servant to me; that his wrath was kindled.
01:039:020 And Joseph's master took him, and put him into the prison, a
place where the king's prisoners were bound: and he was there in the
prison.
01:039:021 But the LORD was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave
him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
01:039:022 And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all
the prisoners that were in the prison; and whatsoever they did there,
he was the doer of it.
01:039:023 The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing that was
under his hand; because the LORD was with him, and that which he did,
the LORD made it to prosper.
01:040:001 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.
01:040:002 And Pharaoh was wroth against two of his officers, against
the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
01:040:003 And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the
guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
01:040:004 And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and
he served them: and they continued a season in ward.
01:040:005 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.
01:040:006 And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon
them, and, behold, they were sad.
01:040:007 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?
01:040:008 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.
01:040:009 And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to
him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;
01:040:010 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:
01:040:011 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.
01:040:012 And Joseph said unto him, This is the interpretation of it:
The three branches are three days:
01:040:013 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.
