And the chief marshal gave Ioseph a charge with them, and he
served them. And they continued a season in ward. And they dreamed
either of them in one night: both the butler and the baker of the
king of Egypt which were bound in the prison house, either of them
his dream, and each man's dream of a sundry interpretation. When
Ioseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon them:
behold, they were sad. And he asked them saying, wherefore look ye
so sadly today? They answered him, we have dreamed a dream, and
have no man to declare it. And Ioseph said unto them. Interpreting
belongeth to God, but tell me yet. And the chief butler told his
dream to Ioseph and said unto him: In my dream me thought there
stood a vine before me, and in the vine were three branches, and
it was as though it budded, and her blossoms shot forth: and the
grapes thereof waxed ripe. And I had Pharao's cup in my hand, and
took of the grapes and wrung them into Pharao's cup, and delivered
Pharao's cup into his hand. And Ioseph said unto him, this is the
interpretation of it. The three branches are three days: for
within three days shall Pharao lift up thine head, and restore
thee unto thine office again, and thou shalt deliver Pharao's cup
into his hand, after the old manner, even as thou didst when thou
wast his butler.
