WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[9] Then the chief cupbearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, "I remember my faults today. [10] Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, me and the chief baker. [11] We dreamed a dream in one night, I and he. We dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream. [12] There was with us there a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard, and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams. To each man according to his dream he interpreted. [13] It happened, as he interpreted to us, so it was: he restored me to my office, and he hanged him."
