¹⁵ And Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have had a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. ^(A)I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”

^16 (A)But I have heard that you can give interpretations and ^(B)solve problems. ^(C)Now if you can read the writing and make known to me its interpretation, ^(D)you shall be clothed with purple and have a chain of gold around your neck and ^(E)shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”

^12 (A)because an excellent spirit, knowledge, and ^(B)understanding ^(C)to interpret dreams, explain riddles, and ^(D)solve problems were found in this Daniel, ^(E)whom the king named Belteshazzar. Now let Daniel be called, and he will show the interpretation.”

⁹ Then the chief cupbearer said to Pharaoh, “I remember my offenses today. ¹⁰ When Pharaoh was ^(A)angry with his servants ^(B)and put me and the chief baker in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, ^11 (C)we dreamed on the same night, he and I, each having a dream with its own interpretation. ¹² A young Hebrew was there with us, a servant of the captain of the guard. When we told him, ^(D)he interpreted our dreams to us, giving an interpretation to each man according to his dream. ¹³ And ^(E)as he interpreted to us, so it came about. I was restored to my office, and the baker was hanged.”
