⁵ Then the cupbearer and the baker for the king of Egypt, who were confined in jail, both had a dream the same night, each man with his own dream and each dream with its own interpretation. ⁶ Now Joseph came to them in the morning and saw them, and behold, they were dejected. ⁷ So he asked Pharaoh’s officials who were with him in confinement in his master’s house, saying, “^(A)Why are your faces so sad today?” ⁸ Then they said to him, “^(B)We have ^[a]had a dream, and there is no one to interpret it.” Then Joseph said to them, “^(C)Do not interpretations belong to God? Recount it to me, please.”

Joseph Interprets Pharaoh’s Dream

41 Now it happened at the end of two full years that Pharaoh had a dream, and behold, he was standing by the Nile.

⁸ Now it happened that in the morning ^(A)his spirit was troubled, so he sent and called for all the ^[a](B)magicians of Egypt and all its ^(C)wise men. And Pharaoh recounted to them his dream, but ^(D)there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh.

³ Then the king said to them, “I ^[a](A)had a dream, and my spirit is troubled to know the dream.”

⁵ I saw a ^(A)dream, and it made me fearful; and these fantasies as I lay on my bed and the ^(B)visions in my head kept alarming me.
