⁹ So the chief cupbearer told his dream to Joseph and said to him, “In my dream there was a vine before me, ¹⁰ and on the vine there were three branches. As soon as it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and the clusters ripened into grapes. ¹¹ Pharaoh's cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup and placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand.” ¹² Then Joseph said to him, ^(A)“This is its interpretation: ^(B)the three branches are three days. ¹³ In three days Pharaoh will ^(C)lift up your head and restore you to your office, and you shall place Pharaoh's cup in his hand as formerly, when you were his cupbearer. ¹⁴ Only remember me, when it is well with you, and please do me the kindness to mention me to Pharaoh, and so get me out of this house. ¹⁵ For ^(D)I was indeed stolen out of the land of the Hebrews, and ^(E)here also I have done nothing that they should put me into the pit.”

²⁰ On the third day, which was Pharaoh's ^(A)birthday, he made a feast for all his servants and ^(B)lifted up the head of the chief cupbearer and the head of the chief baker among his servants. ^21 (C)He restored the chief cupbearer to his position, and ^(D)he placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand. ²² But he ^(E)hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them. ²³ Yet the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.
