Genesis 40:5-23
Genesis 40:5-23 TPT
Then one night, they both dreamed—the steward and the baker, officials of the king of Egypt. They each had a prophetic dream with different interpretations. When Joseph came to them in the morning, he saw they looked miserable, so he asked Pharaoh’s two officials who were under his custody, “What’s wrong? Why the sad faces?” “We had dreams last night,” they answered, “and we have no one to interpret them.” And Joseph said to them, “God can interpret your dreams! Please, tell them to me.” So the chief steward shared his dream with Joseph first. He said, “In my dream, I saw a vine with three branches in front of me. I watched as it budded, then immediately it blossomed, and its clusters ripened into grapes. I was holding Pharaoh’s cup, so I took the grapes, squeezed them into his cup, and handed the cup to the king.” Joseph said to him, “God has given me the interpretation of your dream: The three branches are three days. In three days, Pharaoh will pardon you and restore you to your post. You will once again hand Pharaoh’s cup to him as you used to do as his steward. When things start to go well for you, remember me, and please be kind and mention me to Pharaoh so that he might release me from here. For I was kidnapped from the land of the Hebrews, and I have done nothing here to deserve being thrown into this dungeon.” When the chief baker saw how favorably Joseph interpreted the dream, he said to him, “Let me tell you my dream. I saw three wicker breadbaskets stacked on my head one above the other. In the top basket, I saw all kinds of bread and pastries for Pharaoh to enjoy, but the birds came and ate out of the basket above my head.” Joseph said, “God has given me the interpretation of your dream: The three baskets are three days. In three days, Pharaoh will behead you and impale you on a pole, and birds will eat the flesh off your corpse.” Three days later, it was Pharaoh’s birthday, and he threw a huge feast for all his household. He singled out among his servants the chief steward and the chief baker. He pardoned the chief steward and restored him to his post, and the steward handed Pharaoh his drink. But he had the chief baker beheaded and impaled on a pole. So, Joseph had accurately interpreted both their dreams, but the chief steward completely forgot about Joseph and never remembered him.
