New Testament

Genesis 40:8-14 Common English Bible (CEB)

8. They answered, "We’ve both had dreams, but there’s no one to interpret them."Joseph said to them, "Don’t interpretations belong to God? Describe your dreams to me."

9. The chief wine steward described his dream to Joseph: "In my dream there was a vine right in front of me,

10. and on the vine were three branches. When it budded, its blossoms appeared, and its clusters ripened into grapes.

11. Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand, so I took the grapes, crushed them into Pharaoh’s cup, and put the cup in Pharaoh’s hand."

12. Joseph said to him, "This is the dream’s interpretation: The three branches are three days.

13. After three days, Pharaoh will give you an audience and return you to your position. You will put Pharaoh’s cup in his hand, just the way things were before when you were his wine steward.

14. But please, remember me when you are doing well and be loyal to me. Put in a good word for me to Pharaoh, so he sets me free from this prison.
