New Testament

Genesis 41:8-15 New King James Version (NKJV)

8. Now it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt and all its wise men. And Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them for Pharaoh.

9. Then the chief butler spoke to Pharaoh, saying: “I remember my faults this day.

10. When Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, both me and the chief baker,

11. we each had a dream in one night, he and I. Each of us dreamed according to the interpretation of his own dream.

12. Now there was a young Hebrew man with us there, a servant of the captain of the guard. And we told him, and he interpreted our dreams for us; to each man he interpreted according to his own dream.

13. And it came to pass, just as he interpreted for us, so it happened. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him.”

14. Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him quickly out of the dungeon; and he shaved, changed his clothing, and came to Pharaoh.

15. And Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have had a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. But I have heard it said of you that you can understand a dream, to interpret it.”
