Settings

39:1Now Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an official of Pharaoh, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had brought him down there. Compare
39:2And Jehovah was with Joseph, and he became a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master, the Egyptian. Compare
39:3And his master saw that Jehovah was with him and that Jehovah caused all that he did to prosper in his hand. Compare
39:4And Joseph found favor in his sight, and he ministered to him; and he made him overseer of his house and put all that he had in his charge. Compare
39:5And from the time he made him overseer in his house and put him over all that he had, Jehovah blessed the Egyptian's house on account of Joseph; and the blessing of Jehovah was upon all that he had, in the house and in the field. Compare
39:6And he left all that he had in Joseph's charge; and with him there, he was not concerned about anything except the food that he ate. And Joseph was handsome in form and handsome in appearance. Compare
39:7Now after these things his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph and said, Lie with me. Compare
39:8But he refused and said to his master's wife, Behold, with me here, my master is not concerned about anything in the house, and he has put everything he has in my charge. Compare
39:9There is no one greater in this house than I, and he has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great evil, and sin against God? Compare
39:10And although she spoke to Joseph day after day, he would not listen to her to lie beside her or be with her. Compare
39:11And one such day he went into the house to do his work, and none of the men of the house were there in the house. Compare
39:12And she grabbed him by his garment, saying, Lie with me! But he left his garment in her hand, and fled and went outside. Compare
39:13And when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had fled outside, Compare
39:14She called to the men of her house and spoke to them, saying, See, he has brought in a Hebrew man to us to mock us. He came in to me to lie with me, and I called out with a loud voice; Compare
39:15And when he heard that I lifted up my voice and called out, he left his garment beside me, and fled and went outside. Compare
39:16And she placed his garment beside her until his master came home. Compare
39:17And she spoke to him with these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought to us, came in to me to mock me. Compare
39:18And when I lifted up my voice and called out, he left his garment beside me and fled outside. Compare
39:19And when his master heard the words of his wife that she had spoken to him, saying, This is the way your servant treated me; his anger burned. Compare
39:20And Joseph's master took him and put him into the prison, the place where the king's prisoners were confined. But while he was there in the prison, Compare
39:21Jehovah was with Joseph; and He extended kindness to him and gave him favor in the sight of the chief jailer. Compare
39:22And the chief jailer put in Joseph's charge all the prisoners who were in the prison; and whatever was done there, he was the one to do it. Compare
39:23The chief jailer did not supervise anything that was in his charge, because Jehovah was with him; and whatever he did, Jehovah caused it to prosper. Compare
40:1And after these things, the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt offended their lord, the king of Egypt. Compare
40:2And Pharaoh was angry with his two officials, the chief of the cupbearers and the chief of the bakers. Compare
40:3And he put them in custody at the house of the captain of the guard, in the prison, the place where Joseph was confined. Compare
40:4And the captain of the guard put Joseph in charge of them, and he ministered to them; and they were in custody for some time. Compare
40:5And the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison, both of them had a dream, each man with his own dream in one night, and each dream with its own interpretation. Compare
40:6And Joseph came to them in the morning and looked at them, and they were troubled. Compare
40:7And he asked Pharaoh's officials, who were with him in custody in his master's house, saying, Why are your faces so sad today? Compare
40:8And they said to him, We have had a dream, and there is no one to interpret it. And Joseph said to them, Do not interpretations belong to God? Please tell it to me. Compare
40:9And the chief of the cupbearers told his dream to Joseph and said to him, In my dream there was a vine before me, Compare
40:10And on the vine were three branches. And as soon as it budded, its blossoms came out, and its clusters ripened into grapes. Compare
40:11And Pharaoh's cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes and squeezed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I put the cup in Pharaoh's hand. Compare
40:12And Joseph said to him, This is its interpretation: The three branches are three days. Compare
40:13Within three more days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your office, and you will put Pharaoh's cup into his hand according to your former custom when you were his cupbearer. Compare
40:14But remember my being with you when it is well with you, and please do me a kindness and make mention of me to Pharaoh and so have me brought out of this house. Compare
40:15For I was actually kidnapped out of the land of the Hebrews, and here also I have not done anything that they should put me into the dungeon. Compare
40:16Now when the chief of the bakers saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, I also saw this in my dream: There were three baskets of white bread on my head. Compare
40:17And in the uppermost basket there were all sorts of baked food for Pharaoh, and the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head. Compare
40:18And Joseph answered and said, This is its interpretation: The three baskets are three days. Compare
40:19Within three more days Pharaoh will lift up your head from you and will hang you on a tree, and the birds will eat your flesh from you. Compare
40:20And on the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, he made a feast for all his servants; and he lifted up the head of the chief of the cupbearers and the head of the chief of the bakers among his servants. Compare
40:21And he restored the chief of the cupbearers to his cupbearing, and he put the cup into Pharaoh's hand; Compare
40:22But the chief of the bakers he hanged, just as Joseph had interpreted to them. Compare
40:23Yet the chief of the cupbearers did not remember Joseph, but forgot him. Compare
41:1And at the end of two full years Pharaoh had a dream, and there he was, standing by the River. Compare
41:2And there came up out of the River seven cows, fine-looking and fat-fleshed; and they grazed in the reed grass. Compare
41:3Then there came up after them seven other cows out of the River, ugly-looking and thin-fleshed; and they stood beside the other cows on the bank of the River. Compare
41:4And the ugly-looking and thin-fleshed cows ate up the seven fine-looking and fat cows. Then Pharaoh awoke. Compare
41:5And he slept and dreamed a second time. And there were seven ears of grain, coming up on one stalk, fat and good. Compare
41:6Then there were seven ears, thin and scorched by the east wind, that sprouted after them. Compare
41:7And the thin ears swallowed up the seven fat and full ears. Then Pharaoh awoke, and it was a dream. Compare
41:8And in the morning his spirit was troubled, so he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt and all its wise men; and Pharaoh told them his dream, but there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh. Compare
41:9Then the chief cupbearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my sins today. Compare
41:10Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and he put me in custody at the house of the captain of the guard, both me and the chief baker. Compare
41:11And we both had a dream in one night, I and he; each of us had a dream with its own interpretation. Compare
41:12And a young Hebrew man was there with us, a servant of the captain of the guard. And we told him our dreams, and he interpreted them for us; to each one he interpreted according to his dream. Compare
41:13And as he interpreted to us, so it happened; Pharaoh restored me to my office, and he hanged the baker. Compare
