1 And it came to pass after these things, {that} the cup-bearer of the king of Egypt and the baker offended their lord the king of Egypt.
2 And Pharaoh was wroth with his two chamberlains-with the chief of the cup-bearers and with the chief of the bakers;
3 and he put them in custody into the house of the captain of the life-guard, into the tower-house, into the place where Joseph was imprisoned.
4 And the captain of the life-guard appointed Joseph to them, that he should attend on them. And they were {several} days in custody.
5 And they dreamed a dream, both of them in one night, each his dream, each according to the interpretation of his dream, the cup-bearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were imprisoned in the tower-house.
6 And Joseph came in to them in the morning, and looked on them, and behold, they were sad.
7 And he asked Pharaoh's chamberlains that were with him in custody in his lord's house, saying, Why are your faces {so} sad to-day?
8 And they said to him, We have dreamt a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said to them, {Do} not interpretations {belong} to God? tell me {your dreams}, I pray you.
9 Then the chief of the cup-bearers told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;
10 and in the vine were three branches; and it was as though it budded: its blossoms shot forth, its clusters ripened into grapes.
11 And Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand.
12 And Joseph said to him, This is the interpretation of it: the three branches are three days.
13 In yet three days will Pharaoh lift up thy head and restore thee to thy place, and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his cup-bearer.
14 Only bear a remembrance with thee of me when it goes well with thee, and deal kindly, I pray thee, with me, and make mention of me to Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house;
15 for indeed I was stolen out of the land of the Hebrews, and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.
16 And when the chief of the bakers saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, I also was in my dream, and behold, three baskets of white bread were on my head.
17 And in the uppermost basket there were all manner of victuals for Pharaoh that the baker makes, and the birds ate them out of the basket upon my head.
18 And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation of it: the three baskets are three days.
19 In yet three days will Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and hang thee on a tree; and the birds will eat thy flesh from off thee.
20 And it came to pass the third day-Pharaoh's birthday-that he made a feast to all his bondmen. And he lifted up the head of the chief of the cup-bearers, and the head of the chief of the bakers among his bondmen.
21 And he restored the chief of the cup-bearers to his office of cup-bearer again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand.
22 And he hanged the chief of the bakers, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 But the chief of the cup-bearers did not remember Joseph, and forgot him.
1 Ja pärast seda lugu sündis, et Egiptuse kuninga joogikallaja ja pagar eksisid oma isanda Egiptuse kuninga vastu.
2 Ja vaarao sai väga kurjaks oma kahe hoovkondlase peale, joogikallajate ülema ja pagarite ülema peale.
3 Ja ta andis nad vahi alla ihukaitsepealiku kotta, vangihoonesse, samasse paika, kus Joosep kinni oli.
4 Ja ihukaitsepealik pani Joosepi nende juurde, et ta neid teeniks; ja nad olid vahi all kaua aega.
5 Ja need mõlemad nägid ühel ööl unenäo, kumbki oma unenäo, kumbki oma tähendusega unenäo, Egiptuse kuninga joogikallaja ja pagar, kes vangihoones kinni olid.
6 Kui Joosep tuli hommikul nende juurde ja nägi neid, vaata, siis olid nad nukra näoga!
7 Ja ta küsis vaarao hoovkondlastelt, kes olid ühes temaga vahi all ta isanda kojas, öeldes: „Mispärast on teil täna nii pahurad näod?"
8 Ja nad vastasid temale: „Me nägime unenägusid, aga ei ole kedagi, kes need seletaks!" Ja Joosep ütles neile: „Eks seletused ole Jumala käes? Siiski jutustage mulle!"
9 Ja joogikallajate ülem jutustas oma unenäo Joosepile ning ütles temale: „Mu unenäos oli nõnda: vaata, mu ees oli viinapuu
10 ja viinapuul oli kolm oksa; see lehistus, õitses ja marjakobarad valmisid;
11 mul oli käes vaarao karikas ja ma võtsin viinamarju ja pigistasin neid vaarao karikasse ja andsin karika vaarao kätte."
12 Ja Joosep ütles temale: „Selle seletus on niisugune: kolm oksa on kolm päeva.
13 Enne kui kolm päeva on möödunud, vaarao tõstab su pea üles ja paneb sind tagasi su ametisse ja sa annad vaaraole karikat kätte endist viisi, nagu siis, kui olid ta joogikallaja.
14 Aga pea mind meeles, kui su käsi hästi käib ja tee mulle siis head ning tuleta mind vaaraole meelde ja vii mind siit hoonest välja,
15 sest mind on vargsil viisil varastatud heebrealaste maalt ja ma pole siingi teinud midagi, et mind vangiurkasse pandaks!"
16 Kui pagarite ülem nägi, et ta oli hästi seletanud, siis ta ütles Joosepile: „Ka mina nägin und, ja vaata, mu pea kohal oli kolm punutud korvi.
17 Kõige ülemises korvis oli kõiksugust vaaraole valmistatud pagarirooga, aga linnud sõid selle mu peapealsest korvist."
18 Ja Joosep vastas ning ütles: „Selle seletus on niisugune: kolm korvi on kolm päeva.
19 Enne kui kolm päeva on möödunud, vaarao võtab sul pea otsast ja poob sind puusse ning linnud söövad liha su pealt."
20 Ja kolmandal päeval, vaarao sünnipäeval, kui ta tegi kõigile oma sulastele joomapeo, sündiski, et ta tõstis üles joogikallajate ülema pea, samuti pagarite ülema pea oma sulaste seast,
21 ja pani joogikallajate ülema tema joogikallajaametisse vaaraole karikat kätte ulatama,
22 aga pagarite ülema ta laskis puua, nõnda nagu Joosep neile oli seletanud.
23 Ent joogikallajate ülem ei pidanud Joosepit meeles, vaid unustas tema ära.
