Kejadian 41:9-13

41:9 Then the chief cupbearer said to Pharaoh, “Today I recall my failures. ¹  41:10 Pharaoh was enraged with his servants, and he put me in prison in the house of the captain of the guards – me and the chief baker. 41:11 We each had a dream one night; each of us had a dream with its own meaning. ²  41:12 Now a young man, a Hebrew, a servant ³  of the captain of the guards, ⁴  was with us there. We told him our dreams, ⁵  and he interpreted the meaning of each of our respective dreams for us. ⁶  41:13 It happened just as he had said ⁷  to us – Pharaoh ⁸  restored me to my office, but he impaled the baker.” ⁹
