Genesis 40:16-23

16When the chiefH7218 bakerH644 sawH7200 that the interpretationH6622 was goodH2896, he saidH559 unto JosephH3130, I also was in my dreamH2472, and, beholdH2009, threeH7969 basketsH5536 of whiteH2751 breadH2751 were on my headH7218: 17and in the uppermost basketH5536 there was of allH3605 manner of bakemeats for PharaohH6547; and the birdsH5775 didH4639 eatH398 them outH4480 of the basketH5536 uponH5921 my headH7218. 18And JosephH3130 answeredH559 and saidH559, This is the interpretationH6623 thereof: the threeH7969 basketsH5536 are threeH7969 daysH3117; 19withinH5921 yet threeH7969 daysH3117 shall PharaohH6547 liftH5375 upH5375 thy headH7218 from offH5921 thee, and shall hangH8518 thee on a treeH6086; and the birdsH5775 shall eatH398 thy fleshH1320 from offH5921 thee. 20And it cameH1961 to passH1961 the thirdH7992 dayH3117, whichH4960 was Pharaoh’sH6547 birthdayH3205, that he madeH6213 a feastH4960 unto allH3605 his servantsH5650: and he liftedH5375 upH5375 the headH7218 of the chiefH7218 butler and the headH7218 of the chiefH7218 bakerH644 among his servantsH5650. 21And he restoredH7725 the chiefH8269 butler unto his butlership againH7725; and he gaveH5414 the cupH3563 intoH5921 Pharaoh’sH6547 handH3709: 22but he hangedH8518 the chiefH8269 bakerH644: as JosephH3130 had interpretedH6622 to them. 23Yet didH3808 notH3808 the chiefH8269 butler rememberH2142 JosephH3130, but forgat him.
