Genesis 40:3 Context
1And it came to passe after these things, that the Butler of the King of Egypt, and his Baker, had offended their lord the King of Egypt. 2And Pharaoh was wroth against two of his officers, against the chiefe of the Butlers, and against the chiefe of the Bakers. 3And he put them in ward in the house of the captaine of the guard, into the prison, the place where Ioseph was bound. 4And the captaine of the guard charged Ioseph with them, and he serued them, and they continued a season in warde. 5¶ And they dreamed a dreame both of them, each man his dreame in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dreame, the Butler and the Baker of the king of Egypt, which were bound in the prison.
