Genesis 41:9

Verse 9 of 57. The 41st of 50 chapters in Genesis, in The Law.

5He slept and dreamed a second time; and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, healthy and good.

6Behold, seven heads of grain, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.

7The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy and full ears. Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.

8In the morning, his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all of Egypt’s magicians and wise men. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh.

9Then the chief cup bearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, “I remember my faults today.

10Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, with the chief baker.

11We dreamed a dream in one night, he and I. Each man dreamed according to the interpretation of his dream.

12There was with us there a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard, and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams. He interpreted to each man according to his dream.

13As he interpreted to us, so it was. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him.”
