Genesis 41:11-13
New English Translation

11 We each had a dream one night; each of us had a dream with its own meaning.[a] 12 Now a young man, a Hebrew, a servant[b] of the captain of the guards,[c] was with us there. We told him our dreams,[d] and he interpreted the meaning of each of our respective dreams for us.[e] 13 It happened just as he had said[f] to us—Pharaoh[g] restored me to my office, but he impaled the baker.”[h]
