Genesis 41:13-15
New English Translation
13 It happened just as he had said[a] to us—Pharaoh[b] restored me to my office, but he impaled the baker.”[c]
14 Then Pharaoh summoned[d] Joseph. So they brought him quickly out of the dungeon; he shaved himself, changed his clothes, and came before Pharaoh. 15 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I had a dream,[e] and there is no one who can interpret[f] it. But I have heard about you, that[g] you can interpret dreams.”[h]
