Genesis 40:15-17
New American Standard Bible
15 For (A)I was in fact kidnapped from the land of the Hebrews, and even here I have done nothing that they should have put me into the [a]dungeon.”
16 When the chief baker saw that he had interpreted favorably, he said to Joseph, “I also saw in my dream, and behold, there were three baskets of white bread on my head; 17 and in the top basket there were some of all [b]kinds of baked food for Pharaoh, and the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head.”
