Genesis 40:8-10
New English Translation
8 They told him, “We both had dreams,[a] but there is no one to interpret them.” Joseph responded, “Don’t interpretations belong to God? Tell them[b] to me.”
9 So the chief cupbearer told his dream to Joseph:[c] “In my dream, there was a vine in front of me. 10 On the vine there were three branches. As it budded, its blossoms opened and its clusters ripened into grapes.
