Genesis Chapter 40
So, Pharaoh's butler and baker in Egypt straight up messed with him. Major sus vibes.
And it came to pass after these things, {that} the butler of the king of Egypt and {his} baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt.
Pharaoh was super mad at his two homies, the head butler and the chief baker.
And Pharaoh was wroth against two {of} his officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
He threw them in the captain's crib, where Joseph was also chillin'.
And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph {was} bound.
The captain was like, "Yo Joseph, handle these dudes," and they all vibed together for a minute.
And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: and they continued a season in ward.
That night, both of them had dreams that were lit in their own way, but nobody could break them down.
And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his dream in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, which {were} bound in the prison.
When Joseph rolled in the next morning, he peeped that they were looking all bummed, no cap.
And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon them, and, behold, they {were} sad.
He was like, "Why y’all looking so down today?"
And he asked Pharaoh's officers that {were} with him in the ward of his lord's house, saying, Wherefore look ye {so} sadly to day? {look...: Heb. are your faces evil?}
They said, "We had these dreams, but we ain't got nobody to interpret them." Joseph replied, "Ain't interpretations God's gig? Spill the tea."
And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and {there is} no interpreter of it. And Joseph said unto them, {Do} not interpretations {belong} to God? tell me {them}, I pray you.
The chief butler told Joseph his dream, saying, "In my dream, there was a vine right in front of me."
And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine {was} before me;
The vine had three branches and looked ready to bud, with blossoms popping off and ripe grapes coming through.
And in the vine {were} three branches: and it {was} as though it budded, {and} her blossoms shot forth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes:
I had Pharaoh's cup in my hand, so I squished the grapes and poured it into his cup. Here you go, Pharaoh.
And Pharaoh's cup {was} in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand.
Joseph was like, "Let me break it down for you: those three branches mean three days, no cap."
And Joseph said unto him, This {is} the interpretation of it: The three branches {are} three days:
"In three days, Pharaoh’s gonna vibe check you, bring you back to your spot, and you’ll be handing him his cup again, just like before."
Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head, and restore thee unto thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler. {lift...: or, reckon}
"But when you’re living your best life, don't forget me, and mention me to Pharaoh so I can bounce from this place."
But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house: {think...: Heb. remember me with thee}
"For real, I got taken from my home, and I haven’t done anything to end up stuck in this dungeon, fr."
For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews: and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.
The chief baker, catching the good vibes, said to Joseph, "I had a dream too, and I was balancing three white baskets on my head."
When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph, I also {was} in my dream, and, behold, {I had} three white baskets on my head: {white: or, full of holes}
"The top basket was packed with all kinds of baked goods for Pharaoh, but birds were snacking on them right off my head."
And in the uppermost basket {there was} of all manner of bakemeats for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head. {bakemeats...: Heb. meat of Pharaoh, the work of a baker, or, cook}
Joseph responded, "Here’s the scoop: those three baskets mean three days."
And Joseph answered and said, This {is} the interpretation thereof: The three baskets {are} three days:
"In three days, Pharaoh’s gonna lift you up and hang you on a tree; the birds will feast on your flesh, that's savage."
Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee. {lift...: or, reckon thee, and take thy office from thee}
"On the third day, which was Pharaoh’s birthday, he threw a lit feast for all his crew, lifting up the chief butler and chief baker."
And it came to pass the third day, {which was} Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants. {lifted...: or, reckoned}
He brought the head butler back to his old gig, handing him the cup like, "You vibin' again."
And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand:
But the head baker caught the ultimate L: he was hanged, just like Joseph said.
But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.
Still, the head butler totally ghosted Joseph and forgot all about him, no cap.
Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgat him.
