¹⁵ And Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have had a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. ^(A)But I have heard it said of you that you can understand a dream, to interpret it.”

¹⁶ And I have heard of you, that you can give interpretations and ^[a]explain enigmas. ^(A)Now if you can read the writing and make known to me its interpretation, you shall be clothed with purple and have a chain of gold around your neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”

¹² Inasmuch as an excellent spirit, knowledge, understanding, interpreting dreams, solving riddles, and ^[a]explaining enigmas were found in this Daniel, ^(A)whom the king named Belteshazzar, now let Daniel be called, and he will give the interpretation.”

⁹ Then the ^(A)chief butler spoke to Pharaoh, saying: “I remember my faults this day. ¹⁰ When Pharaoh was ^(B)angry with his servants, ^(C)and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, both me and the chief baker, ^11 (D)we each had a dream in one night, he and I. Each of us dreamed according to the interpretation of his own dream. ¹² Now there was a young ^(E)Hebrew man with us there, a ^(F)servant of the captain of the guard. And we told him, and he ^(G)interpreted our dreams for us; to each man he interpreted according to his own dream. ¹³ And it came to pass, just ^(H)as he interpreted for us, so it happened. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him.”
