16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was favorable, he said to Joseph (YHWH has added), “I too had a dream: There were three baskets of white bread on my head. 17 In the top basket were all sorts of baked goods for Pharaoh (great house), but the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head.” 18 Joseph (YHWH has added) replied, “This is the interpretation: The three baskets are three days. 19 Within three days Pharaoh (great house) will lift off your head and hang you on a tree (impale you on a pole). Then the birds will eat the flesh of your body.” 20 On the third day, which was Pharaoh’s (great house) birthday, he held a feast for all his officials, and in their presence he lifted up the heads of the chief cupbearer and the chief baker. 21 Pharaoh restored the chief cupbearer to his position, so that he once again placed the cup in Pharaoh’s (great house) hand. 22 But Pharaoh hanged the chief baker, just as Joseph (YHWH has added) had described to them in his interpretation \had interpreted to them/. 23 The chief cupbearer, however, did not remember Joseph (YHWH has added); he forgot all about him.
