| BSB 1 Some time later, the king’s cupbearer and baker offended their master, the king of Egypt. | NBVE 1 Mucho tiempo después, el jefe de los panaderos y el jefe de los coperos que servían al rey de Egipto, hicieron algo que lo ofendió. |
| BSB 2 Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker, | NBVE 2–3 Por eso, el faraón se enojó con ellos y los mandó a la misma cárcel en donde estaba José, es decir, en la casa del capitán de la guardia. |
| BSB 3 and imprisoned them in the house of the captain of the guard, the same prison where Joseph was confined. | |
| BSB 4 The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he became their personal attendant. After they had been in custody for some time, | NBVE 4 Estuvieron presos un buen tiempo, y el capitán de la guardia designó a José para que los atendiera. |
| BSB 5 both of these men—the Egyptian king’s cupbearer and baker, who were being held in the prison—had a dream on the same night, and each dream had its own meaning. | NBVE 5 Cierta noche cada uno de ellos tuvo un sueño. |
| BSB 6 When Joseph came to them in the morning, he saw that they were distraught. | NBVE 6 A la mañana siguiente José los notó tristes y deprimidos. |
| BSB 7 So he asked the officials of Pharaoh who were in custody with him in his master’s house, “Why are your faces so downcast today?” | NBVE 7 ―¿Qué les pasa? ¿Por qué están tan tristes? —les preguntó. |
| BSB 8 “We both had dreams,” they replied, “but there is no one to interpret them.” Then Joseph said to them, “Don’t interpretations belong to God? Tell me your dreams.” | NBVE 8 Ellos le contestaron: ―Cada uno de nosotros tuvo un sueño anoche, y no hay quién nos interprete los sueños. |
| BSB 9 So the chief cupbearer told Joseph his dream: “In my dream there was a vine before me, | NBVE 9–10 El primero en contar su sueño fue el jefe de los coperos: ―En mi sueño vi una vid con tres ramas que brotaron, florecieron y luego dieron racimos de uva madura. |
| BSB 10 and on the vine were three branches. As it budded, its blossoms opened and its clusters ripened into grapes. | |
| BSB 11 Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes, squeezed them into his cup, and placed the cup in his hand.” | NBVE 11 Yo tenía la copa del faraón, Entonces tomé las uvas y las exprimí en la copa del faraón y se la serví. |
| BSB 12 Joseph replied, “This is the interpretation: The three branches are three days. | NBVE 12 José entonces le dijo: ―Esta es la interpretación del sueño: Las tres ramas son tres días. |
| BSB 13 Within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore your position. You will put Pharaoh’s cup in his hand, just as you did when you were his cupbearer. | NBVE 13 Dentro de tres días el faraón te va a sacar de la cárcel y te pondrá nuevamente en tu cargo de copero. |
| BSB 14 But when it goes well for you, please remember me and show me kindness by mentioning me to Pharaoh, that he might bring me out of this prison. | NBVE 14 Por favor, apiádate de mí cuando hayas vuelto a gozar del favor del faraón, y pídele que me saque de aquí. |
| BSB 15 For I was kidnapped from the land of the Hebrews, and even here I have done nothing for which they should have put me in this dungeon.” | NBVE 15 Yo soy un hebreo que fue raptado de su tierra, y ahora estoy en la cárcel sin haber hecho nada para merecer este castigo. |
| BSB 16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was favorable, he said to Joseph, “I too had a dream: There were three baskets of white bread on my head. | NBVE 16 Cuando el jefe de los panaderos vio que el primer sueño tenía un significado tan bueno, también le contó su sueño a José. ―En mi sueño llevaba tres canastos de pan sobre la cabeza. |
| BSB 17 In the top basket were all sorts of baked goods for Pharaoh, but the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head.” | NBVE 17 El canasto de encima estaba lleno de deliciosos productos de pastelería, hechos especialmente para el faraón. Pero vinieron las aves y se los comieron. |
| BSB 18 Joseph replied, “This is the interpretation: The three baskets are three days. | NBVE 18 ―Los tres canastos son tres días —le dijo José—. |
| BSB 19 Within three days Pharaoh will lift off your head and hang you on a tree. Then the birds will eat the flesh of your body.” | NBVE 19 De aquí a tres días, el faraón te quitará la cabeza, colgará tu cuerpo de un madero, y las aves comerán tus carnes. |
| BSB 20 On the third day, which was Pharaoh’s 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. | NBVE 20 Tres días más tarde, el faraón hizo una fiesta para celebrar su cumpleaños. Invitó a todos sus funcionarios y a todo el personal de su palacio. Mandó a buscar al jefe de los coperos y al jefe de los panaderos. Así que los sacaron de la cárcel y los llevaron delante del faraón. |
| BSB 21 Pharaoh restored the chief cupbearer to his position, so that he once again placed the cup in Pharaoh’s hand. | NBVE 21 Entonces el faraón colocó de nuevo al jefe de los coperos en su cargo, |
| BSB 22 But Pharaoh hanged the chief baker, just as Joseph had described to them in his interpretation. | NBVE 22 pero mandó a ahorcar al jefe de los panaderos, tal como lo había dicho José. |
| BSB 23 The chief cupbearer, however, did not remember Joseph; he forgot all about him. | NBVE 23 Sin embargo, el jefe de los coperos se olvidó por completo de José. |
