Genesis 40:5

40:5 Both of them, the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison, had a dream ¹  the same night. ²  Each man’s dream had its own meaning. ³ 

Genesis 40:20

40:20 On the third day it was Pharaoh’s birthday, so he gave a feast for all his servants. He “lifted up” ⁴  the head of the chief cupbearer and the head of the chief baker in the midst of his servants.

[40:5]  ¹ tn Heb “dreamed a dream.”

[40:5]  ² tn Heb “a man his dream in one night.”

[40:5]  ³ tn Heb “a man according to the interpretation of his dream.”

[40:20]  ⁴ tn The translation puts the verb in quotation marks because it is used rhetorically here and has a double meaning. With respect to the cup bearer it means “reinstate” (see v. 13), but with respect to the baker it means “decapitate” (see v. 19).
