20 Le troisième jour, jour de la naissance de Pharaon, il fit un festin à tous ses serviteurs; et il éleva la tête du chef des échansons et la tête du chef des panetiers, au milieu de ses serviteurs:
21 il rétablit le chef des échansons dans sa charge d’échanson, pour qu’il mît la coupe dans la main de Pharaon;
