1 Après ces choses, il arriva que l’échanson et le panetier du roi d’Égypte, offensèrent leur maître, le roi d’Égypte.
2 Pharaon fut irrité contre ses deux officiers, le chef des échansons et le chef des panetiers.
3 Et il les fit mettre dans la maison du chef des gardes, dans la prison, dans le lieu où Joseph était enfermé.
4 Le chef des gardes les plaça sous la surveillance de Joseph, qui faisait le service auprès d’eux; et ils passèrent un certain temps en prison.
5 Pendant une même nuit, l’échanson et le panetier du roi d’Égypte, qui étaient enfermés dans la prison, eurent tous les deux un songe, chacun le sien, pouvant recevoir une explication distincte.
