Genesis 40:6 in Context — Genesis 40

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.

6 Joseph, étant venu le matin vers eux, les regarda; et voici, ils étaient tristes.

7 Alors il questionna les officiers de Pharaon, qui étaient avec lui dans la prison de son maître, et il leur dit: Pourquoi avez-vous mauvais visage aujourd’hui?

8 Ils lui répondirent: Nous avons eu un songe, et il n’y a personne pour l’expliquer. Joseph leur dit: N’est-ce pas à Dieu qu’appartiennent les explications? Racontez-moi donc votre songe.
