章節(jié)摘錄

　　The Ishmaelite sold Joseph as a slave to a man named Potiphar， who was an officer in the army of Pharaoh，the king of Egypt.Joseph was a beautiful boy，and cheerful and willing in his spirit， and able in all that he undertook； so that his master，Potiphar，became very friendly to him， and after a time he placed Joseph in charge of his house， and everything in it.For some years Joseph continued in the house of Potiphar，a slave in name， but in reality the master of all his affairs，and ruler over his fel-low-servants.　　But Potiphar's wife， who at first was very friendly to Joseph，afterward became his enemy， because Joseph would not do wrong to please her.She told her husband falsely that Joseph had done a wicked deed. Her husband believed her， and was very angry at Joseph，and put him in the prison with those who had been sent to that place for breaking the laws of the land.How hard it was for Joseph to be charged with a crime， when he had done no wrong， and to be thrust into a dark prison among wicked people ！　　But Joseph had faith in God，that at some time all would come out right： and in the prison he was cheerful，and kind，and helpful，as he had always been.The keeper of the prison saw that Joseph was not like the other men around him，and he was kind to Joseph.In a very little while Joseph was placed in charge of all his fel-low-prisoners， and took care of them；just as he had taken care of everything in Potiphar’s house. The keeper of the prison scarcely looked into the prison at all， for he had confidence in Joseph，that he would be faithful and wise in doing the work given to him. Joseph did right， and served God；and God blessed Joseph in everything.　　While Joseph was in prison， two men were sent there by the king of Egypt， because he was displeased with them. One was the king‘s chief butler， who served the king with wine；the other was the chief baker， who served him with bread. These two men were under Joseph’s care，and Joseph waited on them， for they were men of rank.　　One morning， when Joseph came into the room in the prison where the butler and the baker were kept，he found them looking quite sad.Joseph said to them：　　“ Why do you look so sad to-day?”Joseph was cheerful and happy in his spirit，and he wished others to be happy， even in prison.　　And one of the men said，“ Each one of us dreamed last night a very strange dream； and there is no one to tell us what our dreams mean.”　　For in those times，before God gave the Bible to men，he often spoke to men in dreams；and there were wise men， who could sometimes tell what the dreams meant.　　“ Tell me，”said Joseph，“what your dreams were.Perhaps my God will help me to understand them.”　　Then the chief butler told his dream.He said，“In my dream I saw a grape-vine with three branches；and as I looked the branches shot out buds，and the buds became blossoms， and the blossoms turned into clusters of ripe grapes. And I picked the grapes，and squeezed their juice into King Pharaoh's cup，and it became wine；and I gave it to King Pharaoh to drink， just as I used to do when I was beside his table.”　　Then Joseph said，“This is what your dream means.The three branches mean three days.In three days King Pharaoh will call you out of prison，and will put you back in your place；and you shall stand at his table，and shall give him his wine，as you have given it before.But when you go out of prison，please to remember me，and try to find some way to get me， too， out of this prison.For I was stolen out of the land of Canaan， and sold as a slave；and I have done nothing wrong， to deserve being put in this prison. Do speak to the king for me， that I may be set free.”　　Of course the chief butler felt very happy to hear that his dream had so pleasant a meaning；and then the chief baker spoke，hoping to have an answer as good.　　“In my dream，”said the baker，“there were three baskets of white bread on my head， one above the other， and on the topmost basket were all kinds of roasted meat and food for Pharaoh；and the birds came，and ate the food from the baskets on my head.”　　And Joseph said to the baker：　　“This is the meaning of your dream， and I am sorry to tell it to you.The three baskets are three days.In three days， by order of the king， you shall be lifted up，and hanged upon a tree；and the birds shall eat your flesh from your bones as you are hanging in the air.”　　And it came to pass， just as Joseph had said. Three days after that，King Pharaoh sent his officers to the person.They came and took out both the chief butler and the chief baker.The baker they hung up by his neck to die， and left his body for the birds to pick in pieces.The chief butler they brought back to his old place，where he waited at the king’s table， and handed him his wine to drink.　　You would have supposed that the butler would remember Joseph，who had given him the promise of freedom， and had shown such wisdom.But in his gladness， he forgot all about Joseph.And two full years passed by，while Joseph was still in prison， until he was a man thirty years old.　　But one night， King Pharaoh himself dreamed a dream， in fact two dreams in one.And in the morning he sent for all the wise men of Egypt，and told them his dreams； but there was not a man who could give the meaning of them.And the king was troubled， for he felt that the dreams had some meaning，which it was important for him to know.　　Then suddenly the chief butler， who was by the king’s table， remembered his own dream， in the prison two years before，and remembered，too， the young man who had told its meaning so exactly.And he said：　　……
