"he consulted them, saying, “Why is your expression sadder today than usual?” "
— Genesis 40:7, Catholic Public Domain Version
“And he asked Pharaoh’s officers that were with him in the ward of his lord’s house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sadly to day?”
“And he asked Pharaoh’s officers that were with him in ward in his master’s house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sad to-day? ”
“He asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in custody in his master's house, saying, "Why do you look so sad today?"”
“So he asked Pharaoh’s officials, who were with him in custody in his master’s house,“Why do you look so sad today?””
“He asked them, saying: Why is your countenance sadder today than usual?”
“And he said to the servants of Pharaoh who were in prison with him, Why are you looking so sad?”
“And he asked Pharaoh’s officers that were with him in the ward of his lord’s house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sadly to day?”
But the keeper of the prison delivered them to Joseph, who ministered to them also. Some little time passed by, while they were held in custody.
And they both saw a similar dream on one night, whose interpretations should be related to one another.
And when Joseph had entered to them in the morning, and had seen them sad,
he consulted them, saying, “Why is your expression sadder today than usual?”
They responded, “We have seen a dream, and there is no one to interpret it for us.” And Joseph said to them, “Doesn’t interpretation belong to God? Recount for me what you have seen.”
The chief cupbearer explained his dream first. “I saw before me a vine,
on which were three shoots, which grew little by little into buds, and, after the flowers, it matured into grapes.
