Yusuf 12:36

Qur'an 12:36

وَدَخَلَ مَعَهُ ٱلسِّجْنَ فَتَيَانِ ۖ قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَآ إِنِّىٓ أَرَىٰنِىٓ أَعْصِرُ خَمْرًا ۖ وَقَالَ ٱلْـَٔاخَرُ إِنِّىٓ أَرَىٰنِىٓ أَحْمِلُ فَوْقَ رَأْسِى خُبْزًا تَأْكُلُ ٱلطَّيْرُ مِنْهُ ۖ نَبِّئْنَا بِتَأْوِيلِهِۦٓ ۖ إِنَّا نَرَىٰكَ مِنَ ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ

And there entered the prison with him two young men. One of them said, "Indeed, I have seen myself [in a dream] pressing [grapes for] wine." The other said, "Indeed, I have seen myself carrying upon my head [some] bread, from which the birds were eating. Inform us of its interpretation; indeed, we see you to be of those who do good."

Svenska · Bernström

OCH [DET hände att] två unga män kastades i fängelse tillsammans med Josef. En av dem sade: "Jag har [i en dröm] sett mig själv pressa vin." Och den andre sade: "Och jag har [i drömmen] sett mig själv bära bröd på huvudet och fåglarna åt av det." [Och de vände sig till Josef och sade:] "Säg oss vad detta betyder! Vi förstår att du är en av dem som kan [tyda drömmar] på rätt sätt."
