Genesis 40:16

וַיַּ֥רְא שַׂר־הָאֹפִ֖ים כִּ֣י טֹ֣וב פָּתָ֑ר וַיֹּ֨אמֶר֙ אֶל־יֹוסֵ֔ף אַף־אֲנִי֙ בַּחֲלֹומִ֔י וְהִנֵּ֗ה שְׁלֹשָׁ֛ה סַלֵּ֥י חֹרִ֖י עַל־רֹאשִֽׁי׃

And the chief baker saw that he had interpreted well, so he said to Yosef, “I also saw in my dream, and behold, there were three baskets of white bread on my head.”
