12:41

يَا صَاحِبَيِ السِّجْنِ أَمَّا أَحَدُكُمَا فَيَسْقِي رَبَّهُ خَمْرًا ۖ وَأَمَّا الْآخَرُ فَيُصْلَبُ فَتَأْكُلُ الطَّيْرُ مِن رَّأْسِهِ ۚ قُضِيَ الْأَمْرُ الَّذِي فِيهِ تَسْتَفْتِيَانِ

 

Ya sahibayi ssijni amma ahadukuma fayasqee rabbahu khamran wa amma alakharu fayuslabu fata'kulu attairu min ra'sih; qudiya al’amru allathee feehi tastaftiyaan

The Aya says:

O my two companions of the prison, As for one of you then he will pour wine for his master, and as for the other then he will be crucified and the birds will eat from his head.  Settled the matter in which you sought opinion.

 

My personal note:

He explained to the two his understanding of their dreams and declared to them both that it is going to happen. He did that after having explained to them his religion and theology.  Therefore, subtly inviting them to worship as he does.
