Genesis 40

1 Ni nazetto maw oh pacoengah, Izip siangpahrang ih boengloeng sinkung hoi buh thongkung loe angmah ih angraeng Izip siangpahrang koeh ai ih hmuen to sak hoi.

And it came to pass after these things, [that] the cup-bearer of the king of Egypt and the baker offended their lord the king of Egypt.

2 Faro loe boengloeng sinkung hoi buh thongkung, angmah ih toksah angraeng hnik nuiah paroeai palungphui.

And Pharaoh was wroth with his two chamberlains — with the chief of the cup-bearers and with the chief of the bakers;

3 To pongah nihnik to Joseph thongkrakhaih ahmuen, im toepkung ohhaih im ah thong pakhrak hmaek.

and he put them in custody into the house of the captain of the life-guard, into the tower-house, into the place where Joseph was imprisoned.

4 Thongim ukkung mah nihnik to Joseph ban ah paek moe, Joseph mah nihnik to khetzawn; ni nazetto maw loe to imthung ah thongkrak hoi.

And the captain of the life-guard appointed Joseph to them, that he should attend on them. And they were [several] days in custody.

5 To tiah thongim thungah oh hoi pacoengah, Izip siangpahrang ih boengloeng sinkung hoi buh thongkung mah, qumto naah angmah hnik hnuksak ih amang to a sak hoi hmaek.

And they dreamed a dream, both of them in one night, each his dream, each according to the interpretation of his dream, the cup-bearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were imprisoned in the tower-house.

6 Joseph loe khawnbang khawnthaw ah nihnik khaeah caeh; nihnik to khet naah, palung a set hoi.

And Joseph came in to them in the morning, and looked on them, and behold, they were sad.

7 To pongah angmah ih angraeng im ah angmah hoi nawnto thongkrah Faro ih toksah angraeng hnik khaeah, Tipongah vaihni loe palung na set hoi parai loe? tiah a naa.

And he asked Pharaoh's chamberlains that were with him in custody in his lord's house, saying, Why are your faces [so] sad to-day?

8 Nihnik mah, Amang ka sak hoi, toe lehkung om ai, tiah a naa hoi. To pongah Joseph mah nihnik khaeah, Sithaw mah leh thai ai, tiah na poek hoi maw? Na mang to na thui hoih, tiah a naa.

And they said to him, We have dreamt a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said to them, [Do] not interpretations [belong] to God? tell me [your dreams], I pray you.

9 To pongah boengloeng sinkung mah angmah ih amang to Joseph khaeah thuih pae; anih khaeah, Ka mang ah, misurkung to ka hmaa ah oh;

Then the chief of the cup-bearers told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;

10 to misurkung pongah tanghang thumto oh; tanghang nuiah tadok to tacawt moe, apawk to apawk, athaih to tacawt moe, hminh;

and in the vine were three branches; and it was as though it budded: its blossoms shot forth, its clusters ripened into grapes.

11 Faro ih boengloeng loe ka ban ah oh; misurthaih to ka pakhrik moe, Faro ih boengloeng ah ka pasawh pae, boengloeng to a ban ah ka paek, tiah a thuih pae.

And Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand.

12 Joseph mah anih khaeah, Amang thuih koehhaih loe hae tiah oh; tanghang thumto loe ni thumto thuih koehhaih ih ni.

And Joseph said to him, This is the interpretation of it: the three branches are three days.

13 Ni thumto thungah Faro mah na lu to atoeng tahang ueloe, nangmah ih ahmuen ah na suem let tih; canghniah boengloeng sinkung ah na oh baktih toengah, Faro ban ah boengloeng paekkung ah na om let tih.

In yet three days will Pharaoh lift up thy head and restore thee to thy place, and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his cup-bearer.

14 Khosak hoihaih na tongh naah, kai hae na pahnet hmah loe, ka nuiah na tahmenhaih amtuengsak ah; Faro khaeah kai ih kawng to na thui pae ah loe, hae thongim thung hoiah na loisak toeng ah;

Only bear a remembrance with thee of me when it goes well with thee, and deal kindly, I pray thee, with me, and make mention of me to Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house;

15 kai loe Hebru prae thung hoiah ang paquk o ving moe, hae prae ah doeh sakpazaehaih om ai ah thongim thungah ang pakhrak o let bae, tiah a naa.

for indeed I was stolen out of the land of the Hebrews, and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.

16 Joseph mah amang kahoih ah leh pae, tito buh thong kami mah panoek naah, Joseph khaeah, Kai doeh amang ka sak toeng, Khenah, ka lu nuiah takaw suekhaih kanglung takho thumto ka koeng;

And when the chief of the bakers saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, I also was in my dream, and behold, three baskets of white bread were on my head.

17 ranui koek ih takho pongah loe Faro han ih takaw congca to oh; toe ka lu nui ih takaw loe tavaanawk mah caak o, tiah a naa.

And in the uppermost basket there were all manner of victuals for Pharaoh that the baker makes, and the birds ate them out of the basket upon my head.

18 Joseph mah, Amang thuih koehhaih loe hae tiah oh; takho thumto loe ni thumto thuih koehhaih ih ni;

And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation of it: the three baskets are three days.

19 ni thumto thungah Faro mah na lu to pathawk tahang ueloe, thing pongah na bang tih; to pacoengah na ngan to tavaanawk mah caa o tih, tiah a naa.

In yet three days will Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and hang thee on a tree; and the birds will eat thy flesh from off thee.

20 Ni thumto naah Faro tapenhaih ni to oh; to naah anih mah angmah ih tamnanawk boih hanah buhraenghaih to sak pae; a tamnanawk salakah boengloeng sin kami hoi buh thong kami ih lu to atoengh pae tahang;

And it came to pass the third day — Pharaoh's birthday — that he made a feast to all his bondmen. And he lifted up the head of the chief of the cup-bearers, and the head of the chief of the bakers among his bondmen.

21 boengloeng sin kami hanah loe tok to a paek let pongah, anih loe Faro ban ah boengloeng paek kami ah oh let;

And he restored the chief of the cup-bearers to his office of cup-bearer again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand.

22 Toe buh thong kami loe Joseph mah thuih pae ih lok baktih toengah, thing nuiah a bangh.

And he hanged the chief of the bakers, as Joseph had interpreted to them.

23 Toe boengloeng sin kami mah Joseph to panoek ai, pahnet ving boeh.

But the chief of the cup-bearers did not remember Joseph, and forgot him.
