Suencuek 40

1 Hekah olka a om phoeiah Egypt manghai kah tuitul neh buh thong loh a boei Egypt manghai taengah lai a hmuh rhoi.

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 Te dongah Pharaoh tah a imkhoem tuitul rhoi kah mangpa neh buh thong rhoek kah mangpa taengah a thintoek.

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

3 Te dongah amih rhoi te imtawt mangpa im kah thongim ah a khueh. Te im kah thong hmuen ah Joseph te a khoh.

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 Te dongah imtawt mangpa loh thongtla rhoek taengah Joseph te a hlah tih amih taengah thotat. Te tlam te thongim ah vuenhlaem om uh.

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 Tedae Egypt manghai loh thong im kah a khoh tuitul boei neh buh thong boei loh khoyin pakhat ah mang a man rhoi. A mang rhoi te khaw, a mang thuingaihnah khaw bok om.

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 Mincang ah amih taengla Joseph kun tih amih rhoi te a sawt hatah a hmai vik tal rhoi.

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

7 Te dongah a boei im kah thongim ah amah neh aka om Pharaoh imkhoem te a dawt tih, “Tihnin atah balae tih na hmai a thae rhoi,” a ti nah.

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 Te vaengah Joseph la mang ka man rhoi van dae aka thuicaih om pawh,” a ti nah rhoi. Te dongah Joseph loh amih rhoi te, “Thuingaihnah he Pathen hut moenih a? Kai taengah thui rhoi mai,” a ti nah.

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 Te dongah tuitul rhoek kah mangpa loh a mang te Joseph taengah a thui tih, “Ka mang ah misur kung te ka hmai ah lawt om.

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 Misur dongah a baek pathum neh a muem, a pai khaw cuen, misur kah a su khaw hmin.

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

11 Te vaengah Pharaoh kah boengloeng te ka kut ah om. Te phoeiah misur thaih te ka loh tih Pharaoh boengloeng dongah ka sui phoeiah boengloeng te Pharaoh kut ah ka paek,” a ti nah.

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 loh anih te, “A thuingaihnah he, misur baek pathum te khohnin hnin thum ni.

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

13 Hnin thum khuiah Pharaoh loh na lu te a dangrhoek vetih nang te namah hmuen la m'mael sak ni. Hnukbuet ah a tuitul la na om vaengkah khosing bangla Pharaoh te a kut dongah boengloeng na doe ni.

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 Tedae namah taengkah kai nan poek mai atah namah ham a voelphoeng vaengah kai taengah sitlohnah tueng sak mai. Pharaoh taengah kai n'thoelh lamtah kai he, he im lamloh n'khuen ne.

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 Hebrew kho lamkah a huen la n'huen phoeiah hiah khaw ba ka saii pawt maiah tangrhom la kai n'hlak uh,” a ti nah.

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 A then la a thuicaih te buh thong rhoek kah mangpa long khaw a hmuh vaengah Joseph la, “Kai khaw ka mang vaengah vaidam te kodawn pathum neh ka lu ah ka doeng.

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 Te vaengah Pharaoh kah cakok ka thong boeih te a so kah kodawn dongah om. Tedae ka lu sokah kodawn te vaa loh a caak,” a ti nah.

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 Te dongah Joseph loh a doo tih, “A thuingaihnah he tah kodawn pathum khohnin hnin thum ni.

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

19 Hnin thum khuiah Pharaoh loh na lu te na pumdong lamkah a phil vetih thing dongla n'kuiok sak phoeiah na saa te vaa loh a caak ni,” a ti nah.

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 Te phoeikah a thum khohnin dongah Pharaoh cun nah khohnin om tih a sal boeih ham buhkoknah a saii. Te vaengah tuitul rhoek kah mangpa lu neh buh thong rhoek kah mangpa lu te a sal lakli ah a dangrhoek.

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 Te vaengah tuitul rhoek kah mangpa te amah kah tuitul la koep a khueh tih Pharaoh kut ah boengloeng a doe.

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 Tedae buh thong mangpa te tah Joseph kah a thuicaih van bangla a kuiok sak.

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

23 Tedae tuitul mangpa loh Joseph te a poek mueh la a hnilh

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