1 Te phoeiah om tih kum a thok tue vaengah Pharaoh loh mang a man tih sokko taengah ana pai.
And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and behold, he stood by the river.
2 Te vaengah vaito pumrhih, a mueimae sakthen neh a pum aka toitup te sokko lamkah lawt halo tih capu ding ah luem uh.
And behold, there came up out of the river seven well-favored cows and fat-fleshed; and they fed in a meadow.
3 Amih hnukah a mueimae thae tih a pum aka cangkhawk vaito pumrhih te khaw sokko lamkah lawt ha thoeng bal tih sokko kaeng kah vaito kaepah pai uh.
And behold, seven other cows came up after them out of the river, ill-favored and lean-fleshed; and stood by the [other] cows upon the brink of the river.
4 Tedae a mueimae thae tih a pum aka cangkhawk vaito pumrhih loh a mueimae sakthen neh aka toitup vaito te a caak uh, vaengah Pharaoh haenghang.
And the ill-favored and lean-fleshed cows ate up the seven well-favored and fat cows. So Pharaoh awoke.
5 Te phoeiah ip tih a pabae la mang a man hatah cangvuei thamkom neh aka then parhih te a cangkong pakhat dongah tarha vuei.
And he slept and dreamed the second time: and behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good.
6 Te phoeiah aka om cangvuei thamyit parhih te tah a hnukah kanghawn loh a yah tih a hum sak.
And behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them.
7 Tedae cangvuei thamyit parhih loh cangvuei thamkom neh cangtak te a yoop vaengah Pharaoh haenghang hatah a mang la pawk.
And the seven thin ears devoured the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and behold, [it was] a dream.
8 Te dongah mincang a pha vaengah tah a mueihla a cahoeh. Egypt hmayuep boeih neh aka cueih boeih te khaw a tah tih a khue. Tedae Pharaoh loh amih taengah a mang te a thui hatah Pharaoh ham aka thuicaih thai om pawh.
And it came to pass in the morning, that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt, and all the wise men thereof: and Pharaoh told them his dream; but [there was] none that could interpret them to Pharaoh.
9 Te daengah tuitul mangpa loh Pharaoh taengah, “Tihnin ah ni kamah tholh te ka poek.
Then spoke the chief butler to Pharaoh, saying, I do remember my faults this day:
10 Pharaoh loh a sal rhoek taengah a thintoek tih kai neh buh thong mangpa te imtawt mangpa kah im thongim la n'khoh.
Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me in custody in the captain of the guard's house, [both] me, and the chief baker:
11 Tedae hlaem pakhat ah kai khaw anih khaw mang ka man rhoi hatah mang thuingaihnah te rhirha aka om te ka man rhoi.
And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he: we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.
12 Te vaengah imtawt mangpa kah sal, Hebrew cadong te kaimih taengah om. Te dongah anih ham ka thui pah rhoi dongah kaimih rhoi kah mang te kaimih rhoi ham a thuicaih. Hlang kah a mang khaw a thuicaih.
And [there was] there with us a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard; and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams; to each man according to his dream he interpreted.
13 Kaimih rhoi taengah a thuicaih vanbangla om tih a thoeng dongah kai he ka hmuen koep han khueh vaengah anih te a kuiok sak,” a ti nah tih a thui pah.
And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was: me he restored to my office, and him he hanged.
14 Te dongah Pharaoh loh Joseph te a tah tih khue sak vanbangla anih te tangrhom khui lamkah koe a doek uh tih sam a vok, himbai a tho phoeiah Pharaoh taengla cet.
Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon: and he shaved [himself], and changed his raiment, and came before Pharaoh.
15 Te vaengah Pharaoh loh Joseph la, “Mang ka man tih aka thuicaih a om pawt vaengah aka thuicaih ham nang loh mang na yakming a ti tih nang kawng te ka yaak,” a ti nah.
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and [there is] none that can interpret it: and I have heard it said of thee, [that] thou canst understand a dream to interpret it.
16 Tedae Joseph loh Pharaoh te a doo tih, “Kai moenih, Pharaoh te Pathen loh ngaimongnah neh doo bitni,” a ti nah.
And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, [It is] not in me: God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.
17 Te dongah Pharaoh loh Joseph te, “Ka mang ah sokko kaeng la ka pai. dae,
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the bank of the river:
18 Tedae vaito a pumsa aka toitup tih a suisak sakthen pumrhih te sokko lamkah lawt halo tih capu ding ah luem uh.
And behold, there came out of the river seven cows, fat-fleshed, and well-favored; and they fed in a meadow:
19 Amih hnukah vaito a tloe pumrhih halo bal dae tattloel la a suisak khaw bahoeng thae tih a pum pim. Tetla thaenah tah Egypt kho tom ah ka hmu pawh.
And behold, seven other cows came out after them, poor, and very ill-favored, and lean-fleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness:
20 Te vaengah vaito aka pim neh a thae pumrhih loh lamhma kah vaito aka tha rhoek te a caak uh.
And the lean and the ill-favored cows ate up the first seven fat cows:
21 Tedae amih ko khuila a kun uh thuk lalah a moecuek vaengkah bangla a mueimae a thae dongah amih ko khuila a kun uh te thui la a hut pawt vaengah ka haenghang.
And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them; but they [were] still ill-favored, as at the beginning. So I awoke.
22 Te phoeikah ka mang ah khaw cangvuei thamkom neh a then thamrhih te a cangkong pakhat dongah ha thoeng te lawt ka hmuh.
And I saw in my dream, and behold, seven ears came up on one stalk, full and good:
23 Amih hnukkah cangvuei parih thamyit neh aka rhae, kanghawn loh a yah tih aka hum te tarha halo van.
And behold, seven ears, withered, thin, [and] blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them:
24 Te vaengah cangvuei aka yit rhoek loh cangvuei a then thamrhih te a dolh dongah hmayuep rhoek ham ka thui pah dae kai taengah aka puen om pawh,” a ti nah.
And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I told [this] to the magicians; but [there was] none that could explain [it] to me.
25 Te dongah Joseph loh Pharaoh la, “Pharaoh kah a mang he pakhat ni. Pathen loh a saii te Pharaoh taengah a phoe coeng.
And Joseph said to Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh [is] one; God hath showed Pharaoh what he [is] about to do.
26 Vaito aka then pumrhih khaw kum rhih la om tih cangvuei a then parhih kum rih la om tih a mang te pakhat ni.
The seven good cows [are] seven years; and the seven good ears [are] seven years: the dream [is] one.
27 Amih hnukah aka thoeng vaito pumrhih aka pim tih aka thae te khaw kum rhih la om tih, cangvuei aka hi tih kanghawn loh a hum sak parhih te khokha kum rhih ni.
And the seven thin and ill-favored cows that came up after them [are] seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted with the east wind will be seven years of famine.
28 Pharaoh taengah kan thui vanbangla Pathen loh a saii hno he Pharaoh a tueng coeng.
This [is] the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh: What God [is] about to do he showeth to Pharaoh.
29 Aka lo ham kum rhih te Egypt kho tom ah khobuh khungdaeng ni te.
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:
30 Tedae a hnukah khokha kum rhih pai vetih Egypt kho kah khobuh te boeih a hnilh. Te vaengah khohmuen khaw khokha loh a khah ni.
And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land;
31 Te dongah a hnuk lamtah khokha bahoeng nah tih khobuh te vang khui loh ming mahpawh.
And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of the famine following: for it [will be] very grievous.
32 Pharaoh taengah a pabalae la mang a rhaep he khaw Pathen taeng lamloh olka a cikngae sak dongah Pathen loh tlek a saii ni.
And for that the dream was doubled to Pharaoh twice; [it is] because the thing [is] established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
33 Te dongah Pharaoh loh, aka yakming tih aka cueih hlang te so lamtah anih te Egypt kho ah khueh laeh saeh.
Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
34 Khohmuen ah hlangtawt rhoek te Pharaoh loh tuek saeh lamtah khobuh kum kumrhih khuiah Egypt kho kah panga pakhat aka coi la om saeh.
Let Pharaoh do [this], and let him appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years.
35 Te daengah ni kum then a pai vaengkah caak boeih te a coi uh eh. Te phoeiah Pharaoh kut hmuiah cangpai a tung uh vetih khopuei ah caak khaw a cuem eh.
And let them gather all the food of those good years that come, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh; and let them keep food in the cities.
36 Kho kah hnokhueh dongah caak a om daengah ni khokha loh Egypt khokhui la kum kumrhih a om halo vaengah khohmuen te khokha loh a tulnoi pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land may not perish through the famine.
37 Tekah olka ngawn tah Pharaoh mik neh a sal rhoek boeih kah mik ah a thuem sak.
And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
38 Te dongah Pharaoh loh a sal rhoek la, “Hekah hlang bangla a khuiah Pathen mueihla aka om te m'hmuh noek nim?,” a ti nah.
And Pharaoh said to his servants, Can we find [such a man] as this [is], a man in whom the spirit of God [is]?
39 Te dongah Pharaoh loh Joseph la, “Hekah boeih he Pathen loh nang m'ming sak dongah nang bangla aka thuep neh aka cueih he om pawh.
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shown thee all this, [there is] none so discreet and wise as thou [art]:
40 Kai im ah nang om lamtah nang kah olpaek te ka pilnam boeih loh ngai saeh. Ka ngolkhoel bueng nen mah nang lakah ka ham mai eh,” a ti nah.
Thou shalt be over my house, and according to thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou.
41 Te phoeiah Pharaoh loh Joseph la, “So lah, Egypt kho pum kah a soah nang ni kan hut sak coeng,” a ti nah.
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.
42 Pharaoh loh a kut dongkah a kutcaeng te a dul tih Joseph kah kut ah a buen pah. Hnitang himbai neh a khuk phoeiah a rhawn ah sui oi a oi sak.
And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck;
43 Leng dongah khaw a hnukthoi la a ngol sak tih, “Anih hmai ah cungkueng uh,” hlo a phoek uh tih Egypt kho boeih kah a soah Joseph te a khueh.
And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had: and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him [ruler] over all the land of Egypt.
44 Te phoeiah Pharaoh loh Joseph la, “Kai he Pharaoh coeng dae nang muehah hlang loh a kut khaw a kho khaw Egypt kho tom ah thueng boel saeh,” a ti nah.
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I [am] Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.
45 Joseph ming khaw Pharaoh loh Zephenathpaneah la a khue tih a yuu la Oni khosoih Potiphera canu Asenath te a paek. Te phoeiah Joseph loh Egypt kho tom a hil.
And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnath-paaneah; and he gave him for a wife Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah priest of On: and Joseph went over [all] the land of Egypt.
46 Egypt manghai Pharaoh taengla a kun vaengah Joseph te kum sawmthum lo ca pueng. Tedae Pharaoh mikhmuh lamloh Joseph nong tih Egypt kho tom boeih a hil.
And Joseph [was] thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt: and Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.
47 Te phoeiah khobuhnah kum rhih khuiah tah khohmuen te kutvang long khaw a thaih sak.
And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfulls.
48 Te dongah Egypt kho kah aka thoeng kho kum rhih kah caak boeih te a coi tih khopuei boeih ah caak a tung. Khopuei kaepvai kah khohmuen cang khaw a khui ah a khueh.
And he gathered all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities: the food of the field which [was] around every city, he laid up in the same.
49 Joseph loh cang a tung vaengah tuitunli kah laivin bangla muep a yet dongah a loeng tloel tih a tae ham khaw a toeng.
And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until he left numbering; for [it was] without number.
50 Khokha kum halo hlanah Oni khosoih Potiphera canu Asenath loh ca a cun pah tih Joseph loh capa panit a sak.
And to Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came: which Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah priest of On bore to him.
51 Te vaengah Joseph loh, “Ka thakthaenah boeih neh a pa cako boeih te Pathen loh kai n'hnilh sak,” a ti dongah a caming te a ming Manasseh a sui.
And Joseph called the name of the first-born Manasseh: For God, [said he], hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house.
52 A ca pabae ming te khaw, “Kai kah phacip phabaem kho ah Pathen loh kai m'pungtai sak,” a ti dongah Ephraim a sui.
And the name of the second called he Ephraim: for God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.
53 Tedae Egypt kho ah khobuh kum rhih aka om te bawt.
And the seven years of plenteousness that was in the land of Egypt, were ended.
54 Joseph loh a thui vanbangla aka lo ham khokha kum rhih a tong dongah paeng tom ah khokha om coeng dae Egypt kho pum ah caak om pueng.
And the seven years of dearth began to come, according as Joseph had said: and the dearth was in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
55 Tedae Egypt kho kho boeih loh a lamlum van vaengah tah pilnam loh caak ham ham te Pharaoh taengla pang uh. Te dongah Pharaoh loh Egypt rhoek boeih te, “Joseph taengla cet uh lamtah nangmih taengah a thui bangla saii uh,” a ti nah.
And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread: and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, Go to Joseph; what he saith to you, do.
56 Khokha loh diklai hman boeih te a pha vaengah a kho khuikah aka om cangpai boeih te Joseph loh a hlah tih Egypt rhoek ham a yoih pah dongah Egypt kho kah khokha te a noeng.
And the famine was over all the face of the earth; and Joseph opened all the store-houses, and sold to the Egyptians; and the famine became severe in the land of Egypt.
57 Paeng tom long khaw koivawn ham Egypt kah Joseph te a paan uh dongah paeng tom kah khokha khaw a talong.
And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph to buy [corn]; because the famine was distressing in all lands.
