Semtilbu 40
1 Hicheng thilsoh kichai nung chun Pharaoh lengpa natong ju vaihompa le an vai hompan apupa Egypt lengpa doumah abol lhon in achonse lhontai.
And it comes to pass, after these things—the butler of the king of Egypt and the baker have sinned against their lord, against the king of Egypt;
2 Hiche lamkai teni chunga hi Pharaoh nasatah in alunghang tan ahi.
and Pharaoh is angry against his two eunuchs, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers,
3 Chuin Pharaoh in amani chu Joseph umna lengpa songkul natong ho umna ah akoiyin ahi.
and puts them in confinement in the house of the chief of the executioners, into the round-house, the place where Joseph [is] a prisoner,
4 Songkul ngahpan amani chu Joseph thanei na noiya a umsah in Joseph in jong amani chu vetkolna anei jing in ahi.
and the chief of the executioners charges Joseph with them, and he serves them; and they are in confinement [for some] days.
5 Jan khat chun songkul insunga kihen teni Egypt lengpa juvaihompa le an vaihompa chun mang khat cheh, amang ledohna toh kilhon cheh-in anei lhon in ahi.
And they dream a dream both of them, each his dream in one night, each according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker whom the king of Egypt has, who [are] prisoners in the round-house.
6 Hichun Joseph in amani chu jingkah lama amailhon lunglhai lou chu ahedohtan Joseph in amani chu adongin, ibola nang teni namai lhon kipah lou ham ati.
And Joseph comes to them in the morning, and sees them, and behold, they [are] morose;
7 Joseph in adong in, “Sopi teni ibola namai lhon lhailou ham,” ati.
and he asks Pharaoh’s eunuchs who [are] with him in confinement in the house of his lord, saying, “Why [are] your faces sad today?”
8 Amanin adon but lhon in, “Janlhah in keinin mang kanei gel lhon in amavang koi machan kamang ipi kisei na ahi aledoh thei aumpoi ati lhon e, ahin Joseph in adonbut in,” mang in ipi ahetsah dichu Pathen kin ahi. Chule namang lhon chu neisei peh lhon in ati.
And they say to him, “We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it”; and Joseph says to them, “Are interpretations not with God? Please recount to me.”
9 Hichun khon dom le a pang lamkai pa chun Joseph chu amang ho chu asei peh tai. Ka manga lengpi bah ka masanga ka mun.
And the chief of the butlers recounts his dream to Joseph and says to him, “In my dream, then behold, a vine [is] before me!
10 Hiche lengpi phunga chun abah thum ajam kamun, gang tah in ahung mum in chu in apah lha tai, hiche aga hochu lengpithei ga ahung hitai.
And in the vine [are] three branches, and it [is] as it were flourishing; gone up has its blossom, its clusters have ripened grapes;
11 Pharaoh chakhon chu ka khut chunga ana um'in, hichun keiman lengpi ga chu ka sujot in atwi chu Pharaoh khona ka sun peh e.
and Pharaoh’s cup [is] in my hand, and I take the grapes and press them into the cup of Pharaoh, and I give the cup into the hand of Pharaoh.”
12 Joseph in hitin aseiye, “Lengpi bah thum hochu nithum tina ahi.
And Joseph says to him, “This [is] its interpretation: the three branches are three days;
13 Nithum sunga hi Pharaoh in nithum jou teng nadom sang intin, chule masanga nana toh na a nanung koi kit ding ahi.
yet, within three days Pharaoh lifts up your head, and has put you back on your station, and you have given the cup of Pharaoh into his hand, according to the former custom when you were his butler.
14 Chule nangma koma katao ahi, chanvou pha nahung chan teng neihin sumil hih beh in Pharaoh koma hitobang kathil bol hohi eina seipeh in, ajeh chu songkul'a kona eilha doh thei na ding in,” ati.
Surely if you have remembered me with you, when it is well with you, and have please done kindness with me, and have made mention of me to Pharaoh, then you have brought me out from this house,
15 Ajeh chu Hebrew gam a ka in apat a eikiman doh tua hiche songkul'a kaum hi mona neilou bolkhel ka neipoi.
for I was really stolen from the land of the Hebrews; and here also I have done nothing that they have put me in the pit [for].”
16 Hichun changlhah hom'a lamkai pachu Joseph in amang hoitah a ale chu amu le ama jong atha anom lheh in; Joseph jah ah hitin aseiye, “Keiman jong jan mang kaneiye, ka manga chun paipeh thum changlhah dimset kalu chunga kapoi.
And the chief of the bakers sees that he has interpreted good, and he says to Joseph, “I also [am] in a dream, and behold, three baskets of white bread [are] on my head,
17 Paipeh achuna pa sunga chun changlhah ajat lhingsel in aum in, Pharaoh a ding ahi, ahin vacha ho ahung leng un ka luchunga changlhah ho chu ane doh tauve.”
and in the highest basket [are] of all [kinds] of Pharaoh’s food, work of a baker; and the birds are eating them out of the basket, from off my head.”
18 Joseph in amang chu ale pehtan, “Paipeh thum chun nithum ma avetsah ahin,
And Joseph answers and says, “This [is] its interpretation: the three baskets are three days;
19 Nithum sunga hi Pharaoh in nalu adopsang ding thing phunga nakhai sang a, vachaten naphe anehchai ding'u ahi.”
yet, within three days Pharaoh lifts up your head from off you, and has hanged you on a tree, and the birds have eaten your flesh from off you.”
20 Pharaoh in nithum jou in ama penni kipapina in anoiya a semang pachonga pang jouse akou khom in hiche a pang dinga chu juvai hom lamkai pa le an vaihom lamkaipa chu alhadoh gel in,
And it comes to pass, on the third day, Pharaoh’s birthday, that he makes a banquet to all his servants, and lifts up the head of the chief of the butlers, and the head of the chief of the bakers among his servants,
21 Ju vaihom pachu aju vaihom na ma man apansah kit'in, aman jong jukhon chu Pharaoh khut a agapetai.
and he puts back the chief of the butlers to his butlership, and he gives the cup into the hand of Pharaoh;
22 Ahin an vaihom lamkaipa vang chu Joseph in amani henga mang alepeh bang chun akhai lih tan ahi.
and the chief of the bakers he has hanged, as Joseph has interpreted to them;
23 Hichun ju vaihom lamkaipan Joseph chu ageldoh tapon asumil deltai.
and the chief of the butlers has not remembered Joseph, but forgets him.
