1 Mosebog 40

1 Nogen Tid efter hændte det, at Ægypterkongens Mundskænk og Bager forbrød sig mod deres Herre Ægypterkongen,

And it was after the things these they sinned [the] cup bearer of [the] king of Egypt and the baker to master their to [the] king of Egypt.

2 og Farao vrededes paa sine to Hofmænd, Overmundskænken og Overbageren,

And he was angry Pharaoh towards two of officials his towards [the] chief of the cup bearers and towards [the] chief of the bakers.

3 og lod dem sætte i Forvaring i Livvagtens Øverstes Hus, i samme Fængsel, hvor Josef sad fængslet;

And he put them in [the] custody of [the] house of [the] commander of the bodyguards into [the] house of the prison [the] place where Joseph [was] imprisoned there.

4 og Livvagtens Øverste gav dem Josef til Opvartning, og han gik dem til Haande. Da de nu havde været i Forvaring en Tid lang,

And he appointed [the] commander of the bodyguards Joseph with them and he served them and they were days in custody.

5 drømte Ægypterkongens Mundskænk og Bager, som sad i Fængselet, samme Nat hver sin Drøm med sin særlige Betydning.

And they dreamed a dream both of them each own dream his in a night one each according to [the] interpretation of dream his the cup bearer and the baker who [belonged] to [the] king of Egypt who [were] imprisoned in [the] house of the prison.

6 Da Josef om Morgenen kom ind til Faraos Hofmænd, der sammen med ham var i Forvaring i hans Herres Hus, og saa, at de var nedslaaede,

And he came to them Joseph in the morning and he saw them and [were] they looking dejected.

7 spurgte han dem: »Hvorfor ser I saa ulykkelige ud i Dag?«

And he asked [the] officials of Pharaoh who [were] with him in [the] custody of [the] house of master his saying why? [are] faces your sad this day.

8 Besvarede: »Vi har haft en Drøm, og her er ingen, som kan tyde den.« Da sagde Josef til dem: »Er det ikke Guds Sag at tyde Drømme? Fortæl mig det da!«

And they said to him a dream we dreamed and [is one who] interprets there not it and he said to them Joseph ¿ not [belong] to God [do] interpretations recount [it] please to me.

9 Saa fortalte Overmundskænken Josef sin Drøm og sagde: »Jeg saa i Drømme en Vinstok for mig;

And he recounted [the] chief of the cup bearers dream his to Joseph and he said to him in dream my and there! a vine [was] before me.

10 paa Vinstokken var der tre Ranker, og næppe havde den sat Skud, før Blomsterne sprang ud, og Klaserne bar modne Druer;

And [were] on the vine three branches and it when [it was] budding it went up blossom its they ripened clusters its grapes.

11 og jeg havde Faraos Bæger i Haanden og tog Druerne og pressede dem i Faraos Bæger og rakte Farao det.«

And [the] cup of Pharaoh [was] in hand my and I took the grapes and I squeezed them into [the] cup of Pharaoh and I put the cup on [the] palm of Pharaoh.

12 Da sagde Josef: »Det skal udtydes saaledes: De tre Ranker betyder tre Dage;

And he said to him Joseph this [is] interpretation its [the] three the branches [are] three days they.

13 om tre Dage skal Farao løfte dit Hoved og genindsætte dig i dit Embede, saa du atter rækker Farao Bægeret som før, da du var hans Mundskænk.

In again - three days he will lift up Pharaoh head your and he will restore you to office your and you will put [the] cup of Pharaoh in hand his according to the custom former when you were cup bearer his.

14 Vilde du nu blot tænke paa mig, naar det gaar dig vel, og vise mig Godhed og omtale mig for Farao og saaledes hjælpe mig ud af dette Hus;

That except you have remembered me with you when it will go well for you and you will do please with me loyalty and you will bring to remembrance me to Pharaoh and you will bring out me from the house this.

15 thi jeg er stjaalet fra Hebræernes Land og har heller ikke her gjort noget, de kunde sætte mig i Fængsel for.«

For certainly I was stolen from [the] land of the Hebrews and also here not I have done anything that they have put me in the pit.

16 Da nu Overbageren saa, at Josef gav Mundskænken en gunstig Tydning, sagde han til ham: »Jeg havde en lignende Drøm: Se, jeg bar tre Kurve Hvedebrød paa mit Hoved.

And he saw [the] chief of the bakers that good he had interpreted and he said to Joseph also I in dream my and there! three baskets of white bread [were] on head my.

17 I den øverste Kurv var der alle Haande Bagværk til Faraos Bord, men Fuglene aad det af Kurven paa mit Hoved!«

And [was] in the basket upper some of all [the] food of Pharaoh [the] work of a baker and the bird[s] [was] eating them from the basket from on head my.

18 Da sagde Josef: »Det skal udtydes saaledes: De tre Kurve betyder tre Dage;

And he answered Joseph and he said this [is] interpretation its [the] three the baskets [are] three days they.

19 om tre Dage skal Farao løfte dit Hoved og hænge dig op paa en Pæl, og Fuglene skal æde Kødet af din Krop!«

In again - three days he will lift up Pharaoh head your from on you and he will hang you on a tree and it will eat the bird[s] flesh your from on you.

20 Tre Dage efter, da det var Faraos Fødselsdag, gjorde han et Gæstebud for alle sine Tjenere, og da løftede han Overmundskænkens og Overbagerens, Hoveder iblandt sine Tjenere.

And it was - on the day third ([the] day of *LAH(b)*) being born Pharaoh and he made a feast for all servants his and he lifted up [the] head of - [the] chief of the cup bearers and [the] head of [the] chief of the bakers in among servants his.

21 Overmundskænken genindsatte han i hans Embede, saa han atter rakte Farao Bægeret,

And he restored [the] chief of the cup bearers to cup bearing his and he put the cup on [the] palm of Pharaoh.

22 og Overbageren lod han hænge, som Josef havde tydet det for dem.

And [the] chief of the bakers he hanged just as he had interpreted for them Joseph.

23 Men Overmundskænken tænkte ikke paa Josef; han glemte ham.

And not he remembered [the] chief of the cup bearers Joseph and he forgot him.
