Chakruok 40
1 Bangʼ ndalo moko jagam divai kod jated makati mar Farao ruodh Misri nochwanyo ruoth.
Some time later, the king’s cupbearer and baker offended their master, the king of Egypt.
2 Mirima nomako Farao gi jotichge ariyogo, ma gin jotend jagam divai kod jatend joma tedo makati.
Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker,
3 Kendo noketogi e od twech kama jatend askeche mar od twech notweyoe Josef.
and imprisoned them in the house of the captain of the guard, the same prison where Joseph was confined.
4 Jatend askeche noketogi e lwet Josef mondo oritgi. Bangʼ kane gisebedo e od twech kuom kinde moko,
The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he became their personal attendant. After they had been in custody for some time,
5 moro ka moro kuom ji ariyogi mane gin jatend jogam divai kod jatend joted makati mar ruodh Misri mane oyudo otwe, noleko lek otienono moro ka moro, kendo lek ka lek ne nigi tiende mopogore gi machielo.
both of these men—the Egyptian king’s cupbearer and baker, who were being held in the prison—had a dream on the same night, and each dream had its own meaning.
6 Kane Josef obiro irgi kinyne gokinyi, noneno ka chunygi ool.
When Joseph came to them in the morning, he saw that they were distraught.
7 Kuom mano nopenjo jatich Farao mane ni kode e od twechgo niya, “Angʼo ma omiyo uol kawuono?”
So he asked the officials of Pharaoh who were in custody with him in his master’s house, “Why are your faces so downcast today?”
8 Negidwoke niya, “Waduto nyoro waleko lek mopogore opogore, to onge ngʼama nyalo lokonwa tiendgi.” Eka Josef nowachonegi niya, “Donge fwenyo tiend lek aa mane kuom Nyasaye? Emomiyo yieuru unyisa lekugo.”
“We both had dreams,” they replied, “but there is no one to interpret them.” Then Joseph said to them, “Don’t interpretations belong to God? Tell me your dreams.”
9 Kuom mano jatend jogam Divai nonyiso Josef lek mane oleko. Nowachone niya, “E lekna nende aleko ni aneno yadh mzabibu e nyima,
So the chief cupbearer told Joseph his dream: “In my dream there was a vine before me,
10 kendo e yadh mzabibuno ne nitie bede adek. Kane ochako loth, nogolo thiepene kendo neginyago mzabibu mochiek mana gikanyono.
and on the vine were three branches. As it budded, its blossoms opened and its clusters ripened into grapes.
11 Kikombe Farao ne ni e lweta, kendo nakawo olembe mag mzabibu mi abiyogi e kikombe mar Farao kendo aketo kikombe e lwete.”
Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes, squeezed them into his cup, and placed the cup in his hand.”
12 Josef nowachone niya, “Ma e tiend lek mane ilekono. Bede yadh mzabibu adekgo nyiso ndalo adek.
Joseph replied, “This is the interpretation: The three branches are three days.
13 Bangʼ ndalo adek Farao biro gonyi kendo dwoki e tiji, kendo ibiro keto kikombe Farao e lwete mana kaka yande kitimo kane in jatingʼ divai mare.
Within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore your position. You will put Pharaoh’s cup in his hand, just as you did when you were his cupbearer.
14 To ka gik moko duto otimoreni maber, ipara kendo itimna ngʼwono; iwuona gi Farao mondo ogola e od twech.
But when it goes well for you, please remember me and show me kindness by mentioning me to Pharaoh, that he might bring me out of this prison.
15 Nikech nomaka githuon ka igola e piny jo-Hibrania, kendo kata mana kaonge gima rach ma asetimo manyalo miyo abedie od twech ka.”
For I was kidnapped from the land of the Hebrews, and even here I have done nothing for which they should have put me in this dungeon.”
16 Kane jatend joted makati oneno ni Josef oloko tiend lek maber, nowachone Josef niya, “An bende ne aleko kama: Atonge adek mag makati ne ni e wiya.
When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was favorable, he said to Joseph, “I too had a dream: There were three baskets of white bread on my head.
17 Ei atonga mamalo ne nitie chiemo duto motedi ni Farao, to winy ne chamogi ei atonga mamalono.”
In the top basket were all sorts of baked goods for Pharaoh, but the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head.”
18 Josef nowachone niya, “Ma e tiend leknino. Atonge adek nyiso ndalo adek.
Joseph replied, “This is the interpretation: The three baskets are three days.
19 Kapok okadho ndalo adek Farao biro golie od twech, kendo obiro ngʼado wiyi oko manolieri e yath kendo winy biro chamo ringri.”
Within three days Pharaoh will lift off your head and hang you on a tree. Then the birds will eat the flesh of your body.”
20 Koro odiechiengʼ mar adek ne en odiechieng rapar mar nywol Farao, kendo noloso nyasi ne jotije duto. Nogonyo jatend jogam divai kod jatend joted makati moketogi e nyim jodonge.
On the third day, which was Pharaoh’s birthday, he held a feast for all his officials, and in their presence he lifted up the heads of the chief cupbearer and the chief baker.
21 Nodwoko jatend jogam divai e tije, mondo omi ochak oket kikombe e lwet Farao,
Pharaoh restored the chief cupbearer to his position, so that he once again placed the cup in Pharaoh’s hand.
22 to jatend joted makati nonego, mana kaka Josef noselokonegi tiend lekgi.
But Pharaoh hanged the chief baker, just as Joseph had described to them in his interpretation.
23 To kata kamano jatend jogam divai ne ok oparo Josef; wiye nowil kode.
The chief cupbearer, however, did not remember Joseph; he forgot all about him.
