< Genesis 41 >

1 At the end of two full years, Pharaoh dreamed, and behold, he stood by the river.
Ie peake ty taoñe roe, le nañi­nofy t’i Parò, inao! ie nijohañe marine i saka Nailey,
2 Behold, seven cattle came up out of the river. They were sleek and fat, and they fed in the marsh grass.
le inge nitroatse amy Nailey ty añombe rene’e fito mendo naho niogoògo vaho nihinañe amo vondroñeo.
3 Behold, seven other cattle came up after them out of the river, ugly and thin, and stood by the other cattle on the brink of the river.
Ni­troatse nanonjohy irezay ty tamanañe fito niriverive naho boroka nijagaro­doñe marine i fito ila’e añ’olo’ i Nailey rey.
4 The ugly and thin cattle ate up the seven sleek and fat cattle. So Pharaoh awoke.
Nabotse’ i añombe rene’e fito molonko naho boroka rey i añombe rene’e fito mendo naho vondrake rey, le nivañoñe t’i Parò.
5 He slept and dreamed a second time; and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, healthy and good.
Nirotse indraike re nañinofy fañindroe’e: Hehe te sambe aman-taho’e raike ty voto tsako fito vañoñe toe daoza’e.
6 Behold, seven heads of grain, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
Inge ka ty voto-tsako lolondo’e fito, manifitse, finorototo’ ty tiok’ atiñana nitiry afara.
7 The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy and full ears. Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.
Nagodra’ i voto manifitse rey i voto fito daoza’e vokatse rey. Nivañoñe amy zao t’i Parò le nizoe’e te nofy.
8 In the morning, his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all of Egypt’s magicians and wise men. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh.
Ie nimaraiñe le niembetse ty arofo’e; aa le nirahe’e ty hikoike ze fonga tsimaito’ i Mitsraime naho ze hene mahihitse ama’e ao. Natalili’ i Parò ama’e o nofi’eo fe leo raike tsy nahavaky irezay amy Parò.
9 Then the chief cup bearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, “I remember my faults today.
Aa le hoe ty asa’ i beim-panjotso fitoviy amy Parò, Nampitiahie’ ty andro toy ahiko o tahikoo.
10 Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, with the chief baker.
Teo te niviñera’ i Parò o mpitoro’eo vaho sindre najo’e am-balabey añ’anjomba’ i beim-pigaritsey, izaho naho i beim-panoñakey.
11 We dreamed a dream in one night, he and I. Each man dreamed according to the interpretation of his dream.
Songa nañinofy amy haleñey, ie naho izaho, sindre aman-dika’e i ninofise’ey.
12 There was with us there a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard, and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams. He interpreted to each man according to his dream.
Nitrao­k’ ama’ay ty ajalahy nte-Evre, mpitoro’ i beim-pigaritsey. Natalili’ay ama’e, le nadika’e ama’ay o nofi’aio, sambe nadika’e ama’e i ninofise’ey.
13 As he interpreted to us, so it was. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him.”
Ie amy zay, i nandika’e ama’aiy ty nefetsake: nahereñe amy tolon-drahakoy iraho vaho nanoan-tsingere mañaty i mpanoñakey.
14 Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. He shaved himself, changed his clothing, and came in to Pharaoh.
Aa le nampañitrife’ i Parò t’Iosefe, le navota’ iareo masìka am-balabey ao; nihitsike re naho nañova saroñe vaho niheo mb’amy Parò mb’eo.
15 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have dreamed a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. I have heard it said of you, that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”
Aa hoe t’i Parò am’ Iosefe, Nañinofy iraho, vaho tsy eo ty mahafandika aze. Fe tsinanoko ty ama’o te ihe ty mahavaky nofy naho maha-dika aze.
16 Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, “It is not in me. God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.”
Tinoi’ Iosefe t’i Parò ami’ty hoe, Tsy amako fa i Andrianañahare ty hanoiñe i Parò an-kanintsiñe.
17 Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, “In my dream, behold, I stood on the brink of the river;
Aa hoe t’i Parò am’ Iosefe, Ie nijohañe añ’ olo’ i Nailey amy nofikoy le
18 and behold, seven fat and sleek cattle came up out of the river. They fed in the marsh grass;
naheoko te niakatse i Nailey ty añombe rene’e fito mendo naho vondrake nihinañe amo vondroñeo.
19 and behold, seven other cattle came up after them, poor and very ugly and thin, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for ugliness.
Inge amy zao te nitroatse boak’ ao nanonjohy iareo ty añombe fito raty, loho molonko, naho boròka. Mbe liako tsy nahatrea i haraty zay an-tane Mitsraime atoy.
20 The thin and ugly cattle ate up the first seven fat cattle;
Nagodra’ i añombe rene’e molonko naho boroka rey i añombe rene’e vondrake rey,
21 and when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them, but they were still ugly, as at the beginning. So I awoke.
fe ndra t’ie nampibotseke tsy ho naharendre’ ondaty te nahabeake kanao mbe nihambañe amy teoy ty harati’ iereo. Le nitsekake iraho.
22 I saw in my dream, and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, full and good;
Ie amy nofikoy le mbore nahatrea voto tsako fito vañoñe naho soa, sambe niboak’ ami’ty taho’e raike.
23 and behold, seven heads of grain, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
Indrok’ amy zao te niboake manonjohy iereo ty voto-tsako fito jiba, kifo’e, finorototo’ ty tiok’ atiñanañe,
24 The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads of grain. I told it to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me.”
le nabotse’ i voto beikolopoke rey i voto fito soa rey. Aa ie nataliliko amo ambiasao, leo raike tsy nahabejañ’aze amako.
25 Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God is about to do he has declared to Pharaoh.
Aa hoe t’Iosefe amy Parò, Raike ty nofi’ i Parò; fa nabentan’ ­Añahare amy Parò ty hanoe’e aniany.
26 The seven good cattle are seven years; and the seven good heads of grain are seven years. The dream is one.
I añombe fito soa rey ro fito taoñe; vaho fito taoñe ka i voto tsako fito soa rey; hambañe i nofy rey.
27 The seven thin and ugly cattle that came up after them are seven years, and also the seven empty heads of grain blasted with the east wind; they will be seven years of famine.
I añombe fito boroka naho molònko rey ro fito taoñe, manahake izay i kifo’e fito jinoi’ i tiok’ atiñanañey rey. San-tsalikoañe fito taoñe izay.
28 That is the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh. God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do.
Ie i vinolako amy Paròy, te nabentan’ Aña­hare amy Parò i hanoe’ey.
29 Behold, seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt are coming.
Inao! handrambañe an-tane Mitsraime atoy fito taoñe ty san-kavokaram-bey.
30 Seven years of famine will arise after them, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land,
Hanonjohy izay te hitroatse ty san-kasalikoañe fito taoñe; le fonga ho haliño an-tane Mitsraime atoy i havokarañey; vaho habotse’ ty san-kerè i taney.
31 and the plenty will not be known in the land by reason of that famine which follows; for it will be very grievous.
Tsy ho tiahy an-tane atoy ka i havokarañey amy hasalikoañe hanonjohy azey ami’ty hamafe’ i haoreañey.
32 The dream was doubled to Pharaoh, because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
Aa kanao nifañin-droe’e i nofi’ i Paròy le fa natsaton’ Añahare i rahay vaho antitotse ty andro hametsahan’Añahare aze.
33 “Now therefore let Pharaoh look for a discreet and wise man, and set him over the land of Egypt.
Aa soa re te ho joboñe’ i Parò t’indaty mahatsikarake naho mahihitse hampifehea’e ty tane Mitsraime,
34 Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint overseers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt’s produce in the seven plenteous years.
vaho hamototse higene mpisary amy taney t’i Parò handrambe ty faha-lime’ i taney amy fito taoñe vokatse rey.
35 Let them gather all the food of these good years that come, and store grain under the hand of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it.
Le hatonto’ iareo ze hene mahakama amy taon-joba hitotsake rey, naho hahaja ambanem-pità’ i Parò i tsakoy hañajàñe mahakama amo rovao.
36 The food will be to supply the land against the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt; so that the land will not perish through the famine.”
Ahaja ho a i taney i mahakamay, ho amy taon-kerè fito hifetsak’ an-tane Mitsraime atoy rey tsy haitoa’ ty san-kasalikoañe ty tane toy.
37 The thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
Ni-no’ i Parò naho ze hene mpi­toro’e i saontsy zay.
38 Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?”
Le hoe t’i Parò amo mpitoro’eo, Hahaoniñe ondaty mañirin­kiriñe itoy hao tika—ie aman’ Arofon’ Añahare?
39 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Because God has shown you all of this, there is no one so discreet and wise as you.
Aa hoe t’i Parò am’Iosefe, Kanao nabentan’ Añahare ama’o i he’e zay, tsy eo ty mahatsikarake naho mahihitse te ama’o.
40 You shall be over my house. All my people will be ruled according to your word. Only in the throne I will be greater than you.”
Feheo ty trañoko, ihe ‘nio, vaho ty falie’o ro hampitsaoke ondatiko iabio; i fiambesam-panjakañey avao ty mahabey ahy te ama’o.
41 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Behold, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.”
Le hoe t’i Parò am’Iosefe, Hehe, fonga nampifeheko azo ty tane Mitsraime;
42 Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand, and put it on Joseph’s hand, and arrayed him in robes of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck.
le nafaha’ i Parò am-pità’e i bange-fitombo’ey naho naombe’e am-pità’ Iosefe naho sinaro’e siki-leny naho niravahe’e tohi-rozañe volamena ty fititia’e
43 He made him ride in the second chariot which he had. They cried before him, “Bow the knee!” He set him over all the land of Egypt.
vaho nampijoñe’e amy sareten-tsorotà’ey le nikoikoiheñe aolo’e mb’eo ty hoe: Mitongalefa! Le nampandilie’e iaby i tane Mitsraimey.
44 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh. Without you, no man shall lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.”
Nanao ty hoe am’ Iosefe t’i Parò, Izaho o Parò zao, fe naho tsy ihe, le tsy eo ty hañonjo fitàñe ndra fandia an-tane Mitsraime atoy iaby.
45 Pharaoh called Joseph’s name Zaphenath-Paneah. He gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On as a wife. Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.
Nomei’ i Parò ty tahina Tsofnate-paneàke t’Iosefe le natolots’ aze ho vali’e t’i Asenate, ana’ i Potifera, mpisoro’ i One; vaho nionjom-beo nanitsike i tane Mitsraimey t’Iosefe.
46 Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.
Ni-telopolo taoñe t’Iosefe te nijo­hañe aolo’ i Parò mpanjaka’ i Mits­ra­ime. Niavotse añ’atrefa’ i Parò t’Iosefe vaho nitsitsihe’e ty tane Mitsraime.
47 In the seven plenteous years the earth produced abundantly.
Namokatse am-botri’e i taney amy taoñe fito vañoñe rey.
48 He gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities. He stored food in each city from the fields around that city.
Aa le hene natonto’e ze mahakama an-tane Mitsraime ao amy fito taoñe rey vaho nahaja’e amo rovao o mahakamao; songa rova ro nañajañe ty mahakama boak’ amo teteke mañohok’ azeo.
49 Joseph laid up grain as the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting, for it was without number.
Nañaja tsako mira amo fasen-driakeo t’Iosefe, tsifotofoto kanao tsy nahafañiak’ aze, amy te loho bey tsy nilefe volily.
50 To Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bore to him.
Nahatoly ana-dahy roe t’Iosefe aolo’ o taom-polakeo, toe nisamaha’ i Asenate, ana’ i Potifera mpisoro’ i One.
51 Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh, “For”, he said, “God has made me forget all my toil, and all my father’s house.”
Natao’ Iosefe Menasè ty añara’ i tañoloñoloña’ey, fa hoe re, Nampandikofen’ Añahare ahy i hene fisotriakoy naho ty anjomban-draeko iaby.
52 The name of the second, he called Ephraim: “For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
Natao’e Efraime ty faharoe, amy te: Nampiraorao ahy an-tane nampiore ahy ao t’i Andrianañahare.
53 The seven years of plenty, that were in the land of Egypt, came to an end.
Nimodo amy zao i taoñe fito vokatse an-tane Mitsraimey rey;
54 The seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
le niorotse nitsatoke i fito taon-tsan-kerè rey ty amy saontsi’ Iosefey. Hene nikerè ze tane añe fe hene ama’ mahakama o an-tane Mitsraimeo.
55 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 says to you, do.”
Ie fonga nisalikoeñe ty antane Mitsraime, le nitoreo maha­kama amy Parò ondatio. Aa hoe t’i Parò amo nte-Mitsraime iabio, Akia mb’am’ Iosefe mb’eo le ze taroñe’e ama’ areo ty hanoe’ areo.
56 The famine was over all the surface of the earth. Joseph opened all the store houses, and sold to the Egyptians. The famine was severe in the land of Egypt.
Aa naho nandrambañe ty tane toy i san-kerèy, le sinoka’ Iosefe o riha iabio vaho naleta’e amo nte-Mitsraimeo, amy te nimafe ty kerè an-tane Mitsraime ao.
57 All countries came into Egypt, to Joseph, to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all the earth.
Niheo am’Iosefe e Mitsraime ao iaby ty tane toy hivily tsako, amy te nanitsike ty tane bey toy ty hamafe’ i hasalikoañey.
