< Genesis 40 >

1 Some time later, the king’s cupbearer and baker offended their master, the king of Egypt.
Bangʼ ndalo moko jagam divai kod jated makati mar Farao ruodh Misri nochwanyo ruoth.
2 Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker,
Mirima nomako Farao gi jotichge ariyogo, ma gin jotend jagam divai kod jatend joma tedo makati.
3 and imprisoned them in the house of the captain of the guard, the same prison where Joseph was confined.
Kendo noketogi e od twech kama jatend askeche mar od twech notweyoe Josef.
4 The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he became their personal attendant. After they had been in custody for some time,
Jatend askeche noketogi e lwet Josef mondo oritgi. Bangʼ kane gisebedo e od twech kuom kinde moko,
5 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.
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.
6 When Joseph came to them in the morning, he saw that they were distraught.
Kane Josef obiro irgi kinyne gokinyi, noneno ka chunygi ool.
7 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?”
Kuom mano nopenjo jatich Farao mane ni kode e od twechgo niya, “Angʼo ma omiyo uol kawuono?”
8 “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.”
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.”
9 So the chief cupbearer told Joseph his dream: “In my dream there was a vine before me,
Kuom mano jatend jogam Divai nonyiso Josef lek mane oleko. Nowachone niya, “E lekna nende aleko ni aneno yadh mzabibu e nyima,
10 and on the vine were three branches. As it budded, its blossoms opened and its clusters ripened into grapes.
kendo e yadh mzabibuno ne nitie bede adek. Kane ochako loth, nogolo thiepene kendo neginyago mzabibu mochiek mana gikanyono.
11 Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes, squeezed them into his cup, and placed the cup in his hand.”
Kikombe Farao ne ni e lweta, kendo nakawo olembe mag mzabibu mi abiyogi e kikombe mar Farao kendo aketo kikombe e lwete.”
12 Joseph replied, “This is the interpretation: The three branches are three days.
Josef nowachone niya, “Ma e tiend lek mane ilekono. Bede yadh mzabibu adekgo nyiso ndalo adek.
13 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.
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.
14 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.
To ka gik moko duto otimoreni maber, ipara kendo itimna ngʼwono; iwuona gi Farao mondo ogola e od twech.
15 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.”
Nikech nomaka githuon ka igola e piny jo-Hibrania, kendo kata mana kaonge gima rach ma asetimo manyalo miyo abedie od twech ka.”
16 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.
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.
17 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.”
Ei atonga mamalo ne nitie chiemo duto motedi ni Farao, to winy ne chamogi ei atonga mamalono.”
18 Joseph replied, “This is the interpretation: The three baskets are three days.
Josef nowachone niya, “Ma e tiend leknino. Atonge adek nyiso ndalo adek.
19 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.”
Kapok okadho ndalo adek Farao biro golie od twech, kendo obiro ngʼado wiyi oko manolieri e yath kendo winy biro chamo ringri.”
20 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.
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.
21 Pharaoh restored the chief cupbearer to his position, so that he once again placed the cup in Pharaoh’s hand.
Nodwoko jatend jogam divai e tije, mondo omi ochak oket kikombe e lwet Farao,
22 But Pharaoh hanged the chief baker, just as Joseph had described to them in his interpretation.
to jatend joted makati nonego, mana kaka Josef noselokonegi tiend lekgi.
23 The chief cupbearer, however, did not remember Joseph; he forgot all about him.
To kata kamano jatend jogam divai ne ok oparo Josef; wiye nowil kode.
