Genesis 41
1 Now after two years had gone by, Pharaoh had a dream; and in his dream he was by the side of the Nile;
दुई वर्षको अन्त्यमा फारोले एउटा सपना देखे । तिनी नील नदीको किनारमा उभिए ।
2 And out of the Nile came seven cows, good-looking and fat, and their food was the river-grass.
नील नदीबाट सातवटा सप्रेका र मोटा-मोटा गाई निस्केर आए, अनि तिनीहरू नर्कटको झाडीमा चरे ।
3 And after them seven other cows came out of the Nile, poor-looking and thin; and they were by the side of the other cows.
नील नदीबाट अरू सातवटा नसप्रेका र दुब्ला-दुब्ला गाई निस्केर आए । तिनीहरू नदीको किनारमा उभिरहेका पहिलेका गाईहरूसँगै उभिए ।
4 And the seven thin cows made a meal of the seven fat cows. Then Pharaoh came out of his sleep.
त्यसपछि नसप्रेका र दुब्ला-दुब्ला गाईहरूले सातवटा सप्रेका र मोटा-मोटा गाईलाई खाइदिए । अनि फारो ब्युँझे ।
5 But he went to sleep again and had a second dream, in which he saw seven heads of grain, full and good, all on one stem.
तिनी फेरि सुते र अर्को सपना देखे । सातवटा भरिला र असल अनाजका बाला एउटै डाँठमा उम्रे ।
6 And after them came up seven other heads, thin and wasted by the east wind.
त्यसपछि सेप्रा र पूर्वीय बतासद्वारा ओइलाइएका अरू सातवटा अन्नका बाला तिनीहरू पछि पलाए ।
7 And the seven thin heads made a meal of the good heads. And when Pharaoh was awake he saw it was a dream.
सेप्रा बालाहरूले ती सातवटा भरिला र असल बालालाई खाइदिए । फारो ब्युँझे, र यो त सपना पो रहेछ भनी तिनलाई थाहा भयो ।
8 And in the morning his spirit was troubled; and he sent for all the wise men of Egypt and all the holy men, and put his dream before them, but no one was able to give him the sense of it.
बिहान तिनको आत्मा बेचैन भयो । तिनले मिश्रका सबै जादुगर र बुद्धिमान् मानिसहरूलाई बोलाउन पठाए । फारोले तिनीहरूलाई आफ्ना सपनाहरू बताए, तर फारोलाई सपनाहरूको अर्थ खोल्न सक्ने त्यहाँ कोही भएन ।
9 Then the chief wine-servant said to Pharaoh, The memory of my sin comes back to me now;
त्यसपछि मुख्य पियाउनेले फारोलाई भने, “आज म मेरो दोषको बारेमा सोच्दै छु ।
10 Pharaoh had been angry with his servants, and had put me in prison in the house of the captain of the army, together with the chief bread-maker;
फारो आफ्ना नोकरहरूसित रिसाउनु भई मलाई र मुख्य पकाउनेलाई अङ्गरक्षकका कप्तानको कैदखानामा राख्नुभयो ।
11 And we had a dream on the same night, the two of us, and the dreams had a special sense.
तिनी र मैले एउटै रात सपना देख्यौँ । हामीले आ-आफ्नो अर्थ भएका सपना देख्यौँ ।
12 And there was with us a young Hebrew, the captain's servant, and when we put our dreams before him, he gave us the sense of them.
त्यहाँ हामीसित एक जना जवान हिब्रू मानिस थियो जो अङ्गरक्षकका कप्तानको नोकर थियो । हामीले त्यसलाई हाम्रा सपनाहरू बताएपछि त्यसले अर्थ खोलिदियो । त्यसले हामीलाई आ-आफ्ना सपनाअनुसार अर्थ खोलिदियो ।
13 And it came about as he said: I was put back in my place, and the bread-maker was put to death by hanging.
त्यसले हामीलाई अर्थ खोलिदिएअनुसार नै हुन आयो । फारोले मलाई मेरो पदमा पुनर्स्थापना गरिदिनुभयो, तर अर्को मानिसलाई झुण्ड्याइयो ।”
14 Then Pharaoh sent for Joseph, and they took him quickly out of prison; and when his hair had been cut and his dress changed, he came before Pharaoh.
त्यसपछि फारोले योसेफलाई डाक्न पठाए । तिनीहरूले तिनलाई चाँडै नै झ्यालखानाबाट निकालेर ल्याए । तिनले दारी खौरेपछि लुगाहरू बद्लेर फारोकहाँ आए ।
15 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have had a dream, and no one is able to give me the sense of it; now it has come to my ears that you are able to give the sense of a dream when it is put before you.
फारोले योसेफलाई भने, “मैले एउटा सपना देखेँ, तर यसको अर्थ खोल्ने कोही भएन । तर तिमीले सपना सुन्यौ भने यसको अर्थ खोल्न सक्छौ भनी मैले तिम्रो बारेमा सुनेको छु ।”
16 Then Joseph said, Without God there will be no answer of peace for Pharaoh.
योसेफले फारोलाई जवाफ दिए, “ममा यस्तो खुबी त छैन, तर परमेश्वरले फारोलाई निगाहसाथ जवाफ दिनुहुनेछ ।”
17 Then Pharaoh said, In my dream I was by the side of the Nile:
फारोले योसेफलाई बताए, “मेरो सपनामा म नील नदीको किनारमा उभिएँ ।
18 And out of the Nile came seven cows, fat and good-looking, and their food was the river-grass;
नील नदीबाट सातवटा सप्रेका र मोटा-मोटा गाई निस्केर आए, अनि तिनीहरू नर्कटको झाडीमा चरे ।
19 Then after them came seven other cows, very thin and poor-looking, worse than any I ever saw in the land of Egypt;
नील नदीबाट अरू सातवटा कमजोर, नसप्रेका र दुब्ला-दुब्ला गाई निस्केर आए । मैले पुरै मिश्रभरि तीजस्ता नसप्रेका गाईहरू कहिल्यै देखेको छैनँ ।
20 And the thin cows made a meal of the seven fat cows who came up first;
त्यसपछि नसप्रेका र दुब्ला-दुब्ला गाईहरूले सातवटा मोटा-मोटा गाईलाई खाइदिए ।
21 And even with the fat cows inside them they seemed as bad as before. And so I came out of my sleep.
तिनीहरूले ती गाईहरूलाई खाइसकेपछि तिनीहरू खाएका जस्ता देखिँदैनथे किनकि तिनीहरू पहिलेजस्तै अझै पनि नसप्रेका देखिन्थे । त्यसपछि मेरो निद्रा खुल्यो ।
22 And again in a dream I saw seven heads of grain, full and good, coming up on one stem:
मेरो अर्को सपनामा मैले सातवटा भरिला र असल अनाजका बाला एउटै डाँठमा उम्रिरहेका देखेँ ।
23 And then I saw seven other heads, dry, thin, and wasted by the east wind, coming up after them:
त्यसपछि सुकेका, सेप्रा र पूर्वीय बतासद्वारा ओइलाइएका अरू सातवटा अन्नका बाला तिनीहरू पछि पलाउन थाले ।
24 And the seven thin heads made a meal of the seven good heads; and I put this dream before the wise men, but not one of them was able to give me the sense of it.
सेप्रा बालाहरूले ती सातवटा भरिला र असल बालालाई खाइदिए । मैले जादुगरहरूलाई यी सपनाहरू बताएँ, तर मलाई तिनको अर्थ खोलिदिने कोही भएन ।”
25 Then Joseph said, These two dreams have the same sense: God has made clear to Pharaoh what he is about to do.
योसेफले फारोलाई भने, “फारोका सपनाहरू एउटै हुन् । परमेश्वरले गर्न लाग्नुभएको कुरा उहाँले फारोलाई प्रकट गराउनुभएको छ ।
26 The seven fat cows are seven years, and the seven good heads of grain are seven years: the two have the same sense.
सातवटा असल गाई र सातवटा असल बाला सात वर्ष हुन् । सपनाहरू एउटै हुन् ।
27 The seven thin and poor-looking cows who came up after them are seven years; and the seven heads of grain, dry and wasted by the east wind, are seven years when there will be no food.
तीपछि आएका सातवटा दुब्ला-दुब्ला र नसप्रेका गाई सात वर्ष हुन्, र पूर्वीय बतासद्वारा ओइल्याइएका सातवटा बाला अनिकालका सात वर्ष हुन् ।
28 As I said to Pharaoh before, God has made clear to him what he is about to do.
मैले फारोलाई बताएको कुरा यही नै हो । परमेश्वरले गर्न लाग्नुभएको कुरा उहाँले फारोलाई प्रकट गराउनुभएको छ ।
29 Seven years are coming in which there will be great wealth of grain in Egypt;
हेर्नुहोस्, मिश्रदेशभरि ठुलो सहकालको सात वर्ष हुनेछ ।
30 And after that will come seven years when there will not be enough food; and the memory of the good years will go from men's minds; and the land will be made waste by the bad years;
त्यसपछि सात वर्षको अनिकाल पर्नेछ, र मिश्रभरि त्यस सात वर्षको सहकालको सम्झना हुनेछैन, अनि अनिकाले देशलाई सखाप पार्नेछ ।
31 And men will have no memory of the good time because of the need which will come after, for it will be very bitter.
देशमा पछि आउने अनिकालको कारणले गर्दा सहकाललाई सम्झनेछैन किनकि यो अति नै भयानक हुनेछ ।
32 And this dream came to Pharaoh twice, because this thing is certain, and God will quickly make it come about.
फारोलाई सपना दोहोर्याइनुको कारणचाहिँ यही हो, कि परमेश्वरले यो विषयलाई पक्का गर्नुभएको छ, र उहाँले चाँडै यसो गर्नुहुनेछ ।
33 And now let Pharaoh make search for a man of wisdom and good sense, and put him in authority over the land of Egypt.
अब फारोले कुशल र बुद्धिमान् मानिसको खोजी गरी तिनलाई मिश्र देशको जिम्मेवारी दिनुहोस् ।
34 Let Pharaoh do this, and let him put overseers over the land of Egypt to put in store a fifth part of the produce of the land in the good years.
फारोले देशमाथि अधिकारीहरू नियुक्त गर्नुभएको होस् र तिनीहरूले सहकालका सात वर्षमा मिश्रका अनाजहरूको पाँचौँ हिस्सा उठाऊन् ।
35 And let them get together all the food in those good years and make a store of grain under Pharaoh's control for the use of the towns, and let them keep it.
सहरहरूमा खानाका लागि तिनीहरूले आउँदै गरेका यी असल वर्षहरूका सबै अनाज जम्मा गरून् । तिनीहरूले यसको सञ्चय गर्नुपर्छ ।
36 And let that food be kept in store for the land till the seven bad years which are to come in Egypt; so that the land may not come to destruction through need of food.
मिश्रमा आउने सात वर्षको अनिकालको अवधिमा यी अनाज वितरण गरिनुपर्छ । यसरी अनिकालद्वारा देश सखाप हुनेछैन ।”
37 And this seemed good to Pharaoh and to all his servants.
फारो र तिनका सबै कामदारको दृष्टिमा यो सल्लाह राम्रो थियो ।
38 Then Pharaoh said to his servants, Where may we get such a man as this, a man in whom is the spirit of God?
फारोले आफ्ना कामदारहरूलाई भने, “यिनीजस्तै परमेश्वरको आत्मा भएको अर्को कुनचाहिँ मानिस हामी पाउन सक्छौँ र?”
39 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Seeing that God has made all this clear to you, there is no other man of such wisdom and good sense as you:
त्यसैले फारोले योसेफलाई भने, “परमेश्वरले तिमीलाई यी सबै देखाउनुभएकोले तिमीजस्तै कुशल र बुद्धिमान् अरू कोही छैन ।
40 You, then, are to be over my house, and all my people will be ruled by your word: only as king will I be greater than you.
तिमी नै मेरो घरको अधिकारी हुनेछौ र तिम्रो वचनअनुसार नै मेरा सबै मानिस चल्नेछन् । सिंहासनमा मात्रै म तिमीभन्दा ठुलो हुनेछु ।”
41 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, See, I have put you over all the land of Egypt.
फारोले योसेफलाई भने, “हेर, मैले तिमीलाई मिश्र देशभरिको अधिकारी तुल्याएको छु ।”
42 Then Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand and put it on Joseph's hand, and he had him clothed with the best linen, and put a chain of gold round his neck;
फारोले आफ्नो औँलाबाट छाप-औँठी फुकाली योसेफको औँलामा लगाइदिए । तिनले योसेफलाई सुन्दर मलमलको लुगा पहिराइदिए र तिनको गलामा सुनको सिक्री लगाइदिए ।
43 And he made him take his seat in the second of his carriages; and they went before him crying, Make way! So he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt.
फारोले तिनलाई आफूसित भएको दोस्रो दर्जाको रथमा सवार गराए । मानिसहरू यसो भन्दै तिनको सामु चिच्च्याए, “घुँडा टेकेर झुक ।” फारोले तिनलाई सारा मिश्रको अधिकारी तुल्याए ।
44 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, I am Pharaoh; and without your order no man may do anything in all the land of Egypt.
फारोले योसेफलाई भने, “म फारो हुँ, र तिमीबाहेक अरू कसैले मिश्र देशमा आफ्नो इच्छाअनुसार कुनै काम गर्न पाउनेछैन ।”
45 And Pharaoh gave Joseph the name of Zaphnath-paaneah; and he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, the priest of On, to be his wife. So Joseph went through all the land of Egypt.
फारोले योसेफको नाउँ “सापनत-पानेह” राखिदिए । तिनले योसेफलाई पुजारी पोतीपेराकी छोरी आसनतसित विवाह गराइदिए । योसेफ मिश्र देशभरि जान्थे ।
46 Now Joseph was thirty years old when he came before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from before the face of Pharaoh and went through all the land of Egypt.
मिश्रका राष्ट्रप्रमुख फारोको सामु उभिँदा योसेफ तिस वर्षका थिए । योसेफ फारोको उपस्थितिबाट गई सारा मिश्र देशभरि चाहार्थे ।
47 Now in the seven good years the earth gave fruit in masses.
सहकालका सात वर्षमा जमिनले प्रचुर मात्रामा उब्जनी गर्यो ।
48 And Joseph got together all the food of those seven years, and made a store of food in the towns: the produce of the fields round every town was stored up in the town.
तिनले सात वर्षमा मिश्र देशका सबै अनाज सङ्कलन गरी त्यसलाई सहरहरूमा राखे । तिनले हरेक सहरमा वरिपरिका खेतहरूबाट अनाज थन्क्याएर राखे ।
49 So he got together a store of grain like the sand of the sea; so great a store that after a time he gave up measuring it, for it might not be measured.
योसेफले अन्नको भण्डारण समुद्रको बालुवासरह गरे । अन्न यति धेरै थियो कि तिनले हिसाब राख्नै छाडिदिए ।
50 And before the time of need, Joseph had two sons, to whom Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, priest of On, gave birth.
अनिकालका वर्षहरू सुरु हुनुभन्दा अगि योसेफले ओनका पुजारी पोतीपेराकी छोरी आसनतबाट दुई जना छोरा जन्माइसकेका थिए ।
51 And to the first he gave the name Manasseh, for he said, God has taken away from me all memory of my hard life and of my father's house.
योसेफले आफ्नो जेठो छोरोलाई मनश्शे नाउँ दिएका थिए किनकि तिनले भने, “परमेश्वरले मेरा र मेरा पिताका घरानाका सबै कष्ट बिर्सन लगाउनुभएको छ ।”
52 And to the second he gave the name Ephraim, for he said, God has given me fruit in the land of my sorrow.
तिनले दोस्रो छोरोको नाउँ एफ्राइम राखे किनकि तिनले भने, “परमेश्वरले मेरो कष्टलको देशमा मेरो फलिफाप गराउनुभएको छ ।”
53 And so the seven good years in Egypt came to an end.
मिश्र देशको सात वर्षको सहकालको अन्त्य भयो ।
54 Then came the first of the seven years of need as Joseph had said: and in every other land they were short of food; but in the land of Egypt there was bread.
योसेफले भनेजस्तै गरी सात वर्षको अनिकालको थालनी भयो । सबै देशहरूमा अनिकाल परेको थियो तर मिश्र देशमा भने अनाज थियो ।
55 And when all the land of Egypt was in need of food, the people came crying to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said to the people, Go to Joseph, and whatever he says to you, do it.
सारा मिश्र अनिकालले तडपिँदा जनताहरूले अनाजको लागि फारोलाई पुकारे । फारोले सबै मिश्रीहरूलाई भने, “योसेफकहाँ जाओ र तिनले भनेझैँ गर ।”
56 And everywhere on the earth they were short of food; then Joseph, opening all his store-houses, gave the people of Egypt grain for money; so great was the need of food in the land of Egypt.
अनिकालले पुरै देशलाई ढाकेको थियो । योसेफले सबै भण्डारणहरू खुला गरी मिश्रीहरूलाई अनाज बेचे । मिश्र देशमा अनिकाल अति भयानक थियो ।
57 And all lands sent to Egypt, to Joseph, to get grain, for the need was great over all the earth.
सारा संसारमा भयानक अनिकाल परेकोले सबै देशका मानिसहरू योसेफबाट अनाज किन्न मिश्रमा आउँदै थिए ।
