< Genesis 41 >

1 And it came to pass after two full years that Pharao had a dream. He thought he stood upon [the bank of] the river.
Erga waggaan lama guutuun darbee booddee Faraʼoon abjuu tokko abjoote. Kunoo inni qarqara laga Abbayyaa dhaabachaa ture.
2 And lo, there came up as it were out of the river seven cows, fair in appearance, and choice of flesh, and they fed on the sedge.
Kunoo, saawwan babbareedoo fi gagabbatoon torba laga Abbayyaa keessaa ol baʼan; isaanis shambaqqoo keessa dheedaa turan.
3 And other seven cows came up after these out of the river, ill-favoured and lean-fleshed, and fed by the [other] cows on the bank of the river.
Ammas kunoo, saawwan fofokkisoo fi huhuqqatoon kanneen biraa torba laga Abbayyaa keessaa ol baʼanii saawwan ededa lagaa turan sana bira dhadhaabatan.
4 And the seven ill-favoured and lean cows devoured the seven well-favoured and choice-fleshed cows; and Pharao awoke.
Saawwan fofokkisoo fi huhuqqatoon sunis saawwan babbareedoo fi gagabbatoo torban sana nyaatan. Faraʼoonis hirribaa dammaqe.
5 And he dreamed again. And, behold, seven ears came up on one stalk, choice and good.
Ammas deebiʼee rafee abjuu lammaffaa abjoote; kunoo mataan midhaanii torba misee tolee somaa tokko irratti guddachaa ture.
6 And, behold, seven ears thin and blasted with the wind, grew up after them.
Ergasii immoo kunoo mataan midhaan qaqancaroo hobombolettii baʼaa biiftuutiin gubatanii torba biraa bibbiqilan.
7 And the seven thin ears and blasted with the wind devoured the seven choice and full ears; and Pharao awoke, and it was a dream.
Mataan midhaan qaqancaroo sanaas mataa misee tole torban sana lilliqimse; Faraʼoonis hirribaa dammaqe; kunoo wanni sunis abjuu ture.
8 And it was morning, and his soul was troubled; and he sent and called all the interpreters of Egypt, and all her wise men; and Pharao related to them his dream, and there was no one to interpret it to Pharao.
Ganama sana yaadni isaa ni jeeqame; inni nama ergee tolfattootaa fi beektota Gibxi hunda waamsifate. Faraʼoonis abjuu isaa isaanitti hime; garuu namni abjuu sana isaaf hiikuu dandaʼu tokko illee hin argamne.
9 And the chief cupbearer spoke to Pharao, saying, I this day remember my fault:
Ergasii itti gaafatamaan dhugaatii sun Faraʼooniin akkana jedhe; “Ani harʼa balleessaa koo yaadadheera.
10 Pharao was angry with his servants, and put us in prison in the house of the captain of the guard, both me and the chief baker.
Yeroo tokko Faraʼoon tajaajiltoota isaatti aaree anaa fi itti gaafatamaa buddeenaa sana mana ajajaa waardiyyaa keessatti hidhe.
11 And we had a dream both in one night, I and he; we saw, each according to his dream.
Tokkoon tokkoon keenya halkanuma tokkoon abjuu abjoonne; tokkoon tokkoon abjuu sanaas hiikkaa mataa isaa qaba ture.
12 And there was there with us a young man, a Hebrew servant of the captain of the guard; and we related to him [our dreams], and he interpreted [them] to us.
Ibrichi dargaggeessi tokko nu wajjin achi ture; innis tajaajilaa ajajaa eegumsaa ture. Nu abjuu keenya itti himannaan inni tokkoo tokkoo keenyaaf akkuma abjuu keenyaatti hiikkaa isaa nutti hime.
13 And it came to pass, as he interpreted them to us, so also it happened, both that I was restored to my office, and that he was hanged.
Akkuma inni nuu hiike sana taʼe; ani iddoo kootti nan deebiʼe; namichi kaanis ni fannifame.”
14 And Pharao having sent, called Joseph; and they brought him out from the prison, and shaved him, and changed his dress, and he came to Pharao.
Faraʼoonis nama ergee Yoosefin waamsise; boolla hidhaa keessaa baasaniis dafanii isa fidan. Innis haaddatee uffata isaas geeddarratee fuula Faraʼoon duratti dhiʼaate.
15 And Pharao said to Joseph, I have seen a vision, and there is no one to interpret it; but I have heard say concerning thee that thou didst hear dreams and interpret them.
Faraʼoonis Yoosefiin, “Ani abjuu abjoodheen ture; garuu namni tokko iyyuu naa hiikuu hin dandeenye. Ani akka ati yeroo abjuu dhageessu hiikuu dandeessu dhagaʼeera” jedhe.
16 And Joseph answered Pharao and said, Without God an answer of safety shall not be given to Pharao.
Yoosef immoo, “Ani hiikuu hin dandaʼu; Waaqni garuu Faraʼooniif deebii nagaa ni kenna” jedhee Faraʼooniif deebise.
17 And Pharao spoke to Joseph, saying, In my dream methought I stood by the bank of the river;
Faraʼoonis Yoosefiin akkana jedhe; “Ani abjuu kootiin qarqara laga Abbayyaa irra dhaabachaan ture;
18 and there came up as it were out of the river, seven cows well-favoured and choice-fleshed, and they fed on the sedge.
Kunoo saawwan gagabbatoo fi babbareedoon torba lagicha keessaa ol baʼanii shambaqqoo keessa dheedaa turan.
19 And behold seven other cows came up after them out of the river, evil and ill-favoured and lean-fleshed, such that I never saw worse in all the land of Egypt.
Isaan duubaan immoo saawwan huhuqqatoo, baayʼee fofokkisoo fi qaqalloon biraa torba ol baʼan; ani takkumaa saawwan fofokkisoo akkanaa guutummaa biyya Gibxi keessatti hin argine.
20 And the seven ill-favoured and thin cows ate up the seven first good and choice cows.
Saawwan huhuqqatoo fi fofokkisoon sun saawwan gagabbatoo duraan ol baʼan torban sana nyaatan.
21 And they went into their bellies; and it was not perceptible that they had gone into their bellies, and their appearance was ill-favoured, as also at the beginning; and after I awoke I slept,
Garuu erga isaan nyaatanii booddee namni tokko illee akka isaan saawwan sana nyaatan beekuu hin dandeenye; isaan akkuma utuu hin nyaatiniin dura turan sana fofokkisoo turaniitii. Anis hirribaa nan dammaqe.
22 and saw again in my sleep, and as it were seven ears came up on one stem, full and good.
“Akkasumas ani abjuu kootiin mataa midhaanii torba kan misee fi gaggaarii somaa tokko irratti guddachaa jiru nan arge.
23 And other seven ears, thin and blasted with the wind, sprang up close to them.
Isaan duubaanis kunoo mataan midhaanii cocoollagaan, qaqallaan kan hobombolettii baʼa biiftuutiin gubate torba ol baʼe.
24 And the seven thin and blasted ears devoured the seven fine and full ears: so I spoke to the interpreters, and there was no one to explain it to me.
Mataawwan midhaanii qaqalʼaan sun mataa midhaanii gaggaarii torban sana liqimsan; anis waan kana tolchitootatti nan hime; garuu namni tokko iyyuu naa ibsuu hin dandeenye.”
25 And Joseph said to Pharao, The dream of Pharao is one; whatever God does, he has shewn to Pharao.
Yoosef immoo Faraʼooniin akkana jedhe; “Abjuun Faraʼoon lamaanuu tokkuma. Waaqni waan hojjechuuf jiru Faraʼoonitti mulʼiseera.
26 The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good ears are seven years; the dream of Pharao is one.
Saawwan babbareedoon torba waggaa torba; mataawwan midhaanii gaggaarii torbas waggaa torba; abjuun sun tokkuma.
27 And the seven thin kine that came up after them are seven years; and the seven thin and blasted ears are seven years; there shall be seven years of famine.
Saawwan qaqalloo fi fofokkisoon torban duubaan ol baʼanis waggaa torba; mataawwan midhaanii qaqancaroon hobombolettii baʼa biiftuutiin gubatan torban immoo waggoota beelaa torba.
28 And as for the word which I have told Pharao, whatsoever God intends to do, he has shewn to Pharao:
“Wanni kun akkuma ani Faraʼoonitti himee dha. Waaqni waan hojjechuuf jiru Faraʼoonitti argisiiseera.
29 behold, for seven years there is coming great plenty in all the land of Egypt.
Barri quufaa guddaan isaa torba biyya Gibxi guutuutti ni dhufa;
30 But there shall come seven years of famine after these, and they shall forget the plenty that shall be in all Egypt, and the famine shall consume the land.
isaan booddeedhaan garuu waggoonni beelaa torba ni dhufu. Quufni biyya Gibxi hundi ni irraanfatama; beelli sunis biyya balleessa.
31 And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of the famine that shall be after this, for it shall be very grievous.
Waan beelli duubaan dhufu sun baayʼee hamaa taʼuuf quufni biyyattii hin yaadatamu.
32 And concerning the repetition of the dream to Pharao twice, [it is] because the saying which is from God shall be true, and God will hasten to accomplish it.
Abjuun kun bifa lamaan Faraʼoonitti kennamuun isaa waan dubbichi Waaqaan murteeffameef dha; Waaqnis waan kana dafee ni raawwata.
33 Now then, look out a wise and prudent man, and set him over the land of Egypt.
“Kanaafuu Faraʼoon nama hubataa fi beekaa tokko filatee biyya Gibxi irratti haa muudu.
34 And let Pharao make and appoint local governors over the land; and let them take up a fifth part of all the produce of the land of Egypt for the seven years of the plenty.
Faraʼoon akka isaan waggoota quufaa torban keessa midhaan biyya Gibxiitii galfamu harka shan keessaa harka tokko walitti qabaniif qondaaltota biyya irratti haa muudu.
35 And let them gather all the food of these seven good years that are coming, and let the corn be gathered under the hand of Pharao; let food be kept in the cities.
Isaanis waggoota gaarii dhufuuf jiran kana keessa midhaan hunda walitti haa qaban; akka nyaataaf taʼuufis midhaan kana taayitaa Faraʼoon jalatti magaalaawwan keessatti haa kuusan; haa eeganis.
36 And the stored food shall be for the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; and the land shall not be utterly destroyed by the famine.
Midhaan kunis akka biyyattiin beelaan hin badneef waggoota beelaa torban Gibxitti dhufuuf jiru keessa akka fayyaduuf biyyattiidhaaf ol haa kaaʼamu.”
37 And the word was pleasing in the sight of Pharao, and in the sight of all his servants.
Dubbichis Faraʼoonii fi qondaaltota isaa hunda biratti gaarii ture.
38 And Pharao said to all his servants, Shall we find such a man as this, who has the Spirit of God in him?
Faraʼoonis, “Nama akka namicha kanaa kan Hafuurri Waaqaa keessa jiru argachuu dandeenyaa ree?” jedhee isaan gaafate.
39 And Pharao said to Joseph, Since God has shewed thee all these things, there is not a wiser or more prudent man than thou.
Faraʼoonis Yoosefiin akkana jedhe; “Erga Waaqni waan kana hunda sitti mulʼise, namni akka kee hubataa fi beekaa taʼe tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
40 Thou shalt be over my house, and all my people shall be obedient to thy word; only in the throne will I excel thee.
Ati masaraa koo irratti itti gaafatamaa taata; sabni koo hundinuus ajaja kee jalatti bula. Ani ulfina teessoo qofaan si caala.”
41 And Pharao said to Joseph, Behold, I set thee this day over all the land of Egypt.
Faraʼoonis Yoosefiin, “Ilaa, ani biyya Gibxi hunda irratti si muudeera” jedhe.
42 And Pharao took his ring off his hand, and put it on the hand of Joseph, and put on him a robe of fine linen, and put a necklace of gold about his neck.
Ergasii Faraʼoon qubeelaa chaappaa isaa quba isaa irraa baasee quba Yoosefitti kaaʼe. Uffata quncee talbaa haphii irraa hojjetame isatti uffise; amartii warqee morma isaatti kaaʼe.
43 And he mounted him on the second of his chariots, and a herald made proclamation before him; and he set him over all the land of Egypt.
Innis gaarii isaa isa lammaffaa irra isa teessise; namoonnis, “Sagadaa!” jechaa fuula isaa dura deemanii iyyaa turan; akkanaan Faraʼoon biyya Gibxi hunda irratti isa muude.
44 And Pharao said to Joseph, I am Pharao; without thee no one shall lift up his hand on all the land of Egypt.
Ergasiis Faraʼoon Yoosefiin, “Ani Faraʼoonii dha; garuu ajaja kee malee namni guutummaa Gibxi harka isaa yookaan miilla isaa sochoosu tokko iyyuu hin jiru” jedhe.
45 And Pharao called the name of Joseph, Psonthomphanech; and he gave him Aseneth, the daughter of Petephres, priest of Heliopolis, to wife.
Faraʼoonis Yoosefiif maqaa Zaafenaat-Phaneʼaa jedhamu baase; intala Phooxiiferaa lubicha magaalaa Ooni kan Aasenati jedhamtu illee itti heerumsiise. Yoosefis biyya Gibxi hunda keessa naannaʼe.
46 And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharao, king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharao, and went through all the land of Egypt.
Yoosef yeroo tajaajila Faraʼoon mooticha Gibxi jalqabetti nama waggaa soddomaa ture; innis fuula Faraʼoon duraa baʼee deemee biyya Gibxi hunda keessa nanaannaʼe.
47 And the land produced, in the seven years of plenty, [whole] handfuls [of corn].
Waggoota quufaa torban sana keessa lafti midhaan akka malee baayʼatu kennite.
48 And he gathered all the food of the seven years, in which was the plenty in the land of Egypt; and he laid up the food in the cities; the food of the fields of a city round about it he laid up in it.
Yoosefis midhaan waggoota torban sana keessa Gibxii galfame hunda walitti qabee magaalaawwan keessatti kuuse. Midhaan lafa qotiisaa naannoo magaalaas tokkoo tokkoo magaalaa sanaa keessatti kuuse.
49 And Joseph gathered very much corn as the sand of the sea, until it could not be numbered, for there was no number [of it].
Yoosefis midhaan baayʼinni isaa guddaa akka cirracha galaanaa taʼe kuuse. Waan midhaan sun safaramuu hin dandaʼaminiif inni safaruu dhiise.
50 And to Joseph were born two sons, before the seven years of famine came, which Aseneth, the daughter of Petephres, priest of Heliopolis, bore to him.
Yoosef utuu waggoonni beelaa sun hin dhufin dura Aasenati intala Phooxiiferaa lubicha magaalaa Ooni irraa ilmaan lama dhalche.
51 And Joseph called the name of the first-born, Manasse; for God, [said he], has made me forget all my toils, and all my father's house.
Yoosefis, “Waaqni rakkina koo hundaa fi mana abbaa koo hunda na irraanfachiiseera” jedhee maqaa ilma isaa hangaftichaa Minaasee jedhee moggaase.
52 And he called the name of the second, Ephraim; for God, [said he], has increased me in the land of my humiliation.
“Waaqni biyya ani itti rakkadhe keessatti na baayʼiseera” jedhee ilma isaa isa lammaffaa immoo Efreem jedhee moggaase.
53 And the seven years of plenty passed away, which were in the land of Egypt.
Gibxi keessatti waggoonni quufaa torban sun darbee,
54 And the seven years of famine began to come, as Joseph said; and there was a famine in all the land; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
akkuma Yoosef dubbate sana waggoonni beelaa torba jalqabe. Biyyoota biraa hunda keessa beelatu ture; biyya Gibxi guutuu keessa garuu midhaanitu ture.
55 And all the land of Egypt was hungry; and the people cried to Pharao for bread. And Pharao said to all the Egyptians, Go to Joseph, and do whatsoever he shall tell you.
Yeroo Gibxi guutuun beelaʼuu jalqabetti namoonni midhaan barbaadanii Faraʼoonitti iyyatan; Faraʼoon immoo warra Gibxi hundumaan, “Yoosef bira dhaqaatii waan inni isinitti himu godhaa” jedhe.
56 And the famine was on the face of all the earth; and Joseph opened all the granaries, and sold to all the Egyptians.
Beelli guutuummaa biyyattii keessa babalʼannaan Yoosef mankuusaalee hundumaa banee namoota Gibxitti midhaan gurgure; beelli Gibxi hunda keessatti hammaatee tureetii.
57 And all countries came to Egypt to buy of Joseph, for the famine prevailed in all the earth.
Waan guutuu addunyaa irratti beelli hammaateef biyyoonni hundinuu Yoosef irraa midhaan bitachuuf gara Gibxi dhufaa turan.
