Genesis 40
1 After this, it came to pass, that two eunuchs, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, offended their lord.
Beberapa waktu kemudian dua pelayan raja Mesir, yaitu pengurus minuman dan pengurus rotinya, membuat kesalahan terhadap raja.
2 And Pharao being angry with them (now the one was chief butler, the other chief baker)
Maka marahlah raja kepada kedua pelayannya itu,
3 He sent them to the prison of the commander of the soldiers, in which Joseph also was prisoner,
lalu mereka dimasukkannya ke dalam penjara di rumah kepala pengawal istana, di tempat Yusuf ditahan.
4 But the keeper of the prison delivered them to Joseph, and he served them. Some little time passed, and they were kept in custody.
Lama juga mereka di penjara itu, dan kepala pengawal istana menugaskan Yusuf untuk melayani mereka.
5 And they both dreamed a dream the same night, according to the interpretation agreeing to themselves:
Pada suatu malam pengurus minuman dan pengurus roti itu masing-masing bermimpi. Arti mimpi mereka itu tidak sama.
6 And when Joseph was come in to them in the morning, and saw them sad,
Ketika Yusuf datang kepada mereka keesokan paginya, mereka kelihatan sedih.
7 He asked them, saying: Why is your countenance sadder today than usual?
Lalu ia bertanya, "Mengapa Saudara-saudara begitu sedih hari ini?"
8 They answered: We have dreamed a dream, and there is nobody to interpret it to us. And Joseph said to them: Doth not interpretation belong to God? Tell me what you have dreamed.
Jawab mereka, "Tadi malam kami mimpi, dan tidak ada yang tahu artinya." Kata Yusuf, "Cuma Allah yang memungkinkan orang menerangkan arti mimpi. Coba ceritakan mimpimu itu."
9 The chief butler first told his dream: I saw before me a vine,
Pengurus minuman itu berkata, "Dalam mimpi itu saya melihat ada pohon anggur di depan saya.
10 On which were three branches, which by little and little sent out buds, and after the blossoms brought forth ripe grapes:
Pohon itu bercabang tiga. Baru saja cabang-cabangnya mulai berdaun, segera bunga-bunganya berkembang, lalu buahnya menjadi masak.
11 And the cup of Pharao was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into the cup which I held, and I gave the cup to Pharao.
Pada waktu itu saya sedang memegang gelas minuman raja, jadi saya ambil buah anggur itu dan saya peras ke dalam gelas raja, lalu saya hidangkan kepadanya."
12 Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three branches are yet three days:
Yusuf berkata, "Inilah keterangannya: Tiga cabang itu artinya tiga hari.
13 After which Pharao will remember thy service, and will restore thee to thy former place: and thou shalt present him the cup according to thy office, as before thou wast wont to do.
Dalam tiga hari ini raja akan membebaskan engkau, ia akan mengampuni engkau dan mengembalikan engkau kepada jabatanmu yang dahulu. Engkau akan menghidangkan gelas minuman kepada raja seperti dahulu.
14 Only remember me, when it shall be well with thee, and do me this kindness: to put Pharao in mind to take me out of this prison:
Tetapi ingatlah kepada saya apabila keadaanmu sudah baik. Tolong sampaikan persoalan saya kepada raja, supaya saya dibebaskan dari penjara ini.
15 For I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here without any fault was cast into the dungeon.
Sebab, sebetulnya dahulu saya diculik dari negeri orang Ibrani dan di sini pun, di Mesir ini, tidak pernah saya melakukan sesuatu kejahatan sampai harus dimasukkan ke dalam penjara."
16 The chief baker seeing that he had wisely interpreted the dream, said: I also dreamed a dream, That I had three baskets of meal upon my head:
Setelah pengurus roti itu tahu bahwa arti mimpi pengurus minuman itu baik, maka dia pun berkata kepada Yusuf, "Saya bermimpi juga, saya menjunjung tiga buah keranjang roti di atas kepala.
17 And that in one basket which was uppermost, I carried all meats that are made by the art of baking, and that the birds ate out of it.
Dalam keranjang yang paling atas terdapat bermacam-macam kue-kue untuk raja, tetapi burung-burung datang memakan kue-kue itu."
18 Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three baskets are yet three days:
Jawab Yusuf, "Inilah keterangan mimpi itu: Tiga keranjang itu artinya tiga hari.
19 After which Pharao will take thy head from thee, and hang thee on a cross, and the birds shall tear thy flesh.
Dalam tiga hari ini raja akan menyuruh orang memenggal kepalamu lalu menggantungkan mayatmu pada sebuah tiang, dan burung-burung akan makan dagingmu."
20 The third day after this was the birthday of Pharao: and he made a great feast for his servants, and at the banquet remembered the chief butler, and the chief baker.
Tiga hari kemudian adalah hari ulang tahun raja, dan ia mengadakan pesta besar bagi semua pegawai. Ia memerintahkan supaya pengurus minuman dan pengurus roti dikeluarkan dari penjara dan dibawa ke hadapan semua pegawai istana.
21 And he restored the one to his place to present him the cup:
Pengurus minuman dikembalikannya kepada jabatan yang dahulu.
22 The other he hanged on a gibbet, that the truth of the interpreter might be shewn.
Tetapi pengurus roti dihukum mati. Semuanya itu terjadi sesuai dengan apa yang dikatakan Yusuf.
23 But the chief butler, when things prospered with him, forgot his interpreter.
Tetapi pengurus minuman itu tidak ingat lagi kepada Yusuf. Ia sama sekali lupa padanya.
