Genesis 41
1 A full two years later, Pharaoh had a dream that he was standing beside the River Nile.
Seli too rua ma, mane Masir a nalamein nae, eni nambari sia loe Nil suu na.
2 He saw seven cows coming up from the river. They looked well-fed and healthy as they grazed among the reeds.
Aiboiꞌ ma, nita sapi mbaruna hitu. Rou nara manggadidilaꞌ. Ara dea reu mia loe a, de raa uru sia naa.
3 Then he saw another seven cows that came up behind them. They looked ugly and skinny as they stood beside the other cows on the bank of the Nile.
Boe ma, sapi hitu fai, dea reu mia loe a. Ao nara nggodaꞌ ra. Ara rambariiꞌ deka ro sapi maao ka hituꞌ ra.
4 Then the ugly, skinny cows ate the well-fed, healthy cows. Then Pharaoh woke up.
Basa ma, sapi nggoda ka hituꞌ ra odꞌo hendi sapi maaoꞌ ra. Boe ma maneꞌ a nggengger de fela.
5 Pharaoh fell asleep again and had a second dream. Seven heads of grain were growing on one stalk, ripe and healthy.
Nda dooꞌ sa ma, ana sungguꞌ seluꞌ fai, de nalamein. Nita are mbule maisiꞌ hitu dea rema mia are huu meulauꞌ esa.
6 Then seven heads of grain grew up after them, thin and dried by the east wind.
Basa ma, nita seluꞌ, are mbule lakaꞌ hitu, loe-lesu rae reu, dai ani matobꞌiꞌ.
7 The seven thin and dried heads of grain swallowed up the ripe and healthy ones. Then Pharaoh woke up and realized he'd been dreaming.
Boe ma basa are mbule lakaꞌ ra odꞌo hendi are mbule maisi ka hituꞌ ra. Basa naa ma, maneꞌ a fela. Dei de ana nahine, eni nalamein fai.
8 The next morning Pharaoh was worried by his dreams, so he sent for all the magicians and wise men in Egypt. Pharaoh told them about his dreams, but no one could interpret their meaning for him.
Fefetu anan ma, maneꞌ a namedꞌa nda maloleꞌ sa. De ana parenda atahori ra reu roꞌe basa mana tiroura ra ma atahori mahineꞌ sia Masir ra. Basa de ana dui meit na neu se, te nda hambu esa nahine meit na sosoa na sa.
9 But then the chief cupbearer spoke up. “Today I've just remembered a bad mistake I've made,” he explained.
Basa ma, pagau mana tao mataꞌ neu maneꞌ a nininu na, nasanedꞌa Yusuf. De nafadꞌe maneꞌ a nae, “Ama maneꞌ. Au musi utaa sala.
10 “Your Majesty was angry with some of your officials and you imprisoned me in the house of the commander of the guard, along with the chief baker.
Maꞌahulu naa, amaꞌ namanasa au, o nonoo ngga, de tao hai bui rala mi.
11 We each had a dream. They were different dreams, each with its own meaning.
Tetembaꞌ esa ma, hai ruꞌa nggi milimein. Esa-esaꞌ no meit na, ma meit naa ra, esa-esaꞌ no sosoa na.
12 A young Hebrew was there with us, a slave of the commander of the guard. When we told him our dreams, he interpreted for us the meaning of our different dreams.
Sia bui rala o hambu atahori Ibrani esa feꞌe soruꞌ. Malangga bui a soꞌu e dadꞌi malangga mana tao mataꞌ sia bui. Hai dui meit mara neu e. Boe ma ana nafadꞌe meit naa ra sosoa na.
13 Everything happened just as he said it would—I was given back my job and the baker was hanged.”
De ama maneꞌ soꞌu baliꞌ au. Te nonoo ngga naa, nenehukun mate. De basa naa ra, onaꞌ atahori Ibrani naa oꞌola na!”
14 Pharaoh summoned Joseph, and they quickly brought him from the prison. After he'd shaved and changed his clothes, he was presented to Pharaoh.
Maneꞌ a rena nala ma, ana denu atahori lai-lai reu haꞌi Yusuf mia bui a. De Yusuf neu eu timi fulu na, tao ao na meuꞌ-meuꞌ, ma nggati bua-baꞌu na, fo neu nandaa no maneꞌ a.
15 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I had a dream, but no one can interpret its meaning. But I've heard that when someone tells you a dream you know how to interpret it.”
Ana losa, boe ma maneꞌ a olaꞌ nae, “Taꞌo ia. Au ulumein, te nda hambu atahori esa nahine meit naa sosoa na sa. Te atahori rafadꞌe au rae, ho malaꞌ.”
16 “It's not me who can do this,” Joseph replied. “But God will explain its meaning to set Your Majesty's mind at rest.”
Boe ma Yusuf nataa nae, “Ama maneꞌ. Au o nda alaꞌ saa saꞌ boe. Akaꞌ a Lamatualain mana nalaꞌ tebꞌe meit ma sosoa na. Ana nau nafadꞌe dala maloleꞌ neu ama maneꞌ.”
17 Pharaoh explained to Joseph, “In my dream I was standing on the bank of the Nile.
Boe ma, maneꞌ a dui nae, “Sia meit ngga, au umburiꞌ sia loe Nil suu na.
18 I saw seven cows coming up from the river. They looked well-fed and healthy as they grazed among the reeds.
Hambu sapi maaoꞌ hitu, rou nara manggadidilaꞌ. Ara dea rema mia loe a, de raa uru mia loe suu na.
19 Then I saw another seven cows that came up behind them. They looked sickly and ugly and skinny—I've never seen such ugly cows in the whole of Egypt!
Basa ma sapi feaꞌ hitu rema. Te sapi naa ra nggoda ruiꞌ. Sia rae Masir ia, au nda feꞌe ita sapi nggodaꞌ onaꞌ naa sa!
20 These skinny, ugly cows ate the first seven healthy-looking cows.
De au titindindiꞌ a. Huu aiboiꞌ ma, sapi nggoda kahituꞌ ra, odꞌo hendi sapi maao kahituꞌ ra.
21 But afterwards you couldn't tell they'd eaten them because they looked just as skinny and ugly as before. Then I woke up.
Ara odꞌo basa ma, ao nara nggodaꞌ feꞌe na ena. Boe ma au fela boe.
22 Then I fell asleep again. In my second dream I saw seven heads of grain growing on one stalk, ripe and healthy.
Basa ma, au sungguꞌ seluꞌ, de ulumein fai. Ita are mbule maisiꞌ hitu, dea rema mia are hauꞌ esa.
23 Then seven heads of grain grew up after them, withered and thin and dried by the east wind.
Boe ma, ita are mbuleꞌ lakaꞌ hitu, loe-lesu rae reu, dai ani matobꞌiꞌ.
24 The seven thin heads of grain swallowed up the healthy ones. I told all this to the magicians, but none of them could explain its meaning to me.”
Boe ma are mbule lakaꞌ ra, odꞌo hendi are mbule maisi ka hituꞌ ra. Ma au fela boe. Au dui meit naa ra reu atahori mahineꞌ ra. Te nda hambu esa nahine sosoa na saꞌ boe.”
25 “Pharaoh's dreams mean the same thing,” Joseph responded. “God is telling Pharaoh what he is going to do.
Dei de Yusuf nafadꞌe nae, “Ama maneꞌ. Meit ka ruaꞌ naa ra sosoa na akaꞌ esa. Lamatualain nafadꞌe memaꞌ ama maneꞌ, saa fo Eni nae tao.
26 The seven good cows and the seven good heads of grain represent seven good years of harvest. The dreams mean the same thing.
Meit naa ra sosoa na taꞌo ia: sapi ka hitu maaoꞌ naa ra, ma are mbule maisi ka hituꞌ naa ra, naeni fula-fai betas too hitu. Sosoa nara akaꞌ esaꞌ a.
27 The seven skinny and ugly cows that came after them and the seven thin heads of grain dried by the east wind represent seven years of famine.
Boe ma, sapi nggoda kahituꞌ ra, ma are mbule laka kahituꞌ naa ra, fula-fai ndoe-laꞌas too hitu.
28 It's just as I told Your Majesty—God has shown Pharaoh what he is going to do.
No taꞌo naa, Lamatualain nafadꞌe memaꞌ saa fo Eni nae taoꞌ a. Naa, onaꞌ au olaꞌ faꞌ ra.
29 There are going to be seven years with plenty of food produced throughout the whole country of Egypt.
Dei fo hita hambu fula-fai betas too hitu ndule mamanaꞌ sia nusa Masir ia.
30 But after them will come seven years of famine. People will forget the time when there was plenty of food throughout Egypt. Famine will ruin the country.
Basa fo hita hambu fula-fai ndoe-laꞌas too hitu. Fula-fai ndoe-laꞌas naa manaseliꞌ, losa nda hambu nanaat sia nusaꞌ ia sa. Basa atahori ndoe rala seli, de nda afiꞌ rasanedꞌa fula-fai betas naa sa ena.
31 The time of plenty will be completely forgotten because the famine that follows it will be so terrible.
32 The fact that the dream was repeated twice means that it has definitely been decided by God, and that God is going to do this soon.
Dadꞌi ama maneꞌ nalamein lao rua naa ra, sosoa na nae, Lamatualain nafadꞌe memaꞌ saa fo Eni nae taoꞌ naa. Nda doo sa te, ara sangga rae dadꞌi ena.
33 So Your Majesty should choose a man with insight and wisdom, and put him in charge of the whole country of Egypt.
Huu naa, au oꞌe taꞌo ia: malole lenaꞌ ama maneꞌ sangga atahori mahineꞌ esa mana tao mataꞌ nalaꞌ no maloleꞌ. Fo soꞌu e fo tao malolole nusaꞌ ia.
34 Your Majesty should also appoint officials to be in charge of the land, and have them collect one-fifth of the produce of the country during the seven years of plenty.
Fula-fai betas too hitu naa, malole lenaꞌ ama maneꞌ soꞌu atahori feaꞌ fai, fo radꞌuru nanaat lenaꞌ, fo banggi neu lima ma mbedaꞌ babanggiꞌ esa.
35 They should collect all the food during the good years that are soon coming, and store the grain under Pharaoh's authority, keeping it under guard to provide food for the towns.
Ara musi tungga ama maneꞌ parenda na, fo reu haꞌi are mia basa kamboꞌ sia Masir. Fo ara mbedaꞌ are sia soka-poleꞌ ra fo nenea malolole.
36 This will be a food reserve for the country during the seven years of famine so that the people won't die of starvation.”
Fo too hitu ndoe-laꞌas losa, te, hita feꞌe taꞌena nanaat. Naa fo nda hambu atahori mate ndoes sa.”
37 Pharaoh and all his officials thought Joseph's proposal was a good idea.
Maneꞌ no pagau monaeꞌ ra rena Yusuf oꞌola na ma, ara tungga e.
38 So Pharaoh asked them, “Where can we find a man like this who has the spirit of God in him?”
Maneꞌ a olaꞌ nae, “Lamatualain Dula-dalen koasa na, sia Yusuf. Naa de, hita nda bisa hambu atahori feaꞌ lenaꞌ e sa.”
39 Then Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, telling him, “Since God has revealed to you all this, and there's no one like you with such insight and wisdom,
Maneꞌ a olaꞌ no Yusuf nae, “Lamatualain nafadꞌe basa ia neu nggo. Ia naa, hai feꞌe bubꞌuluꞌ ho mahineꞌ. Ma ho dudꞌuꞌa ma lenaꞌ basa atahori.
40 you will be in charge of all my affairs, and all my people will obey your orders. Only I with my status as king will be greater than you.”
Naa de, ia naa au soꞌu nggo dadꞌi fetor ngga. Dei fo basa rauinggu nggara tungga parenda ma. Te akaꞌ a au fo lenaꞌ nggo.”
41 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Look, I'm putting you in charge of the whole country of Egypt.”
Basa naa ma, maneꞌ a olu hendi ndeli stempel na, de olu neu Yusuf lima uꞌu na. Boe ma olaꞌ nae, “No ndeli ia, au soꞌu nggo dadꞌi fetor ngga sia basa nusa Masir ia.” Boe ma ana olu badꞌu naru meulauꞌ esa neu Yusuf, ma boꞌoli rante liloꞌ neu boto na.
42 Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his finger and put it on Joseph's finger. He dressed him in fine linen clothes and placed a golden chain around his neck.
43 He had Joseph ride in the chariot designated for his second-in-command while his attendants went ahead, shouting, “Bow down!” This is how Pharaoh gave Joseph authority over all of Egypt.
Ma ana fee kareta ndara karua na neu Yusuf fo sae. Atahori rela raꞌahuluꞌ reu mataꞌ ma nggasi rasafafali rae, “We! Soi dalaꞌ o! Fee hadat! Fetor nema tungga ia.” No taꞌo naa, maneꞌ a soꞌu Yusuf dadꞌi fetor sia nusa Masir.
44 Then Pharaoh told Joseph, “I am Pharaoh, but without your permission nobody will lift a hand or a foot anywhere in the whole country.”
Basa naa ma, maneꞌ a olaꞌ no Yusuf nae, “Taꞌo ia. Ho bubꞌuluꞌ au ia maneꞌ. Te au ufadꞌe basa atahori sia Masir ia ae, mete ma ho nda munggoloꞌ sa naa, ara nda bole tao saa saꞌ boe.”
45 Pharaoh gave Joseph the name Zaphenath-paneah, and arranged for him to marry Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On. This is how Joseph rose to power over the whole of Egypt.
Basa naa ma, maneꞌ a babꞌae Yusuf Safnat Panea, tungga atahori Masir ra naran. Ana naꞌasasaoꞌ Yusuf no inaꞌ esa, naran Asnat. Yusuf ama ari na, naran Potifera. Eni mana tao mataꞌ neu agama sia kambo On. No taꞌo naa, Yusuf dadꞌi atahori monaeꞌ sia nusa Masir.
46 Joseph was thirty when he started working for Pharaoh, king of Egypt. After he had left Pharaoh, Joseph traveled on an inspection tour throughout Egypt.
Leleꞌ maneꞌ a soꞌu Yusuf, ana too telu nulu ena. Basa ma, ana neu lao ndule basa mamanaꞌ sia nusa Masir.
47 During the seven years of good harvests, the land produced plenty of food.
Sia too hitu fula-fai betas naa, osi ra nanaat nara nae na seli.
48 He collected all the food during the seven good years, and he stored the grain produced in the local fields in each town.
Yusuf denu radꞌuru nanaat lenaꞌ ra, de mbedaꞌ se. Are mia mamana deka kamboꞌ bee naa, mbedaꞌ se sia soka-poleꞌ sia kamboꞌ naa.
49 Joseph piled up so much grain that it was like the sand of the seashore. Eventually he stopped keeping records because there was just so much!
Are fo ana nadꞌuruꞌ naa, nae na seli. Onaꞌ saraaeꞌ sia tasi suu na, de nda hambu atahori uku rala sa ena.
50 It was during this time, before the years of famine came, that Joseph had two sons by Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On.
Fula-fai ndoe-laꞌas nda feꞌe losa sa te, Yusuf sao na Asnat bꞌonggi ana touꞌ rua.
51 Joseph named his firstborn Manasseh, because he said, “The Lord has made me forget all my troubles and all my father's family.”
Yusuf olaꞌ nae, “Lamatualain tao au liliiꞌ doidꞌoso ngga leleꞌ au lao hela ama ngga ume na.” Naa de ana babꞌae ana ulu na Manase (lii na naꞌe a onaꞌ dedꞌea feaꞌ, fo sosoa na ‘liliiꞌ’).
52 His second son he named Ephraim, because he said, “God has made me fruitful in the country of my misery.”
Ana hambu ana karua na, boe ma olaꞌ fai nae, “Au hambu doidꞌosoꞌ naeꞌ sia mamanaꞌ ia. Te Lamatualain fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ, ma au hambu anaꞌ sia ia.” De ana babꞌae anaꞌ naa Efraim (sosoa na ‘hambu anaꞌ’).
53 The seven years of plenty in Egypt came to an end,
Fula-fai betas too hita a basa ma,
54 and the seven years of famine began, just as Joseph had said. There was famine in all the other countries but the whole of Egypt had food.
fula-fai ndoe-laꞌas too hita losa, nandaa no saa fo Yusuf nafadꞌe maꞌahulu na. Sia mamana feaꞌ, atahori ndoe, te basa mamanaꞌ sia Masir, hambu nanaat.
55 When all of Egypt was hungry, the people cried out to Pharaoh for food, and he told everyone, “Go and see Joseph and do whatever he tells you.”
Dꞌoo-dꞌoo ma, atahori Masir ra o ndoe boe. De ara reu roꞌe nanaat sia maneꞌ a. Boe ma ana denu se risiꞌ Yusuf, fo tunggaꞌ a Yusuf parenda na.
56 The famine had spread all over the country so Joseph opened all the storehouses and sold grain to the people of Egypt. The famine was very bad in Egypt,
Te ndoe-laꞌas manaseliꞌ, de basa atahori sia Masir o ndoe boe. Dei de, Yusuf sefi soka-poleꞌ ra de seo are fee atahori Masir ra.
57 in fact the famine was very bad everywhere, so people from other countries all around came to Egypt to buy grain from Joseph.
Basa naa ma, atahori ra mia bee-bꞌee rema hasa nanaat mia Yusuf sia Masir. Huu ndoe-laꞌas manaseliꞌ.
