< Genesis 41 >

1 And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and, behold, he stood by the river.
E aconteceu que, ao fim de dois annos inteiros, Pharaó sonhou, e eis que estava em pé junto ao rio,
2 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, well-favoured and fat-fleshed; and they fed in the reed-grass.
E eis que subiam do rio sete vaccas, formosas á vista e gordas de carne, e pastavam no prado.
3 And, behold, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, ill favoured and lean-fleshed; and stood by the other kine upon the brink of the river.
E eis que subiam do rio após ellas outras sete vaccas, feias á vista e magras de carne; e paravam junto ás outras vaccas na praia do rio.
4 And the ill-favoured and lean-fleshed kine did eat up the seven well-favoured and fat kine. So Pharaoh awoke.
E as vaccas feias á vista, e magras de carne, comiam as sete vaccas formosas á vista e gordas. Então acordou Pharaó.
5 And he slept and dreamed a second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good.
Depois dormiu, e sonhou outra vez, e eis que brotavam d'uma cana sete espigas cheias e boas,
6 And, behold, seven ears, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
E eis que sete espigas miudas, e queimadas do vento oriental, brotavam após ellas.
7 And the thin ears swallowed up the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.
E as espigas miudas devoravam as sete espigas grandes e cheias. Então acordou Pharaó, e eis que era um sonho.
8 And it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt, and all the wise men thereof; and Pharaoh told them his dream; but there was none that could interpret them unto Pharaoh.
E aconteceu que pela manhã o seu espirito perturbou-se, e enviou e chamou todos os adivinhadores do Egypto, e todos os seus sabios; e Pharaó contou-lhes os seus sonhos, mas ninguem havia que os interpretasse a Pharaó.
9 Then spoke the chief butler unto Pharaoh, saying: 'I make mention of my faults this day:
Então fallou o copeiro-mór a Pharaó, dizendo: Dos meus peccados me lembro hoje:
10 Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me in the ward of the house of the captain of the guard, me and the chief baker.
Estando Pharaó mui indignado contra os seus servos, e pondo-me em guarda na casa do capitão da guarda, a mim e ao padeiro-mór,
11 And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.
Então sonhámos um sonho na mesma noite, eu e elle, cada um conforme a interpretação do seu sonho sonhámos.
12 And there was with us there a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard; and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams; to each man according to his dream he did interpret.
E estava ali comnosco um mancebo hebreu, servo do capitão da guarda, e contámos-lh'os, e interpretou-nos os nossos sonhos, a cada um os interpretou conforme o seu sonho.
13 And it came to pass, as he interpreted to us, so it was: I was restored unto mine office, and he was hanged.'
E como elle nos interpretou, assim mesmo foi feito: a mim me fez tornar ao meu estado, e a elle fez enforcar.
14 Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. And he shaved himself, and changed his raiment, and came in unto Pharaoh.
Então enviou Pharaó, e chamou a José, e o fizeram sair logo da cova; e barbeou-se e mudou os seus vestidos, e veiu a Pharaó.
15 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph: 'I have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it; and I have heard say of thee, that when thou hearest a dream thou canst interpret it.'
E Pharaó disse a José: Eu sonhei um sonho, e ninguem ha que o interprete; mas de ti ouvi dizer que quando ouves um sonho o interpretas.
16 And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying: 'It is not in me; God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.'
E respondeu José a Pharaó, dizendo: Sem mim é isso: Deus responderá paz a Pharaó.
17 And Pharaoh spoke unto Joseph: 'In my dream, behold, I stood upon the brink of the river.
Então disse Pharaó a José: Eis que em meu sonho estava eu em pé na praia do rio
18 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fat-fleshed and well-favoured; and they fed in the reed-grass.
E eis que subiam do rio sete vaccas gordas de carne e formosas á vista, e pastavam no prado.
19 And, behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor and very ill-favoured and lean-fleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness.
E eis que outras sete vaccas subiam após estas, muito feias á vista, e magras de carne; não tenho visto outras taes, emquanto á fealdade, em toda a terra do Egypto.
20 And the lean and ill-favoured kine did eat up the first seven fat kine.
E as vaccas magras e feias comiam os primeiras sete vaccas gordas;
21 And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them; but they were still ill-favoured as at the beginning. So I awoke.
E entravam em suas entranhas, mas não se conhecia que houvessem entrado em suas entranhas: porque o seu parecer era feio como no principio. Então acordei.
22 And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up upon one stalk, full and good.
Depois vi em meu sonho, e eis que d'uma cana subiam sete espigas cheias e boas;
23 And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
E eis que sete espigas seccas, miudas e queimadas do vento oriental, brotavam após ellas.
24 And the thin ears swallowed up the seven good ears. And I told it unto the magicians; but there was none that could declare it to me.'
E as sete espigas miudas devoravam as sete espigas boas. E eu disse-o aos magos, mas ninguem houve que m'o interpretasse.
25 And Joseph said unto Pharaoh: 'The dream of Pharaoh is one; what God is about to do He hath declared unto Pharaoh.
Então disse José a Pharaó: O sonho de Pharaó é um só; o que Deus ha de fazer, notificou a Pharaó.
26 The seven good kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one.
As sete vaccas formosas são sete annos; as sete espigas formosas tambem são sete annos: o sonho é um só
27 And the seven lean and ill-favoured kine that came up after them are seven years, and also the seven empty ears blasted with the east wind; they shall be seven years of famine.
E as sete vaccas feias á vista e magras, que subiam depois d'ellas, são sete annos; e as sete espigas miudas e queimadas do vento oriental, serão sete annos de fome.
28 That is the thing which I spoke unto Pharaoh: what God is about to do He hath shown unto Pharaoh.
Esta é a palavra que tenho dito a Pharaó; o que Deus ha de fazer, mostrou-o a Pharaó.
29 Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt.
E eis que veem sete annos, e haverá grande fartura em toda a terra do Egypto.
30 And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land;
E depois d'elles levantar-se-hão sete annos de fome, e toda aquella fartura será esquecida na terra do Egypto, e a fome consumirá a terra;
31 and the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine which followeth; for it shall be very grievous.
E não será conhecida a abundancia na terra, por causa d'aquella fome que haverá depois; porquanto será gravissima.
32 And for that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice, it is because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
E que o sonho foi duplicado duas vezes a Pharaó, é porquanto esta coisa é determinada de Deus, e Deus se apressa a fazel-a.
33 Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
Portanto Pharaó se proveja agora d'um varão entendido e sabio, e o ponha sobre a terra do Egypto:
34 Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint overseers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven years of plenty.
Faça isso Pharaó, e ponha governadores sobre a terra, e tome a quinta parte da terra do Egypto nos sete annos de fartura,
35 And let them gather all the food of these good years that come, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it.
E ajuntem toda a comida d'estes bons annos, que veem, e amontoem o trigo debaixo da mão de Pharaó, para mantimento nas cidades, e o guardem;
36 And the food shall be for a store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not through the famine.'
Assim será o mantimento para provimento da terra, para os sete annos de fome, que haverá na terra do Egypto; para que a terra não pereça de fome.
37 And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
E esta palavra foi boa aos olhos de Pharaó, e aos olhos de todos os seus servos.
38 And Pharaoh said unto his servants: 'Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom the spirit of God is?'
E disse Pharaó a seus servos: Achariamos um varão como este, em quem haja o espirito de Deus?
39 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph: 'Forasmuch as God hath shown thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou.
Depois disse Pharaó a José: Pois que Deus te fez saber tudo isto, ninguem ha tão entendido e sabio como tu
40 Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled; only in the throne will I be greater than thou.'
Tu estarás sobre a minha casa, e por tua bocca se governará todo o meu povo, sómente no throno eu serei maior que tu
41 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph: 'See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.'
Disse mais Pharaó a José: Vês aqui te tenho posto sobre toda a terra do Egypto.
42 And Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck.
E tirou Pharaó o seu annel da sua mão, e o poz na mão de José, e o fez vestir de vestidos de linho fino, e poz um collar d'oiro no seu pescoço,
43 And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him: 'Abrech'; and he set him over all the land of Egypt.
E o fez subir no segundo carro que tinha, e clamavam diante d'elle: Ajoelhae; assim o poz sobre toda a terra do Egypto.
44 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph: 'I am Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.'
E disse Pharaó a José: Eu sou Pharaó; porém sem ti ninguem levantará a sua mão ou o seu pé em toda a terra do Egypto
45 And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphenath-paneah; and he gave him to wife Asenath the daughter of Poti-phera priest of On. And Joseph went out over the land of Egypt. —
E chamou Pharaó o nome de José Zaphnath-paneah, e deu-lhe por mulher a Asenath, filha de Potiphera, sacerdote de On; e saiu José por toda a terra do Egypto.
46 And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. — And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.
E José era da edade de trinta annos quando esteve diante da face de Pharaó, rei do Egypto. E saiu José da face de Pharaó, e passou por toda a terra do Egypto.
47 And in the seven years of plenty the earth brought forth in heaps.
E a terra produziu nos sete annos de fartura a mãos cheias.
48 And he gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities; the food of the field, which was round about every city, laid he up in the same.
E ajuntou todo o mantimento dos sete annos, que houve na terra do Egypto, e guardou o mantimento nas cidades, pondo nas cidades o mantimento do campo que estava ao redor de cada cidade.
49 And Joseph laid up corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until they left off numbering; for it was without number.
Assim ajuntou José muitissimo trigo, como a areia do mar, até que cessou de contar; porquanto não havia numeração.
50 And unto Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asenath the daughter of Poti-phera priest of On bore unto him.
E nasceram a José dois filhos (antes que viesse um anno de fome), que lhe pariu Asenath, filha de Potiphera, sacerdote de On.
51 And Joseph called the name of the first-born Manasseh: 'for God hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house.'
E chamou José o nome do primogenito Manasseh; porque disse: Deus me fez esquecer de todo o meu trabalho, e de toda a casa de meu pae.
52 And the name of the second called he Ephraim: 'for God hath made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.'
E o nome do segundo chamou Ephraim; porque disse: Deus me fez crescer na terra da minha afflicção.
53 And the seven years of plenty, that was in the land of Egypt, came to an end.
Então acabaram-se os sete annos de fartura que havia na terra do Egypto,
54 And the seven years of famine began to come, according as Joseph had said; and there was famine in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
E começaram a vir os sete annos de fome, como José tinha dito; e havia fome em todas as terras, mas em toda a terra do Egypto havia pão.
55 And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians: 'Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you, do.'
E tendo toda a terra do Egypto fome, clamou o povo a Pharaó por pão; e Pharaó disse a todos os egypcios: Ide a José; o que elle vos disser, fazei.
56 And the famine was over all the face of the earth; and Joseph opened all the storehouses, and sold unto the Egyptians; and the famine was sore in the land of Egypt.
Havendo pois fome sobre toda a terra, abriu José tudo em que havia mantimento, e vendeu aos egypcios; porque a fome prevaleceu na terra de Egypto.
57 And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph to buy corn; because the famine was sore in all the earth.
E todas as terras vinham ao Egypto, para comprar de José; porquanto a fome prevaleceu em todas as terras.
