< 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.
Kum hni touh a loum hnukkhu, Faro ni mang a sak teh, thaihaw, palang rai vah a kangdue.
2 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven cows, of good appearance and fat in flesh; and they fed in the meadow.
A meikahawi ni teh kathâw e maitomanu hah tui thung hoi a tâco teh pho um vah apa.
3 And, behold, seven other cows came up after them out of the river, ill-favored and lean in flesh; and they stood by the other cows upon the brink of the river.
Hahoi khenhaw! maitomanu sari touh, a meikahawi hoeh ni teh kamsoe e hah tui thung hoi a tâco van teh palang rai vah kangdout e maitomanu teng vah a kangdue.
4 And the ill-favored and lean-fleshed cows did eat up the seven well-favored and fat cows. And Pharaoh awoke.
Maitomanunaw a meikahawihoeh ni teh kamsoe e naw ni a meikahawi ni teh kathâw e naw hah koung a ca awh. Hahoi teh Faro teh vak a kâhlaw.
5 And he slept and dreamed a second time: and, behold, seven ears of corn came up on one stalk, rank and good.
Hahoi bout a i teh mang bout a sak. Khenhaw! cakung buet touh dawk kahawi ni teh kalen e cavui sari touh a tâco.
6 And, behold, seven thin ears and blasted with the east wind sprung up after them.
Hahoi khenhaw! kathoengca ni teh Kanîtholae kahlî ni remke lah a hmang e cavui sari touh bout a tâco.
7 And the seven thin ears swallowed up the seven rank and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke, and, behold, it was a dream.
Cavui kathoengcae sari touh ni, cavui kalen ni teh kahawi e sari touh hah koung a payawp awh. Faro vak a kâhlaw teh khenhaw! mang lah ao.
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 the same unto Pharaoh.
A tangtho torei, a muitha a lungpuen teh tami a patoun. Izip ram e mitpaleikathoumnaw hoi tami lungang pueng a kaw teh Faro ni a mang hah a dei pouh. Hahoi Faro hanelah ka deicai thai e buet touh boehai awm hoeh.
9 Then spoke the chief of the butlers unto Pharaoh, saying, My faults I must call to remembrance this day:
Hatnavah misurtui kapoenaw kaukkung ni Faro koevah, sahnin ka yonnae ka kâpanue.
10 Pharaoh was wroth with his servants, and put me in ward in the house of the captain of the guards, me and the chief of the bakers;
A sannaw koevah, Faro a lungkhuek teh karingkungnaw kaukkung im vah kai hoi vaiyei kasakkungnaw kaukkung thongim ka bo roi navah,
11 And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each in accordance with the interpretation of his dream.
mang reirei ka sak roi. Kaimouh roi e mang hah deingainae kâvan hoeh e doeh.
12 And there was with us a Hebrew lad, a servant to the captain of the guards; and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams; to each according to his dream did he interpret.
Hawvah kaimouh karingkung e san Hebru tami buet touh ao teh mang hah ka dei pouh roi. Ahni ni mang heh a deicai teh ka mang roi e patetlah a deicai van.
13 And it came to pass, just as he had interpreted to us, so it was; me he restored unto my office, and him he hanged.
A deicai e patetlah mang teh reirei a tâco van. Kai teh thaw bout tawk sak lah ka o teh, ahni teh kai thi sak e lah ao telah ati.
14 Then Pharaoh sent and had Joseph called, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon: and he shaved himself, and changed his garments, and came in unto Pharaoh.
Hat toteh, Faro ni Joseph hah tang a kaw sak. Ka rang poung lah thongim thung a thung patuen dawk e a rasa awh teh, a pâkhamuen a ngaw hnukkhu a khohna a kâthung teh Faro koe a kâen.
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 thou canst understand a dream to interpret it.
Faro ni Joseph koe mang ka sak teh ka deicaikung apihai awm hoeh. Hatei nang ni mang heh na thaipanuek teh, na deicai thai telah ayânaw ni dei e hah ka thai telah ati.
16 And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me; God will give an answer for the peace of Pharaoh.
Joseph ni Faro koe hot teh kai koe awm hoeh. Cathut ni Faro koe roumnae lahoi a deicai han doeh telah ati.
17 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the brink of the river;
Faro ni Joseph koe ka mang lavah khenhaw! palang rai ka kangdue.
18 And, behold, there came up out of the river seven cows, fat in flesh and good in shape; and they fed in the meadow;
Hahoi khenhaw! maitomanu a meikahawi ni teh kathâw e sari touh tuithung hoi a tâco teh pho um vah a pâ.
19 And, behold, seven other cows came up after them, poor and very ill-shaped and lean in flesh; I never saw any like these in all the land of Egypt for ugliness;
Hahoi alouke maitomanu a meikamathout niteh, ka kamsoe e hot patet e meimathout teh Izip ram pueng dawk patenghai ka hmu boihoeh e hah a tâco.
20 And the lean and the ill-favored cows did eat up the first seven fat cows;
Hahoi a mei kathout ni teh ka kamsoe e maitomanunaw ni kathâw e maitomanunaw hah koung a ca awh.
21 And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them; but their appearance was still as bad as at the beginning. And I awoke.
Koung a ca awh hnukkhu patenghai yah apinihai a ca awh tie panuek kalawn hoeh. A ca awh hoehnahlan e patetlah a mei a mathoe awh mingming, hahoi vak ka kâhlaw.
22 And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up on one stalk, full and good;
Hahoi ka mang lavah khenhaw! Cakung buet touh dawkvah, cavui kahawipoung e sari touh a tâco.
23 And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them;
Hahoi khenhaw! cavui sari touh kamyai ni teh kathoengcae, Kanîtholae kahlî ni remke lah a hmang e a tâco e hah bout ka hmu.
24 And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I told this unto the magicians; but there was none that could tell it to me.
Cavui kathoutnaw ni cavui kahawinaw sari touh hah koung a ca awh. Hote mang hah mitpaleikathoumnaw ka dei pouh ei, apinihai deicai thai awh hoeh, telah a dei.
25 And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, the dream of Pharaoh is one, that which God is about to do, he hath told to Pharaoh.
Joseph ni Faro koe Faro nange mang heh buet touh doeh. Cathut ni a sak hane hah Faro koe na panue sak e doeh.
26 The seven good cows are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years; the dream is one.
Meikahawi e maitomanu sari touh teh kum sari touh doeh. Kahawi e cavui sari touh hai kum sari touh doeh. Mang teh buet touh doeh.
27 And the seven thin and ill-favored cows that came up after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears, blasted with the east wind, shall be seven years of famine.
Hahoi a hnukkhu vah ka tâcawt e a mei kathout ni teh ka kamsoe e maitomanu sari touh hai kum sari touh doeh. Cavui sari touh Kanîtholae kahlî ni remke lah a hmang e hai kum sari touh doeh.
28 This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he hath shown unto Pharaoh.
Hetheh, Faro koe ka dei e Cathut ni a sak hane Faro a panue sak e doeh.
29 Behold, there are coming seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:
Izip ram vah khobunae kum sari touh ao han.
30 And there shall arise seven years of famine after them, when all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land;
Hatei, hat hnukkhu takangnae kum sari touh bout ao han. Hottelah takang ni ram teh voutthoup lah ao sak han dawkvah, khobunae kum pueng hah Izip ram teh pahnim e lah ao han.
31 And the plenty shall not be known in the land by reason of that famine following it; for it shall be very grievous.
Rek ka tho e takang teh puenghoi a pataw han dawkvah, khobunae kum hah pahnim lah ao han.
32 And as it respecteth that the dream was doubled unto Pharaoh twice, it is because the thing is firmly resolved on by God, and God hasteneth to bring it to pass.
Hahoi mang vai hni totouh Faro a mangsaknae teh hete hno kecu dawk doeh. Sak hane teh Cathut ni a caksak teh Cathut roeroe ni karanglah a pha sak han.
33 Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
Hatdawkvah, Faro ni tami buet touh a lungkaang e hoi kho ka pouk thai e tawng nateh Izip ram vah kahrawikung lah awm sak naseh.
34 Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part [of the produce] of the land of Egypt in the seven years of plenty.
Faro ni hotheh sak naseh, ram thung vah Izip ram cakang hah pung panga pung touh pâtung naseh.
35 And let them gather up all the food of those good years that are coming, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, as food in the cities, and keep the same.
Ahnimouh ni khobu kum cakang pung hah pâkhueng vaiteh Faro kâtawnnae rahim vah o hanelah kho tangkuem hmalah ca hane pâtung naseh, khenyawn awh naseh.
36 And that 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 be not cut off through the famine.
Hottelah takang kecu dawk ram a rawk hoeh nahanlah, takangnae kum kum sari touh Izip ram ka phat hane dawkvah, kâhruetcuet lah ao han, telah ati.
37 And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
Hottelah pouknae a poe e hah, Faro hoi a sannaw pueng ni ahawi rip ati awh.
38 And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom the spirit of God is?
Hottelah Faro ni a sannaw koe het patet e Cathut Muitha onae tami heh hmu thai awh han na ou telah ati.
39 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Inasmuch as God hath caused thee to know all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou:
Faro ni Joseph koe Cathut ni hote hnonaw pueng hah na panue sak dawkvah, nang patetlae tami lungkaang hoi hno kaawm hane oang ka panuek e awm hoeh.
40 Thou shalt be over my house, and according to thy word shall all my people be ruled, only in regard to the throne will I be greater than thou.
Nang teh kaie imthung karingkung lah na o han, ka taminaw pueng hah nange kâ lahoi ao awh han, bawitungkhung dueng hah nang hlak kai bet ka lenhnawn han telah ati.
41 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.
Faro ni Joseph koe khenhaw! Izip ram pueng dawk kahrawikung lah na ta toe telah ati.
42 And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a golden chain about his neck;
Faro ni kutnoutthutnae kuthrawt hah a rading teh, Joseph kut dawk a buet pouh, hni loukloukkaang e hoi sak e hah a kâkhu sak teh a lahuen dawk sui dingyin hah a awi sak.
43 And he caused him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bend the knee: and he placed him [thus] over all the land of Egypt.
A tawn e leng kahni touh dawk a kâcui sak teh, a hmalah tabut awh, telah a hram awh. Hottelah Izip ram thung kahrawikung lah a coung sak.
44 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I am Pharaoh; but without thee shall no man lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.
Faro ni Joseph koevah, kai teh Faro doeh, nange kâpoe laipalah Izip ram thung pueng a kut hai thoseh, a khok hai thoseh, dâw thai mahoeh telah ati.
45 And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphenath-pa'neach; and he gave him Assenath the daughter of Poti-phera', the priest of On, for wife. And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.
Faro ni Joseph hah Zaphnath-Paaneah telah min a poe. On kho e vaihma Potiphar canu Asenath hah a yu lah a paluen pouh awh. Hahoi Joseph teh Izip ram kaukkung lah ahni koehoi a cei.
46 And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh the king of Egypt; and Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.
Joseph teh Izip siangpahrang Faro hmalah a kangdue navah, kum 30 touh doeh Joseph teh Faro koehoi a tâco teh Izip ram pueng dawk a cei.
47 And the earth brought forth in the seven years of plenty by handfuls.
Khobu kum kum sari touh thung talai ni puenghoi a pawhik a tâco sak.
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 of the city, which was round about it, laid he up in the same.
Izip ram e khobu kum kum sari touh thung e cakang pueng hah a pâkhueng teh kho tangkuem tengpam e cakang hah a hmouk sak.
49 And Joseph heaped up corn as the sand of the sea, very much; until he left off numbering, for it was without number.
Joseph ni cakang hah talî teng e sadi patetlah kapappoung lah a pâtung, touk patenghai touk ngai hoeh toe, bangkongtetpawiteh, touklek hoeh toe.
50 And unto Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, whom Assenath the daughter of Poti-phera' the priest of On, bore unto him.
Hahoi takang a tho hoehnahlan vah Joseph ni capa kahni toun a tawn. Hotnaw teh On kho vaihma Potiphar canu Asenath ni a khe pouh e naw doeh.
51 And Joseph called the name of the first-born Menasseh: For God [said he] hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house.
Joseph ni a camin hah Manasseh telah a phung. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut ni ka tawntamnae hoi apa imthung pueng na pahnim sak telah ati.
52 And the name of the second he called Ephraim; For God [said he] hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.
Hahoi a capa apâhni e min teh Ephraim telah a phung. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut ni kaie runae ram dawk ca catounnaw na tawn sak telah ati.
53 And the seven years of plenty, that was in the land of Egypt, were ended.
Hottelah Izip ram ka phat e khobu kum teh a loum.
54 And the seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said; and there was famine in all the countries, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
Hahoi takang kum kum sari touh Joseph ni a dei tangcoung patetlah a kamtawng teh ram pueng dawk a pha. Hatei, Izip ram pueng dawk rawca ao.
55 And when all the land of Egypt also felt hunger, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread: and Pharaoh said unto all the Egyptians, Go unto Joseph; what he saith to you, do.
Hottelah Izip ram pueng teh takang ni koung a pha toteh, Faro koe rawca hei hoi a hram awh. Faro ni Izipnaw pueng koe Joseph koe cet awh nateh, a dei e pueng sak awh telah atipouh.
56 And the famine was over all the face of the earth: and Joseph opened all the store-houses, wherein corn was, and sold unto the Egyptians; for the famine grew strong in the land of Egypt.
Hahoi takang teh talai van pueng a pha teh, Joseph ni cakang pâtungnae tâsong pueng hah a paawng teh Izipnaw koevah a yo pouh. Izip ram vah takang teh puenghoi a pataw.
57 And all the countries came into Egypt to buy corn of Joseph; because the famine was sore in all the countries.
Talai van pueng dawk takang teh a pataw poung dawkvah, kho tangkuem e tami pueng teh cakang ran hanelah Izip ram e Joseph koe a cei awh.
