Genesis 41
1 And it comes to pass, at the end of two years of days that Pharaoh is dreaming, and behold, he is standing by the River,
Alò, li te vin rive nan lafin dezane, Farawon te fè yon rèv, e gade byen, li te kanpe devan lariviyè Nil lan.
2 and behold, from the River coming up are seven cows, of beautiful appearance, and fat [in] flesh, and they feed among the reeds;
Konsa, gade byen, sèt bèf te sòti nan lariviyè Nil lan, byen swa, e byen gra. Yo t ap manje nan zèb flèv la.
3 and behold, seven other cows are coming up after them out of the River, of bad appearance, and lean [in] flesh, and they stand near the cows on the edge of the River,
Epi gade byen, sèt lòt bèf te sòti nan lariviyè Nil lan, byen lèd e mèg, e yo te kanpe akote lòt bèf bò kote lariviyè Nil lan.
4 and the cows of bad appearance and lean [in] flesh eat up the seven cows of beautiful appearance, and fat—and Pharaoh awakens.
Bèf ki te lèd e mèg yo te manje valè sèt bèf ki te swa e byen gra yo. Epi konsa, Farawon te vin leve nan dòmi.
5 And he sleeps, and dreams a second time, and behold, seven ears are coming up on one stalk, fat and good,
Li te tonbe dòmi ankò, e fè rèv yon dezyèm fwa. Konsa, sèt tèt mayi te vini sou yon sèl pye mayi, ki te gwo e bon.
6 and behold, seven ears, thin, and blasted with an east wind, are springing up after them;
Epi gade byen, sèt tèt, mèg ki brile pa van lès yo, te vin boujonnen dèyè yo.
7 and the thin ears swallow the seven fat and full ears—and Pharaoh awakens, and behold, a dream.
Tèt mèg yo te valè sèt tèt ki te gra e byen plen yo. Alò, Farawon te leve, e gade byen, sa se te yon rèv.
8 And it comes to pass in the morning, that his spirit is moved, and he sends and calls all the enchanters of Egypt, and all its wise men, and Pharaoh recounts to them his dream, and there is no interpreter of them to Pharaoh.
Alò, nan maten lespri li te vin twouble, e li te voye rele tout majisyen an Égypte yo, ak tout moun saj li yo. Konsa, Farawon te eksplike yo rèv li yo, men pa t gen pèsòn ki te kapab entèprete yo pou Farawon.
9 And the chief of the butlers speaks with Pharaoh, saying, “I mention my sin this day:
Alò, chèf responsab pote manje a te pale a Farawon. Li te di li: “Jodi a, mwen ta dwe admèt yon tò ke m genyen.
10 Pharaoh has been angry against his servants, and puts me in confinement in the house of the chief of the executioners, me and the chief of the bakers;
Farawon te byen fache avèk sèvitè li yo, e li te fè m anprizone lakay Kaptenn kò gad la, mwen menm avèk chèf boulanje a.
11 and we dream a dream in one night, I and he, each according to the interpretation of his dream we have dreamed.
Nou te fè yon rèv nan menm nwit lan, mwen menm ak li menm tou. Nou chak te fè yon rèv ak pwòp entèpretasyon pa li.
12 And there [is] with us a youth, a Hebrew, servant to the chief of the executioners, and we recount to him, and he interprets to us our dreams, [to] each according to his dream has he interpreted,
Alò, te gen yon jennonm ki te la avèk nou, yon sèvitè kaptenn kò gad la, yon Ebre. Nou te pale rèv yo a li menm, e li te entèprete rèv nou yo pou nou. A chak moun li te entèprete selon pwòp rèv pa li.
13 and it comes to pass, as he has interpreted to us so it has been, me he put back on my station, and him he hanged.”
Epi jan ke li te entèprete pou nou an, konsa li te vin rive. Mwen menm te vin restore nan pozisyon mwen, e li menm, lòt la, wa a te pann.”
14 And Pharaoh sends and calls Joseph, and they cause him to run out of the pit, and he shaves, and changes his garments, and comes to Pharaoh.
Alò, Farawon te voye rele Joseph. Avèk vitès, yo te mennen li sòti nan prizon an. Depi li fin taye bab li e chanje rad li, li te vini devan Farawon.
15 And Pharaoh says to Joseph, “I have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it, and I have heard concerning you, saying, You understand a dream to interpret it,”
Farawon te di a Joseph: “Mwen te fè yon rèv, men pa gen pèsòn ki kapab entèprete li. Men mwen tande pale de ou menm ke lè ou tande yon rèv, ou kapab bay entèpretasyon li.”
16 and Joseph answers Pharaoh, saying, “Without me—God answers Pharaoh with peace.”
Joseph te reponn Farawon. Li te di: “Sa pa nan mwen, men Bondye va bay Farawon yon repons favorab.”
17 And Pharaoh speaks to Joseph: “In my dream, behold, I am standing by the edge of the River,
Alò, Farawon te pale avèk Joseph: “Nan rèv mwen an, men gade, mwen te kanpe arebò Rivyè Nil lan.
18 and behold, out of the River coming up are seven cows, fat [in] flesh, and of beautiful form, and they feed among the reeds;
Epi gade byen, sèt bèf, gra e swa te vin monte sòti nan Nil lan; yo t ap manje nan zèb arebò rivyè a.
19 and behold, seven other cows are coming up after them, thin, and of very bad form, and lean [in] flesh; I have not seen like these in all the land of Egypt for badness.
Epi gade byen, sèt lòt bèf te vin monte apre yo, kata, lèd e mèg, konsa, mwen pa t janm wè youn ki lèd nan tout peyi Égypte la.
20 And the lean and the bad cows eat up the first seven fat cows,
Epi bèf mèg ak lèd yo te manje premye sèt bèf gra yo.
21 and they come in to their midst, and it has not been known that they have come in to their midst, and their appearance [is] bad as at the commencement; and I awake.
E lè yo te fin devore yo, ou pa t kab konnen si yo te manje yo, paske yo te rete mèg menm jan yo te ye avan an. Epi se konsa mwen te vin leve.
22 And I see in my dream, and behold, seven ears are coming up on one stalk, full and good;
“Mwen te wè nan rèv mwen an tou, byen parèt, se te sèt tèt mayi, plen e bon te vini sou yon sèl pye.
23 and behold, seven ears, withered, thin, blasted with an east wind, are springing up after them;
Epi gade, sèt tèt sèch yo, ki brile pa van lès yo te vin pouse apre yo.
24 and the thin ears swallow the seven good ears; and I tell [it] to the enchanters, and there is none declaring [it] to me.”
Konsa, tèt sèch yo te valè sèt bon tèt yo. Epi alò, mwen te pale sa a majisyen yo, men pa t gen youn ki ta kapab eksplike m afè sila a.”
25 And Joseph says to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one: that which God is doing he has declared to Pharaoh;
Alò, Joseph te di a Farawon: “Rèv a Farawon yo se yon sèl ke yo ye; Bondye te di a Farawon kisa ki prèt pou fèt.
26 the seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good ears are seven years, the dream is one;
Sèt bon bèf yo se sèt ane; epi sèt bon tèt yo se sèt ane; rèv sa yo se yon sèl yo ye.
27 and the seven thin and bad cows which are coming up after them are seven years, and the seven empty ears, blasted with an east wind, are seven years of famine;
Sèt bèf lèd ak mèg yo ki te sòti apre yo a se sèt ane, e sèt tèt mèg ki brile pa van lès la va sèt ane ak gwo grangou.
28 this [is] the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh: God has shown Pharaoh what He is doing.
“Se tankou mwen te pale a Farawon: “Bondye te montre Farawon kisa ki prèt pou rive.
29 Behold, seven years are coming of great abundance in all the land of Egypt,
Gade byen, sèt ane ak gran abondans yo ap vini nan peyi Égypte la.
30 and seven years of famine have arisen after them, and all the plenty is forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine has finished the land,
Epi apre yo, sèt ane ak gwo grangou yo va vini, tout abondans sa a va gen tan bliye nan peyi Égypte la, e gwo grangou sa a va ravaje peyi a.
31 and the plenty is not known in the land because of that famine afterward, for it [is] very grievous.
Alò, abondans lan p ap sonje nan peyi a akoz konsekans gwo grangou a, paske li va vrèman rèd.
32 And because of the repeating of the dream to Pharaoh twice, surely the thing is established by God, and God is hurrying to do it.
Alò, pou afè repete rèv la de fwa a, li vle di Farawon ke koze sa a deja detèmine pa Bondye, e Bondye va fè l parèt byen vit.
33 And now, let Pharaoh provide a man, intelligent and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt;
“Alò, Farawon gen pou chèche yon nonm avèk konprann ak sajès, pou mete li responsab sou peyi Égypte la.
34 let Pharaoh make and appoint overseers over the land, and receive a fifth of the land of Egypt in the seven years of plenty,
Kite Farawon aji pou chwazi administratè k ap pran chaj peyi a, e kite yo egzije yon senkyèm nan rekòlt peyi Égypte la, nan sèt ane abondans lan.
35 and they gather all the food of these good years that are coming, and heap up grain under the hand of Pharaoh—food in the cities; and they have kept [it],
Konsa, kite yo ranmase tout manje nan bon ane sa yo k ap vini an, mete yo nan depo pou vil ki anba otorite Farawon yo, e kite yo mete yo anba gad.
36 and the food has been for a store for the land, for the seven years of famine which are in the land of Egypt; and the land is cut off by the famine.”
Kite manje yo vini yon rezèv pou peyi a pandan sèt ane gwo grangou yo ki va fèt nan peyi Égypte la, pou peyi a pa peri pandan gwo grangou a.”
37 And the thing is good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants,
Alò, plan sa a te parèt bon a Farawon, ak tout sèvitè li yo.
38 and Pharaoh says to his servants, “Do we find like this, a man in whom the Spirit of God [is]?”
Alò, Farawon te di a sèvitè li yo: “Èske nou kapab twouve yon lòt moun konsa, nan sila a ki gen Lespri Bondye?”
39 And Pharaoh says to Joseph, “After God’s causing you to know all this, there is none intelligent and wise as you;
Epi Farawon te di a Joseph: “Akoz Bondye te fè ou konprann tout sa, nanpwen okenn lòt moun ki gen konprann ak sajès tankou ou menm.
40 you are over my house, and at your mouth do all my people kiss; only in the throne I am greater than you.”
Ou va sou tout lakay mwen, e selon lòd pa ou tout pèp mwen an ap fè obeyisans. Se sèl sou twòn nan ke mwen va pi wo pase ou.”
41 And Pharaoh says to Joseph, “See, I have put you over all the land of Egypt.”
Farawon te di a Joseph: “Ou wè, mwen plase ou sou tout peyi Égypte la.”
42 And Pharaoh turns aside his seal-ring from off his hand, and puts it on the hand of Joseph, and clothes him [with] garments of fine linen, and places a chain of gold on his neck,
Alò, Farawon te retire bag so a nan men li. Li te mete li nan men Joseph, e li te abiye l ak rad len fen ak yon kolye lò nan kou li.
43 and causes him to ride in the second chariot which he has, and they proclaim before him, “Bow the knee!” And [he] set him over all the land of Egypt.
Li te fè l monte nan dezyèm cha li a, epi li te pwoklame devan li: “Mete ajenou!” Epi li te plase li sou tout peyi Égypte la.
44 And Pharaoh says to Joseph, “I [am] Pharaoh, and without you a man does not lift up his hand and his foot in all the land of Egypt”;
Anplis de sa, Farawon te di a Joseph: “Malgre mwen se Farawon, san pèmisyon pa ou, pèsòn p ap leve ni men li ni pye li sou tout peyi Égypte la.”
45 and Pharaoh calls Joseph’s name Zaphnath-Paaneah, and he gives to him Asenath daughter of Poti-Pherah, priest of On, for a wife, and Joseph goes out over the land of Egypt.
Alò, Farawon te nonmen Joseph Tsaphnath-Paenéach. Li te bay li Asnath, fi a Poti-Phéra a, prèt On an, kòm madanm li. Epi Joseph te plase sou tout peyi Égypte la.
46 And Joseph [is] a son of thirty years in his standing before Pharaoh king of Egypt, and Joseph goes out from the presence of Pharaoh, and passes over through all the land of Egypt;
Alò, Joseph te gen laj trant ane lè li te kanpe devan Farawon, wa Égypte la. Epi Joseph te sòti nan prezans Farawon, e li te ale toupatou nan tout peyi Égypte la.
47 and the land makes in the seven years of plenty by handfuls.
Pandan sèt ane abondans yo, peyi a te pwodwi anpil.
48 And he gathers all the food of the seven years which have been in the land of Egypt, and puts food in the cities; the food of the field which [is] around [each] city has he put in its midst;
Konsa, Joseph te ranmase tout manje pandan sèt ane sa yo ki te ekoule nan peyi Égypte la, e li te mete manje yo nan vil yo. Li te mete nan chak vil, menm manje ki te sòti nan chan ki antoure li yo.
49 and Joseph gathers grain as sand of the sea, multiplying exceedingly, until he has ceased to number, for there is no number.
Konsa, Joseph te ranmase sereyal an gran abondans tankou sab lanmè, jiskaske li te vin sispann mezire li, paske li te depase kontwòl.
50 And to Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine comes, whom Asenath daughter of Poti-Pherah, priest of On, has borne to him,
Alò, avan ane gwo grangou a te rive, de fis te vin ne a Joseph ke Asnath, fi a Poti-Phéra a, prèt On an te fè pou li.
51 and Joseph calls the name of the firstborn Manasseh: “For God has made me to forget all my labor, and all the house of my father”;
Joseph te nonmen premye ne a Manassé, paske li te di: “Bondye te fè m bliye tout pwoblèm mwen yo ak tout lakay papa m.”
52 and the name of the second he has called Ephraim: “For God has caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
Li te nonmen dezyèm nan Éphraïm, paske li te di: “Bondye fè mwen bay anpil fwi nan peyi afliksyon mwen an.”
53 And the seven years of plenty are completed which have been in the land of Egypt,
Sèt ane abondans ki te nan peyi Égypte la te fin pase.
54 and the seven years of famine begin to come, as Joseph said, and famine is in all the lands, but in all the land of Egypt has been bread;
Epi sèt ane gwo grangou a te kòmanse, jis jan ke Joseph te di. Alò te vin gen gwo grangou nan tout peyi yo, men nan peyi Égypte la te gen pen.
55 and all the land of Egypt is famished, and the people cry to Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh says to all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph; that which he says to you—do.”
Lè tout peyi Égypte la te grangou, yo te rele fò a Farawon pou bay pen. Konsa, Farawon te di tout Ejipsyen yo: “Ale wè Joseph. Nenpòt sa li mande nou, nou va fè l.”
56 And the famine has been over all the face of the land, and Joseph opens all [places] which have [grain] in them, and sells to the Egyptians; and the famine is severe in the land of Egypt,
Gwo grangou a te fin gaye sou tout sifas tè a. Konsa, Joseph te ouvri tout depo yo pou te vann manje bay Ejipsyen yo. Gwo grangou a te byen rèd nan peyi Égypte la.
57 and all the earth has come to Egypt, to buy, to Joseph, for the famine was severe in all the earth.
Pèp yo de tout peyi te vini an Égypte pou achte sereyal Joseph yo, akoz gwo grangou a te rèd sou tout tè a.
