Genesis 40
1 It happened after these things that the cupbearer of the king of Egypt and his baker offended their lord, the king of Egypt.
Beberapa waktu kemudian dua pelayan raja Mesir, yaitu pengurus minuman dan pengurus rotinya, membuat kesalahan terhadap raja.
2 Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker.
Maka marahlah raja kepada kedua pelayannya itu,
3 So he put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the prison, the place where Joseph was confined.
lalu mereka dimasukkannya ke dalam penjara di rumah kepala pengawal istana, di tempat Yusuf ditahan.
4 The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he attended them. They stayed in prison for some time.
Lama juga mereka di penjara itu, dan kepala pengawal istana menugaskan Yusuf untuk melayani mereka.
5 And the cupbearer and the baker for the king of Egypt, who were confined in jail, both had a dream the same night, and each dream had its own meaning.
Pada suatu malam pengurus minuman dan pengurus roti itu masing-masing bermimpi. Arti mimpi mereka itu tidak sama.
6 Joseph met them in the morning and looked at them and saw that they were sad.
Ketika Yusuf datang kepada mereka keesokan paginya, mereka kelihatan sedih.
7 He asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in custody in his master's house, saying, "Why do you look so sad today?"
Lalu ia bertanya, "Mengapa Saudara-saudara begitu sedih hari ini?"
8 They said to him, "We both had dreams, but there is no one who can interpret it." Joseph said to them, "Do not interpretations belong to God? Please tell it to me."
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 cupbearer told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, "In my dream, look, a vine was in front of me,
Pengurus minuman itu berkata, "Dalam mimpi itu saya melihat ada pohon anggur di depan saya.
10 and in the vine were three branches. When it budded, its blossoms opened, and its clusters ripened into grapes.
Pohon itu bercabang tiga. Baru saja cabang-cabangnya mulai berdaun, segera bunga-bunganya berkembang, lalu buahnya menjadi masak.
11 Pharaoh's cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes and squeezed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I placed the cup into Pharaoh's hand."
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 Then Joseph said to him, "This is its interpretation: the three branches are three days.
Yusuf berkata, "Inilah keterangannya: Tiga cabang itu artinya tiga hari.
13 Within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your office. You will put Pharaoh's cup into his hand as you used to when you were his cupbearer.
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 But remember me when it goes well for you, and please do me the kindness to mention me to Pharaoh and get 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 indeed, I was kidnapped from the land of the Hebrews, and even here I have done nothing that they should have put me into the pit."
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 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was favorable, he said to Joseph, "I also appeared in my dream, and look, three baskets of white bread were on 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 In the top basket there was all kinds of baked goods for Pharaoh, but the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head."
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 its interpretation: the three baskets are three days.
Jawab Yusuf, "Inilah keterangan mimpi itu: Tiga keranjang itu artinya tiga hari.
19 Within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head from off you, and impale you on a pole, and the birds will eat your flesh off you."
Dalam tiga hari ini raja akan menyuruh orang memenggal kepalamu lalu menggantungkan mayatmu pada sebuah tiang, dan burung-burung akan makan dagingmu."
20 And it happened on the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he gave a feast for all his servants, and he lifted up the head of the chief cupbearer and the head of the chief baker among his servants.
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 He restored the chief cupbearer to his position again, and he placed the cup into Pharaoh's hand;
Pengurus minuman dikembalikannya kepada jabatan yang dahulu.
22 but he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
Tetapi pengurus roti dihukum mati. Semuanya itu terjadi sesuai dengan apa yang dikatakan Yusuf.
23 But the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.
Tetapi pengurus minuman itu tidak ingat lagi kepada Yusuf. Ia sama sekali lupa padanya.
