Genesis 40
1 And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt, and the baker, had sinned against their lord the king of Egypt.
Patapita nthawi, woperekera zakumwa ndi wopanga buledi a ku nyumba kwa mfumu ya ku Igupto analakwira mbuye wawoyo.
2 Then fell the wroth of Pharaoh upon his two courtiers, upon the chief of the butlers, and upon the chief of the bakers;
Farao anapsa mtima ndi akuluakulu awiriwa,
3 so he delivered them up into the ward of the house of the chief of the royal executioners, into the prison, —the place where Joseph was imprisoned.
ndipo anakawatsekera mʼndende, nakawayika mʼmanja mwa mkulu wa asilikali olonda ku nyumba kwa mfumu kuja, mʼndende momwe Yosefe ankasungidwamo.
4 And the chief of the royal executioners charged Joseph with them and he waited upon them, and they were some days in ward.
Mkulu wa alonda aja anawapereka mʼmanja mwa Yosefe, ndipo iye anawasamalira. Iwo anakhala mʼndendemo kwa kanthawi.
5 And they dreamed a dream they two, each man, his dream in one night, each man, according to the interpretation of his dream, —the butler and the baker who belonged to the king of Egypt, who were imprisoned in the prison.
Usiku wina, aliyense wa anthu awiriwa, wopereka zakumwa pamodzi ndi wopanga buledi wa ku nyumba ya mfumu ya ku Igupto aja, amene ankasungidwa mʼndende, analota maloto. Malotowo anali ndi tanthauzo lake.
6 And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, —and looked at them, and lo! they were sad.
Mmawa wake, Yosefe atabwera, anaona kuti nkhope zawo zinali zakugwa.
7 So he asked Pharaoh’s courtiers who were with him in the ward of his lord’s house, saying, Why are your faces troubled to-day!
Choncho anafunsa akuluakulu a kwa Farao amene anali naye mʼndende muja kuti, “Bwanji nkhope zanu zili zachisoni lero?”
8 And they said unto him, A dream, have we dreamed, but there is none, to interpret, it. Then said Joseph unto them—Is it not unto God, that interpretations belong? Relate it. I pray you, to me.
Iwo anayankha, “Tonse awiri talota maloto, koma palibe wotitanthauzira malotowo.” Pamenepo Yosefe anawawuza kuti, “Ndi Mulungu yekha amene amapereka matanthauzo a maloto. Uzeni ine maloto anu.”
9 And the chief of the butlers related his dream to Joseph, —and said to him, In my dream, then lo! a vine, before me;
Choncho mkulu wa operekera zakumwa uja anamuwuza Yosefe maloto ake. Anati, “Mʼmaloto anga ndinaona mtengo wa mpesa,
10 and, in the vine, three shoots, —and the same at sprouting time, had shot up her blossom, and her clusters had brought to perfection ripe grapes.
unali ndi nthambi zitatu. Mpesawo utangophukira, unachita maluwa ndipo maphava ake anabereka mphesa zakupsa.
11 Now, the cup of Pharaoh, being in my hand, I took the ripe grapes and pressed them out into the cup of Pharaoh, and set the cup upon Pharaoh’s palm.
Chikho cha Farao chinali mʼmanja mwanga, ndipo ndinatenga mphesa, kupsinyira mu chikho cha Farao ndi kuchipereka mʼmanja mwake.”
12 And Joseph said to him, This, is the interpretation thereof, —The three shoots are three days:
Yosefe anati kwa iye, “Tanthauzo lake ndi ili: Nthambi zitatuzo ndi masiku atatu.
13 In three days more, will Pharaoh lift up thy head, and restore thee to thine office, and thou shalt set the cup of Pharaoh in his hand, according to the former custom when thou wast his butler.
Pakangopita masiku atatu, Farao adzakutulutsa muno. Udzaperekera zakumwa kwa Farao monga momwe umachitira poyamba.
14 But if thou remember how I was with thee when it shall go well with thee, then wilt thou I pray thee do me a lovingkindness, —and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me forth out of this house;
Koma zako zikakuyendera bwino, udzandikumbukire ndi kundikomera mtima. Chonde ukandipepesere kwa Farao kuti anditulutse muno.
15 For I was, stolen, out of the land of the Hebrews, —and, even here, had I done nothing, that they should have put me in the dungeon,
Popezatu ine anangochita mondiba kubwera nane kuno kuchokera ku dziko la Ahebri, ndipo ngakhale kunoko, ine sindinalakwe kali konse kuti ndizipezeka mʼdzenje muno.”
16 Then the chief of the bakers, seeing that he had well interpreted, said unto Joseph, I, too, was in my dream, when lo! three wicker baskets of fine bread were on my head;
Mkulu wa opanga buledi ataona kuti Yosefe wapereka tanthauzo labwino, anati kwa Yosefe, “Inenso ndinalota nditasenza nsengwa zitatu za buledi.
17 and, in the uppermost basket, was some of every kind of food for Pharaoh that a baker could make, —but, the birds, kept eating them out of the basket from off my head.
Mu nsengwa yapamwamba munali zakudya zamitundumitundu za Farao, koma mbalame zimadya zakudyazo.”
18 And Joseph responded and said, This, is the interpretation thereof, The three baskets, are, three days:
Yosefe anati, “Tanthauzo lake ndi ili: nsengwa zitatuzo ndi masiku atatu.
19 In three days more, will Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and hang thee upon a tree, and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.
Pakangotha masiku atatu Farao adzakutulutsa muno koma adzakupachika. Ndipo mbalame zidzadya mnofu wako.”
20 And it came to pass on the third day the birthday of Pharaoh, that he made a banquet for all his servants, and uplifted the head of the chief of the butlers and the head of the chief of the bakers in the midst of his servants;
Tsono tsiku lachitatulo linali lokumbukira kubadwa kwa Farao, ndipo anawakonzera phwando akuluakulu ake onse. Anatulutsa mʼndende mkulu wa operekera zakumwa ndi mkulu wa ophika buledi, ndipo anawayimiritsa pamaso pa nduna zake.
21 and restored the chief of the butlers to his butlership, so that he set the cup upon the palm of Pharaoh;
Tsono Farao anamubwezera mkulu wa operekera zakumwa uja pa udindo wake, kotero kuti anayamba kuperekeranso zakumwa kwa Farao,
22 but, the chief of the bakers, he hanged, —as, Joseph, had interpreted unto them.
koma mkulu wa ophika buledi anamupachika, mofanana ndi mmene Yosefe anatanthauzira maloto.
23 Yet the chief of the butlers made no mention of Joseph but did forget him.
Koma mkulu wa operekera zakumwa uja sanamukumbukire Yosefe ndipo anamuyiwaliratu.
