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.
| مدتی پس از زندانی شدن یوسف، رئیس ساقیان و رئیس نانوایان فرعون به سَروَر خود، پادشاه مصر، خیانت ورزیدند. |
2 Then fell the wroth of Pharaoh upon his two courtiers, upon the chief of the butlers, and upon the chief of the bakers;
| فرعون بر این دو خدمتگزار خود خشمگین شده، |
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.
| آنها را به زندان رئیس نگهبانان دربار که یوسف در آنجا بود، انداخت. |
4 And the chief of the royal executioners charged Joseph with them and he waited upon them, and they were some days in ward.
| آنها مدت طولانی در زندان ماندند و رئیس نگهبانان یوسف را به خدمت آنها گماشت. |
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.
| یک شب هر دو آنها خواب دیدند. |
6 And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, —and looked at them, and lo! they were sad.
| صبح روز بعد، یوسف دید که آنها ناراحت هستند. |
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!
| پس، از آنها که همراه او در زندان سَروَرش بودند، پرسید: «چرا امروز غمگین هستید؟» |
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.
| گفتند: «دیشب ما هر دو خواب دیدیم و کسی نیست که آن را تعبیر کند.» یوسف گفت: «تعبیر کردن خوابها کار خداست. به من بگویید چه خوابهایی دیده‌اید؟» |
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;
| اول رئیس ساقیان خوابی را که دیده بود، برای یوسف تعریف کرد: «دیشب در خواب درخت انگوری را دیدم که سه شاخه داشت. ناگاه شاخه‌ها شکفتند و خوشه‌های زیادی انگور رسیده دادند. |
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.
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.
| من جام شراب فرعون را در دست داشتم، پس خوشه‌های انگور را چیده، در جام فشردم و به او دادم تا بنوشد.» |
12 And Joseph said to him, This, is the interpretation thereof, —The three shoots are three days:
| یوسف گفت: «تعبیر خواب تو این است: منظور از سه شاخه، سه روز است. |
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.
| تا سه روز دیگر فرعون تو را از زندان آزاد کرده، دوباره ساقی خود خواهد ساخت. |
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;
| پس خواهش می‌کنم وقتی دوباره مورد لطف او قرار گرفتی، مرا به یاد آور و سرگذشتم را برای فرعون شرح بده و از او خواهش کن تا مرا از این زندان آزاد کند. |
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,
| زیرا مرا که عبرانی هستم از وطنم دزدیده، به اینجا آورده‌اند. حالا هم بدون آنکه مرتکب جرمی شده باشم، مرا در زندان انداخته‌اند.» |
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;
| وقتی رئیس نانوایان دید که تعبیر خواب دوستش خیر بود، او نیز خواب خود را برای یوسف بیان کرده، گفت: «در خواب دیدم که سه سبد پر از نان روی سر خود دارم. |
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.
| در سبد بالایی چندین نوع نان برای فرعون گذاشته بودم، اما پرندگان آمده آنها را خوردند.» |
18 And Joseph responded and said, This, is the interpretation thereof, The three baskets, are, three days:
| یوسف به او گفت: «تعبیر خواب این است: سه سبد، سه روز است. |
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.
| سه روز دیگر فرعون سرت را از تنت جدا کرده، بدنت را به دار می‌آویزد و پرندگان آمده گوشت بدنت را خواهند خورد.» |
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;
| سه روز بعد، جشن تولد فرعون بود و به همین مناسبت ضیافتی برای مقامات مملکتی ترتیب داد. او فرستاد تا رئیس ساقیان و رئیس نانوایان را از زندان به حضورش آورند. |
21 and restored the chief of the butlers to his butlership, so that he set the cup upon the palm of Pharaoh;
| سپس رئیس ساقیان را به کار سابقش گمارد، |
22 but, the chief of the bakers, he hanged, —as, Joseph, had interpreted unto them.
| ولی رئیس نانوایان را به دار آویخت، همان‌طور که یوسف گفته بود. |
23 Yet the chief of the butlers made no mention of Joseph but did forget him.
| اما رئیس ساقیان یوسف را به یاد نیاورد. |
