Genesis 40
1 Some time later, two of the king of Egypt’s officials did things that displeased him. One was his chief (drink-server/man who prepared the wine and served it to the king), and the other was his chief (baker/man who baked bread for the king).
Bir süre sonra Mısır Kralı'nın sakisiyle fırıncısı efendilerini gücendirdiler.
2 The king became angry with both of them.
Firavun bu iki görevlisine, baş sakiyle fırıncıbaşına öfkelendi.
3 So he had them put in prison, in the house of the captain of the palace guards. That was the place where Joseph was being kept.
Onları muhafız birliği komutanının evinde, Yusuf'un tutsak olduğu zindanda göz altına aldı.
4 The two men were in prison for a long time. And during that time the captain of the palace guards appointed Joseph to be their servant, to take care of their needs.
Muhafız birliği komutanı Yusuf'u onların hizmetine atadı. Bir süre zindanda kaldılar.
5 One night while the king’s drink-server and his baker were there in the prison, each of them had a dream. Each dream had a different meaning.
Firavunun sakisiyle fırıncısı tutsak oldukları zindanda aynı gece birer düş gördüler. Düşleri farklı anlamlar taşıyordu.
6 The next morning, when Joseph came to them, he saw that both of them were dejected/worried.
Sabah Yusuf yanlarına gittiğinde, onları tedirgin gördü.
7 So he asked them, “Why do you look so sad today?”
Efendisinin evinde, kendisiyle birlikte zindanda kalan firavunun görevlilerine, “Niçin suratınız asık bugün?” diye sordu.
8 One of them answered, “We both had dreams last night, but there is no one who can tell us the meaning of the dreams.” Joseph said to them, “God is the only one who can [RHQ] tell the meaning of dreams. So tell me what you dreamed, and God will tell me the meaning.”
“Düş gördük ama yorumlayacak kimse yok” dediler. Yusuf, “Yorum Tanrı'ya özgü değil mi?” dedi, “Lütfen düşünüzü bana anlatın.”
9 So the king’s chief drink-server told his dream to Joseph. He said, “In my dream I saw a grapevine in front of me.
Baş saki düşünü Yusuf'a anlattı: “Düşümde önümde bir asma gördüm.
10 On the vine there were three branches. After the branches budded, they blossomed, and then they produced clusters of grapes.
Üç çubuğu vardı. Tomurcuklar açar açmaz çiçeklendi, salkım salkım üzüm verdi.
11 I was holding the king’s cup, so I took the grapes and squeezed the juice into the cup. Then I gave the cup to the king to drink the juice.”
Firavunun kâsesi elimdeydi. Üzümleri alıp firavunun kâsesine sıktım. Sonra kâseyi ona verdim.”
12 [God immediately told Joseph what the dream meant]. So Joseph said to him, “This is the meaning of your dream: The three branches of the vine represent three days.
Yusuf, “Bu şu anlama gelir” dedi, “Üç çubuk üç gün demektir.
13 Within three days the king will release you from prison. He will let you do the work that you did before. You will take cups of wine to the king as you did before, when you were his drink-server.
Üç gün içinde firavun seni zindandan çıkaracak, yine eski görevine döneceksin. Geçmişte olduğu gibi yine ona sakilik yapacaksın.
14 But when you are out of prison and everything goes well for you, please do not forget me.
Ama her şey yolunda giderse, lütfen beni anımsa. Bir iyilik yap, firavuna benden söz et. Çıkar beni bu zindandan.
15 People took me away forcefully from the land where my fellow Hebrews live. [I did nothing wrong there], and also while I have been here in Egypt, I have done nothing for which I deserved to be put in prison. So be kind to me and tell the king about me, so that he will release me from this prison!”
Çünkü ben İbrani ülkesinden zorla kaçırıldım. Burada da zindana atılacak bir şey yapmadım.”
16 When the chief baker heard that the meaning of the dream of the king’s drink-server was very favorable, he said to Joseph, “I also had a dream. In the dream I was surprised to see three baskets of bread stacked on my head.
Fırıncıbaşı bu iyi yorumu duyunca, Yusuf'a, “Ben de bir düş gördüm” dedi, “Başımın üstünde üç sepet beyaz ekmek vardı.
17 In the top basket there were many kinds of baked goods for the king, but birds were eating them from the top basket that was on my head!”
En üstteki sepette firavun için pişirilmiş çeşitli pastalar vardı. Kuşlar başımın üstündeki sepetten pastaları yiyorlardı.”
18 God again told Joseph what the dream meant, so he said, “The three baskets also represent three days.
Yusuf, “Bu şu anlama gelir” dedi, “Üç sepet üç gün demektir.
19 Within three days the king will command that your head be cut off. Then your body will be hung on a tree, and vultures will come and eat your flesh.”
Üç gün içinde firavun seni zindandan çıkarıp ağaca asacak. Kuşlar etini yiyecekler.”
20 The third day after that was the (king’s birthday/day they celebrated when the king became one year older). On that day the king invited all his officials to celebrate his birthday. During the celebration, while they were all gathered there, the king summoned his chief drink-server and chief baker from the prison.
Üç gün sonra, firavun doğum gününde bütün görevlilerine bir şölen verdi. Görevlilerinin önünde baş sakisiyle fırıncıbaşını zindandan çıkardı.
21 He said that his chief drink-server could have his previous job again, so that again he took cups of wine to the king.
Yusuf'un yaptığı yoruma uygun olarak baş sakisini eski görevine atadı. Baş saki firavuna şarap sunmaya başladı. Ama firavun fırıncıbaşını astırdı.
22 But he commanded that the chief baker should be killed by being hanged, just as Joseph had said would happen when he told the two men the meaning of their dreams.
23 But the chief drink-server did not think about Joseph. He forgot to do what Joseph asked him to do.
Gelgelelim, baş saki Yusuf'u anımsamadı, unuttu gitti.
