< Genesis 41 >

1 Two complete years later, the king of Egypt had a dream. In the dream, he was standing alongside the Nile [River].
Hagi tare zagegafu agateretegeno Fero'a ava'na keana, Naeli timofo ankenare oti'negeno,
2 Suddenly seven healthy fat cows come up out of the river. They started eating the grass that was on the riverbank.
ame huno Naeli timpintira 7ni'a masavenke huno afovage Bulimakao afu'tamimo'za hanati'za, tinkenafinti traza tragahu'za nenazageno ke'ne.
3 Soon seven other cows, unhealthy-looking and thin, came up behind them from the Nile [River]. They stood alongside the fat cows that were on the riverbank.
Anante'ma keana, ete 7ni'a zaferinage huno, vahe'mo kesane huga osu'nea Bulimakao afuzaga Naeli timpinti ehanati'za, tinkenafi ko'ma emani'naza bulimakane magopi oti'za mani'naze.
4 Then the unhealthy thin cows ate the seven healthy fat cows. And then the king woke up.
Haviza hu'za zaferinage hu'naza Bulimakao afumo'za, 7ni'a knare'ma hu'za afovage'ma hu'naza Bulimakao afutamina zamahe'za nehana hu'naze. Anazama keteno'a Fero'a avu'ma mase'nefintira oti'ne.
5 The king went to sleep again, and he had another dream. This time he saw seven heads of grain that were full of kernels of grain and ripe, and all growing on one stalk.
Ete mago'ene Fero'a mase'neno ava'nama keana, mago witi ramparera ome ahente eme ahente huno 7ni'a ranra nenage huno knare hu'nea witi me'negeno ke'ne.
6 After that, the king saw that seven other heads of grain sprouted on that (OR, on another) stalk. They were thin and had been dried up by the hot east wind.
Hanki ete henkama hanatia 7ni'a witi raga'amo'a osi higeno, zage hanatitegati ea zaho'mo azeri hagege higeno, nena'a fore hu so'e osu'ne.
7 Then the thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven ripe full heads. Then the king woke up. He realized that he had been dreaming.
Hagi osi witi ragamo'za 7ni'a ranra witi raga rente'neana asgahu nevazizageno ke'ne. Fero'a otino keana higeno ava'na koe huno hu'ne.
8 But the next morning he was worried about the meaning of the dream. So he summoned all the magicians and wise men who lived in Egypt. He told them what he had dreamed, but none of them could tell him the meaning of the two dreams.
Hagi nanterame otino antahintahi hakare nehuno, vahe huzmantege'za kasnampa vahezagane antahi'zane vahezagama Isipima nemaniza vahe ome zamasamige'za eme atru hu'naze. Fero'a ava'na ke'ama zamasmiana mago'mo'a eriama huno Ferona asamigara osu'ne.
9 Then the chief drink-server said to the king, “Now I remember something that I should have told you! I made a mistake by forgetting to tell it to you.
Hagi anante vugota huno Fero kapure kva hunentea ne'mo'a amanage huno Ferona asami'ne, Ko'ma nagrama ufre'noa knazamofo nanekea meni huama hu'na kasamigahue.
10 One time you were angry with two of us. So you put me and the chief baker in the prison in the house of the captain of the palace guards.
Feroga eri'za vahe ka'a karimpa aherantenka, kavate kva ne'mofo nompi, nagri'ene vugota huno breti negrea ne'ene kina hurante'nane.
11 While we were there, one night each of us had a dream, and the dreams had different meanings.
Magoke kerageke tarega'mota ava'na ke'noe. Agrane nagra'ene, ava'na ti'afina taregamota rurerure av'ana ke'noankino, agu'agesa'a metere hu'ne.
12 There was a young Hebrew man there with us. He was a servant of the captain of the palace guards. We told him what we had dreamed, and he told us what our dreams meant. He told each of us the meaning of our dreams.
Hibru nehazana magora anampina tagra'enena mani'neankino, kinimofo avate'ma kvama nehaza sondia vahe'mokizmi kva ne'mofo eri'za ne'mo kina hu'neno, ava'na keti'a agri asamukeno huama huno ana avana ketiamofo agu'agesa'a tasami'ne.
13 And what happened was exactly the same as the meanings that he told us: You said I could have my previous job again, but the other man was killed by being hanged. [The Hebrew man’s name was Joseph].”
Hagi huama'ma huno tasmi'nea kante anteno nagrira ete eri'zaniafi navrenenteno, agrira zafare aheno hanti'ne.
14 When the king heard that, he told some servants to bring Joseph to him, and they quickly brought Joseph out of the prison. Joseph shaved and put on better clothes, and then he went and stood in front of the king.
Hagi Fero'a huzmantege'za Josefena mopa agu'a kina nompi mani'nege'za ame hu'za ome avre'za ageno, agi azoka hareno kena'a eri vasiteno, Fero avuga uhanati'ne.
15 The king said to Joseph, “I had two dreams, and no one can tell me what they mean. But someone told me that when you hear someone tell about a dream he has had, you can tell that person what the dream means.”
Fero'a amanage huno Josefena asami'ne, Nagrama ke'noa ava'namofo agafa'a, magore huno eriama huno nasmiga vahera omanitfa hu'ne. Hagi kagri kagenke nasami'za, ava'na kea eriama nehane hu'za hu'naze.
16 But Joseph replied to the king, “No, I cannot do that. It is God who knows the meaning of dreams, but he will enable me to tell you their meaning, and they will mean something good.”
Higeno Josefe'a anage huno Ferona asami'ne, Nagra'a huamara osugahuanki, Anumzamo agrake Feroga ana avana keka'amofo agu'agesa'a eri ama huno kasamigahie.
17 The king said to Joseph, “In my first dream I was standing on the bank of the Nile [River].
Nehigeno Fero'a anage huno Josefena asami'ne, Ava'nama ke'nofina, Naeli timofo ankenare,
18 Suddenly seven healthy fat cows came up out of the river, and they started eating the grass that was on the riverbank.
oti'nena negogeno, masavenke huno ra avufgane bulimakaona 7ni'a Naeli timpinti hanati'za traza nenazage'na ke'noe.
19 Soon seven other cows, ugly and thin ones, came up behind them from the river. I never saw such ugly cows in all the land of Egypt!
Negogeno ana timpinti mago'ene 7ni'a zaferinage huno kesane osuga hu'nea bulimakao afutamina, magore hu'na Isipi mopafina kora onke'noa afuzaga ke'noe.
20 The thin ugly cows ate the seven fat cows that came up first.
Ana zaferinage huno asane huga osu'nea bulimakao afu'zagamo'za koteno'ma 7ni'a masavenke avufgane bulimakao afu'tmina zamahe'za ne'naze.
21 But afterwards, no one would have known that the thin cows ate them, because they were just as ugly as they were before. Then I woke up.
Hianagi ana afu'zagamo'za kote'za mani'naza kanteke vahe'mofo asane osu'are mani'nazage'na nege'na, navu'ma mase'nofintira oti'noe.
22 Then I had another dream. I saw seven heads of grain. They were full of kernels of grain and ripe, and they were all growing on one stalk.
Hagi ete mago'ane mase'nena mago ava'na koana, mago witimofo rampa'arera, 7ni'a ranra nena raga'a ome ahente eme ahente hu'negena,
23 Then [to my surprise] I saw seven other heads of grain that sprouted. They were thin and had been dried up by the hot east wind.
negogeno henka ete 7ni'a osasi rampa'ane witi hanatiana hagege hugege higeno, zage hanatitegati ea amuho'ane zaho'mo temagigeno hanati haviza hu'ne.
24 The thin heads of grain swallowed the seven good heads. I told these dreams to the magicians, but none of them could explain to me what they meant.”
Ana osi rampane witimo 7ni'a ranra rampamo nenage huno ahente'nea witi rampa'a, aga asgahu nakri'ne. Hige'na ana ava'nagea kasnampa vahe'zaga zamasmuanagi mago'mo'a huama huno onasmi'ne.
25 Then Joseph said to the king, “Both your dreams have the same meaning. God is revealing to you in your dreams what he is about to do.
Josefe'a amanage huno Ferona asami'ne, Feroga tare ava'nama ke'nana zamo'a magoke kampi vu'ne, Anumzamo hania zamofo eri ama huno Agra'a Feroga eri kaveri hu'ne.
26 The seven healthy cows represent seven years. The seven good heads of grain also represent seven years. The two dreams both have the same meaning.
Hagi 7ni'a knare zamavufagane bulimakamo'za 7ni'a kafu hu avame hu'naze. Hanki 7 ni'a nena'ane witi rampamo'za 7ni'a kafu hu avame hu'nazankino, ana tarega ava'na kenamo'a magoke agu'agesage me'ne.
27 The seven thin ugly cows that came up behind them and the seven worthless heads of grain that were dried up by the hot east wind each represent seven years (of famine/when food will be very scarce).
Hagi 7ni'a knare osu zaferinage Bulimakaomozama marerinagenka ke'nanana, 7ni'a kafue. Hanki 7ni'a osasi huno hagege hu'nea witi ramparamima zage hanatitegati amuhonentake zaho'moma eme temagigenka ke'nanana, e'i 7ni'a kafufina tusi'a agatonto kna fore hugahie.
28 It will happen just as I have told you, because God has revealed to you what he is about to do.
Maka'zana meni fore hania zamofonku nagra huama huna Feroga negasamuankino, ama anazana fore'ma hania zamofo Anumzamo'a Agra'a eri ama huno Feroga kaveri hu'ne.
29 There will be seven years in which there will be plenty of food throughout the land of Egypt,
Hagi 7ni'a kafumofo agu'afina, maka Isipi mopafina, ne'zamo'a fore huhakare hugahie.
30 but after that there will be seven years (of famine/when food will be very scarce). Then people will forget all the years when there was plenty of food, because the famine that will come afterward will ruin the country.
Hianagi 7ni'a kafumofo agu'afina tusi'a agatonto kna egahiankino, ana agatonto zamo'a Isipi mopafina kave'ma fore'ma hu'nea kna osanige'za, rama'a ne'zama fore'ma hu'nea kafuraminkura vahe'mo'za zamage kanigahaze. Hagi miko'zana ahe fanane hanigeno, mopamo'a haviza hugahie.
31 The people will forget how plentiful food was previously, because the famine will be very terrible.
Ana mopafina kave'ma fore nehiaza osuno, agatereno tusi'a agate'za fore hanige'za, ko'ma knare kafuma mani'naza zankura zamagesa ontahigahaze.
32 The reason God gave to you two dreams is that he [wants you to know] that this will happen, and he will cause it to happen very soon.
Ete mago'ene Anumzamo'ma ana ava'na ke Ferogama tare zupa kasmi'neana amanahu hu'ne, Anumzamo hanigeno ame huno anazana fore hugahie.
33 “Now I suggest that you should choose a man who is wise and can make good decisions. I suggest that you appoint him to direct the affairs of the whole country.
Hanki Feroga mago knare antahi'zane, agu'agesane ne' azeri otigeno Isipi mopa kegava hino.
34 You should also appoint supervisors over the country, in order that they can arrange to collect one-fifth of all the grain that is harvested during the seven years when food is plentiful.
Feroga mago'a vahe zamazeri otige'za, 7ni'a kafufina kegava hu'ne'za, ne'zamo'ma hakare hania knafina ne'zana eri'za 5fu'a kevu ante'ne'za anampinti mago kevua refko hu'za Isipi mopafina mago'zahu hu'za ne'zana eritru hiho.
35 They should collect this amount of grain during those seven years that are coming, when there will be plenty of food. You should supervise them as they store it in the cities.
Ne'zamo'ma hakare hania kafufina huge'za, maka'a ne'zana nompi eri tru hiho. Ferogama kegava hu'nana ranra kumate witi ragane ne'zanena eritru hute'za, vahe'mo'za kegava hiho.
36 This grain should be stored so that it can be eaten during the seven years when there will be a famine here in Egypt, so that the people in this country will not die from hunger.”
Isipi mopafina 7ni'a kafufima agatontoma fore'ma hania kna'afina, e'i anama eritru hania nezamo zamaza hanige'za, zamagakura hu'za ama ana mopafina ofrigahaze.
37 The king and his officials thought that this would be a good plan.
Hanki Fero'ene eri'za vahe'amozama ana nanekema antahi'zana knare hu'ne.
38 So the king said to them, “(Can we find any other man like Joseph, a man to whom God has given his Spirit?/It is not likely that we will find another man like this man, one to whom God has given his Spirit!)” [RHQ]
Fero'a eri'za naga'a zamasmino, Amanahukna huno, Anumzamofo Avamu'ene nera magora hakreta kegahuno?
39 Then the king said to Joseph, “Because God has revealed all this to you, it seems to me that there is no one who is as wise as you and who can decide wisely about things.
Anante Fero'a anage huno Josefena asmi'ne, Anumzamo ana maka'zana kagri kasmi'negu, magora knare antahi'zane vahera omani'naze.
40 So I will put you in charge of everything in my palace. All the people here in Egypt must obey what you command. Only because I am king [MTY] will I have more authority than you.”
Kagra nagri nona kegava hunenankena, ran tratera nagrake'za manisga hugantegahuanki, kema hanana kante vahenimo'za antahi kami'za kesga hugantegahaze.
41 Then the king said to Joseph, “I am now putting you in charge of the whole country of Egypt.”
Anage huteno Fero'a mago'ane anage huno Josefena asami'ne, Nagra mika Isipi mopa kegava huogu kva kazeri otue.
42 The king took from his finger the ring that had his seal on it, and he put it on Joseph’s finger. He put robes made of fine linen on him, and he put a gold chain around his neck.
Anage nehuno Fero'a azampinti agra'a rinia zafino Josefe azampi vazinenteno, knare kasefa kena eri vasinenteno, anankempi golire ananke nofi hunte'ne.
43 Then he arranged for Joseph to ride around in the chariot [that showed that he was] the second-most important man in the country. When Joseph rode in the chariot, men shouted to the people who were on the road in front of him, “Get off the road!” So the king put Joseph in charge of everything in the country.
Fero amagenare kva ne'mofo karisifi avrentegeno vano nehige'za, agri avufi kezati'za husga hunente'za, agrite zamarena re'naze! Nehuno maka Isipi mopa agri kvafi ante'ne.
44 The king said to Joseph, “I am the king, but no one in the whole land of Egypt will do anything [IDM] if you do not permit them to do it.”
Mago'ene, Fero'a Josefena anage huno asmi'ne, Nagra Fero'na huankino kagripinti'ma kema e'orinesuno'a, mago'mo'e huno azana erisga huno mago'zana huge, maka Isipi mopafina aga rentegera osugahie.
45 The king gave Joseph a new name, Zaphenath-Paneah. He also gave him Asenath to be his wife. She was the daughter of Potiphera, who was a priest in a temple in On [city]. Then Joseph became known (OR, traveled) through all the land of Egypt.
Nehuno Josefenkura Zafenat-panea'e huno Fero'a agi'a antemine. Ana nehuno Oni kumate pristi ne' Potifera mofa Asenati ara avremine. Higeno Josefe'a agra Isipi mopa agu'afi vano nehige'za ke'naze.
46 Joseph was 30 years old when he started to work for the king of Egypt. To do his work, he left the king’s palace and traveled throughout Egypt.
Hagi Josefe'a 30'a Zagegafu huteno, Isipi kini ne' Ferontera eri'zana eri'ne. Ana huteno Josefe'a Fero enema mani'neretira atreno maka Isipi mopafina vano hu'ne.
47 During the next seven years, the land produced abundant crops, so there was plenty of food.
Hagi 7ni'a zagegafumofo agu'afina ne'zamo'a ana mopafina ampore'ne.
48 As Joseph supervised them, his helpers collected one-fifth of all the grain that was produced during those years, and stored it in the cities. In each city, he had his helpers store up the grain that was grown in the fields that surrounded that city.
Hutegeno maka ne'zama 7ni'a kafufi Isipi mopafi fore'ma hiana eritru huno ranra kumapima me'nea nontamimpi ante'ne. Maka'a hozafinti ne'zama eri'za e'nazana, mago mago kumate'ma me'nea nompi eri atru hutere hu'ne.
49 Joseph had them store up a huge amount of grain. It looked as plentiful as the sand on the seashore. There was so much grain that after a while they stopped keeping records of how much grain was stored, because there was more grain than they could measure.
Ana nehuno Josefe'a witi rgama eritru hu'neana, hagerinkenafi kasepankna huno zogi atru higeno, mago'ene sigerirera erinte'za hantigara osu'naze. Na'ankure nompina aviteno herafi ramigeno anara hu'ne.
50 Before the seven years of famine started, Joseph’s wife Asenath gave birth to two sons.
Agate kna fore osu'negeno, tare ne'mofavre Josefena fore humi'ne. Oni kumate pristi ne' Potifera mofa Asenati ana mofavrerarena kase ami'ne.
51 Joseph named the first one Manasseh, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘forget]’, because, he said, “God has caused me to forget all my troubles and all my father’s family.”
Hagi Josefe'a zage ne'mofavre'amofo agi'a, Manase'e huno antenemino anage hu'ne, na'ankure knazama eri'noane, nenfa nonku'enena Anumzamo'a eri nagekani nante'ne.
52 He named his second son Ephraim, [which means ‘to have children]’, because, he said, “God has given me children here in this land where I have suffered.”
Anantera mago ne'mofavre nenteno agi'a, Efraemi'e huno antenemino anage hu'ne, natazampi mani'noa mopafi Anumzamo nazeri raga renante'ne.
53 Finally the seven years in which there was plenty of food ended.
Hagi 7ni'a kafumofo agu'afi Isipi mopafima ne'zamo'ma ampomare'nereti vagaregeno,
54 Then the seven years of famine started, just as Joseph had predicted. There was also a famine in all the other nearby lands, but although the crops did not grow, there was food everywhere in Egypt, because of the grain they had stored up in the cities.
Josefe'ma ke hu'nere, 7ni'a kafumofo agu'afina agate kna egeno miko'a mopa kaziga aga'zanku huva re'neanagi, Isipi mopamofo agu'afina ne'zana me'ne.
55 When all the people of [MTY] Egypt had eaten all of their own food and were still hungry, they begged the king for food. So the king told all the people of Egypt, “Go to Joseph, and do what he tells you to do.”
Tusi zamagazanku maka Isipi mopafina nehu'za, Ferontega nezanku zavike hazageno, Fero'a maka Isipi vahera zamasmino, Josefente vinkeno'ma na'ane nanekema tmasmisiana kema haniaza hiho.
56 When the famine was very bad throughout the whole country, Joseph ordered his helpers to open the storehouses. Then they sold the grain in the storehouses to the people of Egypt, because the famine was very severe all over Egypt.
Maka kaziga mopa kagi'afina zamagaku hazageno, Josefe'a mika feno nona anagige'za Isipi vahe'mo'za anampinti ne'zana miza se'naze. Ana nehigeno tusi'a agate'zamo miko Isipi mopafina fore hu'ne.
57 And people from many [HYP] nearby countries came to Egypt to buy grain from Joseph, because the famine was very severe everywhere [HYP].
Zamagazamo maka kaziga mopafina hige'ze maka kaziga mopareti vahe'mo'za, Isipiti witi ne'zazmia Josefenteti eme miza hu'naze.
