Genesis 40
1 It came about that after these things, the cupbearer of the king of Egypt and king's baker offended their master, the king of Egypt.
his ita gestis accidit ut peccarent duo eunuchi pincerna regis Aegypti et pistor domino suo
2 Pharaoh was angry with his two officials, the chief of the cupbearers and the chief of the bakers.
iratusque Pharao contra eos nam alter pincernis praeerat alter pistoribus
3 He put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the same prison where Joseph was confined.
misit eos in carcerem principis militum in quo erat vinctus et Ioseph
4 The captain of the guard assigned Joseph to them, and he served them. They remained in custody for some time.
at custos carceris tradidit eos Ioseph qui et ministrabat eis aliquantum temporis fluxerat et illi in custodia tenebantur
5 Both of them dreamed a dream—the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt who were confined in the prison—each man had his own dream in the same night, and each dream had its own interpretation.
videruntque ambo somnium nocte una iuxta interpretationem congruam sibi
6 Joseph came to them in the morning and saw them. Behold, they were sad.
ad quos cum introisset Ioseph mane et vidisset eos tristes
7 He asked Pharaoh's officials who were with him in custody in his master's house, saying, “Why do you look so sad today?”
sciscitatus est dicens cur tristior est hodie solito facies vestra
8 They said to him, “We have both dreamed a dream and no one can interpret it.” Joseph said to them, “Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell me, please.”
qui responderunt somnium vidimus et non est qui interpretetur nobis dixitque ad eos Ioseph numquid non Dei est interpretatio referte mihi quid videritis
9 The chief of the cupbearers told his dream to Joseph. He said to him, “In my dream, behold, a vine was in front of me.
narravit prior praepositus pincernarum somnium videbam coram me vitem
10 In the vine were three branches. As it budded, its blossoms came out and the clusters of grapes ripened.
in qua erant tres propagines crescere paulatim gemmas et post flores uvas maturescere
11 Pharaoh's cup was in my hand. I took the grapes and squeezed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I placed the cup into Pharaoh's hand.”
calicemque Pharaonis in manu mea tuli ergo uvas et expressi in calicem quem tenebam et tradidi poculum Pharaoni
12 Joseph said to him, “This is the interpretation of it. The three branches are three days.
respondit Ioseph haec est interpretatio somnii tres propagines tres adhuc dies sunt
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, just as when you were his cupbearer.
post quos recordabitur Pharao magisterii tui et restituet te in gradum pristinum dabisque ei calicem iuxta officium tuum sicut facere ante consueveras
14 But think of me when it goes well with you, and please show kindness to me. Mention me to Pharaoh and bring me out of this prison.
tantum memento mei cum tibi bene fuerit et facies mecum misericordiam ut suggeras Pharaoni et educat me de isto carcere
15 For indeed I was abducted out of the land of the Hebrews. Here also have I done nothing that they should put me in this dungeon.”
quia furto sublatus sum de terra Hebraeorum et hic innocens in lacum missus sum
16 When the chief of the bakers saw that the interpretation was favorable, he said to Joseph, “I also had a dream, and, behold, three baskets of bread were on my head.
videns pistorum magister quod prudenter somnium dissolvisset ait et ego vidi somnium quod haberem tria canistra farinae super caput meum
17 In the top basket there were all kinds of baked goods for Pharaoh, but the birds ate them out of the basket on my head.”
et in uno canistro quod erat excelsius portare me omnes cibos qui fiunt arte pistoria avesque comedere ex eo
18 Joseph answered and said, “This is the interpretation. The three baskets are three days.
respondit Ioseph haec est interpretatio somnii tria canistra tres adhuc dies sunt
19 Within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head from you and will hang you on a tree. The birds will eat your flesh off you.”
post quos auferet Pharao caput tuum ac suspendet te in cruce et lacerabunt volucres carnes tuas
20 It came about on the third day that it was Pharaoh's birthday. He made a feast for all his servants. He lifted up the head of the chief of the cupbearers and the head of the chief of the bakers, among his servants.
exin dies tertius natalicius Pharaonis erat qui faciens grande convivium pueris suis recordatus est inter epulas magistri pincernarum et pistorum principis
21 He restored the chief of the cupbearers to his responsibility, and he put the cup into Pharaoh's hand again.
restituitque alterum in locum suum ut porrigeret regi poculum
22 But he hanged the chief of the bakers, just as Joseph had interpreted to them.
alterum suspendit in patibulo ut coniectoris veritas probaretur
23 Yet the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot about him.
et tamen succedentibus prosperis praepositus pincernarum oblitus est interpretis sui
