Genesis 41
1 At the end of two full years, Pharaoh dreamt, and behold, he stood by the river.
Kum hni touh a loum hnukkhu, Faro ni mang a sak teh, thaihaw, palang rai vah a kangdue.
2 Behold, seven cattle came up out of the river. They were sleek and fat, and they fed in the marsh grass.
A meikahawi ni teh kathâw e maitomanu hah tui thung hoi a tâco teh pho um vah apa.
3 Behold, seven other cattle came up after them out of the river, ugly and thin, and stood by the other cattle on the brink of the river.
Hahoi khenhaw! maitomanu sari touh, a meikahawi hoeh ni teh kamsoe e hah tui thung hoi a tâco van teh palang rai vah kangdout e maitomanu teng vah a kangdue.
4 The ugly and thin cattle ate up the seven sleek and fat cattle. So Pharaoh awoke.
Maitomanunaw a meikahawihoeh ni teh kamsoe e naw ni a meikahawi ni teh kathâw e naw hah koung a ca awh. Hahoi teh Faro teh vak a kâhlaw.
5 He slept and dreamt a second time; and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, healthy and good.
Hahoi bout a i teh mang bout a sak. Khenhaw! cakung buet touh dawk kahawi ni teh kalen e cavui sari touh a tâco.
6 Behold, seven heads of grain, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
Hahoi khenhaw! kathoengca ni teh Kanîtholae kahlî ni remke lah a hmang e cavui sari touh bout a tâco.
7 The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy and full ears. Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.
Cavui kathoengcae sari touh ni, cavui kalen ni teh kahawi e sari touh hah koung a payawp awh. Faro vak a kâhlaw teh khenhaw! mang lah ao.
8 In the morning, his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all of Egypt’s magicians and wise men. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh.
A tangtho torei, a muitha a lungpuen teh tami a patoun. Izip ram e mitpaleikathoumnaw hoi tami lungang pueng a kaw teh Faro ni a mang hah a dei pouh. Hahoi Faro hanelah ka deicai thai e buet touh boehai awm hoeh.
9 Then the chief cup bearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, “I remember my faults today.
Hatnavah misurtui kapoenaw kaukkung ni Faro koevah, sahnin ka yonnae ka kâpanue.
10 Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, with the chief baker.
A sannaw koevah, Faro a lungkhuek teh karingkungnaw kaukkung im vah kai hoi vaiyei kasakkungnaw kaukkung thongim ka bo roi navah,
11 We dreamt a dream in one night, he and I. Each man dreamt according to the interpretation of his dream.
mang reirei ka sak roi. Kaimouh roi e mang hah deingainae kâvan hoeh e doeh.
12 There was with us there a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard, and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams. He interpreted to each man according to his dream.
Hawvah kaimouh karingkung e san Hebru tami buet touh ao teh mang hah ka dei pouh roi. Ahni ni mang heh a deicai teh ka mang roi e patetlah a deicai van.
13 As he interpreted to us, so it was. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him.”
A deicai e patetlah mang teh reirei a tâco van. Kai teh thaw bout tawk sak lah ka o teh, ahni teh kai thi sak e lah ao telah ati.
14 Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. He shaved himself, changed his clothing, and came in to Pharaoh.
Hat toteh, Faro ni Joseph hah tang a kaw sak. Ka rang poung lah thongim thung a thung patuen dawk e a rasa awh teh, a pâkhamuen a ngaw hnukkhu a khohna a kâthung teh Faro koe a kâen.
15 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have dreamt a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. I have heard it said of you, that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”
Faro ni Joseph koe mang ka sak teh ka deicaikung apihai awm hoeh. Hatei nang ni mang heh na thaipanuek teh, na deicai thai telah ayânaw ni dei e hah ka thai telah ati.
16 Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, “It isn’t in me. God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.”
Joseph ni Faro koe hot teh kai koe awm hoeh. Cathut ni Faro koe roumnae lahoi a deicai han doeh telah ati.
17 Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, “In my dream, behold, I stood on the brink of the river;
Faro ni Joseph koe ka mang lavah khenhaw! palang rai ka kangdue.
18 and behold, seven fat and sleek cattle came up out of the river. They fed in the marsh grass;
Hahoi khenhaw! maitomanu a meikahawi ni teh kathâw e sari touh tuithung hoi a tâco teh pho um vah a pâ.
19 and behold, seven other cattle came up after them, poor and very ugly and thin, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for ugliness.
Hahoi alouke maitomanu a meikamathout niteh, ka kamsoe e hot patet e meimathout teh Izip ram pueng dawk patenghai ka hmu boihoeh e hah a tâco.
20 The thin and ugly cattle ate up the first seven fat cattle;
Hahoi a mei kathout ni teh ka kamsoe e maitomanunaw ni kathâw e maitomanunaw hah koung a ca awh.
21 and when they had eaten them up, it couldn’t be known that they had eaten them, but they were still ugly, as at the beginning. So I awoke.
Koung a ca awh hnukkhu patenghai yah apinihai a ca awh tie panuek kalawn hoeh. A ca awh hoehnahlan e patetlah a mei a mathoe awh mingming, hahoi vak ka kâhlaw.
22 I saw in my dream, and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, full and good;
Hahoi ka mang lavah khenhaw! Cakung buet touh dawkvah, cavui kahawipoung e sari touh a tâco.
23 and behold, seven heads of grain, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
Hahoi khenhaw! cavui sari touh kamyai ni teh kathoengcae, Kanîtholae kahlî ni remke lah a hmang e a tâco e hah bout ka hmu.
24 The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads of grain. I told it to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me.”
Cavui kathoutnaw ni cavui kahawinaw sari touh hah koung a ca awh. Hote mang hah mitpaleikathoumnaw ka dei pouh ei, apinihai deicai thai awh hoeh, telah a dei.
25 Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God is about to do he has declared to Pharaoh.
Joseph ni Faro koe Faro nange mang heh buet touh doeh. Cathut ni a sak hane hah Faro koe na panue sak e doeh.
26 The seven good cattle are seven years; and the seven good heads of grain are seven years. The dream is one.
Meikahawi e maitomanu sari touh teh kum sari touh doeh. Kahawi e cavui sari touh hai kum sari touh doeh. Mang teh buet touh doeh.
27 The seven thin and ugly cattle that came up after them are seven years, and also the seven empty heads of grain blasted with the east wind; they will be seven years of famine.
Hahoi a hnukkhu vah ka tâcawt e a mei kathout ni teh ka kamsoe e maitomanu sari touh hai kum sari touh doeh. Cavui sari touh Kanîtholae kahlî ni remke lah a hmang e hai kum sari touh doeh.
28 That is the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh. God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do.
Hetheh, Faro koe ka dei e Cathut ni a sak hane Faro a panue sak e doeh.
29 Behold, seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt are coming.
Izip ram vah khobunae kum sari touh ao han.
30 Seven years of famine will arise after them, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land,
Hatei, hat hnukkhu takangnae kum sari touh bout ao han. Hottelah takang ni ram teh voutthoup lah ao sak han dawkvah, khobunae kum pueng hah Izip ram teh pahnim e lah ao han.
31 and the plenty will not be known in the land by reason of that famine which follows; for it will be very grievous.
Rek ka tho e takang teh puenghoi a pataw han dawkvah, khobunae kum hah pahnim lah ao han.
32 The dream was doubled to Pharaoh, because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
Hahoi mang vai hni totouh Faro a mangsaknae teh hete hno kecu dawk doeh. Sak hane teh Cathut ni a caksak teh Cathut roeroe ni karanglah a pha sak han.
33 “Now therefore let Pharaoh look for a discreet and wise man, and set him over the land of Egypt.
Hatdawkvah, Faro ni tami buet touh a lungkaang e hoi kho ka pouk thai e tawng nateh Izip ram vah kahrawikung lah awm sak naseh.
34 Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint overseers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt’s produce in the seven plenteous years.
Faro ni hotheh sak naseh, ram thung vah Izip ram cakang hah pung panga pung touh pâtung naseh.
35 Let them gather all the food of these good years that come, and store grain under the hand of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it.
Ahnimouh ni khobu kum cakang pung hah pâkhueng vaiteh Faro kâtawnnae rahim vah o hanelah kho tangkuem hmalah ca hane pâtung naseh, khenyawn awh naseh.
36 The food will be to supply the land against the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt; so that the land will not perish through the famine.”
Hottelah takang kecu dawk ram a rawk hoeh nahanlah, takangnae kum kum sari touh Izip ram ka phat hane dawkvah, kâhruetcuet lah ao han, telah ati.
37 The thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
Hottelah pouknae a poe e hah, Faro hoi a sannaw pueng ni ahawi rip ati awh.
38 Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?”
Hottelah Faro ni a sannaw koe het patet e Cathut Muitha onae tami heh hmu thai awh han na ou telah ati.
39 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Because God has shown you all of this, there is no one so discreet and wise as you.
Faro ni Joseph koe Cathut ni hote hnonaw pueng hah na panue sak dawkvah, nang patetlae tami lungkaang hoi hno kaawm hane oang ka panuek e awm hoeh.
40 You shall be over my house. All my people will be ruled according to your word. Only in the throne I will be greater than you.”
Nang teh kaie imthung karingkung lah na o han, ka taminaw pueng hah nange kâ lahoi ao awh han, bawitungkhung dueng hah nang hlak kai bet ka lenhnawn han telah ati.
41 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Behold, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.”
Faro ni Joseph koe khenhaw! Izip ram pueng dawk kahrawikung lah na ta toe telah ati.
42 Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand, and put it on Joseph’s hand, and arrayed him in robes of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck.
Faro ni kutnoutthutnae kuthrawt hah a rading teh, Joseph kut dawk a buet pouh, hni loukloukkaang e hoi sak e hah a kâkhu sak teh a lahuen dawk sui dingyin hah a awi sak.
43 He made him ride in the second chariot which he had. They cried before him, “Bow the knee!” He set him over all the land of Egypt.
A tawn e leng kahni touh dawk a kâcui sak teh, a hmalah tabut awh, telah a hram awh. Hottelah Izip ram thung kahrawikung lah a coung sak.
44 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh. Without you, no man shall lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.”
Faro ni Joseph koevah, kai teh Faro doeh, nange kâpoe laipalah Izip ram thung pueng a kut hai thoseh, a khok hai thoseh, dâw thai mahoeh telah ati.
45 Pharaoh called Joseph’s name Zaphenath-Paneah. He gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On as a wife. Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.
Faro ni Joseph hah Zaphnath-Paaneah telah min a poe. On kho e vaihma Potiphar canu Asenath hah a yu lah a paluen pouh awh. Hahoi Joseph teh Izip ram kaukkung lah ahni koehoi a cei.
46 Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.
Joseph teh Izip siangpahrang Faro hmalah a kangdue navah, kum 30 touh doeh Joseph teh Faro koehoi a tâco teh Izip ram pueng dawk a cei.
47 In the seven plenteous years the earth produced abundantly.
Khobu kum kum sari touh thung talai ni puenghoi a pawhik a tâco sak.
48 He gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities. He stored food in each city from the fields around that city.
Izip ram e khobu kum kum sari touh thung e cakang pueng hah a pâkhueng teh kho tangkuem tengpam e cakang hah a hmouk sak.
49 Joseph laid up grain as the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting, for it was without number.
Joseph ni cakang hah talî teng e sadi patetlah kapappoung lah a pâtung, touk patenghai touk ngai hoeh toe, bangkongtetpawiteh, touklek hoeh toe.
50 To Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bore to him.
Hahoi takang a tho hoehnahlan vah Joseph ni capa kahni toun a tawn. Hotnaw teh On kho vaihma Potiphar canu Asenath ni a khe pouh e naw doeh.
51 Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh, “For”, he said, “God has made me forget all my toil, and all my father’s house.”
Joseph ni a camin hah Manasseh telah a phung. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut ni ka tawntamnae hoi apa imthung pueng na pahnim sak telah ati.
52 The name of the second, he called Ephraim: “For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
Hahoi a capa apâhni e min teh Ephraim telah a phung. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut ni kaie runae ram dawk ca catounnaw na tawn sak telah ati.
53 The seven years of plenty, that were in the land of Egypt, came to an end.
Hottelah Izip ram ka phat e khobu kum teh a loum.
54 The seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
Hahoi takang kum kum sari touh Joseph ni a dei tangcoung patetlah a kamtawng teh ram pueng dawk a pha. Hatei, Izip ram pueng dawk rawca ao.
55 When all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do.”
Hottelah Izip ram pueng teh takang ni koung a pha toteh, Faro koe rawca hei hoi a hram awh. Faro ni Izipnaw pueng koe Joseph koe cet awh nateh, a dei e pueng sak awh telah atipouh.
56 The famine was over all the surface of the earth. Joseph opened all the store houses, and sold to the Egyptians. The famine was severe in the land of Egypt.
Hahoi takang teh talai van pueng a pha teh, Joseph ni cakang pâtungnae tâsong pueng hah a paawng teh Izipnaw koevah a yo pouh. Izip ram vah takang teh puenghoi a pataw.
57 All countries came into Egypt, to Joseph, to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all the earth.
Talai van pueng dawk takang teh a pataw poung dawkvah, kho tangkuem e tami pueng teh cakang ran hanelah Izip ram e Joseph koe a cei awh.
