Genesis 40
1 After these things, the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker offended their lord, the king of Egypt.
Sima na mwa tango, kalaka oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali masanga ya mokonzi ya Ejipito mpe oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali mapa ya mokonzi ya Ejipito, basalaki mabe liboso ya nkolo na bango, mokonzi ya Ejipito.
2 Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cup bearer and the chief baker.
Faraon asilikelaki bakalaka na ye mibale ya lokumu: kalaka oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali masanga mpe oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali mapa.
3 He put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
Abwakaki bango na boloko kati na ndako ya mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi, boloko epai wapi Jozefi azalaki.
4 The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he took care of them. They stayed in prison many days.
Mokonzi ya bakengeli ya mokonzi apesaki bango na maboko ya Jozefi mpo ete alandela bango. Boye basalaki mikolo mwa mingi na boloko.
5 They both dreamt a dream, each man his dream, in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the cup bearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were bound in the prison.
Ezalaki mokolo moko na butu, bango mibale, kalaka oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali masanga mpe oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali mapa ya mokonzi ya Ejipito, balotaki moto na moto ndoto na ye mpe ndoto na ndoto ezalaki na ndimbola na yango.
6 Joseph came in to them in the morning, and saw them, and saw that they were sad.
Na tongo, Jozefi akendeki epai na bango mpe amonaki ete bazali mawa-mawa.
7 He asked Pharaoh’s officers who were with him in custody in his master’s house, saying, “Why do you look so sad today?”
Jozefi atunaki bakalaka ya lokumu ya Faraon, oyo bazalaki kati na boloko elongo na ye, kati na ndako ya nkolo na ye: — Mpo na nini lelo bilongi na bino ezali mawa-mawa?
8 They said to him, “We have dreamt a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it.” Joseph said to them, “Don’t interpretations belong to God? Please tell it to me.”
Bazongiselaki ye: — Biso mibale toloti bandoto; kasi moto ya kolimbola yango mpo na biso azali te. Jozefi alobaki na bango: — Boyebi te ete Nzambe nde apesaka ndimbola ya bandoto? Nabondeli bino, boyebisa ngai bandoto na bino.
9 The chief cup bearer told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, “In my dream, behold, a vine was in front of me,
Bongo kalaka oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali masanga ya mokonzi ya Ejipito ayebisaki Jozefi ndoto na ye. Alobaki: — Na ndoto na ngai, namonaki nzete ya vino liboso na ngai.
10 and in the vine were three branches. It was as though it budded, it blossomed, and its clusters produced ripe grapes.
Nzete yango ya vino ezalaki na bitape misato. Bongo ekomaki kobimisa mito, fololo mpe maboke ebimisaki bambuma ya kotela.
11 Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh’s cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaoh’s hand.”
Kopo ya Faraon ezalaki na maboko na ngai. Nazwaki bambuma ya vino, nakamolaki yango na kopo ya Faraon mpe napesaki ye kopo yango na maboko na ye.
12 Joseph said to him, “This is its interpretation: the three branches are three days.
Jozefi alobaki na ye: — Tala ndimbola ya ndoto na yo: « Bitape misato ezali mikolo misato.
13 Within three more days, Pharaoh will lift up your head, and restore you to your office. You will give Pharaoh’s cup into his hand, the way you did when you were his cup bearer.
Sima na mikolo misato, Faraon akotombola moto na yo mpe akozongisa yo na esika na yo ya mosala. Okotia lisusu kopo ya Faraon na maboko na ye ndenge ozalaki kosala na kala.
14 But remember me when it is well with you. Please show kindness to me, and make mention of me to Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house.
Kasi tango makambo nyonso oyo ekotambola malamu mpo na yo, nabondeli yo, kanisa ngai mpe salela ngai bolamu, zala molobeli na ngai epai ya Faraon mpo ete abimisa ngai na boloko oyo.
15 For indeed, I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here also I have done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.”
Pamba te babimisaki ngai na makasi wuta na mokili ya Ba-Ebre; mpe awa nasali likambo moko te ya mabe mpo ete batia ngai na boloko. »
16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, “I also was in my dream, and behold, three baskets of white bread were on my head.
Tango kalaka oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali mapa ya mokonzi ya Ejipito asosolaki ete Jozefi apesaki ndimbola ya malamu, alobaki na Jozefi: — Ngai mpe nalotaki ndoto: « Bitunga misato ya mapa ezalaki likolo ya moto na ngai.
17 In the uppermost basket there were all kinds of baked food for Pharaoh, and the birds ate them out of the basket on my head.”
Kitunga ya likolo ezalaki na bagato ya ndenge na ndenge, oyo Faraon alingaka; kasi bandeke ezalaki kolia yango wuta na kitunga oyo ezalaki na moto na ngai. »
18 Joseph answered, “This is its interpretation. The three baskets are three days.
Jozefi alobaki na ye: — Tala ndimbola ya ndoto na yo: « Bitunga misato ezali mikolo misato.
19 Within three more days, Pharaoh will lift up your head from off you, and will hang you on a tree; and the birds will eat your flesh from off you.”
Sima na mikolo misato, Faraon akokata moto na yo mpe akodiembika yo na nzete. Bongo bandeke ekolia mosuni na yo. »
20 On the third day, which was Pharaoh’s birthday, he made a feast for all his servants, and he lifted up the head of the chief cup bearer and the head of the chief baker amongst his servants.
Sima na mikolo misato, ezalaki mokolo ya mbotama ya Faraon. Faraon asalisaki feti monene mpe abengisaki bakalaka na ye nyonso. Abimisaki na boloko, liboso ya bakalaka na ye, kalaka oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali masanga ya mokonzi mpe kalaka oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali mapa.
21 He restored the chief cup bearer to his position again, and he gave the cup into Pharaoh’s hand;
Faraon azongisaki na mosala, kalaka oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali masanga. Boye azongelaki lisusu kotia kopo na maboko ya Faraon.
22 but he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
Kasi Faraon adiembikaki kalaka oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali mapa, ndenge kaka Jozefi ayebisaki bango.
23 Yet the chief cup bearer didn’t remember Joseph, but forgot him.
Kasi kalaka oyo azalaki kotala makambo oyo etali masanga ya mokonzi ya Ejipito atikalaki kokanisa lisusu Jozefi te: abosanaki ye.
