Jenèz 40
1 Kèk tan apre sa, chèf kanbiz ak chèf boulanje wa Lejip la te fè mèt yo yon bagay.
After these things, the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker offended their lord, the king of Egypt.
2 Farawon an te move ni sou chèf kanbiz la ni sou chèf boulanje a.
Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cup bearer and the chief baker.
3 Se konsa li te mete yo lakay kòmandan gad palè a, kote yo te fèmen Jozèf nan prizon an.
He put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
4 Kòmandan gad palè a mete yo sou kont Jozèf pou l' sèvi yo. Yo pase kèk tan nan prizon an.
The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he took care of them. They stayed in prison many days.
5 Yon jou lannwit, antan yo nan prizon an, chèf kanbiz ak chèf boulanje wa a te fè yo chak yon rèv. Chak rèv te gen sans pa yo.
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.
6 Lè Jozèf vin jwenn yo nan denmen maten, li jwenn yo boulvèse.
Joseph came in to them in the morning, and saw them, and saw that they were sad.
7 Li mande yo: -Poukisa nou kagou konsa jòdi a?
He asked Pharaoh’s officers who were with him in custody in his master’s house, saying, “Why do you look so sad today?”
8 Yo reponn li: -Nou chak fè yon rèv, men pa gen pesonn isit la ki ka esplike nou rèv yo. Jozèf reponn yo: -Eske se pa Bondye sèl ki ka esplike bagay konsa? Rakonte m' rèv nou yo.
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.”
9 Chèf kanbiz la rakonte Jozèf rèv li te fè a, li di l': -Nan rèv mwen an, mwen wè yon pye rezen devan m'.
The chief cup bearer told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, “In my dream, behold, a vine was in front of me,
10 Li te gen twa branch. Branch yo pran boujonnen, yo fè flè, yo fè rezen, rezen yo mi.
and in the vine were three branches. It was as though it budded, it blossomed, and its clusters produced ripe grapes.
11 Gwo gode farawon an te nan men mwen. Mwen pran rezen yo, mwen pije yo nan gode farawon an, lèfini mwen bay wa a li.
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.”
12 Jozèf di li: -Men sa rèv la vle di: Twa branch yo se twa jou.
Joseph said to him, “This is its interpretation: the three branches are three days.
13 Nan twa jou, farawon an pral chonje ou, li pral mete ou nan pozisyon ou ankò. Ou pral bay farawon an diven jan ou te konn fè l' anvan lè ou te chèf kanbiz li a.
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.
14 Men, lè tout bagay va mache byen pou ou, pa bliye m'. Tanpri, rann mwen sèvis sa a, pale ak farawon an pou mwen. Fè m' soti nan prizon sa a.
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.
15 Ou wè: se vòlè yo te vòlè m' nan peyi Ebre yo. Isit la menm, mwen pa t' fè anyen pou yo te mete m' nan prizon.
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.”
16 Lè chèf boulanje a wè bèl esplikasyon Jozèf te bay lòt la, li di l': -Mwen menm tout mwen fè yon rèv. Mwen wè te gen twa panyen pen sou tèt mwen.
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.
17 Nan panyen ki te anwo nèt la, te gen tout kalite bagay yo konn kwit nan fou pou wa a. Men, zwazo t'ap manje yo nan panyen an sou tèt mwen.
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.”
18 Jozèf reponn li: -Men sa rèv la vle di: Twa panyen yo se twa jou.
Joseph answered, “This is its interpretation. The three baskets are three days.
19 Nan twa jou farawon an pral fè rele ou, l'ap fè yo pann ou nan yon pyebwa, kote zwazo ap vin dechèpiye ou.
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.”
20 Sou twa jou vre, farawon an t'ap fè yon gwo resepsyon pou tout chèf ki t'ap sèvi avè l' yo, paske se te jou fèt li. Li fè rele chèf kanbiz la ak chèf boulanje a devan tout lòt chèf yo.
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.
21 Li mete chèf kanbiz la nan plas li ankò pou sèvi l'.
He restored the chief cup bearer to his position again, and he gave the cup into Pharaoh’s hand;
22 Men, li fè pann chèf boulanje a, jan Jozèf te di yo a.
but he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 Men, chèf kanbiz la pa dòmi reve Jozèf, li bliye l' nèt.
Yet the chief cup bearer didn’t remember Joseph, but forgot him.
