Jenèz 40
1 Alò, li te vin rive apre bagay sa yo ke chèf ki te responsab pran avan gou diven nan pou wa a, ansanm ak bòs boulanje a wa a te fè yon ofans kont mèt yo, Wa a Égypte la.
While these things were going on, it happened that two eunuchs, the cupbearer of the king of Egypt, and the miller of grain, offended their lord.
2 Farawon te vin plen ak kòlè sou ofisye sa yo, chèf ki responsab pote tas la, avèk bòs boulanje a.
And Pharaoh, being angry with them, (now the one was in charge of the cupbearers, the other of the millers of grain)
3 Alò li te sere yo nan prizon lakay Kaptenn a kò gad la, menm kote ke Joseph te anprizone a.
sent them to the prison of the leader of the military, in which Joseph also was a prisoner.
4 Kaptenn kò gad la te mete Joseph an chaj yo, pou li te okipe yo. Konsa, yo te nan prizon an pou kèk tan.
But the keeper of the prison delivered them to Joseph, who ministered to them also. Some little time passed by, while they were held in custody.
5 Epi pandan tan sa a, toude moun sa yo, chèf ki te responsab pran avan gou diven nan, ak bòs boulanje a wa a, te fè yon rèv nan menm nwit lan. Chak moun te fè pwòp rèv pa li, e chak rèv te gen pwòp entèpretasyon pa li.
And they both saw a similar dream on one night, whose interpretations should be related to one another.
6 Lè Joseph te vini kote yo nan maten, li te gade yo, e gade byen, yo te byen dekouraje.
And when Joseph had entered to them in the morning, and had seen them sad,
7 Li te mande ofisye Farawon an sila yo, ki te anprizone avèk li nan kay mèt li a: “Poukisa figi nou tris konsa jodi a?”
he consulted them, saying, “Why is your expression sadder today than usual?”
8 Epi yo te di li: “Nou te fè yon rèv, e nanpwen pèsòn pou entèprete li.” Alò, Joseph te di yo: “Èske entèpretasyon yo pa apatyen a Bondye? Di m istwa sa a, souple.”
They responded, “We have seen a dream, and there is no one to interpret it for us.” And Joseph said to them, “Doesn’t interpretation belong to God? Recount for me what you have seen.”
9 Epi chèf responsab goute diven nan te pataje rèv li avèk Joseph, e li te di a li menm: “Nan rèv mwen an, gade byen, te gen yon pye rezen devan m,
The chief cupbearer explained his dream first. “I saw before me a vine,
10 epi sou pye rezen an, te gen twa branch. Konsa, pandan li t ap boujonnen, flè li yo te parèt, e touf flè yo te pwodwi pakèt rezen mi.
on which were three shoots, which grew little by little into buds, and, after the flowers, it matured into grapes.
11 Alò, tas Farawon an te nan men m; epi mwen te pran rezen yo, mwen te peze yo nan tas Farawon an, e mwen te mete tas la nan men Farawon.”
And the cup of Pharaoh was in my hand. Therefore, I took the grapes, and I pressed them into the cup that I held, and I handed the cup to Pharaoh.”
12 Joseph te di l: “Men, sa se entèpretasyon sa a: twa branch sa yo se twa jou.
Joseph responded: “This is the interpretation of the dream. The three shoots are the next three days,
13 Nan yon tan twa jou, Farawon va leve tèt ou e reprann ou nan pozisyon ou. Ou va mete tas Farawon an nan men li menm jan ou te konn fè lè ou te nan sèvis responsab pote diven nan.
after which Pharaoh will remember your service, and he will restore you to your former position. And you will give him the cup according to your office, as you were accustomed to do before.
14 Sèlman, sonje mwen lè li ale byen avèk ou, e souple, fè m gras e nonmen non mwen a Farawon pou fè m soti nan kay sa a.
Only remember me, when it will be well with you, and do me this mercy, to suggest to Pharaoh to lead me out of this prison.
15 Paske mwen te kidnape nan peyi Ebre yo, e menm isit la mwen pa t fè anyen pou yo ta dwe mete m nan prizon.”
For I have been stolen from the land of the Hebrews, and here, innocently, I was cast into the pit.”
16 Lè bòs boulanje a te wè ke li te fè yon entèpretasyon favorab, li te di Joseph: “Mwen te wè nan rèv mwen an, e gade byen, te gen twa panyen pen blan sou tèt mwen.
The chief miller of grain, seeing that he had wisely unraveled the dream, said: “I also saw a dream: that I had three baskets of meal above my head,
17 Epi nan panyen pi wo a, te gen kèk nan tout kalite manje kwit pou Farawon, e zwazo yo te manje yo nan panyen sou tèt mwen an.”
and in one basket, which was the highest, I carried all foods that are made by the art of baking, and the birds ate from it.”
18 Alò, Joseph te reponn e te di: “Sa se entèpretasyon an. Twa panyen yo se twa jou.
Joseph responded: “This is the interpretation of the dream. The three baskets are the next three days,
19 Pandan twa jou ankò, Farawon va leve tèt ou sou ou. Li va pann ou sou yon bwa, e zwazo va retire chè sou ou e manje ou.”
after which Pharaoh will carry away your head, and also suspend you from a cross, and the birds will tear your flesh.”
20 Alò, li te vin rive nan twazyèm jou, ki te fèt nesans a Farawon an, ke li te fè yon fèt pou tout sèvitè yo. Epi li te leve tèt a chèf responsab pote manje a ak chèf bòs boulanje a pami sèvitè li yo.
The third day thereafter was the birthday of Pharaoh. And making a great feast for his servants, he remembered, during the banquet, the chief cupbearer and the chief miller of grain.
21 Li te reprann chèf responsab pote tas la nan pozisyon li, e li te ankò vin responsab mete tas la nan men Farawon.
And he restored the one to his place, to present him the cup;
22 Men li te pann chèf bòs boulanje a jis jan ke Joseph te entèprete pou yo.
the other he hanged on a gallows, and thus the truth of the interpreter of dreams was proven.
23 Men, chèf responsab pote manje a pa t sonje Joseph. Li te bliye li.
And although he advanced with so much prosperity, the chief cupbearer forgot his interpreter of dreams.
