Kejadian 40
1 Beberapa waktu kemudian dua pelayan raja Mesir, yaitu pengurus minuman dan pengurus rotinya, membuat kesalahan terhadap raja.
And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt.
2 Maka marahlah raja kepada kedua pelayannya itu,
And Pharaoh was angry against two of his officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
3 lalu mereka dimasukkannya ke dalam penjara di rumah kepala pengawal istana, di tempat Yusuf ditahan.
And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
4 Lama juga mereka di penjara itu, dan kepala pengawal istana menugaskan Yusuf untuk melayani mereka.
And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: and they continued a season in ward.
5 Pada suatu malam pengurus minuman dan pengurus roti itu masing-masing bermimpi. Arti mimpi mereka itu tidak sama.
And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his dream in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, which were bound in the prison.
6 Ketika Yusuf datang kepada mereka keesokan paginya, mereka kelihatan sedih.
And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon them, and, behold, they were sad.
7 Lalu ia bertanya, "Mengapa Saudara-saudara begitu sedih hari ini?"
And he asked Pharaoh's officers that were with him in the ward of his lord's house, saying, Wherefore look all of you so sadly to day?
8 Jawab mereka, "Tadi malam kami mimpi, dan tidak ada yang tahu artinya." Kata Yusuf, "Cuma Allah yang memungkinkan orang menerangkan arti mimpi. Coba ceritakan mimpimu itu."
And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell me them, I pray you.
9 Pengurus minuman itu berkata, "Dalam mimpi itu saya melihat ada pohon anggur di depan saya.
And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;
10 Pohon itu bercabang tiga. Baru saja cabang-cabangnya mulai berdaun, segera bunga-bunganya berkembang, lalu buahnya menjadi masak.
And in the vine were three branches: and it was as though it budded, and her blossoms shot forth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes:
11 Pada waktu itu saya sedang memegang gelas minuman raja, jadi saya ambil buah anggur itu dan saya peras ke dalam gelas raja, lalu saya hidangkan kepadanya."
And 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 Yusuf berkata, "Inilah keterangannya: Tiga cabang itu artinya tiga hari.
And Joseph said unto him, This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days:
13 Dalam tiga hari ini raja akan membebaskan engkau, ia akan mengampuni engkau dan mengembalikan engkau kepada jabatanmu yang dahulu. Engkau akan menghidangkan gelas minuman kepada raja seperti dahulu.
Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up your head, and restore you unto your place: and you shall deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when you were his butler.
14 Tetapi ingatlah kepada saya apabila keadaanmu sudah baik. Tolong sampaikan persoalan saya kepada raja, supaya saya dibebaskan dari penjara ini.
But think on me when it shall be well with you, and show kindness, I pray you, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:
15 Sebab, sebetulnya dahulu saya diculik dari negeri orang Ibrani dan di sini pun, di Mesir ini, tidak pernah saya melakukan sesuatu kejahatan sampai harus dimasukkan ke dalam penjara."
For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews: and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.
16 Setelah pengurus roti itu tahu bahwa arti mimpi pengurus minuman itu baik, maka dia pun berkata kepada Yusuf, "Saya bermimpi juga, saya menjunjung tiga buah keranjang roti di atas kepala.
When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph, I also was in my dream, and, behold, I had three white baskets on my head:
17 Dalam keranjang yang paling atas terdapat bermacam-macam kue-kue untuk raja, tetapi burung-burung datang memakan kue-kue itu."
And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of baked food for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head.
18 Jawab Yusuf, "Inilah keterangan mimpi itu: Tiga keranjang itu artinya tiga hari.
And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation thereof: The three baskets are three days:
19 Dalam tiga hari ini raja akan menyuruh orang memenggal kepalamu lalu menggantungkan mayatmu pada sebuah tiang, dan burung-burung akan makan dagingmu."
Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up your head from off you, and shall hang you on a tree; and the birds shall eat your flesh from off you.
20 Tiga hari kemudian adalah hari ulang tahun raja, dan ia mengadakan pesta besar bagi semua pegawai. Ia memerintahkan supaya pengurus minuman dan pengurus roti dikeluarkan dari penjara dan dibawa ke hadapan semua pegawai istana.
And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants.
21 Pengurus minuman dikembalikannya kepada jabatan yang dahulu.
And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand:
22 Tetapi pengurus roti dihukum mati. Semuanya itu terjadi sesuai dengan apa yang dikatakan Yusuf.
But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 Tetapi pengurus minuman itu tidak ingat lagi kepada Yusuf. Ia sama sekali lupa padanya.
Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgotten about him.
