1 これらの事の後エジプト王の酒人と膳夫その主エジプト王に罪ををかす
And after these things, the butler of the King of Egypt and his baker offended their lorde the King of Egypt.
2 パロその二人の臣すなはち酒人の長と膳夫の長を怒りて
And Pharaoh was angrie against his two officers, against the chiefe butler, and against the chiefe baker.
3 之を侍衞の長の家の中なる獄に幽囚ふヨセフが繋れをる所なり
Therefore he put them in ward in his chiefe stewardes house, in the prison and place where Ioseph was bound.
4 侍衞の長ヨセフをして彼等の側に侍しめたればヨセフ之につかふ彼等幽囚れて日を經たり
And the chiefe steward gaue Ioseph charge ouer them, and he serued them: and they continued a season in warde.
5 茲に獄に繋れたるエジプト王の酒人と膳夫の二人ともに一夜の中に各夢を見たりその夢はおのおんおのその解明にかなふ
And they both dreamed a dreame, eyther of them his dreame in one night, eche one according to the interpretation of his dreame, both the butler and the baker of the King of Egypt, which were bounde in the prison.
6 ヨセフ朝に及びて彼等の所に入て視るに彼等物憂に見ゆ
And when Ioseph came in vnto them in the morning, and looked vpon them, beholde, they were sad.
7 是に於てヨセフその主人の家に己とともに幽囚をるパロの臣に問て汝等なにゆゑに今日は顏色あやしきやといふに
And he asked Pharaohs officers, that were with him in his masters warde, saying, Wherefore looke ye so sadly to day?
8 彼等これにいふ我等夢を見たれど之を解く者なしとヨセフ彼等にいひけるは解く事は神によるにあらずや請ふ我に述よ
Who answered him, We haue dreamed, eche one a dreame, and there is none to interprete the same. Then Ioseph saide vnto them, Are not interpretations of God? tell them me nowe.
9 酒人の長その夢をヨセフに述て之にいふ我夢の中に見しにわが前に一の葡萄樹あり
So the chiefe butler tolde his dreame to Ioseph, and said vnto him, In my dreame, behold, a vine was before me,
10 その樹に三の枝あり芽いで花ひらきて葡萄なり球をなして熟たるがごとくなりき
And in the vine were three branches, and as it budded, her flowre came foorth: and the clusters of grapes waxed ripe.
11 時にパロの爵わが手にあり我葡萄を摘てこれをパロの爵に搾りその爵をパロの手に奉たり
And I had Pharaohs cup in mine hande, and I tooke the grapes, and wrung the into Pharaohs cup, and I gaue the cup into Pharaohs hand.
12 ヨセフ彼にいひけるはその解明は是のごとし三の枝は三日なり
Then Ioseph sayde vnto him, This is the interpretation of it: The three braunches are three dayes.
13 今より三日の中にパロなんぢの首を擧げ汝を故の所にかへさん汝は曩に酒人たりし時になせし如くパロの爵をその手に奉ぐるにいたらん
Within three dayes shall Pharaoh lift vp thine head, and restore thee vnto thine office, and thou shalt giue Pharaohs cup into his hand after the olde maner, when thou wast his butler.
14 然ば請ふ汝善ならん時に我をおもひて我に恩惠をほどこし吾事をパロにのべてこの家よりわれを出せ
But haue me in remembrance with thee, when thou art in good case, and shew mercie, I pray thee, vnto me, and make mention of me to Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring me out of this house.
15 我はまことにヘブル人の地より掠れ來しものなればなりまた此にても我は牢にいれらるるがごとき事はなさざりしなり
For I was stollen away by theft out of the land of the Ebrewes, and here also haue I done nothing, wherefore they should put mee in the dungeon.
16 茲に膳夫の長その解明の善りしを見てヨセフにいふ我も夢を得て見たるに白きパン三筐わが首にありて
And when the chiefe baker sawe that the interpretation was good, hee saide vnto Ioseph, Also mee thought in my dreame that I had three white baskets on mine head.
17 その上の筐には膳夫がパロのために作りたる各種の饌ありしが鳥わが首の筐の中より之をくらへり
And in the vppermost basket there was of all maner baken meates for Pharaoh: and the birdes did eate them out of the basket vpon mine head.
18 ヨセフこたへていひけるはその解明はかくのごとし三の筐は三日なり
Then Ioseph answered, and saide, This is the interpretation thereof: The three baskets are three dayes:
19 今より三日の中にパロ汝の首を擧はなして汝を木に懸んしかして鳥汝の肉をくらひとるべしと
Within three dayes shall Pharaoh take thine head from thee, and shall hang thee on a tree, and the birdes shall eate thy flesh from off thee.
20 第三日はパロの誕辰なればパロその諸の臣僕に筵席をなし酒人の長と膳夫の長をして首をその臣僕の中に擧しむ
And so the third day, which was Pharaohs birthday, hee made a feast vnto all his seruants: and hee lifted vp the head of the chiefe butler, and the head of the chiefe baker among his seruants.
21 即ちパロ酒人の長をその職にかへしければ彼爵をパロの手に奉たり
And he restored the chiefe butler vnto his butlershippe, who gaue the cup into Pharaohs hande,
22 されど膳夫の長は木に懸らるヨセフの彼等に解明せるがごとし
But he hanged the chiefe baker, as Ioseph had interpreted vnto them.
23 然るに酒人の長ヨセフをおぼえずして之を忘れたり
Yet the chiefe butler did not remember Ioseph, but forgate him.
