Olubereberye 40
1 Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo omusenero wa kabaka w’e Misiri wamu n’omukulu wa bafumbi be ne banyiiza mukama waabwe kabaka w’e Misiri.
And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and the baker committed an offense, against their lord the king of Egypt.
2 Falaawo n’asunguwalira nnyo abakungu be abo: omusenero n’omukulu w’abafumbi,
And Pharaoh was wroth against his two officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
3 n’abawaayo mu mikono gy’omukulu w’ekkomera, Yusufu mwe yali.
And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guards, into the prison, the place where Joseph was confined.
4 Omukulu w’ekkomera n’abawa Yusufu okubakuuma, n’abalabirira, ne babeera mu kkomera.
And the captain of the guards charged Joseph with them, and he served them; and they continued a season in ward.
5 Naye ekiro kimu omusenero n’omukulu wa bafumbi aba kabaka w’e Misiri abaali mu kkomera ne baloota, buli omu ekirooto kye, era nga buli kimu kirina amakulu gaakyo.
And they dreamed a dream, both of them, each his dream in one night, each in accordance with the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison.
6 Yusufu bwe yajja gye bali ku makya, n’abalaba nga beeraliikirivu.
And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked at them, and, behold, they were sad.
7 N’alyoka abuuza abakungu ba Falaawo abaali naye mu kkomera, mu nnyumba ya mukama waabwe nti, “Lwaki leero mulabika nga mweraliikiridde?”
And he asked the officers of Pharaoh that were with him in ward in his lord's house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sadly today?
8 Ne bamuddamu nti, “Twaloose ebirooto, naye tewali wa kubivvuunula.” Awo Yusufu n’abagamba nti, “Katonda y’abivvuunula. Kale mbasaba mubimbuulire.”
And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is none to interpret it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell it to me, I pray you.
9 Awo omusenero n’ategeeza Yusufu ekirooto kye n’agamba nti, “Nalabye omuti omutiini mu kirooto.
The chief of the butlers then told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;
10 Ku mutiini nga kuliko amatabi asatu, gwabadde gwakatojjera ne gumulisa, ebirimba ne bibaako zabbibu ennyengevu.
And on the vine were three branches; and it was as though it budded, shot forth its blossoms, and on its clusters the grapes became ripe:
11 Nga nkute ekikopo kya Falaawo mu ngalo zange, ne nzirira zabbibu ne nzikamulira mu kikopo kya Falaawo, ne nkimukwasa.”
And Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes, and pressed them out into Pharaoh's cup, and I placed the cup into Pharaoh's hand.
12 Yusufu n’alyoka amugamba nti, “Gano ge makulu gaakyo: amatabi asatu, ze nnaku esatu;
And Joseph said unto him, This is its interpretation: The three branches are three days;
13 mu nnaku ssatu Falaawo alikuggya mu kkomera n’akuzza mu kifo kyo, era olimukwasa ekikopo nga bwe wakolanga edda ng’oli musenero we.
Within yet three days will Pharaoh lift up thy head, and restore thee unto thy office; and thou shalt place Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler.
14 Kyokka onzijukiranga ng’otuuse mu maaso ga Falaawo, onzijukiranga n’onjogerako gy’ali nkwegayiridde, alyoke anzigye mu kkomera.
Therefore if thou thinkest on me when it shall be well with thee, then show kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house;
15 Kubanga ddala naggyibwa buggyibwa mu nsi y’Abaebulaniya; ate na wano sirina kye nakola kinsaanyiza kuteekebwa mu kkomera.”
For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews; and here also have I not done the least that they should put me into the dungeon.
16 Omukulu w’abafumbi ba Falaawo bwe yalaba ng’amakulu g’ekirooto ky’oli gaali malungi, n’agamba Yusufu nti, “Nange naloose ekirooto: nga neetisse ku mutwe ebibbo by’emigaati bisatu.
And when the chief of the bakers saw that he had well interpreted, he said unto Joseph, I also [saw] in my dream, and, behold, I had three baskets with fine bread on my head:
17 Mu kibbo ekyokusatu mwabaddemu buli ngeri ya mmere enjokye eya Falaawo. Kyokka ng’ennyonyi zigiriira ku mutwe gwange.”
And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of bakemeats, used as food for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket from my head.
18 Awo Yusufu n’amuddamu nti, “Gano ge makulu gaakyo: ebibbo ebisatu z’ennaku ssatu;
And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation: The three baskets are three days;
19 bwe wanaayitawo ennaku ssatu Falaawo ajja kukutemako omutwe, akuwanike ku muti, omulambo gwo guliibwe ebinyonyi.”
Within yet three days will Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and will hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.
20 Ku lunaku olwokusatu, lwali lunaku lwa mazaalibwa ga Falaawo, n’akolera abaweereza be bonna embaga, n’atumya omusenero n’omukulu w’abafumbi.
And it came to pass on 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 of the butlers and the head of the chief of the bakers among his servants.
21 Omusenero n’amuzza ku mulimu gwe, n’atandika okuweereza Falaawo,
And he restored the chief of the butlers unto his butlership; and he placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand;
22 kyokka ye omukulu w’abafumbi n’amuwanika ku muti, nga Yusufu bwe yavvuunula ebirooto byabwe.
But the chief of the bakers he hanged, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 Naye omusenero n’atajjukira Yusufu n’amwerabira n’atamussaako mwoyo.
Yet the chief of the butlers did not remember Joseph, and forgot him.
