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 cometh to pass, after these things — the butler of the king of Egypt and the baker have sinned against their lord, against the king of Egypt;
2 Falaawo n’asunguwalira nnyo abakungu be abo: omusenero n’omukulu w’abafumbi,
and Pharaoh is wroth against his two eunuchs, 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 giveth them in charge in the house of the chief of the executioners, unto the round-house, the place where Joseph [is] a prisoner,
4 Omukulu w’ekkomera n’abawa Yusufu okubakuuma, n’abalabirira, ne babeera mu kkomera.
and the chief of the executioners chargeth Joseph with them, and he serveth them; and they are days in charge.
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 dream a dream both of them, each his dream in one night, each according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker whom the king of Egypt hath, who [are] prisoners in the round-house.
6 Yusufu bwe yajja gye bali ku makya, n’abalaba nga beeraliikirivu.
And Joseph cometh in unto them in the morning, and seeth them, and lo, they [are] morose;
7 N’alyoka abuuza abakungu ba Falaawo abaali naye mu kkomera, mu nnyumba ya mukama waabwe nti, “Lwaki leero mulabika nga mweraliikiridde?”
and he asketh Pharaoh's eunuchs who [are] with him in charge in the house of his lord, saying, 'Wherefore [are] your faces sad to-day?'
8 Ne bamuddamu nti, “Twaloose ebirooto, naye tewali wa kubivvuunula.” Awo Yusufu n’abagamba nti, “Katonda y’abivvuunula. Kale mbasaba mubimbuulire.”
And they say unto him, 'A dream we have dreamed, and there is no interpreter of it;' and Joseph saith unto them, 'Are not interpretations with God? recount, I pray you, to me.'
9 Awo omusenero n’ategeeza Yusufu ekirooto kye n’agamba nti, “Nalabye omuti omutiini mu kirooto.
And the chief of the butlers recounteth his dream to Joseph, and saith to him, 'In my dream, then lo, a vine [is] before me!
10 Ku mutiini nga kuliko amatabi asatu, gwabadde gwakatojjera ne gumulisa, ebirimba ne bibaako zabbibu ennyengevu.
and in the vine [are] three branches, and it [is] as it were flourishing; gone up hath its blossom, its clusters have ripened grapes;
11 Nga nkute ekikopo kya Falaawo mu ngalo zange, ne nzirira zabbibu ne nzikamulira mu kikopo kya Falaawo, ne nkimukwasa.”
and Pharaoh's cup [is] in my hand, and I take the grapes and press them into the cup of Pharaoh, and I give the cup into the hand of Pharaoh.'
12 Yusufu n’alyoka amugamba nti, “Gano ge makulu gaakyo: amatabi asatu, ze nnaku esatu;
And Joseph saith to 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.
yet, within three days doth Pharaoh lift up thy head, and hath put thee back on thy station, and thou hast given the cup of Pharaoh into his hand, according to the former custom when thou wast his butler.
14 Kyokka onzijukiranga ng’otuuse mu maaso ga Falaawo, onzijukiranga n’onjogerako gy’ali nkwegayiridde, alyoke anzigye mu kkomera.
'Surely if thou hast remembered me with thee, when it is well with thee, and hast done (I pray thee) kindness with me, and hast made mention of me unto Pharaoh, then hast thou brought me out from this house,
15 Kubanga ddala naggyibwa buggyibwa mu nsi y’Abaebulaniya; ate na wano sirina kye nakola kinsaanyiza kuteekebwa mu kkomera.”
for I was really stolen from the land of the Hebrews; and here also have I done nothing that they have put me in the pit.'
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 the chief of the bakers seeth that he hath interpreted good, and he saith unto Joseph, 'I also [am] in a dream, and lo, three baskets of white bread [are] 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 [are] of all [kinds] of Pharaoh's food, work of a baker; and the birds are eating them out of the basket, from off my head.'
18 Awo Yusufu n’amuddamu nti, “Gano ge makulu gaakyo: ebibbo ebisatu z’ennaku ssatu;
And Joseph answereth and saith, 'This [is] its interpretation: the three baskets are three days;
19 bwe wanaayitawo ennaku ssatu Falaawo ajja kukutemako omutwe, akuwanike ku muti, omulambo gwo guliibwe ebinyonyi.”
yet, within three days doth Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and hath hanged thee on a tree, and the birds have eaten 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 cometh to pass, on the third day, Pharaoh's birthday, that he maketh a banquet to all his servants, and lifteth 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 putteth back the chief of the butlers to his butlership, and he giveth the cup into the hand of Pharaoh;
22 kyokka ye omukulu w’abafumbi n’amuwanika ku muti, nga Yusufu bwe yavvuunula ebirooto byabwe.
and the chief of the bakers he hath hanged, as Joseph hath interpreted to them;
23 Naye omusenero n’atajjukira Yusufu n’amwerabira n’atamussaako mwoyo.
and the chief of the butlers hath not remembered Joseph, but forgetteth him.
