< Genesisy 40 >

1 Ary taorian’ izany ny mpitondra kapoakan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Egypta sy ny mpanao mofony dia diso tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Egypta tompony.
After this, it came to pass, that two eunuchs, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, offended their lord.
2 Ary tezitra indrindra tamin’ ireo tandapany roa lahy ireo Farao, dia tamin’ ny lehiben’ ny mpitondra kapoaka sy ny lehiben’ ny mpanao mofo.
And Pharao being angry with them (now the one was chief butler, the other chief baker)
3 Dia nataony tao an-trano-maizina izy roa lahy, tao an-tranon’ ny mpifehy ny mpiambina, tao anatin’ ny trano-maizina izay nifatoran’ i Josefa.
He sent them to the prison of the commander of the soldiers, in which Joseph also was prisoner,
4 Ary Josefa notendren’ ny mpifehy ny mpiambina ho eo amin’ izy roa lahy, dia nanompo ireo izy; ary nitoetra andro maromaro tao amin’ ny trano-maizina izy roa lahy.
But the keeper of the prison delivered them to Joseph, and he served them. Some little time passed, and they were kept in custody.
5 Ary nanonofy izy roa lahy indray alina, dia ilay mpitondra kapoaka sy ilay mpanao mofon’ ny mpanjakan’ i Egypta, izay nifatotra tao amin’ ny trano-maizina, ka samy nanana ny nofiny araka ny hevitry ny nofiny avy.
And they both dreamed a dream the same night, according to the interpretation agreeing to themselves:
6 Ary Josefa nankao aminy nony maraina ny andro ka nahita azy, fa, indreo, nalahelo tarehy izy.
And when Joseph was come in to them in the morning, and saw them sad,
7 Dia nanontanian’ i Josefa ny tandapan’ i Farao izay niara-nifatotra taminy tao an-tranon’ ny tompony, ka hoy izy: Nahoana no malahelo tarehy izato ianareo ankehitriny?
He asked them, saying: Why is your countenance sadder today than usual?
8 Ary hoy izy roa lahy taminy: Nanonofy izahay, ka tsy misy mahalaza ny heviny. Dia hoy Josefa taminy: Tsy avy amin’ Andriamanitra va ny filazana ny hevitry ny nofy? Masìna ianareo, lazao amiko izany.
They answered: We have dreamed a dream, and there is nobody to interpret it to us. And Joseph said to them: Doth not interpretation belong to God? Tell me what you have dreamed.
9 Dia nambaran’ ny lehiben’ ny mpitondra kapoaka tamin’ i Josefa ny nofiny, ka hoy izy taminy: Nofiko fa indro, hono, nisy tahom-boaloboka teo anatrehako;
The chief butler first told his dream: I saw before me a vine,
10 ary ilay tahom-boaloboka nisampana telo, ka nony nitsimoka izy, dia niposaka ny voniny, ary ny sampahony nahavanona voaloboka masaka.
On which were three branches, which by little and little sent out buds, and after the blossoms brought forth ripe grapes:
11 Ary teny an-tanako ny kapoakan’ i Farao; dia nalaiko ny voaloboka ka nofiazako ho ao amin’ ny kapoakan’ i Farao, dia natolotro teo an-tànan’ i Farao ny Kapoaka.
And the cup of Pharao was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into the cup which I held, and I gave the cup to Pharao.
12 Ary hoy Josefa taminy: Izao no heviny: Ny sampany telo dia hateloana.
Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three branches are yet three days:
13 Ato anatin’ ny hateloana dia hasandratr’ i Farao ianao ka hampodiny ho ao amin’ ilay nipetrahanao; dia hanolotra ny kapoakan’ i Farao ho eo an-tanany ianao tahaka ilay fanao fahiny, fony ianao mpitondra kapoakany.
After which Pharao will remember thy service, and will restore thee to thy former place: and thou shalt present him the cup according to thy office, as before thou wast wont to do.
14 Fa mba tsarovy aho, rehefa mahita soa ianao, ka trarantitra ianao, iantrao aho, dia lazao amin’ i Farao aho, ka avoahy amin’ ity trano ity;
Only remember me, when it shall be well with thee, and do me this kindness: to put Pharao in mind to take me out of this prison:
15 fa nangalarina mihitsy avy tany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Hebreo aho, ary atỳ koa tsy mba nanao izay tokony ho nanaovany ahy eto amin’ ity lavaka ity aho.
For I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here without any fault was cast into the dungeon.
16 Ary rehefa hitan’ ny lehiben’ ny mpanao mofo fa tsara ny filazana ny hevitry ny nofy, dia hoy izy tamin’ i Josefa: Izaho koa nanonofy, ka, indro, niloloha karaba telo feno mofo fotsy aho;
The chief baker seeing that he had wisely interpreted the dream, said: I also dreamed a dream, That I had three baskets of meal upon my head:
17 ary teo anatin’ ny karaba ambony indrindra dia nisy ny fihinan’ i Farao samy hafa karazana rehetra fanaon’ ny mpanao mofo; ary nohanin’ ny vorona teo anatin’ ny karaba izay nololohaviko izany.
And that in one basket which was uppermost, I carried all meats that are made by the art of baking, and that the birds ate out of it.
18 Dia namaly Josefa ka nanao hoe: Izao kosa no heviny. Ny karaba telo dia hateloana.
Joseph answered: This is the interpretation of the dream: The three baskets are yet three days:
19 Ato anatin’ ny hateloana dia hasandratr’ i Farao ho afaka aminao ny lohanao, (ka hahantony amin’ ny hazo ianao) dia hohanin’ ny vorona ny nofonao.
After which Pharao will take thy head from thee, and hang thee on a cross, and the birds shall tear thy flesh.
20 Ary tamin’ ny andro fahatelo, izay niherenan’ ny taona nahaterahan’ i Farao, dia nanao fanasana ho an’ ny mpanompony rehetra izy; dia nasandrany ny lohan’ ny lehiben’ ny mpitondra kapoaka sy ny lohan’ ny lehiben’ ny mpanao mofo teo amin’ ny mpanompony.
The third day after this was the birthday of Pharao: and he made a great feast for his servants, and at the banquet remembered the chief butler, and the chief baker.
21 Ary ny lehiben’ ny mpitondra kapoaka dia nampodiny tamin’ ny fitondrany kapoaka indray, ka dia nanolotra ny kapoaka ho eo an-tànan’ i Farao izy;
And he restored the one to his place to present him the cup:
22 fa ny lehiben’ ny mpanao mofo kosa dia nahantony, araka izay efa nolazain’ i Josefa tamin’ izy roa lahy avy.
The other he hanged on a gibbet, that the truth of the interpreter might be shewn.
23 Kanjo tsy mba nahatsiaro an’ i Josefa ilay lehiben’ ny mpitondra kapoaka, fa nanadino azy.
But the chief butler, when things prospered with him, forgot his interpreter.
