1 मिश्रका राजाका पियाउने र पकाउनेले आफ्ना मालिकको विरुद्ध काम गरे ।
Some time later, the king’s cupbearer and baker offended their master, the king of Egypt.
2 आफ्ना यी दुई अधिकार प्राप्‍त मुख्‍य पियाउने र पकाउनेसँग फारो क्रोधित भए ।
Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker,
3 उनले तिनीहरूलाई अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कप्‍तानको घरमा कैदमा राखे, जहाँ योसेफलाई पनि राखिएको थियो ।
and imprisoned them in the house of the captain of the guard, the same prison where Joseph was confined.
4 अङ्गरक्षकहरूका कप्‍तानले योसेफलाई तिनीहरूको सेवा गर्ने जिम्मा दिए । तिनीहरू त्यस झ्यालखानामा केही समयसम्म रहे ।
The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he became their personal attendant. After they had been in custody for some time,
5 ती झ्यालखानामा भएका मिश्रका राजाका पकाउने र पियाउने दुवैले एकै रात आ-आफ्नै सपना देखे, र ती दुवै सपनाका आ-आफ्नै अर्थ थिए ।
both of these men—the Egyptian king’s cupbearer and baker, who were being held in the prison—had a dream on the same night, and each dream had its own meaning.
6 योसेफ बिहान तिनीहरूकहाँ आए र तिनीहरूलाई उदास देखे ।
When Joseph came to them in the morning, he saw that they were distraught.
7 उनले आफ्ना मालिकका घरमा भएको झ्यालखानामा उनीसँगै भएका फारोका अधिकारीहरूलाई भने, “तपाईंहरू आज किन यति धेरै उदास देखिनुहुन्छ?”
So he asked the officials of Pharaoh who were in custody with him in his master’s house, “Why are your faces so downcast today?”
8 तिनीहरूले उनलाई भने, “हामी दुवैले एउटा सपना देखेका छौँ र कसैले पनि त्यसको अर्थ खोल्न सकेको छैन ।” योसेफले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “के सबै अर्थहरू परमेश्‍वरका नै होइनन् र? कृपया, मलाई ती बताउनुहोस् ।”
“We both had dreams,” they replied, “but there is no one to interpret them.” Then Joseph said to them, “Don’t interpretations belong to God? Tell me your dreams.”
9 मुख्य पियाउनेले योसेफलाई आफ्नो सपना भने । तिनले उनलाई भने, “मेरो सपनामा मेरोअगि एउटा दाखको बोट थियो ।
So the chief cupbearer told Joseph his dream: “In my dream there was a vine before me,
10 त्यस दाखको बोटमा तिनवटा हाँगा थिए । जब त्यसमा टुसा पलायो, त्यसमा फूलहरू निस्किए र दाखका झुप्‍पाहरू पाके ।
and on the vine were three branches. As it budded, its blossoms opened and its clusters ripened into grapes.
11 फारोको कचौरा मेरो हातमा थियो । मैले ती दाख लिएँ र फारोको कचौरामा निचरेँ, र त्यस कचौरालाई फारोका हातमा टक्र्याएँ ।”
Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes, squeezed them into his cup, and placed the cup in his hand.”
12 योसेफले तिनलाई भने, “यसको अर्थ यस्तो छ । तिनवटा हाँगा भनेको तिन दिन हो ।
Joseph replied, “This is the interpretation: The three branches are three days.
13 तिन दिनभित्र फारोले तपाईंको शिर उच्‍च पार्नुहुनेछ र तपाईंलाई तपाईंको काममा पुनर्स्थापित गर्नुहुनेछ । तपाईं फारोका पियाउने हुनुहुँदाजस्तै तपाईंले फारोको कचौरालाई उहाँका हातमा टक्र्याउनुहुनेछ ।
Within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore your position. You will put Pharaoh’s cup in his hand, just as you did when you were his cupbearer.
14 तर तपाईंको भलो हुँदा मलाई सम्झनुहोस्, र कृपया ममाथि दया देखाउनुहोस् । मेरो विषयमा फारोलाई बताएर मलाई यस झ्यालखानाबाट बाहिर निकालिदिनुहोस् ।
But when it goes well for you, please remember me and show me kindness by mentioning me to Pharaoh, that he might bring me out of this prison.
15 किनकि मलाई वास्तवमा हिब्रूहरूका देशबाट अपहरण गरी ल्याइएको थियो । यहाँ पनि यस झ्यालखानामा राखिनुपर्ने कुनै काम मैले गरेको छैन ।”
For I was kidnapped from the land of the Hebrews, and even here I have done nothing for which they should have put me in this dungeon.”
16 जब मुख्य पकाउनेले सपनाको अर्थ असल भएको देखे, उनले योसेफलाई भने, “मैले पनि एउटा सपना देखेको थिएँ । रोटीका तिनवटा टोकरी मेरो टाउकोमाथि थिए ।
When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was favorable, he said to Joseph, “I too had a dream: There were three baskets of white bread on my head.
17 सबैभन्दा माथिको टोकरीमा फारोका निम्ति सबै किसिमका पकाइएका खाने कुरा थिए, तर चराहरूले मेरो टाउकोमाथिको टोकरीबाट ती खाइदिए ।”
In the top basket were all sorts of baked goods for Pharaoh, but the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head.”
18 योसेफले जवाफ दिए, “यसको अर्थ यस्तो छ । तिनवटा टोकरी भनेको तिन दिन हो ।
Joseph replied, “This is the interpretation: The three baskets are three days.
19 तिन दिनभित्र फारोले तपाईंको शिर उठाएर तपाईंलाई रुखमा झुण्ड्याइदिनुहुनेछ । चराहरूले तपाईंको मासु खानेछन् ।”
Within three days Pharaoh will lift off your head and hang you on a tree. Then the birds will eat the flesh of your body.”
20 त्यसपछिको तेस्रो दिन फारोको जन्म दिन थियो । तिनले आफ्ना सबै नोकरहरूका निम्ति भोजको आयोजना गरे । आफ्ना नोकरहरूका माझमा तिनले मुख्य पियाउने र मुख्य पकाउनेलाई उभ्याए ।
On the third day, which was Pharaoh’s birthday, he held a feast for all his officials, and in their presence he lifted up the heads of the chief cupbearer and the chief baker.
21 तिनले मुख्य पियाउनेलाई उनको जिम्मेवारीमा पुनर्स्थापित गरिदिए, र उनले फेरि फारोका हातमा कचौरा टक्र्याए ।
Pharaoh restored the chief cupbearer to his position, so that he once again placed the cup in Pharaoh’s hand.
22 तर योसेफले तिनीहरूलाई अर्थ बताएझैँ फारोले मुख्य पकाउनेलाई झुण्ड्याइदिए ।
But Pharaoh hanged the chief baker, just as Joseph had described to them in his interpretation.
23 मुख्य पियाउनेले भने योसेफलाई सम्झेनन्, तर उनलाई बिर्सिहाले ।
The chief cupbearer, however, did not remember Joseph; he forgot all about him.
