< Gênesis 40 >

1 E aconteceu depois d'estas coisas que peccaram o copeiro do rei do Egypto, e o padeiro, contra o seu senhor, o rei do Egypto.
And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt.
2 E indignou-se Pharaó muito contra os seus dois eunuchos, contra o copeiro-mór e contra o padeiro mór,
And Pharaoh was wroth against two of his officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
3 E entregou-os em guarda, na casa do capitão da guarda, na casa do carcere, no logar onde José estava preso.
And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
4 E o capitão da guarda deu cargo d'elles a José, para que os servisse; e estiveram muitos dias na prisão.
And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: and they continued a season in ward.
5 E ambos sonharam um sonho, cada um seu sonho na mesma noite, cada um conforme a interpretação do seu sonho, o copeiro e o padeiro do rei do Egypto, que estavam presos na casa do carcere.
And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his dream in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, which were bound in the prison.
6 E veiu José a elles pela manhã, e olhou para elles, e eis que estavam turbados.
And Joseph came in to them in the morning, and looked on them, and, behold, they were sad.
7 Então perguntou aos eunuchos de Pharaó, que com elle estavam no carcere da casa de seu senhor, dizendo: Porque estão hoje tristes os vossos semblantes?
And he asked Pharaoh’s officers that were with him in the ward of his lord’s house, saying, Why look you so sadly to day?
8 E elles lhe disseram: Temos sonhado um sonho, e ninguem ha que o interprete. E José disse-lhes: Não são de Deus as interpretações? contae-m'o, peço-vos.
And they said to him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said to them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell me them, I pray you.
9 Então contou o copeiro-mór o seu sonho a José, e disse-lhe: Eis que em meu sonho havia uma vide diante da minha face,
And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;
10 E na vide tres sarmentos, e estava como brotando; a sua flôr sahia, os seus cachos amadureciam em uvas:
And in the vine were three branches: and it was as though it budded, and her blossoms shot forth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes:
11 E o copo de Pharaó estava na minha mão, e eu tomava as uvas, e as espremia no copo de Pharaó, e dava o copo na mão de Pharaó.
And Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh’s cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaoh’s hand.
12 Então disse-lhe José: Esta é a sua interpretação: os tres sarmentos são tres dias;
And Joseph said to him, This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days:
13 Dentro ainda de tres dias Pharaó levantará a tua cabeça, e te restaurará ao teu estado, e darás o copo de Pharaó na sua mão, conforme o costume antigo, quando eras seu copeiro.
Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up your head, and restore you to your place: and you shall deliver Pharaoh’s cup into his hand, after the former manner when you were his butler.
14 Porem lembra-te de mim, quando te fôr bem; e rogo-te que uses commigo de compaixão, e que faças menção de mim a Pharaó, e faze-me sair d'esta casa;
But think on me when it shall be well with you, and show kindness, I pray you, to me, and make mention of me to Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:
15 Porque, de facto, fui roubado da terra dos hebreus; e tão pouco aqui nada tenho feito para que me puzessem n'esta cova.
For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews: and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.
16 Vendo então o padeiro-mór que tinha interpretado bem, disse a José: Eu tambem sonhava, e eis que tres cestos brancos estavam sobre a minha cabeça;
When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, I also was in my dream, and, behold, I had three white baskets on my head:
17 E no cesto mais alto havia de todos os manjares de Pharaó, da obra de padeiro: e as aves o comiam do cesto de sobre a minha cabeça.
And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of bakemeats for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket on my head.
18 Então respondeu José, e disse: Esta é a sua interpretação: os tres cestos são tres dias;
And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation thereof: The three baskets are three days:
19 Dentro ainda de tres dias Pharaó levantará a tua cabeça sobre ti, e te pendurará n'um pau, e as aves comerão a tua carne de sobre ti.
Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up your head from off you, and shall hang you on a tree; and the birds shall eat your flesh from off you.
20 E aconteceu ao terceiro dia, o dia do nascimento de Pharaó, que fez um banquete a todos os seus servos; e levantou a cabeça do copeiro-mór, e a cabeça do padeiro-mór, no meio dos seus servos.
And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh’s birthday, that he made a feast to all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants.
21 E fez tornar o copeiro-mór ao seu officio de copeiro, e deu o copo na mão de Pharaó,
And he restored the chief butler to his butlership again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh’s hand:
22 Mas ao padeiro-mór enforcou, como José havia interpretado.
But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 O copeiro-mór, porém, não se lembrou de José, antes esqueceu-se d'elle.
Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgot him.
