< Postanak 40 >

1 Poslije toga dogodi se, te peharnik cara Misirskoga i hljebar skriviše gospodaru svojemu, caru Misirskom.
It happened after these things that the cupbearer of the king of Egypt and his baker offended their lord, the king of Egypt.
2 I Faraon se razgnjevi na ta dva dvoranina, na starješinu nad peharnicima i na starješinu nad hljebarima;
Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker.
3 I baci ih u tamnicu u kuæi zapovjednika stražarskoga, gdje Josif bješe sužanj.
So he put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the prison, the place where Joseph was confined.
4 A zapovjednik stražarski odredi im Josifa da ih služi; i bijahu dugo u tamnici.
The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he attended them. They stayed in prison for some time.
5 I usniše san obojica u jednu noæ, svaki po znaèenju svojega sna za sebe, i peharnik i hljebar cara Misirskoga, koji bijahu sužnji u tamnici.
And the cupbearer and the baker for the king of Egypt, who were confined in jail, both had a dream the same night, and each dream had its own meaning.
6 I sjutradan kad doðe Josif k njima, pogleda ih, a oni bjehu vrlo neveseli.
Joseph met them in the morning and looked at them and saw that they were sad.
7 Pa zapita dvorane Faraonove, koji bijahu sužnji s njim u kuæi gospodara njegova, i reèe: što ste danas lica nevesela?
He asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in custody in his master's house, saying, "Why do you look so sad today?"
8 A oni mu rekoše: san usnismo obojica, a nema ko da nam kaže šta znaèe. A Josif im reèe: šta znaèe, nije li u Boga? ali pripovjedite mi.
They said to him, "We both had dreams, but there is no one who can interpret it." Joseph said to them, "Do not interpretations belong to God? Please tell it to me."
9 I starješina nad peharnicima pripovjedi san svoj Josifu govoreæi: snih, a preda mnom èokot;
The chief cupbearer told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, "In my dream, look, a vine was in front of me,
10 I na èokotu bjehu tri loze, i napupi i procvate, i grožðe na njemu uzre;
and in the vine were three branches. When it budded, its blossoms opened, and its clusters ripened into grapes.
11 A u ruci mi bješe èaša Faraonova, te pobrah zrelo grožðe i iscijedih ga u èašu Faraonovu, i dodadoh èašu Faraonu.
Pharaoh's cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes and squeezed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I placed the cup into Pharaoh's hand."
12 A Josif mu reèe: ovo znaèi: tri su loze tri dana.
Then Joseph said to him, "This is its interpretation: the three branches are three days.
13 Još tri dana, i Faraon brojeæi svoje dvorane uzeæe i tebe, i opet te postaviti u preðašnju službu, i opet æeš mu dodavati èašu kao i preðe dok si mu bio peharnik.
Within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your office. You will put Pharaoh's cup into his hand as you used to when you were his cupbearer.
14 Ali nemoj zaboraviti mene kad budeš u dobru, uèini milost i pomeni za me Faraonu, i izvadi me iz ove kuæe.
But remember me when it goes well for you, and please do me the kindness to mention me to Pharaoh and get me out of this prison.
15 Jer su me ukrali iz zemlje Jevrejske, a ovdje nijesam ništa uèinio da me bace u ovu jamu.
For indeed, I was kidnapped from the land of the Hebrews, and even here I have done nothing that they should have put me into the pit."
16 A kad vidje starješina nad hljebarima kako lijepo kaza san, reèe Josifu: i ja snih, a meni na glavi tri kotarice bijele;
When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was favorable, he said to Joseph, "I also appeared in my dream, and look, three baskets of white bread were on my head.
17 I u najgornjoj kotarici bijaše svakojakih kolaèa za Faraona, i ptice jeðahu iz kotarice na mojoj glavi.
In the top basket there was all kinds of baked goods for Pharaoh, but the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head."
18 A Josif odgovori i reèe: ovo znaèi: tri kotarice tri su dana.
Joseph answered, "This is its interpretation: the three baskets are three days.
19 Još tri dana, i Faraon brojeæi dvorane svoje izbaciæe te i objesiæe te na vješala, i ptice æe jesti s tebe meso.
Within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head from off you, and impale you on a pole, and the birds will eat your flesh off you."
20 I kad doðe treæi dan, to bješe dan u koji se rodio Faraon, i uèini Faraon gozbu svima slugama svojim, i naiðe meðu slugama svojim na starješinu nad peharnicima i na starješinu nad hljebarima;
And it happened on the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he gave a feast for all his servants, and he lifted up the head of the chief cupbearer and the head of the chief baker among his servants.
21 I povrati starješinu nad peharnicima u službu da dodaje èašu Faraonu;
He restored the chief cupbearer to his position again, and he placed the cup into Pharaoh's hand;
22 A starješinu nad hljebarima objesi, kao što kaza Josif.
but he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 I starješina nad peharnicima ne opomenu se Josifa, nego ga zaboravi.
But the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.
