Postanak 41
1 A poslije dvije godine dana usni Faraon, a on stoji na jednoj rijeci.
At the end of two full years, Pharaoh dreamt, and behold, he stood by the river.
2 I gle, iz rijeke izaðe sedam krava lijepijeh i debelijeh, i stadoše pasti po obali.
Behold, seven cattle came up out of the river. They were sleek and fat, and they fed in the marsh grass.
3 I gle, iza njih izaðe iz rijeke sedam drugih krava, ružnijeh i mršavijeh, i stadoše pored onijeh krava na obali.
Behold, seven other cattle came up after them out of the river, ugly and thin, and stood by the other cattle on the brink of the river.
4 I ove krave ružne i mršave pojedoše onijeh sedam krava lijepijeh i debelijeh. U tom se probudi Faraon.
The ugly and thin cattle ate up the seven sleek and fat cattle. So Pharaoh awoke.
5 Pa opet zaspav usni drugom, a to sedam klasova izraste iz jednoga stabla jedrijeh i lijepijeh;
He slept and dreamt a second time; and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, healthy and good.
6 A iza njih isklija sedam klasova malijeh i šturijeh;
Behold, seven heads of grain, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
7 Pa ovi klasovi mali pojedoše onijeh sedam velikijeh i jedrijeh. U tom se probudi Faraon i vidje da je san.
The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy and full ears. Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.
8 I kad bi ujutru, on se zabrinu u duhu, i poslav sazva sve gatare Misirske i sve mudarce, i pripovjedi im šta je snio; ali niko ne može kazati Faraonu šta znaèi.
In the morning, his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all of Egypt’s magicians and wise men. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh.
9 Tada progovori starješina nad peharnicima Faraonu i reèe: danas se opomenuh grijeha svojega.
Then the chief cup bearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, “I remember my faults today.
10 Kad se Faraon rasrdi na sluge svoje i baci u tamnicu u kuæi zapovjednika stražarskoga mene i starješinu nad hljebarima,
Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, with the chief baker.
11 Usnismo u jednu noæ ja i on, svaki za sebe po znaèenju sna svojega usnismo.
We dreamt a dream in one night, he and I. Each man dreamt according to the interpretation of his dream.
12 A ondje bijaše s nama momèe Jevrejèe, sluga zapovjednika stražarskoga, i mi mu pripovjedismo sne, a on nam kaza šta èiji san znaèi.
There was with us there a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard, and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams. He interpreted to each man according to his dream.
13 I zbi se kako nam kaza: mene povrati Faraon u službu, a onoga objesi.
As he interpreted to us, so it was. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him.”
14 Tada Faraon posla po Josifa, i brže ga izvedoše iz tamnice, a on se obrija i preobuèe se, te izaðe pred Faraona.
Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. He shaved himself, changed his clothing, and came in to Pharaoh.
15 A Faraon reèe Josifu: usnih san, pa mi niko ne umije da kaže šta znaèi; a za tebe èujem da umiješ kazivati sne.
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have dreamt a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. I have heard it said of you, that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”
16 A Josif odgovori Faraonu i reèe: to nije u mojoj vlasti, Bog æe javiti dobro Faraonu.
Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, “It isn’t in me. God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.”
17 I reèe Faraon Josifu: usnih, a ja stojim kraj rijeke na obali.
Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, “In my dream, behold, I stood on the brink of the river;
18 I gle, iz rijeke izaðe sedam krava debelijeh i lijepijeh, te stadoše pasti po obali.
and behold, seven fat and sleek cattle came up out of the river. They fed in the marsh grass;
19 I gle, iza njih izaðe sedam drugih krava rðavijeh, i vrlo ružnijeh i mršavijeh, kakvijeh nijesam vidio u cijeloj zemlji Misirskoj.
and behold, seven other cattle came up after them, poor and very ugly and thin, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for ugliness.
20 I ove krave mršave i ružne pojedoše onijeh sedam debelijeh,
The thin and ugly cattle ate up the first seven fat cattle;
21 I kad im biše u trbuhu, ne poznavaše se da su im u trbuhu, nego opet bjehu onako ružne kao prije. U tom se probudih.
and when they had eaten them up, it couldn’t be known that they had eaten them, but they were still ugly, as at the beginning. So I awoke.
22 Pa opet usnih, a to sedam klasova izraste iz jednoga stabla jedrijeh i lijepijeh;
I saw in my dream, and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, full and good;
23 A iza njih isklija sedam malijeh, tankijeh i šturijeh.
and behold, seven heads of grain, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.
24 I ovi tanki klasovi proždriješe onijeh sedam lijepijeh. I ovo pripovjedih gatarima, ali mi nijedan ne zna kazati šta znaèi.
The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads of grain. I told it to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me.”
25 A Josif reèe Faraonu: oba su sna Faraonova jednaka; Bog javlja Faraonu šta je naumio.
Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God is about to do he has declared to Pharaoh.
26 Sedam lijepijeh krava jesu sedam godina, i sedam lijepijeh klasova jesu sedam godina; oba su sna jednaka.
The seven good cattle are seven years; and the seven good heads of grain are seven years. The dream is one.
27 A sedam krava mršavijeh i ružnijeh, što izaðoše iza onijeh, jesu sedam godina; i sedam klasova sitnijeh i šturijeh biæe sedam godina gladnijeh.
The seven thin and ugly cattle that came up after them are seven years, and also the seven empty heads of grain blasted with the east wind; they will be seven years of famine.
28 To je što rekoh Faraonu: Bog kaže Faraonu šta je naumio.
That is the thing which I have spoken to Pharaoh. God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do.
29 Evo doæi æe sedam godina vrlo rodnijeh svoj zemlji Misirskoj.
Behold, seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt are coming.
30 A iza njih nastaæe sedam gladnijeh godina, gdje æe se zaboraviti sve obilje u zemlji Misirskoj, jer æe glad satrti zemlju,
Seven years of famine will arise after them, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land,
31 Te se neæe znati to obilje u zemlji od gladi potonje, jer æe biti vrlo velika.
and the plenty will not be known in the land by reason of that famine which follows; for it will be very grievous.
32 A što je dva puta zasopce Faraon snio, to je zato što je zacijelo Bog tako naumio, i naskoro æe to uèiniti Bog.
The dream was doubled to Pharaoh, because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.
33 Nego sada neka potraži Faraon èovjeka mudra i razumna, pa neka ga postavi nad zemljom Misirskom.
“Now therefore let Pharaoh look for a discreet and wise man, and set him over the land of Egypt.
34 I neka gleda Faraon da postavi starješine po zemlji, i pokupi petinu po zemlji Misirskoj za sedam rodnijeh godina;
Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint overseers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt’s produce in the seven plenteous years.
35 Neka skupljaju od svakoga žita za rodnijeh godina koje idu, i neka snesu pod ruku Faraonovu svakoga žita u sve gradove, i neka èuvaju,
Let them gather all the food of these good years that come, and store grain under the hand of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it.
36 Da se naðe hrane zemlji za sedam godina gladnijeh, kad nastanu, da ne propadne zemlja od gladi.
The food will be to supply the land against the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt; so that the land will not perish through the famine.”
37 I ovo se uèini dobro Faraonu i svijem slugama njegovijem.
The thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.
38 I reèe Faraon slugama svojim: možemo li naæi èovjeka kakav je ovaj, u kojem bi bio duh Božji?
Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?”
39 Pa reèe Faraon Josifu: kad je tebi javio Bog sve ovo, nema nikoga tako mudra i razumna kao što si ti.
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Because God has shown you all of this, there is no one so discreet and wise as you.
40 Ti æeš biti nad domom mojim, i sav æe ti narod moj usta ljubiti; samo æu ovijem prijestolom biti veæi od tebe.
You shall be over my house. All my people will be ruled according to your word. Only in the throne I will be greater than you.”
41 I još reèe Faraon Josifu: evo, postavljam te nad svom zemljom Misirskom.
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Behold, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.”
42 I skide Faraon prsten s ruke svoje i metnu ga Josifu na ruku, i obuèe ga u haljine od tankoga platna, i objesi mu zlatnu verižicu o vratu,
Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand, and put it on Joseph’s hand, and arrayed him in robes of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck.
43 I posadi ga na kola koja bijahu druga za njegovijem, i zapovjedi da pred njim vièu: klanjajte se! i da ga je postavio nad svom zemljom Misirskom.
He made him ride in the second chariot which he had. They cried before him, “Bow the knee!” He set him over all the land of Egypt.
44 I još reèe Faraon Josifu: ja sam Faraon, ali bez tebe neæe niko maæi ruke svoje ni noge svoje u svoj zemlji Misirskoj.
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh. Without you, no man shall lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.”
45 I nadje Faraon Josifu ime Psontomfanih, i oženi ga Asenetom kæerju Potifere sveštenika Onskoga. I poðe Josif po zemlji Misirskoj.
Pharaoh called Joseph’s name Zaphenath-Paneah. He gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On as a wife. Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.
46 A bijaše Josifu trideset godina kad izaðe pred Faraona cara Misirskoga. I otišav od Faraona obiðe svu zemlju Misirsku.
Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.
47 I za sedam rodnijeh godina rodi zemlja svašta izobila.
In the seven plenteous years the earth produced abundantly.
48 I stade Josif kupiti za tijeh sedam godina svakoga žita što bješe po zemlji Misirskoj, i snositi žito u gradove; u svaki grad snošaše žito s njiva koje bjehu oko njega.
He gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities. He stored food in each city from the fields around that city.
49 Tako nakupi Josif žita vrlo mnogo koliko je pijeska morskoga, tako da ga presta mjeriti, jer mu ne bješe broja.
Joseph laid up grain as the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting, for it was without number.
50 I dokle još ne nasta gladna godina, rodiše se Josifu dva sina, koje mu rodi Aseneta kæi Potifere sveštenika Onskoga.
To Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bore to him.
51 I prvencu nadjede Josif ime Manasija, govoreæi: jer mi Bog dade da zaboravim svu muku svoju i sav dom oca svojega.
Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh, “For”, he said, “God has made me forget all my toil, and all my father’s house.”
52 A drugome nadjede ime Jefrem, govoreæi: jer mi Bog dade da rastem u zemlji nevolje svoje.
The name of the second, he called Ephraim: “For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
53 Ali proðe sedam godina rodnijeh u zemlji Misirskoj;
The seven years of plenty, that were in the land of Egypt, came to an end.
54 I nasta sedam godina gladnijeh, kao što je Josif naprijed kazao. I bješe glad po svijem zemljama, a po svoj zemlji Misirskoj bješe hljeba.
The seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
55 Ali najposlije nasta glad i po svoj zemlji Misirskoj, i narod povika k Faraonu za hljeb; a Faraon reèe svima Misircima: idite k Josifu, pa što vam on kaže ono èinite.
When all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do.”
56 I kad glad bješe po svoj zemlji, otvori Josif sve žitnice, i prodavaše Misircima. I glad posta vrlo velika u zemlji Misirskoj.
The famine was over all the surface of the earth. Joseph opened all the store houses, and sold to the Egyptians. The famine was severe in the land of Egypt.
57 I iz svijeh zemalja dolažahu u Misir k Josifu da kupuju; jer posta velika glad u svakoj zemlji.
All countries came into Egypt, to Joseph, to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all the earth.
