1 После тога догоди се, те пехарник цара мисирског и хлебар скривише господару свом, цару мисирском.
After these things, the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker offended their lord, the king of Egypt.
2 И Фараон се разгневи на та два дворанина, на старешину над пехарницима и на старешину над хлебарима;
Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cup bearer and the chief baker.
3 И баци их у тамницу у кући заповедника стражарског, где Јосиф беше сужањ.
He put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
4 А заповедник стражарски одреди им Јосифа да их служи; и беху дуго у тамници.
The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he took care of them. They stayed in prison many days.
5 И уснише сан обојица у једну ноћ, сваки по значењу свог сна за себе, и пехарник и хлебар цара мисирског, који беху сужњи у тамници.
They both dreamt a dream, each man his dream, in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the cup bearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were bound in the prison.
6 И сутрадан кад дође Јосиф к њима, погледа их, а они беху врло невесели.
Joseph came in to them in the morning, and saw them, and saw that they were sad.
7 Па запита дворане Фараонове, који беху сужњи с њим у кући господара његовог, и рече: Што сте данас лица невеселог?
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 А они му рекоше: Сан уснисмо обојица, а нема ко да нам каже шта значе. А Јосиф им рече: Шта значе, није ли у Бога? Али приповедите ми.
They said to him, “We have dreamt a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it.” Joseph said to them, “Don’t interpretations belong to God? Please tell it to me.”
9 И старешина над пехарницима приповеди сан свој Јосифу говорећи: Сних, а преда мном чокот;
The chief cup bearer told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, “In my dream, behold, a vine was in front of me,
10 И на чокоту беху три лозе, и напупи и процвате, и грожђе на њему узре;
and in the vine were three branches. It was as though it budded, it blossomed, and its clusters produced ripe grapes.
11 А у руци ми беше чаша Фараонова, те побрах зрело грожђе и исцедих га у чашу Фараонову, и додадох чашу Фараону.
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 А Јосиф му рече: Ово значи: три су лозе три дана.
Joseph said to him, “This is its interpretation: the three branches are three days.
13 Још три дана, и Фараон бројећи своје дворане узеће и тебе, и опет те поставити у пређашњу службу, и опет ћеш му додавати чашу као и пре док си му био пехарник.
Within three more days, Pharaoh will lift up your head, and restore you to your office. You will give Pharaoh’s cup into his hand, the way you did when you were his cup bearer.
14 Али немој заборавити мене кад будеш у добру, учини милост и помени за ме Фараону, и изведи ме из ове куће.
But remember me when it is well with you. Please show kindness to me, and make mention of me to Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house.
15 Јер су ме украли из земље јеврејске, а овде нисам ништа учинио да ме баце у ову јаму.
For indeed, I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here also I have done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.”
16 А кад виде старешина над хлебарима како лепо каза сан, рече Јосифу: и ја сних, а мени на глави три котарице беле;
When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, “I also was in my dream, and behold, three baskets of white bread were on my head.
17 И у најгорњој котарици беше свакојаких колача за Фараона, и птице јеђаху из котарице на мојој глави.
In the uppermost basket there were all kinds of baked food for Pharaoh, and the birds ate them out of the basket on my head.”
18 А Јосиф одговори и рече: Ово значи: три котарице три су дана.
Joseph answered, “This is its interpretation. The three baskets are three days.
19 Још три дана, и Фараон бројећи дворане своје избациће те и обесиће те на вешала, и птице ће јести с тебе месо.
Within three more days, Pharaoh will lift up your head from off you, and will hang you on a tree; and the birds will eat your flesh from off you.”
20 И кад дође трећи дан, то беше дан у који се родио Фараон, и учини Фараон гозбу свим слугама својим, и наиђе међу слугама својим на старешину над пехарницима и на старешину над хлебарима;
On the third day, which was Pharaoh’s birthday, he made a feast for all his servants, and he lifted up the head of the chief cup bearer and the head of the chief baker amongst his servants.
21 И поврати старешину над пехарницима у службу да додаје чашу Фараону;
He restored the chief cup bearer to his position again, and he gave the cup into Pharaoh’s hand;
22 А старешину над хлебарима обеси, као што каза Јосиф.
but he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 И старешина над пехарницима не опомену се Јосифа, него га заборави.
Yet the chief cup bearer didn’t remember Joseph, but forgot him.
