Бытие 40
1 Бысть же по словесех сих, согреши старейшина винарск царя Египетска и старейшина житарск господину своему царю Египетскому.
And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and the baker committed an offense, against their lord the king of Egypt.
2 И разгневася фараон на оба евнухи своя, на старейшину винарска и на старейшину житарска,
And Pharaoh was wroth against his two officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
3 и вверже их в темницу во узилище, в место, идеже Иосиф ввержен бяше.
And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guards, into the prison, the place where Joseph was confined.
4 И вручи их старейшина темницы Иосифу, и предста им: и беста дни (некия) в темнице,
And the captain of the guards charged Joseph with them, and he served them; and they continued a season in ward.
5 и видеста оба сон во едину нощь: видение же сонное старейшины винарска и старейшины житарска, иже беста царя Египетска, суще в темнице, бяше сие.
And they dreamed a dream, both of them, each his dream in one night, each in accordance with the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison.
6 Вниде же к ним Иосиф заутра и виде их, и бяху смущени:
And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked at them, and, behold, they were sad.
7 и вопрошаше евнухов фараоних, иже быша с ним в темнице, у господина своего, глаголя: что, яко лица ваша уныла днесь?
And he asked the officers of Pharaoh that were with him in ward in his lord's house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sadly today?
8 Они же реша ему: сон видехом, и разсуждаяй его несть. Рече же им Иосиф: еда не Богом изявление их есть? Поведите убо мне.
And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is none to interpret it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell it to me, I pray you.
9 И поведа старейшина винарск сон свой Иосифу и рече: во сне моем бяше виноград предо мною:
The chief of the butlers then told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;
10 в винограде же три леторасли, и той цветущь произнесе отрасли, зрелы грозды лозныя:
And on the vine were three branches; and it was as though it budded, shot forth its blossoms, and on its clusters the grapes became ripe:
11 и чаша фараонова в руце моей: и взях грезн, и изжах оный в чашу, и дах чашу в руку фараоню.
And Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes, and pressed them out into Pharaoh's cup, and I placed the cup into Pharaoh's hand.
12 И рече ему Иосиф: сие разсуждение сему: три леторасли три дни суть:
And Joseph said unto him, This is its interpretation: The three branches are three days;
13 еще три дни, и помянет фараон сан твой, и паки поставит тя в старейшинство твое винарско, и подаси чашу фараону в руку его по сану твоему первому, якоже был еси виночерпчий:
Within yet three days will Pharaoh lift up thy head, and restore thee unto thy office; and thou shalt place Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler.
14 но помяни мя тобою, егда благо ти будет, и сотвориши надо мною милость, и да помянеши о мне фараону, и изведеши мя от твердыни сея:
Therefore if thou thinkest on me when it shall be well with thee, then show kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house;
15 яко татьбою украден бых из земли Еврейския, и зде ничто зло сотворих, но ввергоша мя в ров сей.
For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews; and here also have I not done the least that they should put me into the dungeon.
16 И виде старейшина житарск, яко прямо разсуди, и рече Иосифу: и аз видех сон, и мняхся три кошницы хлебов держати на главе моей:
And when the chief of the bakers saw that he had well interpreted, he said unto Joseph, I also [saw] in my dream, and, behold, I had three baskets with fine bread on my head:
17 в кошнице же верхней от всех родов, яже фараон яст, дело хлебенное, и птицы небесныя ядяху тая от кошницы, яже на главе моей.
And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of bakemeats, used as food for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket from my head.
18 Отвещав же Иосиф, рече ему: сие разсуждение его: три кошницы три дние суть:
And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation: The three baskets are three days;
19 еще три дние, и отимет фараон главу твою от тебе и повесит тя на древе, и изядят птицы небесныя плоть твою от тебе.
Within yet three days will Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and will hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.
20 Бысть же в день третий, день рождения бяше фараоня, и творяше пир всем отроком своим: и помяну старейшинство старейшины винарска и старейшинство старейшины житарска, посреде отрок своих:
And it came to pass on the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief of the butlers and the head of the chief of the bakers among his servants.
21 и постави старейшину винарска в старейшинство его: и подаде чашу в руку фараоню:
And he restored the chief of the butlers unto his butlership; and he placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand;
22 старейшину же житарска повеси (на древе), якоже сказа има Иосиф.
But the chief of the bakers he hanged, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 И не помяну старейшина винарск Иосифа, но забы его.
Yet the chief of the butlers did not remember Joseph, and forgot him.
