1 Mojzes 40
1 Pripetilo se je po teh stvareh, da sta točaj egiptovskega kralja in njegov pek užalila njunega gospoda, egiptovskega kralja.
While these things were going on, it happened that two eunuchs, the cupbearer of the king of Egypt, and the miller of grain, offended their lord.
2 Faraon je bil ogorčen zoper dva izmed svojih častnikov, zoper šefa točajev in zoper šefa pekov.
And Pharaoh, being angry with them, (now the one was in charge of the cupbearers, the other of the millers of grain)
3 Zaprl ju je v hišo poveljnika straže, v ječo, kraj, kjer je bil zvezan Jožef.
sent them to the prison of the leader of the military, in which Joseph also was a prisoner.
4 Poveljnik straže je Jožefa zadolžil z njima in ta jima je stregel in [neko] razdobje sta ostala v ječi.
But the keeper of the prison delivered them to Joseph, who ministered to them also. Some little time passed by, while they were held in custody.
5 Sanjala sta oba izmed njiju, vsak človek svoje sanje v isti noči, vsak človek glede na razlago svojih sanj, točaj in pek egiptovskega kralja, ki sta bila zvezana v ječi.
And they both saw a similar dream on one night, whose interpretations should be related to one another.
6 Jožef je zjutraj prišel k njima, pogledal nanju in glej, bila sta žalostna.
And when Joseph had entered to them in the morning, and had seen them sad,
7 Vprašal je faraonova častnika, ki sta bila z njim v ječi hiše njegovega gospodarja, rekoč: »Zakaj sta danes videti tako žalostna?«
he consulted them, saying, “Why is your expression sadder today than usual?”
8 Odgovorila sta mu: »Sanjala sva sanje, pa ni nobenega razlagalca le-teh.« Jožef jima je rekel: » Ali razlage ne pripadajo Bogu? Povejta mi jih, prosim vaju.«
They responded, “We have seen a dream, and there is no one to interpret it for us.” And Joseph said to them, “Doesn’t interpretation belong to God? Recount for me what you have seen.”
9 Glavni točaj je svoje sanje povedal Jožefu in mu rekel: »V mojih sanjah, glej, je bil pred menoj vinski trs,
The chief cupbearer explained his dream first. “I saw before me a vine,
10 in na vinskem trsu so bile tri mladike in te so bile kakor bi vzbrstele in bi njihovo cvetje poganjalo in bi njihovi šopi obrodili zrelo grozdje.
on which were three shoots, which grew little by little into buds, and, after the flowers, it matured into grapes.
11 V moji roki je bila faraonova čaša in vzel sem grozdje ter ga stisnil v faraonovo čašo in čašo podal v faraonovo roko.«
And the cup of Pharaoh was in my hand. Therefore, I took the grapes, and I pressed them into the cup that I held, and I handed the cup to Pharaoh.”
12 Jožef mu je rekel: »To je razlaga: ›Tri mladike so trije dnevi.
Joseph responded: “This is the interpretation of the dream. The three shoots are the next three days,
13 Že v treh dneh bo faraon povzdignil tvojo glavo in te ponovno postavil na tvoje mesto in faraonovo čašo boš po prejšnji navadi, ko si bil njegov točaj, izročal v njegovo roko.‹
after which Pharaoh will remember your service, and he will restore you to your former position. And you will give him the cup according to your office, as you were accustomed to do before.
14 Toda pomisli name, ko bo dobro s teboj in mi izkaži prijaznost, prosim te in me omeni faraonu in me privedi iz te hiše,
Only remember me, when it will be well with you, and do me this mercy, to suggest to Pharaoh to lead me out of this prison.
15 kajti zares sem bil ukraden proč iz hebrejske dežele in tudi tukaj nisem storil ničesar, da bi me vtaknili v grajsko ječo.«
For I have been stolen from the land of the Hebrews, and here, innocently, I was cast into the pit.”
16 Ko je glavni pek videl, da je bila razlaga dobra, je Jožefu rekel: »Tudi jaz sem bil v svojih sanjah in glej, na svoji glavi sem imel tri bele košare.
The chief miller of grain, seeing that he had wisely unraveled the dream, said: “I also saw a dream: that I had three baskets of meal above my head,
17 V najvišji košari je bilo vse vrste pekovskih izdelkov za faraona in ptice so jih jedle iz košare na moji glavi.«
and in one basket, which was the highest, I carried all foods that are made by the art of baking, and the birds ate from it.”
18 Jožef je odgovoril in rekel: »To je njihova razlaga: ›Tri košare so trije dnevi.
Joseph responded: “This is the interpretation of the dream. The three baskets are the next three days,
19 Že v treh dneh bo faraon vzdignil tvojo glavo iz tebe in te obesil na drevo in ptice bodo iz tebe jedle tvoje meso.‹«
after which Pharaoh will carry away your head, and also suspend you from a cross, and the birds will tear your flesh.”
20 Pripetilo se je tretji dan, ki je bil faraonov rojstni dan, da je priredil gostijo vsem svojim služabnikom in med svojimi služabniki povzdignil glavo glavnega točaja in glavnega peka.
The third day thereafter was the birthday of Pharaoh. And making a great feast for his servants, he remembered, during the banquet, the chief cupbearer and the chief miller of grain.
21 Glavnega točaja je ponovno vrnil v njegovo točajstvo in čašo je podajal v faraonovo roko,
And he restored the one to his place, to present him the cup;
22 toda glavnega peka je obesil, kakor jima je Jožef razložil.
the other he hanged on a gallows, and thus the truth of the interpreter of dreams was proven.
23 Vendar se glavni točaj ni spomnil Jožefa, temveč je nanj pozabil.
And although he advanced with so much prosperity, the chief cupbearer forgot his interpreter of dreams.
