Bilowgii 41
1 Markii laba sannadood oo dhammu dhammaatay ayuu Fircoon riyooday, oo wuxuu is-arkay isagoo webiga ag taagan.
A full two years later, Pharaoh had a dream that he was standing beside the River Nile.
2 Oo bal eeg, waxaa webigii ka soo baxay toddoba sac oo quruxsan oo cayillan, oo waxay daaqeen cawskii dareemada ahaa.
He saw seven cows coming up from the river. They looked well-fed and healthy as they grazed among the reeds.
3 Markaasaa waxaa dabadood webigii ka soo baxay toddoba sac oo kale oo fool xun, oo weyd ahaa, oo waxay is-ag taageen sicihii kale oo webiga qarkiisa jooga.
Then he saw another seven cows that came up behind them. They looked ugly and skinny as they stood beside the other cows on the bank of the Nile.
4 Markaasaa sicihii foosha xumaa oo weydda ahaa waxay cuneen toddobadii sac oo qurxoonayd oo cayillanayd. Kolkaasuu Fircoon toosay.
Then the ugly, skinny cows ate the well-fed, healthy cows. Then Pharaoh woke up.
5 Markaasuu haddana seexday oo mar labaad riyooday, oo wuxuu arkay toddoba sabuul oo buurbuuran oo wanaagsan oo ka soo baxay isku jirid.
Pharaoh fell asleep again and had a second dream. Seven heads of grain were growing on one stalk, ripe and healthy.
6 Oo bal eeg, waxaa haddana ka soo daba baxay toddoba sabuul oo xunxun, oo ay dabayshii bari qallajisay.
Then seven heads of grain grew up after them, thin and dried by the east wind.
7 Markaasaa sabuulladii xunxumaa waxay liqeen toddobadii sabuul oo buurbuurnayd oo iltirnayd. Markaasuu Fircoon toosay, oo wuxuu arkay inay riyo tahay.
The seven thin and dried heads of grain swallowed up the ripe and healthy ones. Then Pharaoh woke up and realized he'd been dreaming.
8 Oo subaxdiina wuu dhibaataysnaa, kolkaasuu u cid diray oo uu u wada yeedhay saaxiriintii Masar oo dhan iyo nimankii xigmadda lahaa oo dhan; markaasaa Fircoon u sheegay riyadiisii; laakiin ma jirin mid Fircoon u fasiri karaa.
The next morning Pharaoh was worried by his dreams, so he sent for all the magicians and wise men in Egypt. Pharaoh told them about his dreams, but no one could interpret their meaning for him.
9 Markaasaa waxaa Fircoon la hadlay kii madaxa u ahaa kuwa khamriga siin jiray isaga, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Maantaan xusuustay dembiyadaydii.
But then the chief cupbearer spoke up. “Today I've just remembered a bad mistake I've made,” he explained.
10 Fircoonow, adigoo u cadhaysnaa addoommadaada, waxaad igu xabbistay guriga madaxa waardiyayaasha, oo waxaannu ahayn aniga iyo kii madaxa u ahaa kuwii wax dubi jiray;
“Your Majesty was angry with some of your officials and you imprisoned me in the house of the commander of the guard, along with the chief baker.
11 oo markaasaannu isku habeen riyoonnay, aniga iyo isagiiba; waxaannu ku riyoonnay midkayo kastaba sidii riyadiisii fasirkeedu ahaa.
We each had a dream. They were different dreams, each with its own meaning.
12 Oo halkaasna waxaa nala joogay nin dhallinyaro ah oo Cibraani ah, oo madaxa waardiyayaasha addoon u ahaa, markaasaannu isagii u sheegnay, oo isna wuu noo fasiray riyooyinkayagii, nin kastana sidii riyadiisu ahayd buu ugu fasiray.
A young Hebrew was there with us, a slave of the commander of the guard. When we told him our dreams, he interpreted for us the meaning of our different dreams.
13 Oo sidii uu noogu fasiray ayay noqotay. Aniga waxaa laygu soo celiyey meeshaydii, isagiina waa la deldelay.
Everything happened just as he said it would—I was given back my job and the baker was hanged.”
14 Dabadeedna Fircoon baa u cid diray oo u yeedhay Yuusuf. Markaasay dhaqso uga soo bixiyeen godxabsigii; kolkaasuu xiirtay, oo dharkiisii beddeshay, oo uu u soo galay Fircoon.
Pharaoh summoned Joseph, and they quickly brought him from the prison. After he'd shaved and changed his clothes, he was presented to Pharaoh.
15 Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu Yuusuf ku yidhi, Riyaan ku riyooday, mana jiro mid fasiri karaa; oo waxaan maqlay in markii aad riyo maqashid aad fasiri kartid.
Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I had a dream, but no one can interpret its meaning. But I've heard that when someone tells you a dream you know how to interpret it.”
16 Yuusufna Fircoon buu u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Taasu xaggayga ma aha, laakiinse Ilaah wuxuu Fircoon siin doonaa jawaab nabadeed.
“It's not me who can do this,” Joseph replied. “But God will explain its meaning to set Your Majesty's mind at rest.”
17 Markaasaa Fircoon Yuusuf la hadlay, oo yidhi, Waxaan riyadaydii ku arkay anigoo webiga qarkiisa taagan;
Pharaoh explained to Joseph, “In my dream I was standing on the bank of the Nile.
18 oo bal eeg, waxaa webigii ka soo baxay toddoba sac oo buurbuuran oo quruxsan oo waxay daaqeen cawskii dareemada ahaa;
I saw seven cows coming up from the river. They looked well-fed and healthy as they grazed among the reeds.
19 oo waxaa haddana ka soo daba baxay toddoba sac oo kale, oo taagdaran oo fool xun oo weyd ah. Weligay dhulka Masar oo dhan kuma aan arag kuwa sidooda u xun.
Then I saw another seven cows that came up behind them. They looked sickly and ugly and skinny—I've never seen such ugly cows in the whole of Egypt!
20 Markaasaa sicihii weydda ahaa oo foosha xumaa waxay cuneen toddobadii sac oo hore.
These skinny, ugly cows ate the first seven healthy-looking cows.
21 Oo markay cuneen lagama garan karin inay cuneen, laakiinse waxay u fool xumaayeen sidii markii hore. Markaasaan toosay.
But afterwards you couldn't tell they'd eaten them because they looked just as skinny and ugly as before. Then I woke up.
22 Oo waxaan kaloo riyadaydii ku arkay toddoba sabuul oo iltiran oo wanaagsan, oo ka soo baxay isku jirid;
Then I fell asleep again. In my second dream I saw seven heads of grain growing on one stalk, ripe and healthy.
23 dabadeedna waxaa ka soo daba baxay toddoba sabuul oo engegan oo xunxun oo dabayshii bari qallajisay.
Then seven heads of grain grew up after them, withered and thin and dried by the east wind.
24 Markaasaa sabuulladii xunxumaa waxay liqeen toddobadii sabuul oo wanaagsanayd; markaasaan u sheegay saaxiriinta, laakiinse ma uu jirin mid ii sheegi karay.
The seven thin heads of grain swallowed up the healthy ones. I told all this to the magicians, but none of them could explain its meaning to me.”
25 Oo Yuusuf wuxuu ku yidhi Fircoon, Riyadaadu waa mid, oo waxa Ilaah samaynayo ayuu kuu sheegay, Fircoonow.
“Pharaoh's dreams mean the same thing,” Joseph responded. “God is telling Pharaoh what he is going to do.
26 Toddobada sac oo wanwanaagsanu waa toddoba sannadood, toddobada sabuul oo wanwanaagsanuna waa toddoba sannadood; riyadu waa mid.
The seven good cows and the seven good heads of grain represent seven good years of harvest. The dreams mean the same thing.
27 Toddobada sac oo weyd ah oo foosha xun, oo ka soo daba baxay waa toddoba sannadood, oo haddana toddobada sabuul oo madhan, oo dabayshii bari qallajisay waxay noqon doonaan toddoba sannadood oo abaar ah.
The seven skinny and ugly cows that came after them and the seven thin heads of grain dried by the east wind represent seven years of famine.
28 Taasu waa wixii aan kugula hadlay, Fircoonow. Waxa Ilaah samaynayo ayuu ku tusay.
It's just as I told Your Majesty—God has shown Pharaoh what he is going to do.
29 Oo bal eeg, waxaa dalka Masar oo dhan imanaya toddoba sannadood oo barwaaqo ah,
There are going to be seven years with plenty of food produced throughout the whole country of Egypt.
30 oo dabadoodna waxaa dhici doona toddoba sannadood oo abaar ah; oo barwaaqadii oo dhanna waa laga illoobi doonaa dalka Masar, markaasay abaartu dhulka dhammayn doontaa,
But after them will come seven years of famine. People will forget the time when there was plenty of food throughout Egypt. Famine will ruin the country.
31 barwaaqadana dhulka laguma ogaan doono abaartaas ka dambaysa aawadeed, waayo, waxay noqon doontaa mid aad u xun.
The time of plenty will be completely forgotten because the famine that follows it will be so terrible.
32 Oo taas aawadeed riyadii labanlaab bay kuu noqotay, Fircoonow, maxaa yeelay, waxaas waxaa amray Ilaah, oo weliba Ilaah dhowaan buu samayn doonaa.
The fact that the dream was repeated twice means that it has definitely been decided by God, and that God is going to do this soon.
33 Haddaba Fircoonow, waxaad doontaa nin caqli iyo xigmad leh, oo u sarraysii dalka Masar oo dhan.
So Your Majesty should choose a man with insight and wisdom, and put him in charge of the whole country of Egypt.
34 Tan yeel oo waxaad doorataa niman dalka u sarreeya, oo waxa toddobada sannadood oo barwaaqada ah dhulka ka baxa inta shanaad ha ururiyeen.
Your Majesty should also appoint officials to be in charge of the land, and have them collect one-fifth of the produce of the country during the seven years of plenty.
35 Oo cuntada oo dhan sannadahan wanaagsan oo imanaya ha ururiyeen, hadhuudhkana ha kugu hoos kaydiyeen, Fircoonow, oo intay cunto ahaan magaalooyinka u dhigaan, ha ilaaliyeen.
They should collect all the food during the good years that are soon coming, and store the grain under Pharaoh's authority, keeping it under guard to provide food for the towns.
36 Cuntaduna kayd bay dalka u noqon doontaa toddobada sannadood oo abaarta ah oo ka dhici doonta dalka Masar, si aan dalku abaarta ugu baabbi'in.
This will be a food reserve for the country during the seven years of famine so that the people won't die of starvation.”
37 Waxaasuna Fircoon way la wanaagsanaayeen, isaga iyo addoommadiisiiba.
Pharaoh and all his officials thought Joseph's proposal was a good idea.
38 Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu addoommadiisii ku yidhi, Miyaynu heli karaynaa mid la mid ah kan, oo ah nin Ruuxa Ilaah ku jiro?
So Pharaoh asked them, “Where can we find a man like this who has the spirit of God in him?”
39 Markaasuu Fircoon wuxuu Yuusuf ku yidhi, Mar haddii Ilaah ku tusay waxyaalahan oo dhan, ma jiro mid sidaadoo kale caqli iyo xigmad u leh.
Then Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, telling him, “Since God has revealed to you all this, and there's no one like you with such insight and wisdom,
40 Adigu waxaad ka sarrayn doontaa gurigayga, dadkayga oo dhanna waxaa lagu xukumi doonaa si waafaqsan hadalkaaga, oo anigu carshiga oo keliya ayaan kaaga weynaan doonaa.
you will be in charge of all my affairs, and all my people will obey your orders. Only I with my status as king will be greater than you.”
41 Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu Yuusuf ku yidhi, Bal eeg, dalka Masar oo dhan ayaan kaa sarraysiiyey.
Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Look, I'm putting you in charge of the whole country of Egypt.”
42 Markaasuu Fircoon gacantiisa ka bixiyey kaatunkiisii, oo Yuusuf gacanta u geliyey, oo wuxuu u xidhay dhar aad u wanaagsan, silsilad dahab ahna qoortuu u sudhay;
Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his finger and put it on Joseph's finger. He dressed him in fine linen clothes and placed a golden chain around his neck.
43 oo wuxuu fuushiiyey gaadhifaraskii labaad oo uu lahaa, oo waxay hortiisa kaga qayliyeen, Sujuuda; oo wuxuu ka sarraysiiyey dalka Masar oo dhan.
He had Joseph ride in the chariot designated for his second-in-command while his attendants went ahead, shouting, “Bow down!” This is how Pharaoh gave Joseph authority over all of Egypt.
44 Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu Yuusuf ku yidhi, Anigu waxaan ahay Fircoon, oo adiga la'aantaa ninna gacantiisa ama cagtiisa kor uma qaadi doono dalka Masar oo dhan.
Then Pharaoh told Joseph, “I am Pharaoh, but without your permission nobody will lift a hand or a foot anywhere in the whole country.”
45 Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu Yuusuf magiciisii u bixiyey Saafnad Facneh, oo wuxuu u guuriyey Aasenad oo ahayd ina Footiiferac, wadaadkii Oon. Yuusufna markaasuu dalkii Masar oo dhan u baxay oo wada maray.
Pharaoh gave Joseph the name Zaphenath-paneah, and arranged for him to marry Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On. This is how Joseph rose to power over the whole of Egypt.
46 Yuusufna soddon sannadood buu jiray markuu hor istaagay Fircoon oo ahaa boqorkii Masar. Markaasaa Yuusuf Fircoon hortiisii ka tegey, oo wuxuu wada maray dalkii Masar oo dhan.
Joseph was thirty when he started working for Pharaoh, king of Egypt. After he had left Pharaoh, Joseph traveled on an inspection tour throughout Egypt.
47 Markaasaa toddobadii sannadood oo barwaaqada ahayd waxaa dhulkii ka soo baxay wax aad u badan.
During the seven years of good harvests, the land produced plenty of food.
48 Markaasuu ururiyey cuntadii toddobadii sannadood baxday oo dalka Masar oo dhan tiil, oo cuntadii wuxuu ku kaydiyey magaalooyinka. Cuntadii beerihii ku wareegsanaa magaalo kastana isku meel buu ku kaydiyey.
He collected all the food during the seven good years, and he stored the grain produced in the local fields in each town.
49 Markaasaa Yuusuf hadhuudh aad u badan wuxuu u kaydiyey sida cammuudda badda, ilaa uu tirintii daayay, maxaa yeelay, waxay ahayd wax aan tiro lahayn.
Joseph piled up so much grain that it was like the sand of the seashore. Eventually he stopped keeping records because there was just so much!
50 Oo Yuusuf waxaa u dhashay laba wiil intii aan sannaddii abaarta ahayd iman, oo waxaa u dhashay Aasenad oo ahayd ina Footiiferac, wadaadkii Oon.
It was during this time, before the years of famine came, that Joseph had two sons by Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On.
51 Markaasaa Yuusuf wuxuu curadkii magiciisii u bixiyey Manaseh; waayo, wuxuu yidhi, Ilaah waa i illowsiiyey dhibaatadaydii oo dhan, iyo gurigii aabbahay oo dhan.
Joseph named his firstborn Manasseh, because he said, “The Lord has made me forget all my troubles and all my father's family.”
52 Kii labaadna magiciisii wuxuu u bixiyey Efrayim. Waayo, wuxuu yidhi, Ilaah waa igu badiyey dalkii aan ku dhibtooday.
His second son he named Ephraim, because he said, “God has made me fruitful in the country of my misery.”
53 Markaasaa toddobadii sannadood oo barwaaqada ahayd ay dalkii Masar ka dhammaadeen.
The seven years of plenty in Egypt came to an end,
54 Oo waxaa bilaabatay toddobadii sannadood oo abaarta ahayd, sidii Yuusuf yidhi. Dalalkii oo dhanna abaar baa ka dhacday; laakiinse dalka Masar oo dhan cuntaa jirtay.
and the seven years of famine began, just as Joseph had said. There was famine in all the other countries but the whole of Egypt had food.
55 Oo markii dalkii Masar oo dhammu wada abaarsaday ayaa dadkii Fircoon cunto ugu qayliyeen. Markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu ku yidhi Masriyiintii oo dhan, Yuusuf u taga, oo wuxuu idin yidhaahdo yeela.
When all of Egypt was hungry, the people cried out to Pharaoh for food, and he told everyone, “Go and see Joseph and do whatever he tells you.”
56 Oo abaartuna waxay ka dhacday dhulka dushiisa oo dhan. Markaasaa Yuusuf wada furay maqsinnadii oo dhan, oo wuxuu hadhuudhkii ka iibiyey Masriyiintii, abaartuna aad bay ugu xumayd dalka Masar.
The famine had spread all over the country so Joseph opened all the storehouses and sold grain to the people of Egypt. The famine was very bad in Egypt,
57 Markaasaa dalalkii oo dhammu waxay u soo safreen Masar, oo Yuusuf bay ugu yimaadeen inay hadhuudh ka iibsadaan; maxaa yeelay, abaartu aad bay ugu xumayd dhulka oo dhan.
in fact the famine was very bad everywhere, so people from other countries all around came to Egypt to buy grain from Joseph.
