Genesis 41
1 At nangyari, sa katapusan ng dalawang taong ganap, na si Faraon ay nanaginip: at, narito, na siya'y nakatayo sa tabi ng ilog.
After two years, Pharaoh saw a dream. He thought himself to be standing above a river,
2 At, narito may nagsiahon sa ilog na pitong bakang magagandang anyo at matatabang laman; at nanginain sa talahiban.
from which ascended seven cows, exceedingly beautiful and stout. And they pastured in marshy places.
3 At, narito, na ibang pitong baka, na nagsiahon sa ilog na nasa likuran nila, mga pangit na anyo, at payat; at nagsihinto roon sa tabi ng mga unang baka, sa tabi ng ilog.
Likewise, another seven emerged from the river, filthy and thoroughly emaciated. And they pastured on the same bank of the river, in green places.
4 At ang pitong bakang magagandang anyo at matataba, ay nilamon ng mga bakang pangit ang anyo at payat. Sa gayo'y nagising si Faraon.
And they devoured those whose appearance and condition of body was so wonderful. Pharaoh, having been awakened,
5 At siya'y natulog at nanaginip na bilang ikalawa; at, narito may sumupling na pitong uhay na mabibintog at mabubuti, na may isa lamang tangkay.
slept again, and he saw another dream. Seven ears of grain sprung up on one stalk, full and well-formed.
6 At, narito, may pitong uhay na payat at tinutuyo ng hanging silanganan, na nagsitubong kasunod ng mga yaon.
Likewise, other ears of grain, of the same number, rose up, thin and struck with blight,
7 At nilamon ng mga uhay na payat ang pitong uhay na mabibintog at malulusog. At nagising si Faraon, at, narito, isang panaginip.
devouring all the beauty of the first. Pharaoh, when he awakened after his rest,
8 At nangyari, sa kinaumagahan, na ang kaniyang diwa ay nagulumihanan at siya'y nagsugo at kaniyang ipinatawag ang lahat ng mago sa Egipto, at ang lahat ng pantas doon: at isinaysay ni Faraon sa kanila ang kaniyang panaginip: datapuwa't walang makapagpaliwanag kay Faraon.
and when morning arrived, being terrified with fear, sent to all the interpreters of Egypt and to all of the wise men. And when they were summoned, he explained to them his dream; but there was no one who could interpret it.
9 Nang magkagayo'y nagsalita ang puno ng mga katiwala kay Faraon, na sinasabi, Naaalaala ko sa araw na ito ang aking mga sala:
Then at last the chief cupbearer, remembering, said, “I confess my sin.
10 Nguni't si Faraon laban sa kaniyang mga alila, at ibinilanggo ako sa bahay ng kapitan ng bantay, ako at ang puno ng mga magtitinapay.
The king, being angry with his servants, ordered me and the chief miller of grain to be forced into the prison of the leader of the military.
11 At nanaginip kami ng panaginip sa isang gabi, ako at siya: kami ay kapuwa nanaginip ayon sa kapaliwanagan ng panaginip ng isa't isa sa amin.
There, in one night, both of us saw a dream presaging the future.
12 At nandoong kasama namin ang isang binata, isang Hebreo, na alipin ng kapitan ng bantay; at siya naming pinagsaysayan, at kaniyang ipinaliwanag sa amin ang aming panaginip; ipinaliwanag niya ayon sa panaginip ng bawat isa sa amin.
In that place, there was a Hebrew, a servant of the same commander of the military, to whom we explained our dreams.
13 At nangyari, na kung paano ang kaniyang pagkapaliwanag sa amin, ay nagkagayon; ako'y pinabalik sa aking katungkulan, at ipinabitin ang isa.
Whatever we heard was proven afterwards by the event of the matter. For I was restored to my office, and he was suspended on a cross.”
14 Nang magkagayo'y nagsugo si Faraon at ipinatawag si Jose, at siya'y inilabas na madalian sa bilangguan: siya'y nagahit at nagbihis ng suot, at naparoon kay Faraon.
Immediately, by the king’s authority, Joseph was led out of prison, and they shaved him. And changing his apparel, they presented him to him.
15 At sinabi ni Faraon kay Jose, Ako'y nanaginip ng isang panaginip, at walang makapagpaliwanag: at nabalitaan kita, na pagkarinig mo ng isang panaginip ay naipaliwanag mo.
And he said to him, “I have seen dreams, and there is no one who can unfold them. I have heard that you are very wise at interpreting these.”
16 At sumagot si Jose kay Faraon, na sinasabi, Wala sa akin; Dios ang magbibigay ng sagot sa kapayapaan kay Faraon.
Joseph responded, “Apart from me, God will respond favorably to Pharaoh.”
17 At sinalita ni Faraon kay Jose, Sa aking panaginip ay narito, nakatayo ako sa tabi ng ilog:
Therefore, Pharaoh explained what he had seen: “I thought myself to be standing on the bank of a river,
18 At, narito, may nagsiahon sa ilog na pitong bakang matatabang laman at magagandang anyo, at nanginain sa talahiban:
and seven cows climbed up from the river, exceedingly beautiful and full of flesh. And they grazed in a pasture of a marshy greenery.
19 At, narito, may ibang pitong baka na nagsiahon sa likuran nila, mga payat, at napakapangit ang anyo, at payat na kailan ma'y hindi ako nakakita sa buong lupain ng Egipto ng ibang kawangis ng mga yaon sa kapangitan.
And behold, there followed after these, another seven cows, with such deformity and emaciation as I had never seen in the land of Egypt.
20 At kinain ng mga bakang payat at pangit, ang pitong nauunang bakang matataba:
These devoured and consumed the first,
21 At nang kanilang makain, ay hindi man lamang maalaman na sila'y kanilang nakain; kundi ang kanilang anyo ay pangit ding gaya ng una. Sa gayo'y nagising ako.
giving no indication of being full. But they remained in the same state of emaciation and squalor. Awakening, but being weighed down into sleep again,
22 At nakakita ako sa aking panaginip, at, narito, pitong uhay ay tumataas sa isang tangkay, mapipintog at mabubuti.
I saw a dream. Seven ears of grain sprang up on one stalk, full and very beautiful.
23 At, narito, may pitong uhay na lanta, mga pipi at tinutuyo ng hanging silanganan na nagsitaas na kasunod ng mga yaon:
Likewise, another seven, thin and struck with blight, rose up from the stalk.
24 At nilamon ng mga uhay na lanta ang pitong uhay na mabubuti: at aking isinaysay sa mga mago: datapuwa't walang makapagpahayag niyaon sa akin.
And they devoured the beauty of the first. I explained this dream to the interpreters, and there is no one who can unfold it.”
25 At sinabi ni Jose kay Faraon, Ang panaginip ni Faraon ay iisa; ang gagawin ng Dios ay ipinahayag kay Faraon:
Joseph responded: “The dream of the king is one. What God will do, he has revealed to Pharaoh.
26 Ang pitong bakang mabubuti ay pitong taon; at ang pitong uhay na mabubuti ay pitong taon; ang panaginip ay iisa.
The seven beautiful cows, and the seven full ears of grain, are seven years of abundance. And so the force of the dreams is understood to be the same.
27 At ang pitong bakang payat at mga pangit, na nagsiahong kasunod ng mga yaon ay pitong taon, at gayon din ang pitong uhay na tuyo, na pinapaspas ng hanging silanganan; kapuwa magiging pitong taong kagutom.
Likewise, the seven thin and emaciated cows, which ascended after them, and the seven thin ears of grain, which were struck with the burning wind, are seven approaching years of famine.
28 Iyan ang bagay na sinalita ko kay Faraon: ang gagawin ng Dios, ipinaalam kay Faraon.
These will be fulfilled in this order.
29 Narito, dumarating ang pitong taong may malaking kasaganaan sa buong lupain ng Egipto;
Behold, there will arrive seven years of great fertility throughout the entire land of Egypt.
30 At may dadating, pagkatapos ng mga iyan, na pitong taong kagutom; at malilimutan iyang buong kasaganaan sa lupain ng Egipto; at pupuksain ng kagutom ang lupain;
After this, there will follow another seven years, of such great barrenness that all the former abundance will be delivered into oblivion. For the famine will consume all the land,
31 At ang kasaganaan ay hindi malalaman sa lupain, dahil sa kagutom na sumusunod; sapagka't magiging napakahigpit.
and the greatness of this destitution will cause the greatness of the abundance to be lost.
32 At kaya't pinagibayo ang panaginip kay Faraon na makalawa, ay sapagka't bagay na itinatag ng Dios, at papangyayarihing madali ng Dios.
Now, as to what you saw the second time, it is a dream pertaining to the same thing. It is an indication of its firmness, because the word of God shall be done, and it shall be completed swiftly.
33 Ngayon nga'y humanap si Faraon ng isang taong matalino at pantas, at ilagay sa lupain ng Egipto.
Now therefore, let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and place him over the land of Egypt,
34 Gawing ganito ni Faraon, at maglagay ng mga tagapamahala sa lupain, na paglimahing bahagi ang lupain ng Egipto sa loob ng pitong taon ng kasaganaan.
so that he may appoint overseers throughout all the regions. And let a fifth part of the fruits, throughout the seven fertile years
35 At kanilang tipunin ang lahat ng pagkain nitong mabubuting taon na dumarating, at magkamalig ng trigo sa kapangyarihan ng kamay ni Faraon, na pinakapagkain sa mga bayan at ingatan.
that now have already begun to occur, be gathered into storehouses. And let all the grain be stored away, under the power of Pharaoh, and let it be kept in the cities.
36 At ang pagkain ay kamaligin na itaan sa lupain sa pitong taong kagutom na mangyayari sa lupain ng Egipto; upang huwag mapuksa ang lupain sa kagutom.
And let it be prepared for the future famine of seven years, which will oppress Egypt, and then the land will not be consumed by destitution.”
37 At ang bagay ay minabuti ng mga mata ni Faraon, at ng mga mata ng kaniyang mga lingkod.
The counsel pleased Pharaoh and all his ministers.
38 At sinabi ni Faraon sa kaniyang mga lingkod, Makakasumpong kaya tayo ng isang gaya nito, na taong kinakasihan ng espiritu ng Dios?
And he said to them, “Would we be able to find another such man, who is full of the Spirit of God?”
39 At sinabi ni Faraon kay Jose, Yamang ipinabatid sa iyo ng Dios: ang lahat ng ito, ay walang matalino o pantas na gaya mo:
Therefore, he said to Joseph: “Because God has revealed to you all that you have said, would I be able to find anyone wiser and as much like you?
40 Ikaw ay magpupuno sa aking bahay, at ayon sa iyong salita ay pamamahalaan mo ang aking buong bayan: sa luklukang hari lamang magiging mataas ako sa iyo.
You will be over my house, and to the authority of your mouth, all the people will show obedience. Only in one way, in the throne of the kingdom, will I go before you.”
41 At sinabi ni Faraon kay Jose, Tingnan mo, ikaw ay inilagay ko sa buong lupain ng Egipto.
And again, Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Behold, I have appointed you over the entire land of Egypt.”
42 At inalis ni Faraon sa kamay niya ang kaniyang tandang singsing at inilagay sa kamay ni Jose, at siya'y sinuutan ng magandang lino at nilagyan siya ng isang kuwintas na ginto sa palibot ng kaniyang leeg;
And he took the ring from his own hand, and he gave it into his hand. And he clothed him with a robe of fine linen, and he placed a necklace of gold around his neck.
43 At siya'y pinasakay niya sa ikalawang karro na tinatangkilik ni Faraon at isinisigaw sa unahan niya. Lumuhod kayo: at inihalal siya na puno sa buong lupain ng Egipto.
And he caused him to ascend upon his second swift chariot, with the herald proclaiming that everyone should bend their knee before him, and that they should know that he was governor over the entire land of Egypt.
44 At sinabi ni Faraon kay Jose, Ako'y si Faraon, at kung wala ka ay hindi magtataas ang sinomang tao ng kaniyang kamay o ng kaniyang paa sa buong lupain ng Egipto.
Likewise, the king said to Joseph: “I am Pharaoh: apart from your authority, no one will move hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.”
45 At pinanganlan ni Faraon si Jose na Zaphnath-paanea, at ibinigay na asawa sa kaniya si Asenath, na anak ni Potiphera, na saserdote sa On. At lumabas si Jose, sa lupain ng Egipto.
And he changed his name and called him, in the Egyptian tongue: ‘Savior of the world.’ And he gave him as a wife, Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of Heliopolis. And so Joseph went out into the land of Egypt.
46 At si Jose ay may tatlong pung taon nang tumayo sa harap ni Faraon na hari sa Egipto. At si Jose ay umalis sa harap ni Faraon, at nilibot ang buong lupain ng Egipto.
(Now he was thirty years old when he stood in the sight of king Pharaoh.) And he traveled throughout the regions of Egypt.
47 At sa pitong taong sagana ay nagdulot ang lupa ng sagana.
And the fertility of the seven years arrived. And when the grain fields were reduced to sheaves, these were gathered into the storehouses of Egypt.
48 At tinipon ni Jose ang lahat na pagkain sa pitong taon na tinamo sa lupain ng Egipto: at inimbak ang nangasabing pagkain sa mga bayan; na ang pagkain sa bukid na nasa palibot ng bawa't bayan ay inimbak sa bawa't kinauukulan ding bayan.
And now all the abundance of grain was stored away in every city.
49 At si Jose ay nagkamalig ng trigo na parang buhangin sa dagat, na napakarami hanggang sa hindi nabilang; sapagka't walang bilang.
And there was such a great abundance of wheat that it was comparable to the sands of the sea, and its bounty exceeded all measure.
50 At bago dumating ang taong kagutom ay ipinanganak kay Jose ang dalawang lalake, na ipinanganak sa kaniya ni Asenath na anak ni Potiphera, na saserdote sa On.
Then, before the famine arrived, Joseph had two sons born, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of Heliopolis, bore for him.
51 At tinawag ni Jose ang pangalan ng panganay na Manases, sapagka't aniya'y, Ipinalimot ng Dios sa akin ang lahat ng aking kapagalan at ang buong bahay ng aking ama.
And he called the name of the firstborn Manasseh, saying, “God has caused me to forget all my labors and the house of my father.”
52 At ang ipinangalan sa ikalawa ay Ephraim: Sapagka't ako'y pinalago ng Dios sa lupain ng aking kadalamhatian.
Likewise, he named the second Ephraim, saying, “God has caused me to increase in the land of my poverty.”
53 At ang pitong taon ng kasaganaan na nagkaroon sa lupain ng Egipto ay natapos.
And so, when the seven years of fertility that occurred in Egypt had passed,
54 At ang pitong taon ng kagutom ay nagpasimulang dumating, ayon sa sinabi ni Jose: at nagkagutom sa lahat ng lupain; datapuwa't sa buong lupain ng Egipto ay may tinapay.
the seven years of destitution, which Joseph had predicted, began to arrive. And the famine prevailed throughout the whole world, but there was bread in all the land of Egypt.
55 At nang ang buong lupain ng Egipto ay magutom, ay dumaing ng tinapay ang bayan kay Faraon: at sinabi ni Faraon sa lahat ng mga Egipcio, Pumaroon kayo kay Jose; ang kaniyang sabihin sa inyo ay inyong gawin.
And being hungry, the people cried out to Pharaoh, asking for provisions. And he said to them: “Go to Joseph. And do whatever he will tell you.”
56 At ang kagutom ay nasa ibabaw ng buong lupa: at binuksan ni Jose ang lahat ng kamalig at nagbili sa mga Egipcio; at lumala ang kagutom sa lupain ng Egipto.
Then the famine increased daily in all the land. And Joseph opened all of the storehouses and sold to the Egyptians. For the famine had oppressed them also.
57 At lahat ng mga taga ibang lupain ay nagsiparoon kay Jose upang magsibili ng trigo; sapagka't lumala ang kagutom sa buong lupa.
And all the provinces came to Egypt, to buy food and to temper the misfortune of their destitution.
