1 Mose 40
1 Mmerɛ tiawa bi akyiri no, ɛbaa sɛ Misraimhene Farao nsãhyɛfoɔ panin ne ne burodotofoɔ panin fom no.
And it came to pass after these things, that the chief cupbearer of the king of Egypt and the chief baker trespassed against their lord the king of Egypt.
2 Farao bo fuu ne nsãhyɛfoɔ panin no ne ne burodotofoɔ panin no yie.
And Pharao was wroth with his two eunuchs, with his chief cupbearer, and with his chief baker.
3 Enti, ɔde wɔn too afiase wɔ ɔwɛmfoɔ panin Potifar no fie, baabi korɔ no ara a wɔde Yosef kɔtoeɛ hɔ.
And he put them in ward, into the prison, into the place whereinto Joseph had been led.
4 Ɔwɛmfoɔ panin Potifar de wɔn hyɛɛ Yosef nsa sɛ, ɔnhwɛ na ɔnyɛ deɛ ɛhia wɔn nyinaa mma wɔn. Wɔdaa afiase hɔ kyɛɛ kakraa no,
And the chief keeper of the prison committed them to Joseph, and he stood by them; and they were [some] days in the prison.
5 nnipa baanu no nyinaa a na wɔyɛ ɔhene Farao burodotofoɔ panin ne nsãhyɛfoɔ panin a na wɔgu afiase hɔ no sosoo daeɛ anadwo korɔ no ara. Na saa daeɛ mmienu no mu biara wɔ ne nkyerɛaseɛ.
And they both had a dream in one night; and the vision of the dream of the chief cupbearer and chief baker, who belonged to the king of Egypt, who were in the prison, was this.
6 Adeɛ kyeeɛ a Yosef baa nneduafoɔ baanu no nkyɛn no, ɔhunuu sɛ wɔn nyinaa ayeyɛ mosomosoo.
Joseph went in to them in the morning, and saw them, and they had been troubled.
7 Enti, ɔbisaa Farao fie mpanimfoɔ nneduafoɔ a na wɔne no gu afiase hɔ no sɛ, “Adɛn enti na ɛnnɛ deɛ, mo werɛ aho mo ho sɛɛ?”
And he asked the eunuchs of Pharao who were with him in the prison with his master, saying, Why is it that your countenances are sad to-day?
8 Nneduafoɔ no buaa Yosef sɛ, “Anadwo yi, yɛn baanu nyinaa sosoo daeɛ, nanso yɛnnya obiara wɔ ha nkyerɛ yɛn aseɛ.” Yosef nso ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Ɛwom sɛ Onyankopɔn na ɔkyerɛ daeɛ ase deɛ, nanso monka mo daeɛ a mososoeɛ no nkyerɛ me.”
And they said to him, We have seen a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said to them, Is not the interpretation of them through god? tell [them] than to me.
9 Enti, Farao nsãhyɛfoɔ panin no dii ɛkan kaa ne daeɛ a ɔsoeɛ no kyerɛɛ Yosef sɛ, “Me daeɛ mu no, mehunuu bobe dua.
And the chief cupbearer related his dream to Joseph, and said, In my dream a vine was before me.
10 Na saa bobe dua no apan mman mmiɛnsa. Ɛguu nhyerɛnne, hyehyɛeɛ, nyiniiɛ, yɛɛ siaka bereeɛ.
And in the vine [were] three stems; and it budding shot forth blossoms; the clusters of grapes were ripe.
11 Na mekura ɔhene Farao nsã kuruwa. Metetee bobe aba no, kyikyi guu ɔhene Farao nsã kuruwa no mu, de maa no sɛ ɔnnom.”
And the cup of Pharao was in my hand; and I took the bunch of grapes, and squeezed it into the cup, and gave the cup into Pharao's hand.
12 Yosef ka kyerɛɛ nsãhyɛfoɔ panin deduani no sɛ, “Wo daeɛ no ase nie: mman mmiɛnsa a wohunuiɛ no kyerɛ nnansa.
And Joseph said to him, This is the interpretation of it. The three stems are three days.
13 Nnansa ntam no, Farao bɛyi wo, ama woakɔdi wo dibea sɛ ɔhene nsãhyɛfoɔ panin. Na wode Farao kuruwa bɛhyɛ ne nsa sɛdeɛ na woyɛ no kane no.
Yet three days and Pharao shall remember thy office, and he shall restore thee to thy place of chief cupbearer, and thou shalt give the cup of Pharao into his hand, according to thy former high place, as thou wast wont to be cupbearer.
14 Na sɛ ɛsi wo yie a, kae me. Mesrɛ wo, ɛyɛ a, ka me ho asɛm kyerɛ ɔhene Farao, na ɔmma wɔmmɛyi me mfiri afiase ha.
But remember me of thyself, when it shall be well with thee, and thou shalt deal mercifully with me, and thou shalt make mention of me to Pharao, and thou shalt bring me forth out of this dungeon.
15 Ɛfiri sɛ, nokorɛ ni, manyɛ bɔne biara na wɔkyeree me firii me manfoɔ Hebrifoɔ asase so de mebaa ha. Na ɛha nso mpo a meda yi, manyɛ afɔdisɛm biara a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔgyina so de me to afiase.”
For surely I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here I have done nothing, but they have cast me into this pit.
16 Ɛberɛ a burodotofoɔ panin deduani no hunuu sɛ Yosef akyerɛ nsãhyɛfoɔ panin no daeɛ no ase, ama atɔ asom no, ɔka kyerɛɛ Yosef sɛ, “Me nso, mesoo daeɛ bi. Me daeɛ no mu, na mesoso nkɛntɛn mmiɛnsa a burodo gugu mu.
And the chief baker saw that he interpreted aright; and he said to Joseph, I also saw a dream, and methought I took up on my head three baskets of mealy food.
17 Kɛntɛn a ɛsi ɛsoro pɛɛ no, na nnuane ahodoɔ a wɔato a mede rekɔma Farao gu mu a na nnomaa sisi aduane no so wɔ mʼatifi, redi.”
And in the upper basket there was the work of the baker of every kind which Pharao eats; and the fowls of the air ate them out of the basket that was on my head.
18 Yosef ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Wo daeɛ a wosoeɛ no asekyerɛ ni. Nkɛntɛn mmiɛnsa no gyina hɔ ma nnansa.
And Joseph answered and said to him, This is the interpretation of it; The three baskets are three days.
19 Nnansa ntam no, Farao bɛma wɔabɛyi wo afiri afiase ha, atwa wo ti, de wo kuntunsini no akɔsɛn dua so, ama nnomaa asosɔ wo ɛnam.”
Yet three days, and Pharao shall take away thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree, and the birds of the sky shall eat thy flesh from off thee.
20 Ne nnansa so no, na Farao redi nʼawoda. Enti, ɔtoo ɛpono kɛseɛ bi maa ne mpanimfoɔ ne ne fiefoɔ nyinaa. Ɔsoma ma wɔkɔyii ne burodotofoɔ panin ne ne nsãhyɛfoɔ panin nneduafoɔ no firii afiase hɔ baa nʼanim.
And it came to pass on the third day that it was Pharao's birth-day, and he made a banquet for all his servants, and he remembered the office of the cupbearer and the office of the baker in the midst of his servants.
21 Ɔhene Farao sane de ne nsãhyɛfoɔ panin no sii ne siberɛ, ma ɔhyɛɛ ɔhene Farao nsã.
And he restored the chief cupbearer to his office, and he gave the cup into Pharao's hand.
22 Nanso, ne burodotofoɔ panin no deɛ, Farao ma wɔkɔsɛn no sɛdeɛ Yosef kyerɛɛ ne daeɛ no ase kyerɛɛ no no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
And he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph, interpreted to them.
23 Nsãhyɛfoɔ panin no nso werɛ firii Yosef a wankae no koraa.
Yet did not the chief cupbearer remember Joseph, but forgot him.
