Genesis 40
1 Kò pẹ́ lẹ́yìn èyí, ni agbọ́tí ọba àti alásè rẹ̀ ṣẹ̀ ọba Ejibiti, olúwa wọn.
And it comes to pass, after these things—the butler of the king of Egypt and the baker have sinned against their lord, against the king of Egypt;
2 Farao sì bínú sí méjì nínú àwọn ìjòyè rẹ̀, olórí agbọ́tí àti olórí alásè,
and Pharaoh is angry against his two eunuchs, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers,
3 Ó sì fi wọ́n sí ìhámọ́ ní ilé olórí ẹ̀ṣọ́, ní inú ẹ̀wọ̀n ibi tí Josẹfu pẹ̀lú wà.
and puts them in confinement in the house of the chief of the executioners, into the round-house, the place where Joseph [is] a prisoner,
4 Olórí ẹ̀ṣọ́ sì yan Josẹfu láti máa ṣe ìránṣẹ́ wọn. Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n ti wà ní ìhámọ́ fún ìgbà díẹ̀.
and the chief of the executioners charges Joseph with them, and he serves them; and they are in confinement [for some] days.
5 Ni ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan àwọn ọkùnrin méjèèjì náà—olórí agbọ́tí àti olórí alásè ọba Ejibiti, tí a dè sínú túbú, lá àlá ní òru kan náà, àlá kọ̀ọ̀kan sì ní ìtumọ̀ tirẹ̀.
And they dream a dream both of them, each his dream in one night, each according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker whom the king of Egypt has, who [are] prisoners in the round-house.
6 Nígbà tí Josẹfu dé ọ̀dọ̀ wọn ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, ó ṣe àkíyèsí pé, inú wọn kò dùn.
And Joseph comes to them in the morning, and sees them, and behold, they [are] morose;
7 Ó sì bi àwọn ìjòyè Farao tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ nínú ìhámọ́, nínú ilé olúwa rẹ̀ léèrè pé, “Èéṣe tí ojú yín fi fàro bẹ́ẹ̀ ní òní, tí inú yín kò sì dùn?”
and he asks Pharaoh’s eunuchs who [are] with him in confinement in the house of his lord, saying, “Why [are] your faces sad today?”
8 Wọ́n wí pé, “Àwa méjèèjì ni a lá àlá, kò sì sí ẹni tí yóò túmọ̀ rẹ̀.” Josẹfu sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ọlọ́run nìkan ni ó ni ìtumọ̀. Ẹ sọ àwọn àlá yín fún mi.”
And they say to him, “We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it”; and Joseph says to them, “Are interpretations not with God? Please recount to me.”
9 Olórí agbọ́tí sì ṣọ́ àlá rẹ̀ fún Josẹfu, wí pé, “Ní ojú àlá mi, mo rí àjàrà kan (tí wọn ń fi èso rẹ̀ ṣe wáìnì) níwájú mi,
And the chief of the butlers recounts his dream to Joseph and says to him, “In my dream, then behold, a vine [is] before me!
10 mo sì rí ẹ̀ka mẹ́ta lórí àjàrà náà, ó yọ ẹ̀ka tuntun, ó sì tanná, láìpẹ́, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní í ní èso tí ó ti pọ́n.
And in the vine [are] three branches, and it [is] as it were flourishing; gone up has its blossom, its clusters have ripened grapes;
11 Ife Farao sì wà lọ́wọ́ mi, mo sì mú àwọn èso àjàrà náà, mo sì fún un sínú ife Farao, mo sì gbé ife náà fún Farao.”
and Pharaoh’s cup [is] in my hand, and I take the grapes and press them into the cup of Pharaoh, and I give the cup into the hand of Pharaoh.”
12 Josẹfu wí fún un pé, “Èyí ni ìtumọ̀ àlá rẹ. Ẹ̀ka mẹ́ta náà dúró fún ọjọ́ mẹ́ta.
And Joseph says to him, “This [is] its interpretation: the three branches are three days;
13 Láàrín ọjọ́ mẹ́ta Farao yóò mú ọ jáde nínú ẹ̀wọ̀n padà sí ipò rẹ, ìwọ yóò sì tún máa gbé ọtí fún un, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìṣe rẹ àtẹ̀yìnwá.
yet, within three days Pharaoh lifts up your head, and has put you back on your station, and you have given the cup of Pharaoh into his hand, according to the former custom when you were his butler.
14 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ohun gbogbo bá dára fún ọ, rántí mi kí o sì fi àánú hàn sí mi. Dárúkọ mi fún Farao, kí o sì mú mi jáde kúrò ní ìhín.
Surely if you have remembered me with you, when it is well with you, and have please done kindness with me, and have made mention of me to Pharaoh, then you have brought me out from this house,
15 Nítorí á jí mi gbé tà kúrò ní ilẹ̀ àwọn Heberu ni, àti pé níhìn-ín èmi kò ṣe ohunkóhun tí ó fi yẹ kí èmi wà ní ìhámọ́ bí mo ti wà yìí.”
for I was really stolen from the land of the Hebrews; and here also I have done nothing that they have put me in the pit [for].”
16 Nígbà tí olórí alásè rí i wí pé ìtumọ̀ tí Josẹfu fún àlá náà dára, ó wí fún Josẹfu pé, “Èmi pẹ̀lú lá àlá, mo ru agbọ̀n oúnjẹ mẹ́ta lórí.
And the chief of the bakers sees that he has interpreted good, and he says to Joseph, “I also [am] in a dream, and behold, three baskets of white bread [are] on my head,
17 Nínú agbọ̀n tí ó wà lókè, onírúurú oúnjẹ ló wà níbẹ̀ fún Farao, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ẹyẹ sì ń ṣà wọ́n jẹ láti inú apẹ̀rẹ̀ náà tí ó wà lórí mi.”
and in the highest basket [are] of all [kinds] of Pharaoh’s food, work of a baker; and the birds are eating them out of the basket, from off my head.”
18 Josẹfu dáhùn, “Èyí ni ìtumọ̀ àlá rẹ. Agbọ̀n mẹ́ta náà túmọ̀ sí ọjọ́ mẹ́ta.
And Joseph answers and says, “This [is] its interpretation: the three baskets are three days;
19 Láàrín ọjọ́ mẹ́ta, Farao yóò tú ọ sílẹ̀, yóò sì bẹ́ orí rẹ, yóò sì gbé ara rẹ kọ́ sí orí igi. Àwọn ẹyẹ yóò sì jẹ ara rẹ.”
yet, within three days Pharaoh lifts up your head from off you, and has hanged you on a tree, and the birds have eaten your flesh from off you.”
20 Ọjọ́ kẹta sì jẹ́ ọjọ́ ìbí Farao, ó sì ṣe àsè fún gbogbo àwọn ìjòyè e rẹ̀. Ó sì mú olórí agbọ́tí àti olórí alásè jáde kúrò nínú ẹ̀wọ̀n.
And it comes to pass, on the third day, Pharaoh’s birthday, that he makes a banquet to all his servants, and lifts up the head of the chief of the butlers, and the head of the chief of the bakers among his servants,
21 Ó dá olórí agbọ́tí padà sí ipò tí ó wà tẹ́lẹ̀, kí ó ba à le máa fi ago lé Farao ní ọwọ́,
and he puts back the chief of the butlers to his butlership, and he gives the cup into the hand of Pharaoh;
22 ṣùgbọ́n, ó so olórí alásè kọ́ sórí igi, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Josẹfu ti sọ fún wọn nínú ìtumọ̀ rẹ̀ sí àlá wọn.
and the chief of the bakers he has hanged, as Joseph has interpreted to them;
23 Ṣùgbọ́n, olórí agbọ́tí kò rántí Josẹfu mọ́, kò tilẹ̀ ronú nípa rẹ̀.
and the chief of the butlers has not remembered Joseph, but forgets him.
