Suencuek 41
1 Te phoeiah om tih kum a thok tue vaengah Pharaoh loh mang a man tih sokko taengah ana pai.
And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed, and behold, he stood by the river.
2 Te vaengah vaito pumrhih, a mueimae sakthen neh a pum aka toitup te sokko lamkah lawt halo tih capu ding ah luem uh.
And behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fine-looking and fat-fleshed, and they fed in the reed-grass.
3 Amih hnukah a mueimae thae tih a pum aka cangkhawk vaito pumrhih te khaw sokko lamkah lawt ha thoeng bal tih sokko kaeng kah vaito kaepah pai uh.
And behold, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, bad-looking and lean-fleshed, and stood by the kine on the bank of the river.
4 Tedae a mueimae thae tih a pum aka cangkhawk vaito pumrhih loh a mueimae sakthen neh aka toitup vaito te a caak uh, vaengah Pharaoh haenghang.
And the kine that were bad-looking and lean-fleshed ate up the seven kine that were fine-looking and fat. And Pharaoh awoke.
5 Te phoeiah ip tih a pabae la mang a man hatah cangvuei thamkom neh aka then parhih te a cangkong pakhat dongah tarha vuei.
And he slept and dreamed the second time; and behold, seven ears of corn grew up on one stalk, fat and good.
6 Te phoeiah aka om cangvuei thamyit parhih te tah a hnukah kanghawn loh a yah tih a hum sak.
And behold, seven ears, thin and parched with the east wind, sprung up after them.
7 Tedae cangvuei thamyit parhih loh cangvuei thamkom neh cangtak te a yoop vaengah Pharaoh haenghang hatah a mang la pawk.
And the thin ears devoured the seven fat and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke; and behold, it was a dream.
8 Te dongah mincang a pha vaengah tah a mueihla a cahoeh. Egypt hmayuep boeih neh aka cueih boeih te khaw a tah tih a khue. Tedae Pharaoh loh amih taengah a mang te a thui hatah Pharaoh ham aka thuicaih thai om pawh.
And it came to pass in the morning, that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the scribes of Egypt, and all the sages who were therein, and Pharaoh told them his dream; but [there was] none to interpret them to Pharaoh.
9 Te daengah tuitul mangpa loh Pharaoh taengah, “Tihnin ah ni kamah tholh te ka poek.
Then spoke the chief of the cup-bearers to Pharaoh, saying, I remember mine offences this day.
10 Pharaoh loh a sal rhoek taengah a thintoek tih kai neh buh thong mangpa te imtawt mangpa kah im thongim la n'khoh.
Pharaoh was wroth with his bondmen, and put me in custody into the captain of the life-guard's house, me and the chief of the bakers.
11 Tedae hlaem pakhat ah kai khaw anih khaw mang ka man rhoi hatah mang thuingaihnah te rhirha aka om te ka man rhoi.
And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each according to the interpretation of his dream.
12 Te vaengah imtawt mangpa kah sal, Hebrew cadong te kaimih taengah om. Te dongah anih ham ka thui pah rhoi dongah kaimih rhoi kah mang te kaimih rhoi ham a thuicaih. Hlang kah a mang khaw a thuicaih.
And there was there with us a Hebrew youth, a bondman of the captain of the life-guard, to whom we told [them], and he interpreted to us our dreams; to each he interpreted according to his dream.
13 Kaimih rhoi taengah a thuicaih vanbangla om tih a thoeng dongah kai he ka hmuen koep han khueh vaengah anih te a kuiok sak,” a ti nah tih a thui pah.
And it came to pass, just as he interpreted to us, so it came about: me has he restored to my office, and him he hanged.
14 Te dongah Pharaoh loh Joseph te a tah tih khue sak vanbangla anih te tangrhom khui lamkah koe a doek uh tih sam a vok, himbai a tho phoeiah Pharaoh taengla cet.
Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph; and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. And he shaved [himself], and changed his clothes, and came in to Pharaoh.
15 Te vaengah Pharaoh loh Joseph la, “Mang ka man tih aka thuicaih a om pawt vaengah aka thuicaih ham nang loh mang na yakming a ti tih nang kawng te ka yaak,” a ti nah.
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have dreamt a dream, and there is none to interpret it. And I have heard say of thee, thou understandest a dream to interpret it.
16 Tedae Joseph loh Pharaoh te a doo tih, “Kai moenih, Pharaoh te Pathen loh ngaimongnah neh doo bitni,” a ti nah.
And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.
17 Te dongah Pharaoh loh Joseph te, “Ka mang ah sokko kaeng la ka pai. dae,
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood on the bank of the river.
18 Tedae vaito a pumsa aka toitup tih a suisak sakthen pumrhih te sokko lamkah lawt halo tih capu ding ah luem uh.
And behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fat-fleshed and of fine form, and they fed in the reed-grass.
19 Amih hnukah vaito a tloe pumrhih halo bal dae tattloel la a suisak khaw bahoeng thae tih a pum pim. Tetla thaenah tah Egypt kho tom ah ka hmu pawh.
And behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor, and very ill-formed, and lean-fleshed — such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness.
20 Te vaengah vaito aka pim neh a thae pumrhih loh lamhma kah vaito aka tha rhoek te a caak uh.
And the lean and bad kine ate up the seven first fat kine;
21 Tedae amih ko khuila a kun uh thuk lalah a moecuek vaengkah bangla a mueimae a thae dongah amih ko khuila a kun uh te thui la a hut pawt vaengah ka haenghang.
and they came into their belly, and it could not be known that they had come into their belly; and their look was bad, as at the beginning. And I awoke.
22 Te phoeikah ka mang ah khaw cangvuei thamkom neh a then thamrhih te a cangkong pakhat dongah ha thoeng te lawt ka hmuh.
And I saw in my dream, and behold, seven ears came up on one stalk, full and good.
23 Amih hnukkah cangvuei parih thamyit neh aka rhae, kanghawn loh a yah tih aka hum te tarha halo van.
And behold, seven ears, withered, thin, parched with the east wind, sprung up after them;
24 Te vaengah cangvuei aka yit rhoek loh cangvuei a then thamrhih te a dolh dongah hmayuep rhoek ham ka thui pah dae kai taengah aka puen om pawh,” a ti nah.
and the thin ears devoured the seven good ears. And I told it to the scribes; but there was none to make it known to me.
25 Te dongah Joseph loh Pharaoh la, “Pharaoh kah a mang he pakhat ni. Pathen loh a saii te Pharaoh taengah a phoe coeng.
And Joseph said to Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God will do he has made known to Pharaoh.
26 Vaito aka then pumrhih khaw kum rhih la om tih cangvuei a then parhih kum rih la om tih a mang te pakhat ni.
The seven fine kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one.
27 Amih hnukah aka thoeng vaito pumrhih aka pim tih aka thae te khaw kum rhih la om tih, cangvuei aka hi tih kanghawn loh a hum sak parhih te khokha kum rhih ni.
And the seven lean and bad kine that came up after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears, parched with the east wind, will be seven years of famine.
28 Pharaoh taengah kan thui vanbangla Pathen loh a saii hno he Pharaoh a tueng coeng.
This is the word which I have spoken to Pharaoh: what God is about to do he has let Pharaoh see.
29 Aka lo ham kum rhih te Egypt kho tom ah khobuh khungdaeng ni te.
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout the land of Egypt.
30 Tedae a hnukah khokha kum rhih pai vetih Egypt kho kah khobuh te boeih a hnilh. Te vaengah khohmuen khaw khokha loh a khah ni.
And there will arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine will waste away the land.
31 Te dongah a hnuk lamtah khokha bahoeng nah tih khobuh te vang khui loh ming mahpawh.
And the plenty will not be known afterwards in the land by reason of that famine; for it will be very grievous.
32 Pharaoh taengah a pabalae la mang a rhaep he khaw Pathen taeng lamloh olka a cikngae sak dongah Pathen loh tlek a saii ni.
And as regards the double repetition of the dream to Pharaoh, it is that the thing is established by God, and God will hasten to do it.
33 Te dongah Pharaoh loh, aka yakming tih aka cueih hlang te so lamtah anih te Egypt kho ah khueh laeh saeh.
And now let Pharaoh look himself out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
34 Khohmuen ah hlangtawt rhoek te Pharaoh loh tuek saeh lamtah khobuh kum kumrhih khuiah Egypt kho kah panga pakhat aka coi la om saeh.
Let Pharaoh do [this]: let him appoint overseers over the land, and take the fifth part of the land of Egypt during the seven years of plenty,
35 Te daengah ni kum then a pai vaengkah caak boeih te a coi uh eh. Te phoeiah Pharaoh kut hmuiah cangpai a tung uh vetih khopuei ah caak khaw a cuem eh.
and let them gather all the food of these coming good years, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, for food in the cities, and keep [it].
36 Kho kah hnokhueh dongah caak a om daengah ni khokha loh Egypt khokhui la kum kumrhih a om halo vaengah khohmuen te khokha loh a tulnoi pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
And let the food be as store for the land for the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt, that the land perish not through the famine.
37 Tekah olka ngawn tah Pharaoh mik neh a sal rhoek boeih kah mik ah a thuem sak.
And the word was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his bondmen.
38 Te dongah Pharaoh loh a sal rhoek la, “Hekah hlang bangla a khuiah Pathen mueihla aka om te m'hmuh noek nim?,” a ti nah.
And Pharaoh said to his bondmen, Shall we find [one] as this, a man in whom the Spirit of God is?
39 Te dongah Pharaoh loh Joseph la, “Hekah boeih he Pathen loh nang m'ming sak dongah nang bangla aka thuep neh aka cueih he om pawh.
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Since God has made all this known to thee, there is none [so] discreet and wise as thou.
40 Kai im ah nang om lamtah nang kah olpaek te ka pilnam boeih loh ngai saeh. Ka ngolkhoel bueng nen mah nang lakah ka ham mai eh,” a ti nah.
Thou shalt be over my house, and according to thy commandment shall all my people regulate themselves; only concerning the throne will I be greater than thou.
41 Te phoeiah Pharaoh loh Joseph la, “So lah, Egypt kho pum kah a soah nang ni kan hut sak coeng,” a ti nah.
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.
42 Pharaoh loh a kut dongkah a kutcaeng te a dul tih Joseph kah kut ah a buen pah. Hnitang himbai neh a khuk phoeiah a rhawn ah sui oi a oi sak.
And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it on Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in clothes of byssus, and put a gold chain on his neck.
43 Leng dongah khaw a hnukthoi la a ngol sak tih, “Anih hmai ah cungkueng uh,” hlo a phoek uh tih Egypt kho boeih kah a soah Joseph te a khueh.
And he caused him to ride in the second chariot that he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee! and he set him over all the land of Egypt.
44 Te phoeiah Pharaoh loh Joseph la, “Kai he Pharaoh coeng dae nang muehah hlang loh a kut khaw a kho khaw Egypt kho tom ah thueng boel saeh,” a ti nah.
And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I am Pharaoh; and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.
45 Joseph ming khaw Pharaoh loh Zephenathpaneah la a khue tih a yuu la Oni khosoih Potiphera canu Asenath te a paek. Te phoeiah Joseph loh Egypt kho tom a hil.
And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnath-paaneah, and gave him as wife Asnath the daughter of Potipherah the priest in On. And Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.
46 Egypt manghai Pharaoh taengla a kun vaengah Joseph te kum sawmthum lo ca pueng. Tedae Pharaoh mikhmuh lamloh Joseph nong tih Egypt kho tom boeih a hil.
And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from Pharaoh, and passed through the whole land of Egypt.
47 Te phoeiah khobuhnah kum rhih khuiah tah khohmuen te kutvang long khaw a thaih sak.
And in the seven years of plenty the land brought forth by handfuls.
48 Te dongah Egypt kho kah aka thoeng kho kum rhih kah caak boeih te a coi tih khopuei boeih ah caak a tung. Khopuei kaepvai kah khohmuen cang khaw a khui ah a khueh.
And he gathered up all the food of the seven years that was in the land of Egypt, and put the food in the cities; the food of the fields of the city, which were round about it, he laid up in it.
49 Joseph loh cang a tung vaengah tuitunli kah laivin bangla muep a yet dongah a loeng tloel tih a tae ham khaw a toeng.
And Joseph laid up corn as sand of the sea exceeding much, until they left off numbering; for it was without number.
50 Khokha kum halo hlanah Oni khosoih Potiphera canu Asenath loh ca a cun pah tih Joseph loh capa panit a sak.
And to Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asnath the daughter of Potipherah the priest in On bore to him.

And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh — For God has made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house.

And the name of the second he called Ephraim — For God has caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.
53 Tedae Egypt kho ah khobuh kum rhih aka om te bawt.
And the seven years of plenty that were in the land of Egypt were ended;
54 Joseph loh a thui vanbangla aka lo ham khokha kum rhih a tong dongah paeng tom ah khokha om coeng dae Egypt kho pum ah caak om pueng.
and the seven years of the dearth began to come, according as Joseph had said. And there was dearth in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
55 Tedae Egypt kho kho boeih loh a lamlum van vaengah tah pilnam loh caak ham ham te Pharaoh taengla pang uh. Te dongah Pharaoh loh Egypt rhoek boeih te, “Joseph taengla cet uh lamtah nangmih taengah a thui bangla saii uh,” a ti nah.
And all the land of Egypt suffered from the dearth. And the people cried to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, Go to Joseph: what he says to you, that do.
56 Khokha loh diklai hman boeih te a pha vaengah a kho khuikah aka om cangpai boeih te Joseph loh a hlah tih Egypt rhoek ham a yoih pah dongah Egypt kho kah khokha te a noeng.
And the famine was on all the earth. And Joseph opened every place in which there was [provision], and sold grain to the Egyptians; and the famine was grievous in the land of Egypt.

And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph, to buy [grain], because the famine was grievous on the whole earth.
