Genesis 40

1 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.

Pripetilo se je po teh stvareh, da sta točaj egiptovskega kralja in njegov pek užalila njunega gospoda, egiptovskega kralja.

2 And Pharao was wroth with his two eunuchs, with his chief cupbearer, and with his chief baker.

Faraon je bil ogorčen zoper dva izmed svojih častnikov, zoper šefa točajev in zoper šefa pekov.

3 And he put them in ward, into the prison, into the place whereinto Joseph had been led.

Zaprl ju je v hišo poveljnika straže, v ječo, kraj, kjer je bil zvezan Jožef.

4 And the chief keeper of the prison committed them to Joseph, and he stood by them; and they were [some] days in the prison.

Poveljnik straže je Jožefa zadolžil z njima in ta jima je stregel in [neko] razdobje sta ostala v ječi.

5 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.

Sanjala sta oba izmed njiju, vsak človek svoje sanje v isti noči, vsak človek glede na razlago svojih sanj, točaj in pek egiptovskega kralja, ki sta bila zvezana v ječi.

6 Joseph went in to them in the morning, and saw them, and they had been troubled.

Jožef je zjutraj prišel k njima, pogledal nanju in glej, bila sta žalostna.

7 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?

Vprašal je faraonova častnika, ki sta bila z njim v ječi hiše njegovega gospodarja, rekoč: »Zakaj sta danes videti tako žalostna?«

8 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.

Odgovorila sta mu: »Sanjala sva sanje, pa ni nobenega razlagalca le-teh.« Jožef jima je rekel: » Ali razlage ne pripadajo Bogu? Povejta mi jih, prosim vaju.«

9 And the chief cupbearer related his dream to Joseph, and said, In my dream a vine was before me.

Glavni točaj je svoje sanje povedal Jožefu in mu rekel: »V mojih sanjah, glej, je bil pred menoj vinski trs,

10 And in the vine [were] three stems; and it budding shot forth blossoms; the clusters of grapes were ripe.

in na vinskem trsu so bile tri mladike in te so bile kakor bi vzbrstele in bi njihovo cvetje poganjalo in bi njihovi šopi obrodili zrelo grozdje.

11 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.

V moji roki je bila faraonova čaša in vzel sem grozdje ter ga stisnil v faraonovo čašo in čašo podal v faraonovo roko.«

12 And Joseph said to him, This is the interpretation of it. The three stems are three days.

Jožef mu je rekel: »To je razlaga: ›Tri mladike so trije dnevi.

13 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.

Že v treh dneh bo faraon povzdignil tvojo glavo in te ponovno postavil na tvoje mesto in faraonovo čašo boš po prejšnji navadi, ko si bil njegov točaj, izročal v njegovo roko.‹

14 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.

Toda pomisli name, ko bo dobro s teboj in mi izkaži prijaznost, prosim te in me omeni faraonu in me privedi iz te hiše,

15 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.

kajti zares sem bil ukraden proč iz hebrejske dežele in tudi tukaj nisem storil ničesar, da bi me vtaknili v grajsko ječo.«

16 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.

Ko je glavni pek videl, da je bila razlaga dobra, je Jožefu rekel: »Tudi jaz sem bil v svojih sanjah in glej, na svoji glavi sem imel tri bele košare.

17 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.

V najvišji košari je bilo vse vrste pekovskih izdelkov za faraona in ptice so jih jedle iz košare na moji glavi.«

18 And Joseph answered and said to him, This is the interpretation of it; The three baskets are three days.

Jožef je odgovoril in rekel: »To je njihova razlaga: ›Tri košare so trije dnevi.

19 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.

Že v treh dneh bo faraon vzdignil tvojo glavo iz tebe in te obesil na drevo in ptice bodo iz tebe jedle tvoje meso.‹«

20 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.

Pripetilo se je tretji dan, ki je bil faraonov rojstni dan, da je priredil gostijo vsem svojim služabnikom in med svojimi služabniki povzdignil glavo glavnega točaja in glavnega peka.

21 And he restored the chief cupbearer to his office, and he gave the cup into Pharao's hand.

Glavnega točaja je ponovno vrnil v njegovo točajstvo in čašo je podajal v faraonovo roko,

22 And he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph, interpreted to them.

toda glavnega peka je obesil, kakor jima je Jožef razložil.

23 Yet did not the chief cupbearer remember Joseph, but forgot him.

Vendar se glavni točaj ni spomnil Jožefa, temveč je nanj pozabil.
