1 Mojzes 41
1 Pripetilo se je ob koncu dveh polnih let, da je faraon sanjal in glej, stal je poleg reke.
After two years Pharao had a dream. He thought he stood by the river,
2 Glej, iz vode je prišlo sedem krav, lepega videza in debelega mesa in hranile so se na travniku.
Out of which came up seven kine, very beautiful and fat: and they fed in marshy places.
3 Glej, za njimi je iz reke prišlo sedem drugih krav, bolnega videza in suhega mesa in so obstale poleg drugih krav na bregu reke.
Other seven also came up out of the river, ill favoured, and leanfleshed: and they fed on the very bank of the river, in green places:
4 Krave bolnega videza in suhega mesa so pojedle sedem krav lepega in obilnega videza. Tako se je faraon prebudil.
And they devoured them, whose bodies were very beautiful and well conditioned. So Pharao awoke.
5 Zaspal je in drugič sanjal in glej, sedem žitnih klasov je vzklilo na enem steblu, bujnih in dobrih.
He slept again, and dreamed another dream: Seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk full and fair:
6 Glej, za njimi je zraslo sedem tankih klasov in ožganih z vzhodnikom.
Then seven other ears sprung up thin and blasted,
7 Sedem tankih klasov je požrlo sedem bujnih in polnih klasov. Faraon se je prebudil in glej, bile so sanje.
And devoured all the beauty of the former. Pharao awaked after his rest:
8 Pripetilo se je zjutraj, da je bil njegov duh vznemirjen in poslal je ter dal poklicati vse tamkajšnje egiptovske čarovnike in vse modre može in faraon jim je povedal svoje sanje, toda nikogar ni bilo, ki bi jih faraonu lahko razložil.
And when morning was come, being struck with fear, he sent to all the interpreters of Egypt, and to all the wise men: and they being called for, he told them his dream, and there was not any one that could interpret it.
9 Potem je faraonu spregovoril glavni točaj, rekoč: »Ta dan se spominjam svojih krivd.
Then at length the chief butler remembering, said: I confess my sin:
10 Faraon je bil ogorčen nad svojima služabnikoma in me zaprl pod stražo v hišo poveljnika straže, oba, mene in glavnega peka
The king being angry with his servants, commanded me and the chief baker to be cast into the prison of the captain of the soldiers:
11 in sanjala sva sanje v eni noči, jaz in on. Sanjala sva vsak glede na razlago svojih sanj.
Where in one night both of us dreamed a dream foreboding things to come.
12 Tam je bil z nama mladenič, Hebrejec, služabnik poveljnika straže in povedala sva mu in razložil nama je najine sanje. Razložil je vsakemu človeku glede na njegove sanje.
There was there a young man a Hebrew, servant to the same captain of the soldiers: to whom we told our dreams,
13 Pripetilo se je, kakor nama jih je razložil, tako je bilo. Mene je ponovno vrnil v mojo službo, njega pa je obesil.«
And we heard what afterwards the event of the thing proved to be so. For I was restored to my office: and he was hanged upon a gibbet.
14 Tedaj je faraon poslal in poklical Jožefa in naglo so ga privedli iz grajske ječe in obril se je ter zamenjal svoja oblačila in prišel k faraonu.
Forthwith at the king’s command, Joseph was brought out of the prison, and they shaved him, and changing his apparel, brought him in to him.
15 Faraon je rekel Jožefu: »Sanjal sem sanje in nikogar ni, ki bi jih lahko razložil. O tebi pa sem slišal govoriti, da lahko razumeš sanje, da jih razložiš.«
And he said to him: I have dreamed dreams, and there is no one that can expound them: Now I have heard that thou art very wise at interpreting them.
16 Jožef je faraonu odgovoril, rekoč: » To ni v meni. Bog bo dal faraonu odgovor miru.«
Joseph answered: Without me, God shall give Pharao a prosperous answer.
17 Faraon je Jožefu rekel: »V svojih sanjah, glej, sem stal na bregu reke
So Pharao told what he had dreamed: Methought I stood upon the bank of the river,
18 in glej, iz reke je prišlo sedem krav, debelega mesa in lepega videza in hranile so se na travniku.
And seven kine came up out of the river exceeding beautiful and full of flesh: and they grazed on green places in a marshy pasture.
19 In glej, sedem drugih krav je prišlo gor za njimi, mršavih in bolnega videza in suhega mesa, kakršnih po slabosti nisem še nikoli videl v vsej egiptovski deželi
And behold, there followed these, other seven kine, so very ill favoured and lean, that I never saw the like in the land of Egypt:
20 in krave suhega in bolnega videza so pojedle prvih sedem obilnih krav.
And they devoured and consumed the former,
21 Ko so jih pojedle, se ni moglo vedeti, da so jih pojedle, temveč so bile še vedno bolnega videza, kakor poprej. Tako sem se prebudil.
And yet gave no mark of their being full: but were as lean and ill favoured as before. I awoke, and then fell asleep again,
22 In v svojih sanjah sem videl, in glej, sedem klasov je vzbrstelo na enem steblu, polnih in dobrih
And dreamed a dream: Seven ears of corn grew upon one stalk, full and very fair.
23 in glej, sedem klasov, izsušenih, tankih in ožganih z vzhodnikom, je pognalo za njimi.
Other seven also thin and blasted, sprung of the stock:
24 Tanki klasi so požrli sedem dobrih klasov in to sem povedal čarovnikom, toda nikogar ni bilo, ki bi mi jih lahko razodel.«
And they devoured the beauty of the former: I told this dream to the conjecturers, and there is no man that can expound it.
25 Jožef je rekel faraonu: »Faraonove sanje so ene. Bog je faraonu pokazal, kaj namerava storiti.
Joseph answered: The king’s dream is one: God hath shewn to Pharao what he is about to do.
26 Sedem dobrih krav je sedem let in sedem dobrih klasov je sedem let. Sanje so ene.
The seven beautiful kine, and the seven full ears, are seven years of plenty: and both contain the same meaning of the dream.
27 In sedem krav suhega in bolnega videza, ki bodo prišle za njimi, je sedem let in sedem praznih klasov, ožganih z vzhodnikom, bo sedem let lakote.
And the seven lean and thin kine that came up after them, and the seven thin ears that were blasted with the burning wind, are seven years of famine to come:
28 To je stvar, ki sem jo povedal faraonu: ›Kar Bog namerava storiti, je pokazal faraonu.
Which shall be fulfilled in this order:
29 Glej, pride sedem let velikega obilja po vsej egiptovski deželi.
Behold, there shall come seven years of great plenty in the whole land of Egypt:
30 Za temi pa se bo dvignilo sedem let lakote in vse obilje v egiptovski deželi bo pozabljeno in lakota bo použila deželo.
After which shall follow other seven years of so great scarcity, that all the abundance before shall be forgotten: for the famine shall consume all the land,
31 Obilje v deželi se ne bo poznalo zaradi razloga lakote, ki bo sledila, kajti ta bo zelo boleča.
And the greatness of the scarcity shall destroy the greatness of the plenty.
32 Zaradi tega so se sanje faraonu ponovile dvakrat. To je, ker je stvar osnovana od Boga in jo bo Bog kmalu izpolnil.
And for that thou didst see the second time a dream pertaining to the same thing: it is a token of the certainty, and that the word of God cometh to pass, and is fulfilled speedily.
33 Zdaj naj torej faraon poišče razumnega in modrega moža ter ga postavi nad egiptovsko deželo.
Now therefore let the king provide a wise and industrious man, and make him ruler over the land of Egypt:
34 Naj faraon to stori in naj določi častnike nad deželo in naj v sedmih obilnih letih poberejo petino v egiptovski deželi.
That he may appoint overseers over all the countries: and gather into barns the fifth part of the fruits, during the seven fruitful years,
35 Naj zberejo vso hrano tistih dobrih let, ki pridejo in žito prihranijo pod faraonovo roko in naj hrano čuvajo v mestih.
That shall now presently ensue: and let all the corn be laid up under Pharao’s hands and be reserved in the cities.
36 Ta hrana bo deželi za zalogo zoper sedem let lakote, ki bo v egiptovski deželi, da dežela zaradi lakote ne bo propadla.‹«
And let it be in readiness, against the famine of seven years to come, which shall oppress Egypt, and the land shall not be consumed with scarcity.
37 Stvar je bila dobra v faraonovih očeh in v očeh vseh njegovih služabnikov.
The counsel pleased Pharao and all his servants.
38 Faraon je rekel svojim služabnikom: »Ali lahko najdemo takšnega kakor je ta, moža, v katerem je Božji Duh?«
And he said to them: Can we find such another man, that is full of the spirit of God?
39 Faraon je rekel Jožefu: »Ker ti je Bog pokazal vse to, ne obstaja nihče tako razumen in moder, kakor si ti.
He said therefore to Joseph: Seeing God hath shewn thee all that thou hast said, can I find one wiser and one like unto thee?
40 Ti boš nad mojo hišo in glede na tvojo besedo bo vladano vsemu mojemu ljudstvu, samo v prestolu bom večji kakor ti.«
Thou shalt be over my house, and at the commandment of thy mouth all the people shall obey: only in the kingly throne will I be above thee.
41 Faraon je rekel Jožefu: »Glej, postavil sem te nad vso egiptovsko deželo.«
And again Pharao said to Joseph: Behold, I have appointed thee over the whole land of Egypt.
42 Faraon je iz svoje roke snel svoj prstan, ga dal na Jožefovo roko, ga oblekel v suknje iz tankega lanenega platna in okoli njegovega vratu obesil zlato verižico,
And he took his ring from his own hand, and gave it into his hand: and he put upon him a robe of silk, and put a chain of gold about his neck.
43 in pripravil ga je, da se pelje v drugem bojnem vozu, ki ga je imel in pred njim so klicali: »Upognite koleno.« In postavil ga je za vladarja nad vso egiptovsko deželo.
And he made him go up into his second chariot, the crier proclaiming that all should bow their knee before him, and that they should know he was made governor over the whole land of Egypt.
44 Faraon je Jožefu rekel: »Jaz sem faraon in brez tebe noben človek ne bo dvignil svoje roke ali stopala po vsej egiptovski deželi.«
And the king said to Joseph: I am Pharao; without thy commandment no man shall move hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.
45 Faraon je Jožefovo ime imenoval Cafenát Panéah in mu dal za ženo Asenáto, hčer Potifêra, duhovnika iz Ona. In Jožef je odšel nad vso egiptovsko deželo.
And he turned his name, and called him in the Egyptian tongue, The saviour of the world. And he gave him to wife Aseneth the daughter of Putiphare priest of Heliopolis. Then Joseph went out to the land of Egypt:
46 Jožef je bil star trideset let, ko je stal pred faraonom, egiptovskim kraljem. In Jožef je odšel izpred faraonove prisotnosti in šel skozi vso egiptovsko deželo.
(Now he was thirty years old when he stood before king Pharao) and he went round all the countries of Egypt.
47 V sedmih obilnih letih je zemlja obrodila v obilju.
And the fruitfulness of the seven years came: and the corn being bound up into sheaves was gathered together into the barns of Egypt.
48 Zbral je vso hrano sedmih let, ki je bila v egiptovski deželi in hrano shranil v mestih, hrano polja, ki je bila naokoli vsakega mesta, je shranil v istem.
And all the abundance of grain was laid up in every city.
49 Jožef je zbral žita kakor morskega peska, zelo veliko, dokler ni prenehal šteti, kajti tega je bilo brez števila.
And there was so great abundance of wheat, that it was equal to the sand of the sea, and the plenty exceeded measure.
50 Preden je prišla lakota, sta bila Jožefu rojena dva sinova, ki mu ju je rodila Asenáta, hči Potifêra, duhovnika iz Ona.
And before the famine came, Joseph had two sons born: whom Aseneth the daughter of Putiphare priest of Heliopolis bore unto him.
51 Jožef je ime prvorojenega imenoval Manáse, »Kajti Bog, « je rekel, »me je pripravil pozabiti vse moje garanje in vso hišo mojega očeta.«
And he called the name of the firstborn Manasses, saying: God hath made me to forget all my labours, and my father’s house.
52 Ime drugega je imenoval Efrájim: »Kajti Bog mi je storil, da bom rodoviten v deželi svoje stiske.«
And he named the second Ephraim, saying: God hath made me to grow in the land of my poverty.
53 Sedem let obilja, ki je bilo v egiptovski deželi, je bilo končanih.
Now when the seven years of the plenty that had been in Egypt were past:
54 Začelo je prihajati sedem let pomanjkanja, glede na to, kakor je rekel Jožef in pomanjkanje je bilo po vseh deželah, toda v egiptovski deželi je bil kruh.
The seven years of scarcity, which Joseph had foretold, began to come: and the famine prevailed in the whole world, but there was bread in all the land of Egypt.
55 Ko je bila vsa egiptovska dežela izstradana, je ljudstvo vpilo k faraonu za kruh, faraon pa je vsem Egipčanom rekel: »Pojdite k Jožefu; kar vam reče, storite.«
And when there also they began to be famished, the people cried to Pharao for food. And he said to them: Go to Joseph: and do all that he shall say to you.
56 Lakota je bila nad vsem obličjem zemlje in Jožef je odprl vsa skladišča in prodajal Egipčanom in lakota je v egiptovski deželi hudo naraščala.
And the famine increased daily in all the land: and Joseph opened all the barns, and sold to the Egyptians: for the famine had oppressed them also.
57 Vse dežele so prišle v Egipt k Jožefu, da kupijo žito, zato ker je bila lakota tako huda v vseh deželah.
And all provinces came into Egypt, to buy food, and to seek some relief of their want.
