< تكوين 40 >

وَاتَّفَقَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ سَاقِيَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ وَالْخَبَّازَ أَذْنَبَا إِلَى سَيِّدِهِمَا مَلِكِ مِصْرَ، ١ 1
After these things, the butler of the king of Egypt [Abode of slavery] and his baker offended their lord, the king of Egypt [Abode of slavery].
فَسَخَطَ فِرْعَوْنُ عَلَى خَصِيَّيْهِ: رَئِيسِ السُّقَاةِ وَرَئِيسِ الْخَبَّازِينَ، ٢ 2
Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cup bearer and the chief baker.
وَزَجَّهُمَا فِي مُعْتَقَلِ بَيْتِ رَئِيسِ الْحَرَسِ فِي السِّجْنِ، فِي الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي كَانَ يُوسُفُ مَحْبُوساً فِيهِ. ٣ 3
He put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph [May he add] was bound.
فَوَلَّى رَئِيسُ الْحَرَسِ يُوسُفَ أَمْرَهُمَا، فَقَامَ عَلَى خِدْمَتِهِمَا، فَمَكَثَا فِي الْمُعْتَقَلِ أَيَّاماً. ٤ 4
The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph [May he add], and he took care of them. They stayed in prison many days.
وَحَلُمَ كُلٌّ مِنْ سَاقِي مَلِكِ مِصْرَ وَخَبَّازِهِ الْمُعْتَقَلَيْنِ فِي السِّجْنِ حُلْماً فِي لَيْلَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ. وَكَانَ لِحُلْمِ كُلٍّ مِنْهُمَا مَعْنَاهُ الْخَاصُّ بِصَاحِبِهِ. ٥ 5
They both dreamed a dream, each man his dream, in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the cup bearer and the baker of the king of Egypt [Abode of slavery], who were bound in the prison.
فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِمَا يُوسُفُ فِي الصَّبَاحِ فَوَجَدَهُمَا مُكْتَئِبَيْنِ. ٦ 6
Joseph [May he add] came in to them in the morning, and saw them, and saw that they were sad.
فَسَأَلَهُمَا: «لِمَاذَا وَجْهَاكُمَا مَكْمَدَّانِ فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ؟» ٧ 7
He asked Pharaoh’s officers who were with him in custody in his master’s house, saying, “Why do you look so sad today?”
فَأَجَابَاهُ: «حَلُمَ كُلٌّ مِنَّا حُلْماً وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُفَسِّرُهُ». فَقَالَ يُوسُفُ: «أَلَيْسَتْ تَفَاسِيرُ الأَحْلاَمِ لِلهِ؟ حَدِّثَانِي بِهِمَا». ٨ 8
They said to him, “We have dreamed a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it.” Joseph [May he add] said to them, “Don’t interpretations belong to God? Please tell it to me.”
فَسَرَدَ رَئِيسُ السُّقَاةِ حُلْمَهُ عَلَى يُوسُفَ. قَالَ: «رَأَيْتُ فِي حُلْمِي وَإِذَا كَرْمَةٌ أَمَامِي، ٩ 9
The chief cup bearer told his dream to Joseph [May he add], and said to him, “In my dream, behold, a vine was in front of me,
فِيهَا ثَلاَثَةُ أَغْصَانٍ أَفْرَخَتْ ثُمَّ أَزْهَرَتْ، وَمَا لَبِثَتْ عَنَاقِيدُهَا أَنْ أَثْمَرَتْ عِنَباً نَاضِجاً. ١٠ 10
and in the vine were three branches. It was as though it budded, it blossomed, and its clusters produced ripe grapes.
وَكَانَتْ كَأْسُ فِرْعَوْنَ فِي يَدِي، فَتَنَاوَلْتُ الْعِنَبَ وَعَصَرْتُهُ فِي كَأْسِ فِرْعَوْنَ وَوَضَعْتُ الْكَأْسَ فِي يَدِهِ». ١١ 11
Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh’s cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaoh’s hand.”
فَقَالَ لَهُ يُوسُفُ: «إِلَيْكَ تَفْسِيرَهُ: الثَّلاَثَةُ أَغْصَانٍ هِيَ ثَلاَثَةُ أَيَّامٍ. ١٢ 12
Joseph [May he add] said to him, “This is its interpretation: the three branches are three days.
بَعْدَ ثَلاَثَةِ أَيَّامٍ يَرْضَى عَنْكَ فِرْعَوْنُ، وَيَرُدُّكَ إِلَى مَنْزِلَتِكَ حَيْثُ تُنَاوِلُ فِرْعَوْنَ كَأْسَهُ، تَمَاماً كَمَا كُنْتَ مُعْتَاداً أَنْ تَفْعَلَ عِنْدَمَا كُنْتَ سَاقِيَهُ. ١٣ 13
Within three more days, Pharaoh will lift up your head, and restore you to your office. You will give Pharaoh’s cup into his hand, the way you did before his judgement, when you were his cup bearer.
إِنَّمَا إِذَا أَصَابَكَ خَيْرٌ فَاذْكُرْنِي وَأَحْسِنْ إِلَيَّ. اذْكُرْنِي لَدَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَأَخْرِجْنِي مِنْ هَذَا السِّجْنِ، ١٤ 14
But remember me when it will be well with you, and please show cheshed ·loving-kindness· to me, and make mention of me to Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house.
لأَنَّنِي حُمِلْتُ عَنْوَةً مِنْ أَرْضِ الْعِبْرَانِيِّينَ، وَهُنَا أَيْضاً لَمْ أَجْنِ شَيْئاً لِيَزُجُّوا بِي فِي هَذَا السِّجْنِ». ١٥ 15
For indeed, I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.”
وَعِنْدَمَا رَأَى رَئِيسُ الْخَبَّازِينَ أَنَّ يُوسُفَ أَحْسَنَ التَّفْسِيرَ، قَالَ لَهُ: «رَأَيْتُ أَنَا أَيْضاً حُلْماً، وَإِذَا بِثَلاَثَةِ سِلاَلٍ بَيْضَاءَ عَلَى رَأْسِي. ١٦ 16
When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph [May he add], “I also was in my dream, and behold, three baskets of white bread were on my head.
وَكَانَ السَّلُّ الأَعْلَى مَلِيئاً مِنْ طَعَامِ فِرْعَوْنَ مِمَّا يُعِدُّهُ الْخَبَّازُ، إِلاَّ أَنَّ الطُّيُورَ كَانَتْ تَلْتَهِمُهُ مِنَ السَّلِّ الَّذِي عَلَى رَأْسِي». ١٧ 17
In the uppermost basket there were all kinds of baked food for Pharaoh, and the birds ate them out of the basket on my head.”
فَقَالَ يُوسُفُ: «إِلَيْكَ تَفْسِيرَهُ: الثَّلاَثَةُ السِّلاَلُ هِيَ ثَلاَثَةُ أَيَّامٍ ١٨ 18
Joseph [May he add] answered, “This is its interpretation. The three baskets are three days.
بَعْدَ ثَلاَثَةِ أَيَّامٍ يَقْطَعُ فِرْعَوْنُ رَأْسَكَ وَيُعَلِّقُكَ عَلَى خَشَبَةٍ فَتَأْكُلُ الطُّيُورُ لَحْمَكَ». ١٩ 19
Within three more days, Pharaoh will lift up your head from off you, and will hang you on a tree; and the birds will eat your flesh from off you.”
وَكَانَ الْيَوْمُ الثَّالِثُ هُوَ يَوْمُ عِيدِ مِيلاَدِ فِرْعَوْنَ، فَأَقَامَ مَأْدُبَةً لِجَمِيعِ رِجَالِهِ، وَأَحْضَرَ مِنَ السِّجْنِ رَئِيسَ السُّقَاةِ وَرَئِيسَ الْخَبَّازِينَ أَمَامَهُمْ. ٢٠ 20
On the third day, which was Pharaoh’s birthday, he made a feast for all his servants, and he lifted up the head of the chief cup bearer and the head of the chief baker among his servants.
وَرَدَّ رَئِيسَ السُّقَاةِ إِلَى عَمَلِهِ، فَصَارَ يُقَدِّمُ الْكَأْسَ لِيَدِ فِرْعَوْنَ. ٢١ 21
He restored the chief cup bearer to his position again, and he gave the cup into Pharaoh’s hand;
أَمَّا رَئِيسُ الْخَبَّازِينَ فَقَدْ عَلَّقَهُ (عَلَى خَشَبَةٍ) مِثْلَمَا فَسَّرَ لَهُمَا يُوسُفُ حُلْمَيْهِمَا. ٢٢ 22
but he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph [May he add] had interpreted to them.
وَلَكِنَّ رَئِيسَ السُّقَاةِ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ يُوسُفَ بَلْ نَسِيَهُ. ٢٣ 23
Yet the chief cup bearer didn’t remember Joseph [May he add], but forgot him.
