< Genesis 41 >

1 And two yeeres after, Pharaoh also dreamed, and beholde, he stoode by a riuer,
Pea hili ʻae taʻu kotoa ʻe ua, pea pehē, naʻe misi ʻa Felo: pea vakai naʻe tuʻu ia ʻi he veʻe vaitafe.
2 And loe, there came out of the riuer seuen goodly kine and fatfleshed, and they fedde in a medowe:
Pea vakai, naʻe ʻalu hake mei he vaitafe ʻae fanga pulu ʻe fitu naʻe matamatalelei mo sino lahi; pea nau kai ʻi he ngoue mohuku.
3 And loe, seuen other kine came vp after the out of the riuer, euill fauoured and leane fleshed, and stoode by the other kine vpon the brinke of the riuer.
Pea vakai naʻe ʻalu hake ʻo muimui ʻi ai ʻae fanga pulu matamata kehe ʻe fitu, naʻe matamata kovi mo tutue lahi, pea nau tutuʻu ʻo ofi ki he fanga pulu kehe ʻi he veʻe vaitafe.
4 And the euilfauoured and leane fleshed kine did eate vp the seuen welfauoured and fatte kine: so Pharaoh awoke.
Pea ko e fanga pulu matamata kovi mo tutue, naʻa nau kai ʻo ʻosi ʻae fanga pulu matamatalelei, mo sino lahi. Pea ʻā ai ʻa Felo.
5 Againe he slept, and dreamed the second time: and beholde, seuen eares of corne grewe vpon one stalke, ranke and goodly.
Pea toe mohe ia, pea misi ia ko hono tuʻo ua; pea vakai, naʻe tupu hake ʻae fua koane ʻe fitu ʻi he kau pe taha, naʻe lahi mo lelei.
6 And loe, seuen thinne eares, and blasted with the east winde, sprang vp after them:
Pea vakai, naʻe tupu hake ʻo muimui ʻi ai ʻae fua koane ʻe fitu, naʻe kekena mo mate ʻi he matangi hahake.
7 And the thinne eares deuoured the seuen ranke and full eares. then Pharaoh awaked, and loe, it was a dreame.
Pea ko e fua vaivai ʻe fitu, naʻa nau kai ʻo ʻosi ʻae fua ʻe fitu naʻe mālohi mo lelei. Pea; ʻā ai ʻa Felo, pea vakai, ko e misi pe ia.
8 Nowe when the morning came, his spirit was troubled: therefore he sent and called all the soothsayers of Egypt, and all the wise men thereof, and Pharaoh tolde them his dreames: but none coulde interprete them to Pharaoh.
Pea pongipongi hake ai, naʻe mamahi pe hono laumālie; pea fekau ʻe ia ke ui ʻae kau fiemana kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite, pea mo e kau tangata poto kotoa pē ʻi ai: pea fakahā ʻe Felo ʻene misi kiate kinautolu; ka naʻe ʻikai ha taha ke ne faʻa fakahā hono ʻuhinga kia Felo.
9 Then spake the chiefe butler vnto Pharaoh, saying, I call to minde my faultes this day.
Pea lea ai ʻae tauhi lahi kia Felo, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ou manatu ki heʻeku ngaahi hala he ʻaho ni;
10 Pharaoh being angrie with his seruantes, put me in ward in the chiefe stewards house, both me and the chiefe baker.
Naʻe tuputāmaki ʻa Felo ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, pea ne tuku au ke fakapōpulaʻi, ki he fale ʻoe ʻeiki ʻoe kau leʻo, ʻa au mo e tangata taʻo mā.
11 Then we dreamed a dreame in one night, both I, and he: we dreamed eche man according to the interpretation of his dreame.
Pea naʻa ma misi ʻae misi ʻi he pō pe taha, ko au mo ia; naʻa ma misi ʻae tangata taki taha ʻo fakatatau ki hono ʻuhinga ʻo ʻene misi.
12 And there was with vs a yong man, an Ebrew, seruant vnto the chiefe steward, whome when we told, he declared our dreames to vs, to euery one he declared according to his dreame.
Pea naʻa mau ʻi ai mo e talavou ko e Hepelū, ko e tamaioʻeiki ki he ʻeiki ʻoe kau leʻo; pea ma fakahā kiate ia, pea ne fakahā kiate kimaua hono ʻuhinga ʻoe ma misi, ki he tangata taki taha naʻa ne fakahā hono ʻuhinga ʻo ʻene misi.
13 And as he declared vnto vs, so it came to passe: for he restored me to mine office, and hanged him.
Pea naʻe hoko ia, ʻo hangē ko e meʻa naʻa ne fakahā; naʻa ne toe tuku au ki heʻeku ngāue, pea ne tautau ia.”
14 Then sent Pharaoh, and called Ioseph, and they brought him hastily out of prison, and he shaued him, and chaunged his rayment, and came to Pharaoh.
Pea fekau leva ʻe Felo ke ui mai Siosefa, pea naʻa nau fakatoʻotoʻo ʻo ʻomi ia mei he fale fakapōpula; pea naʻa ne tele kava, pea fetongi hono kofu, pea haʻu ia kia Felo.
15 Then Pharaoh sayde to Ioseph, I haue dreamed a dreame, and no man can interprete it, and I haue hearde say of thee, that when thou hearest a dreame, thou canst interprete it.
Pea pehē ʻe Felo kia Siosefa, “Kuo u misi ʻae misi, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ke fakahā hono ʻuhinga; pea kuo u fanongo kiate koe, ʻoku ke faʻa ʻilo hono ʻuhinga ʻoe misi ke fakahā ia.”
16 And Ioseph answered Pharaoh, saying, Without me God shall answere for the wealth of Pharaoh.
Pea talaange ʻe Siosefa kia Felo, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai ʻiate au; ʻe tuku ʻe he ʻOtua kia Felo ʻae tala fakafiemālie.”
17 And Pharaoh sayde vnto Ioseph, In my dreame, beholde, I stoode by the banke of the riuer:
Pea pehē ʻe Felo kia Siosefa, “Naʻaku mamata ʻi heʻeku misi, pea vakai, naʻaku tuʻu ʻi he veʻe vaitafe:
18 And lo, there came vp out of the riuer seuen fat fleshed, and welfauoured kine, and they fedde in the medowe.
Pea vakai, naʻe ʻalu hake mei he vaitafe ʻae fanga pulu ʻe fitu naʻe sino lahi, mo matamatalelei; pea naʻa nau kai ʻi he ngoue mohuku:
19 Also loe, seuen other kine came vp after them, poore and very euilfauoured, and leanefleshed: I neuer sawe the like in all the lande of Egypt, for euilfauoured.
pea vakai, naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae fanga pulu kehe ʻe fitu, naʻa nau kovi mo matamata kehe, mo tutue ʻaupito, kuo ʻikai te u mamata ki he kovi pehē, ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite:
20 And the leane and euilfauoured kine did eate vp the first seuen fat kine.
Pea naʻe kai ʻo ʻosi ʻe he fanga pulu tutue, ʻae ʻuluaki fanga pulu ʻe fitu, ʻaia naʻe sino:
21 And when they had eaten them vp, it could not be knowen that they had eaten them, but they were still as euilfauoured, as they were at the beginning: so did I awake.
Pea hili ʻenau kai ʻo ʻosi ia, pea naʻe ʻikai hano fakaʻilonga ʻo ʻenau kai ia; he naʻa nau matamata kovi ai pe, ʻo hangē ʻi muʻa. Pea u ʻā ai.
22 Moreouer I sawe in my dreame, and beholde, seuen eares sprang out of one stalke, full and faire.
Pea naʻaku mamata ʻi heʻeku misi, pea vakai, naʻe ai ʻae fua koane ʻe fitu ʻi he kau pe taha, naʻe lahi mo lelei;
23 And lo, seuen eares, withered, thinne, and blasted with the East winde, sprang vp after them.
Pea vakai, naʻe ai ʻae fua koane ʻe fitu naʻe mae mo manifi, mo mate ʻi he matangi hahake, naʻe tupu hake ki mui;
24 And the thinne eares deuoured the seuen good eares. Nowe I haue tolde the soothsayers, and none can declare it vnto me.
Pea naʻe kai ʻo ʻosi ʻae ngaahi fua lelei, ʻe he ngaahi fua mate: pea ne u tala ʻae meʻa ni ki he kau fiemana; ka naʻe ʻikai ha tokotaha ke faʻa fakahā ia.”
25 Then Ioseph answered Pharaoh, Both Pharaohs dreames are one. God hath shewed Pharaoh, what he is about to doe.
Pea talaange ʻe Siosefa kia Felo, “Ko e misi ʻa Felo, ʻoku taha pe: kuo fakahā ʻe he ʻOtua kia Felo, ʻaia ʻoku ne teu ke fai.
26 The seuen good kine are seuen yeres, and the seuen good eares are seuen yeeres: this is one dreame.
Ko e fanga pulu lelei ʻe fitu ko e taʻu ia ʻe fitu: pea ko e fua lelei ʻe fitu, ko e taʻu ʻe fitu; ko e misi ʻoku taha pe.
27 Likewise the seuen thinne and euilfauoured kine, that came out after them, are seuen yeeres: and the seuen emptie eares blasted with the East winde, are seuen yeeres of famine.
Pea ko e fanga pulu tutue mo matamata kovi ʻe fitu, naʻe tupu ki mui, ko e taʻu ia ʻe fitu: pea ko e fua ʻe fitu naʻe mate ʻi he matangi hahake, ko e taʻu honge ia ʻe fitu.
28 This is the thing which I haue saide vnto Pharaoh, that God hath shewed vnto Pharaoh, what he is about to doe.
Ko eni ʻae meʻa kuo u lea ʻaki kia Felo; ko ia ʻoku teu ʻe he ʻOtua ke fai ni, kuo ne fakahā kia Felo.
29 Beholde, there come seuen yeeres of great plentie in all the land of Egypt.
Vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae taʻu mahu lahi ʻe fitu ki he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite;
30 Againe, there shall arise after them seuen yeeres of famine, so that all the plentie shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine shall consume the land:
Pea ʻe hoko mo ia ʻae taʻu ʻe fitu ʻoku honge; pea ʻe ngalo ʻaupito ʻae mahu ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite; pea ʻe fakaʻosi ʻe he honge ʻae fonua;
31 Neither shall the plentie bee knowen in the land, by reason of this famine that shall come after: for it shalbe exceeding great.
Pea ʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻae mahu ʻi he fonua ni, ko e meʻa ʻi he honge ʻe hoko mo ia; koeʻuhi ʻe lahi ʻaupito ia.
32 And therefore the dreame was doubled vnto Pharaoh the second time, because the thing is established by God, and God hasteth to performe it.
Pea ko e meʻa ʻi hono fai ʻo tuʻo ua ʻae misi kia Felo; ko hono ʻuhinga kuo fakapapau ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae meʻa ni, pea ʻe fakahoko toʻotoʻo ia ʻe he ʻOtua.
33 Nowe therefore let Pharaoh prouide for a man of vnderstanding and wisedome, and set him ouer the land of Egypt.
“Pea ko eni, ke kumi ʻe Felo ha tangata lelei, mo poto, ke fakanofo ia, ke pule ki he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
34 Let Pharaoh make and appoynt officers ouer the lande, and take vp the fift part of the land of Egypt in the seuen plenteous yeeres.
Pea ke fai ʻe Felo ʻae meʻa ni, tuku ke fakanofo ʻae kau matāpule ki he fonua ni, pea ke vaheʻi mo toʻo hono vahe nima ʻoe fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻi he taʻu mahu ʻe fitu.
35 Also let them gather all the foode of these good yeeres that come, and lay vp corne vnder the hand of Pharaoh for foode, in the cities, and let them keepe it.
Pea tuku ke nau tānaki ʻae meʻakai kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi taʻu lelei ko ia ʻoku haʻu, pea ke nau fokotuʻu ʻae koane ʻi he fekau ʻa Felo, pea nau maʻu ʻae meʻakai ʻi he ngaahi kolo.
36 So the foode shall be for the prouision of the lande, against the seuen yeeres of famine, which shalbe in the lande of Egypt, that the land perish not by famine.
Pea ko e meʻakai ko ia ko e tokonaki ia ki he fonua ʻi he taʻu ʻe fitu ʻoe honge, ʻaia ʻe hoko ki he fonua ko ʻIsipite; ke ʻoua naʻa ʻauha ʻae fonua koeʻuhi ko e honge.”
37 And the saying pleased Pharaoh and all his seruants.
Pea naʻe lelei ʻae meʻa ko ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo, mo e ʻao ʻo hono kau nofoʻanga kotoa pē.
38 Then saide Pharaoh vnto his seruants, Can we finde such a man as this, in whom is the Spirit of God?
Pea pehē ʻe Felo ki heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, “He te tau faʻa ʻilo ha tokotaha ʻo hangē ko eni, ko e tangata ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua?”
39 The Pharaoh said to Ioseph, For as much as God hath shewed thee all this, there is no man of vnderstanding, or of wisedome like vnto thee.
Pea pehē ʻe Felo kia Siosefa, “Ko e meʻa ʻi he fakahā ʻe he ʻOtua kiate koe ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ʻoku lelei mo poto ʻo hangē ko koe:
40 Thou shalt be ouer mine house, and at thy word shall all my people be armed, onely in the kings throne will I be aboue thee.
Te ke pule koe ki hoku fale: pea ʻe fekauʻi ʻa hoku kakai, ʻo fakatatau ki hoʻo lea: ko e nofoʻa fakatuʻi pe, teu lahi hake ai ʻiate koe.”
41 Moreouer Pharaoh said to Ioseph, Behold, I haue set thee ouer all the land of Egypt.
Pea pehē ʻe Felo kia Siosefa, “Vakai kuo u fakanofo koe he ʻaho ni, ki he fonua kotoa pē ko ʻIsipite.”
42 And Pharaoh tooke off his ring from his hand, and put it vpon Iosephs hand, and arayed him in garments of fine linnen, and put a golden cheyne about his necke.
Pea naʻe toʻo ʻe Felo hono mama mei hono nima, ʻo ne ʻai ia ki he nima ʻo Siosefa, ʻo ne fakakofuʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi kofu lelei, pea ne ʻai ʻae kahoa koula ki hono kia.
43 So he set him vpon the best charet that hee had, saue one: and they cryed before him, Abrech, and placed him ouer all the land of Egypt.
Pea naʻa ne tuku ia ke heka ʻi hono ua ʻoe saliote naʻa ne maʻu pea naʻa nau kalanga ʻi hono ʻao, Punou pea naʻa ne fakanofo ia ke pule ki he fonua kotoa pē ko ʻIsipite.
44 Againe Pharaoh saide vnto Ioseph, I am Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift vp his hand or his foote in all the land of Egypt.
Pea pehē ʻe Felo kia Siosefa, “Ko Felo au, pea ʻe ʻikai ha tangata ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite, te ne hiki hono nima pe vaʻe, ka ʻi hoʻo pule.”
45 And Pharaoh called Iosephs name Zaphnath-paaneah: and he gaue him to wife Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah prince of On. then went Ioseph abrode in the land of Egypt.
Pea ui ʻe Felo ʻae hingoa ʻo Siosefa ko Safinati Peanea: pea naʻa ne foaki kiate ia ʻa ʻAsinate, Ko e ʻofefine ʻo Potifela koe taulaʻeiki ʻo ʻOni, ko hono uaifi. Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Siosefa ki he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite.
46 And Ioseph was thirtie yeere old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt: and Ioseph departing from the presence of Pharaoh, went throughout all the land of Egypt.
Pea naʻe tolungofulu taʻu ʻa Siosefa ʻi heʻene tuʻu ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite. Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Siosefa mei he ʻao ʻo Felo, ʻo ne ʻalu ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite.
47 And in the seuen plenteous yeres the earth brought foorth store.
Pea ʻi he taʻu mahu ʻe fitu naʻe fua lahi ʻaupito ʻae kelekele.
48 And hee gathered vp all the foode of the seuen plenteous yeeres, which were in the lande of Egypt, and layde vp foode in the cities: the foode of the fielde, that was round about euery citie, layde he vp in the same.
Pea naʻa ne tānaki ʻae meʻakai kotoa pē ʻoe taʻu ʻe fitu, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite, ʻo fokotuʻu ia ʻi he kolo: ko e ngaahi meʻakai ʻoe ngoue, ʻaia naʻe takatakai ʻae kolo kotoa pē, naʻa ne fokotuʻu ia ki ai.
49 So Ioseph gathered wheate, like vnto the sand of the sea in multitude out of measure, vntill he left numbring: for it was without number.
Pea naʻe tānaki ʻe Siosefa ʻae koane ʻo tatau mo e ʻoneʻone ʻoe tahi, ʻo lahi ʻaupito, pea naʻe tuku ʻene lau ia; he naʻe ʻikai ke faʻa lau ia;
50 Now vnto Ioseph were borne two sonnes (before the yeeres of famine came) which Asenath the daughter of Poti-pherah prince of On bare vnto him.
Pea naʻe tupu kia Siosefa ʻae foha ʻe toko ua ʻi he teʻeki ai hoko ʻae honge, ʻaia naʻe fāʻeleʻi kiate ia ʻe ʻAsinate, ko e ʻofefine ʻo Potifela, ko e taulaʻeiki ʻo ʻOni.
51 And Ioseph called the name of the first borne Manasseh: for God, said he, hath made me forget all my labour and al my fathers houshold.
Pea naʻe ui ʻe Siosefa ʻae hingoa ʻo hono ʻuluaki, ko Manase; he naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “Kuo tuku ʻe he ʻOtua, ke u fakangaloʻi ʻeku ngaahi mamahi, mo e fale kotoa pē ʻo ʻeku tamai.”
52 Also hee called the name of the second, Ephraim: For God, sayde he hath made me fruitfull in the land of mine affliction.
Pea ne ui ʻae hingoa ʻo hono toko ua ko ʻIfalemi; he kuo ngaohi au ʻe he ʻOtua ke u monūʻia ʻi he fonua ʻo hoku tautea.
53 So the seuen yeeres of the plentie that was in the land of Egypt were ended.
Pea naʻe ʻosi ange ʻae taʻu mahu ʻe fitu, ʻaia naʻe ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite.
54 Then began the seuen yeeres of famine to come, according as Ioseph had saide: and the famine was in all landes, but in all the land of Egypt was bread.
Pea kuo hoko ʻae taʻu ʻe fitu ʻoe honge, ʻo hangē ko e lea ʻa Siosefa pea naʻe ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻae honge ka naʻe ai ʻae mā ʻi he fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite.
55 At the length all the lande of Egypt was affamished, and the people cryed to Pharaoh for bread. And Pharaoh said vnto all the Egyptians, Goe to Ioseph: what he sayth to you, doe ye.
Pea ʻi he hongea ʻae fonua kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite, naʻe tangi ʻae kakai kia Felo ki he mā: pea pehē ʻe Felo ki he kakai ʻIsipite; ʻAlu kia Siosefa; pea ko ia ʻoku ne fakahā kiate kimoutolu, mou fai ia.
56 When the famine was vpon all the land, Ioseph opened all places, wherein the store was, and solde vnto the Egyptians: for the famine waxed sore in the land of Egypt.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻae honge ki he fonua kotoa pē; pea naʻe fakaava ʻe Siosefa ʻae ngaahi feleoko, ʻo ne fakatau ki he kakai ʻIsipite; pea tupu ʻo lahi ʻae honge ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite.
57 And all countries came to Egypt to bye corne of Ioseph, because the famine was sore in all landes.
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae fonua kotoa pē ki ʻIsipite kia Siosefa ke fakatau: koeʻuhi naʻe lahi fau ʻae honge ʻi he fonua kotoa pē.
