Genesis 40
1 And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt.
これらの事の後エジプト王の酒人と膳夫その主エジプト王に罪ををかす
2 And Pharaoh was furious with two of his officers, with the chief of the butlers, and with the chief of the bakers.
パロその二人の臣すなはち酒人の長と膳夫の長を怒りて
3 And he put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
之を侍衞の長の家の中なる獄に幽囚ふヨセフが繋れをる所なり
4 And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: and they continued a season in custody.
侍衞の長ヨセフをして彼等の側に侍しめたればヨセフ之につかふ彼等幽囚れて日を經たり
5 And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his dream in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were bound in the prison.
茲に獄に繋れたるエジプト王の酒人と膳夫の二人ともに一夜の中に各夢を見たりその夢はおのおんおのその解明にかなふ
6 And Joseph came to them in the morning, and looked upon them, and, behold, they were sad.
ヨセフ朝に及びて彼等の所に入て視るに彼等物憂に見ゆ
7 And he asked Pharaoh’s officers that were with him in the ward of his lord’s house, saying, Why look ye so sad to day?
是に於てヨセフその主人の家に己とともに幽囚をるパロの臣に問て汝等なにゆゑに今日は顏色あやしきやといふに
8 And they said to him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said to them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell me them, I pray you.
彼等これにいふ我等夢を見たれど之を解く者なしとヨセフ彼等にいひけるは解く事は神によるにあらずや請ふ我に述よ
9 And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;
酒人の長その夢をヨセフに述て之にいふ我夢の中に見しにわが前に一の葡萄樹あり
10 And on the vine were three branches: and it was as though it budded, and its blossoms shot forth; and its clusters brought forth ripe grapes:
その樹に三の枝あり芽いで花ひらきて葡萄なり球をなして熟たるがごとくなりき
11 And 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.
時にパロの爵わが手にあり我葡萄を摘てこれをパロの爵に搾りその爵をパロの手に奉たり
12 And Joseph said to him, This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days:
ヨセフ彼にいひけるはその解明は是のごとし三の枝は三日なり
13 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head, and restore thee to thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh’s cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler.
今より三日の中にパロなんぢの首を擧げ汝を故の所にかへさん汝は曩に酒人たりし時になせし如くパロの爵をその手に奉ぐるにいたらん
14 But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and show kindness to me, I pray thee, and make mention of me to Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:
然ば請ふ汝善ならん時に我をおもひて我に恩惠をほどこし吾事をパロにのべてこの家よりわれを出せ
15 For indeed I was stolen away from the land of the Hebrews: and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.
我はまことにヘブル人の地より掠れ來しものなればなりまた此にても我は牢にいれらるるがごとき事はなさざりしなり
16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, I also was in my dream, and, behold, I had three white baskets on my head:
茲に膳夫の長その解明の善りしを見てヨセフにいふ我も夢を得て見たるに白きパン三筐わが首にありて
17 And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of baked goods for Pharaoh; and the birds ate them out of the basket upon my head.
その上の筐には膳夫がパロのために作りたる各種の饌ありしが鳥わが首の筐の中より之をくらへり
18 And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation of it: The three baskets are three days:
ヨセフこたへていひけるはその解明はかくのごとし三の筐は三日なり
19 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.
今より三日の中にパロ汝の首を擧はなして汝を木に懸んしかして鳥汝の肉をくらひとるべしと
20 And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh’s birthday, that he made a feast to all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants.
第三日はパロの誕辰なればパロその諸の臣僕に筵席をなし酒人の長と膳夫の長をして首をその臣僕の中に擧しむ
21 And he restored the chief butler to his butlership again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh’s hand:
即ちパロ酒人の長をその職にかへしければ彼爵をパロの手に奉たり
22 But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.
されど膳夫の長は木に懸らるヨセフの彼等に解明せるがごとし
23 Yet the chief butler did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.
然るに酒人の長ヨセフをおぼえずして之を忘れたり
