Genesis 40
1 After these things, the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker 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 Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cup bearer and the chief baker.
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 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 The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he took care of them. They stayed in prison many days.
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 They both dreamt 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, 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 Joseph came in to them in the morning, and saw them, and saw that 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 He asked Pharaoh’s officers who were with him in custody in his master’s house, saying, “Why do you look so sad today?”
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 They said to him, “We have dreamt a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it.” Joseph said to them, “Don’t interpretations belong to God? Please tell it to me.”
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 The chief cup bearer told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, “In my dream, behold, a vine was in front of 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 in the vine were three branches. It was as though it budded, it blossomed, and its clusters produced 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 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 Joseph said to him, “This is its interpretation: 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 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 when you were his cup bearer.
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 remember me when it is well with you. Please show kindness to me, 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 out of the land of the Hebrews, and here also I have 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, three baskets of white bread were 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 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.”
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 Joseph answered, “This is its interpretation. 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 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.”
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 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 amongst 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 He restored the chief cup bearer to his position 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 cup bearer didn’t 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
