< Genesis 40 >

1 After these things, the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker offended their lord, the king of Egypt.
Hekah olka a om phoeiah Egypt manghai kah tuitul neh buh thong loh a boei Egypt manghai taengah lai a hmuh rhoi.
2 Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cup bearer and the chief baker.
Te dongah Pharaoh tah a imkhoem tuitul rhoi kah mangpa neh buh thong rhoek kah mangpa taengah a thintoek.
3 He put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
Te dongah amih rhoi te imtawt mangpa im kah thongim ah a khueh. Te im kah thong hmuen ah Joseph te a khoh.
4 The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he took care of them. They stayed in prison many days.
Te dongah imtawt mangpa loh thongtla rhoek taengah Joseph te a hlah tih amih taengah thotat. Te tlam te thongim ah vuenhlaem om uh.
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, who were bound in the prison.
Tedae Egypt manghai loh thong im kah a khoh tuitul boei neh buh thong boei loh khoyin pakhat ah mang a man rhoi. A mang rhoi te khaw, a mang thuingaihnah khaw bok om.
6 Joseph came in to them in the morning, and saw them, and saw that they were sad.
Mincang ah amih taengla Joseph kun tih amih rhoi te a sawt hatah a hmai vik tal rhoi.
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?”
Te dongah a boei im kah thongim ah amah neh aka om Pharaoh imkhoem te a dawt tih, “Tihnin atah balae tih na hmai a thae rhoi,” a ti nah.
8 They said to him, “We have dreamed 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.”
Te vaengah Joseph la mang ka man rhoi van dae aka thuicaih om pawh,” a ti nah rhoi. Te dongah Joseph loh amih rhoi te, “Thuingaihnah he Pathen hut moenih a? Kai taengah thui rhoi mai,” a ti nah.
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,
Te dongah tuitul rhoek kah mangpa loh a mang te Joseph taengah a thui tih, “Ka mang ah misur kung te ka hmai ah lawt om.
10 and in the vine were three branches. It was as though it budded, it blossomed, and its clusters produced ripe grapes.
Misur dongah a baek pathum neh a muem, a pai khaw cuen, misur kah a su khaw hmin.
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.”
Te vaengah Pharaoh kah boengloeng te ka kut ah om. Te phoeiah misur thaih te ka loh tih Pharaoh boengloeng dongah ka sui phoeiah boengloeng te Pharaoh kut ah ka paek,” a ti nah.
12 Joseph said to him, “This is its interpretation: the three branches are three days.
Joseph loh anih te, “A thuingaihnah he, misur baek pathum te khohnin hnin thum ni.
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.
Hnin thum khuiah Pharaoh loh na lu te a dangrhoek vetih nang te namah hmuen la m'mael sak ni. Hnukbuet ah a tuitul la na om vaengkah khosing bangla Pharaoh te a kut dongah boengloeng na doe ni.
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.
Tedae namah taengkah kai nan poek mai atah namah ham a voelphoeng vaengah kai taengah sitlohnah tueng sak mai. Pharaoh taengah kai n'thoelh lamtah kai he, he im lamloh n'khuen ne.
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.”
Hebrew kho lamkah a huen la n'huen phoeiah hiah khaw ba ka saii pawt maiah tangrhom la kai n'hlak uh,” a ti nah.
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.
A then la a thuicaih te buh thong rhoek kah mangpa long khaw a hmuh vaengah Joseph la, “Kai khaw ka mang vaengah vaidam te kodawn pathum neh ka lu ah ka doeng.
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.”
Te vaengah Pharaoh kah cakok ka thong boeih te a so kah kodawn dongah om. Tedae ka lu sokah kodawn te vaa loh a caak,” a ti nah.
18 Joseph answered, “This is its interpretation. The three baskets are three days.
Te dongah Joseph loh a doo tih, “A thuingaihnah he tah kodawn pathum khohnin hnin thum ni.
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.”
Hnin thum khuiah Pharaoh loh na lu te na pumdong lamkah a phil vetih thing dongla n'kuiok sak phoeiah na saa te vaa loh a caak ni,” a ti nah.
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.
Te phoeikah a thum khohnin dongah Pharaoh cun nah khohnin om tih a sal boeih ham buhkoknah a saii. Te vaengah tuitul rhoek kah mangpa lu neh buh thong rhoek kah mangpa lu te a sal lakli ah a dangrhoek.
21 He restored the chief cup bearer to his position again, and he gave the cup into Pharaoh’s hand;
Te vaengah tuitul rhoek kah mangpa te amah kah tuitul la koep a khueh tih Pharaoh kut ah boengloeng a doe.
22 but he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
Tedae buh thong mangpa te tah Joseph kah a thuicaih van bangla a kuiok sak.
23 Yet the chief cup bearer didn’t remember Joseph, but forgot him.
Tedae tuitul mangpa loh Joseph te a poek mueh la a hnilh
