Gênesis 40
1 E aconteceu depois destas coisas, que o copeiro do rei do Egito e o padeiro transgrediram contra seu senhor o rei do Egito.
And it came to pass after these things, [that] the cup-bearer of the king of Egypt and the baker offended their lord the king of Egypt.
2 E irou-se Faraó contra seus dois eunucos, contra o principal dos copeiros, e contra o principal dos padeiros:
And Pharaoh was wroth with his two chamberlains — with the chief of the cup-bearers and with the chief of the bakers;
3 E os pôs em prisão na casa do capitão dos da guarda, na casa do cárcere onde José estava preso.
and he put them in custody into the house of the captain of the life-guard, into the tower-house, into the place where Joseph was imprisoned.
4 E o capitão dos da guarda deu responsabilidade deles a José, e ele lhes servia: e estiveram dias na prisão.
And the captain of the life-guard appointed Joseph to them, that he should attend on them. And they were [several] days in custody.
5 E ambos, o copeiro e o padeiro do rei do Egito, que estavam detidos na prisão, viram um sonho, cada um seu sonho em uma mesma noite, cada um conforme a declaração de seu sonho.
And they dreamed a dream, both of them in one night, each his dream, each according to the interpretation of his dream, the cup-bearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were imprisoned in the tower-house.
6 E veio a eles José pela manhã, e olhou-os, e eis que estavam tristes.
And Joseph came in to them in the morning, and looked on them, and behold, they were sad.
7 E ele perguntou àqueles oficiais de Faraó, que estavam com ele na prisão da casa de seu senhor, dizendo: Por que parecem hoje mal vossos semblantes?
And he asked Pharaoh's chamberlains that were with him in custody in his lord's house, saying, Why are your faces [so] sad to-day?
8 E eles lhe disseram: Tivemos um sonho, e não há quem o declare. Então lhes disse José: Não são de Deus as interpretações? Contai-o a mim agora.
And they said to him, We have dreamt a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said to them, [Do] not interpretations [belong] to God? tell me [your dreams], I pray you.
9 Então o chefe dos copeiros contou seu sonho a José, e disse-lhe: Eu sonhava que via uma vide diante de mim,
Then the chief of the cup-bearers told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;
10 E na vide três sarmentos; e ela como que brotava, e surgia sua flor, vindo a amadurecer seus cachos de uvas:
and in the vine were three branches; and it was as though it budded: its blossoms shot forth, its clusters ripened into grapes.
11 E que o copo de Faraó estava em minha mão, e tomava eu as uvas, e as espremia no copo de Faraó, e dava eu o copo em mão de Faraó.
And Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand.
12 E disse-lhe José: Esta é sua declaração: Os três sarmentos são três dias:
And Joseph said to him, This is the interpretation of it: the three branches are three days.
13 Ao fim de três dias Faraó te fará levantar a cabeça, e te restituirá a teu posto: e darás o copo a Faraó em sua mão, como costumavas quando eras seu copeiro.
In yet three days will 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 cup-bearer.
14 Lembra-te, pois, de mim para contigo quando tiveres esse bem, e rogo-te que uses comigo de misericórdia, e faças menção de mim a Faraó, e me tires desta prisão:
Only bear a remembrance with thee of me when it goes well with thee, and deal kindly, I pray thee, with me, and make mention of me to Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house;
15 Porque furtado fui da terra dos hebreus; e tampouco fiz aqui para que me houvessem de pôr no cárcere.
for indeed I was stolen out of the land of the Hebrews, and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.
16 E vendo o chefe dos padeiros que havia interpretado para o bem, disse a José: Também eu sonhava que via três cestos brancos sobre minha cabeça;
And when the chief of the bakers 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.
17 E no cesto mais alto havia de todos os alimentos de Faraó, obra de padeiro; e que as aves as comiam do cesto de sobre minha cabeça.
And in the uppermost basket there were all manner of victuals for Pharaoh that the baker makes, and the birds ate them out of the basket upon my head.
18 Então respondeu José, e disse: Esta é sua declaração: Os três cestos três dias são;
And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation of it: the three baskets are three days.
19 Ao fim de três dias tirará Faraó tua cabeça de sobre ti, e te fará enforcar na forca, e as aves comerão tua carne de sobre ti.
In yet three days will Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and hang thee on a tree; and the birds will eat thy flesh from off thee.
20 E foi o terceiro dia o dia do aniversário de Faraó, e fez banquete a todos os seus servos: e levantou a cabeça do chefe dos copeiros, e a cabeça do chefe dos padeiros, entre seus servos.
And it came to pass the third day — Pharaoh's birthday — that he made a feast to all his bondmen. And he lifted up the head of the chief of the cup-bearers, and the head of the chief of the bakers among his bondmen.
21 E fez voltar a seu ofício ao chefe dos copeiros; e deu ele o copo em mão de Faraó.
And he restored the chief of the cup-bearers to his office of cup-bearer again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand.
22 Mas fez enforcar ao principal dos padeiros, como lhe havia declarado José.
And he hanged the chief of the bakers, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23 E o chefe dos copeiros não se lembrou de José, ao invés disso lhe esqueceu.
But the chief of the cup-bearers did not remember Joseph, and forgot him.
