picture

1 و َبَعْدَ هَذا أساءَ ساقِي فِرعَوْنَ وَالخَبّازُ إلَى سَيِّدِهِما، فِرعَوْنِ مِصْرَ.

And it cometh to pass, after these things -- the butler of the king of Egypt and the baker have sinned against their lord, against the king of Egypt;

2 ف َغَضِبَ فِرعَوْنُ مِنْ رَئِيسِ سُقاتِهِ وَرَئِيسِ خَبّازِيهِ.

and Pharaoh is wroth against his two eunuchs, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers,

3 ف َحَبَسَهُما فِرعَوْنُ فِي سِجنِ رَئِيسِ الحَرَسِ حَيثُ كانَ يُوسُفُ مَحبُوساً.

and giveth them in charge in the house of the chief of the executioners, unto the round-house, the place where Joseph a prisoner,

4 و َجَعَلَ رَئِيسُ الحَرَسِ يُوسُفَ مُشْرِفاً عَلَيهِما، فَخَدَمَهُما. وَبَقِيا فِي السِّجْنِ مُدَّةً مِنَ الزَّمَنِ.

and the chief of the executioners chargeth Joseph with them, and he serveth them; and they are days in charge.

5 و َفِي إحْدَى اللَّيالِي رَأى ساقِي فِرعَوْنَ وَخَبّازُهُ المَحبُوسانِ فِي السِّجْنِ حُلْمَينِ مَعاً. وَكانَ لِكُلٍّ مِنْهُما حُلْمُهُ. وَكانَ لِكُلِّ حُلْمٍ مَعْناهُ.

And they dream a dream both of them, each his dream in one night, each according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker whom the king of Egypt hath, who prisoners in the round-house.

6 أ تَى إلَيهِما يُوسُفُ فِي الصَّباحِ. وَرَأى أنَّهُما كانا مُنزَعِجَينِ.

And Joseph cometh in unto them in the morning, and seeth them, and lo, they morose;

7 ف َسَألَ يُوسُفُ مَوَظَّفَي فِرعَوْنَ اللَّذَينِ كانا مَحبُوسَينِ مَعَهُ فِي بَيتِ سَيِّدِهِ: «لِماذا أرَى الحُزْنَ عَلَى وَجهَيكُما؟»

and he asketh Pharaoh's eunuchs who with him in charge in the house of his lord, saying, `Wherefore your faces sad to-day?'

8 ف َقالا: «رَأينا حُلْمَينِ. لَكِنْ لا يُوجَدُ مَنْ يَقدِرُ أنْ يُفَسِّرَهُما لَنا.» فَقالَ يُوسُفُ لَهُما: «وَهَلْ يُفَسِّرُ الأحلامَ غَيرُ اللهِ؟ فَأخبِرانِي بِحُلْمَيكُما.» حُلْمُ ساقِي المَلِك

And they say unto him, `A dream we have dreamed, and there is no interpreter of it;' and Joseph saith unto them, `Are not interpretations with God? recount, I pray you, to me.'

9 ف َقَصَّ ساقِي فِرعَوْنَ عَلَى يُوسُفَ حُلْمَهُ وَقالَ: «رَأيتُ فِي الحُلْمِ كَرْمَةً،

And the chief of the butlers recounteth his dream to Joseph, and saith to him, `In my dream, then lo, a vine before me!

10 و َرَأيتُ عَلَى الكَرْمَةِ ثَلاثَةَ أغصانٍ. وَما إنْ أوْرَقَتِ الكَرْمَةُ، حَتَّى ظَهَرَتْ بَراعِمُها وَنَضِجَتْ عَناقِيدُها.

and in the vine three branches, and it as it were flourishing; gone up hath its blossom, its clusters have ripened grapes;

11 و َكانَتْ كَأْسُ فِرعَوْنَ فِي يَدِي. فَأخَذْتُ العِنَبَ وَعَصَرْتُهُ فِي كَأْسِ فِرعَوْنَ، وَوَضَعْتُ الكَأْسَ فِي يَدِهِ.»

and Pharaoh's cup in my hand, and I take the grapes and press them into the cup of Pharaoh, and I give the cup into the hand of Pharaoh.'

12 ف َقالَ لَهُ يُوسُفُ: «مَعْنَى حُلْمِكَ هُوَ أنَّ الأغصانَ الثَّلاثَةَ هِيَ ثَلاثَةُ أيّامٍ.

And Joseph saith to him, `This its interpretation: the three branches are three days;

13 ف َخِلالَ ثَلاثَةِ أيّامٍ يَرْفَعُ المَلِكُ رَأسَكَ، وَيُعِيدُكَ إلَى وَظِيفَتِكَ. وَسَتُقَدِّمُ لِفِرْعَوْنَ كَأْسَهُ كَما كُنْتَ تَفْعَلُ مِنْ قَبلُ عِنْدَما كُنْتَ ساقِياً لَهُ.

yet, within three days doth Pharaoh lift up thy head, and hath put thee back on thy station, and thou hast given the cup of Pharaoh into his hand, according to the former custom when thou wast his butler.

14 ل َكِنْ أرجُو أنْ تَتَذَكَّرَنِي عِندَما يُطلِقُ سَراحَكَ. وَاصْنَعْ مَعِي مَعرُوفاً بِأنْ تَذْكُرَنِي لِفِرْعَوْنَ، وَتُخرِجَنِي مِنْ هَذا السِّجْنِ.

`Surely if thou hast remembered me with thee, when it is well with thee, and hast done (I pray thee) kindness with me, and hast made mention of me unto Pharaoh, then hast thou brought me out from this house,

15 ف َقَدِ اختُطِفْتُ مِنْ أرْضِ العِبْرانِيِّينَ. وَأنا لَمْ أرتَكِبْ هُنا جُرْماً يَسْتَوجِبُ السِّجْنَ.» حُلْمُ خَبّازِ المَلِك

for I was really stolen from the land of the Hebrews; and here also have I done nothing that they have put me in the pit.'

16 ف َلَمّا أعجَبَ التَّفْسِيرُ رَئِيسَ الخَبّازِينَ، قالَ لِيُوسُفَ: «أنا أيضاً رَأيتُ حُلْماً: كانَتْ هُناكَ ثَلاثُ سِلالٍ مِنَ الخُبْزِ الأبْيَضِ عَلَى رَأْسِي.

And the chief of the bakers seeth that he hath interpreted good, and he saith unto Joseph, `I also in a dream, and lo, three baskets of white bread on my head,

17 و َكانَ فِي السَّلَّةِ العُلْيا كُلُّ أنْواعِ الأطعِمَةِ المَخبُوزَةِ لِفِرْعَوْنَ. لَكِنَّ طُيُوراً كانَتْ تَأْكُلُها مِنَ السَّلَّةِ الَّتِي فَوْقَ رَأْسِي.»

and in the uppermost basket of all of Pharaoh's food, work of a baker; and the birds are eating them out of the basket, from off my head.'

18 ف َأجابَ يُوسُفُ: «مَعْنَى حُلْمِكَ هُوَ أنَّ السِّلالَ الثَّلاثَ هِيَ ثَلاثَةُ أيّامٍ.

And Joseph answereth and saith, `This its interpretation: the three baskets are three days;

19 ف َخِلالَ ثَلاثَةِ أيّامٍ سَيَرفَعُ فِرعَوْنُ رَأْسَكَ عَنْ جَسَدِكَ، وَسَيُعَلِّقُكَ عَلَى عَمُودٍ، فَتَأْكُلَ الطُّيُورُ لَحمَكَ.» يُوسُفُ يُنسَى

yet, within three days doth Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and hath hanged thee on a tree, and the birds have eaten thy flesh from off thee.'

20 و َبَعدَ ثَلاثَةِ أيّامٍ كانَ عِيدُ مِيلادِ فِرعَوْنَ. فَأقامَ وَلِيمَةً لِكُلِّ مَسْؤُولِيهِ. وَأطلَقَ رَئِيسَ السُّقاةِ وَرَئِيسَ الخَبّازِينَ مِنَ السِّجْنِ فِي حُضُورِ مَسْؤُولِيهِ.

And it cometh to pass, on the third day, Pharaoh's birthday, that he maketh a banquet to all his servants, and lifteth up the head of the chief of the butlers, and the head of the chief of the bakers among his servants,

21 و َأعادَ لِرَئِيسِ السُّقاةِ وَظِيفَتَهُ، فَوَضَعَ الكَأسَ فِي يَدِ فِرعَوْنَ.

and he putteth back the chief of the butlers to his butlership, and he giveth the cup into the hand of Pharaoh;

22 ل َكِنَّهُ قَطَعَ رَأسَ رَئِيسَ الخَبّازِينَ وَعَلَّقَ جَسَدَهُ، تَماماً كَما فَسَّرَ يُوسُفُ الحُلْمَينِ.

and the chief of the bakers he hath hanged, as Joseph hath interpreted to them;

23 غ َيرَ أنَّ رَئِيسَ السُّقاةِ لَمْ يَتَذَكَّرْ يُوسُفَ، بَلْ نَسِيَهُ!

and the chief of the butlers hath not remembered Joseph, but forgetteth him.
