1 A , ka taka nga tau e rua, ka moe a Parao: na, i te taha ia o te awa e tu ana.

And it cometh to pass, at the end of two years of days that Pharaoh is dreaming, and lo, he is standing by the River,

2 N a, ko te putanga ake o nga kau e whitu i roto i te awa, he ahua pai, e whai kiko ana; a ka kai ratou i roto i nga wiwi.

and lo, from the River coming up are seven kine, of fair appearance, and fat flesh, and they feed among the reeds;

3 N a, ko te putanga ake ano o etahi kau e whitu i muri i a ratou i roto i te awa, he ahua kino, he kikokore: a tu ana ratou i te taha o era kau i te pareparenga o te awa.

and lo, seven other kine are coming up after them out of the River, of bad appearance, and lean flesh, and they stand near the kine on the edge of the River,

4 N a ka kainga e nga kau ahua kino, kikokore, nga kau ahua pai e whitu, nga mea momona. A ka ara ake a Parao.

and the kine of bad appearance and lean flesh eat up the seven kine of fair appearance, and fat -- and Pharaoh awaketh.

5 A ka parangia ano ia, na, ko te rua o ana moe: na, ko te putanga ake o nga puku witi e whitu, kotahi ano hoki te kakau, he mea whai kiko, he pai.

And he sleepeth, and dreameth a second time, and lo, seven ears are coming up on one stalk, fat and good,

6 N a, ko nga puku e whitu e tupu ake ana i muri i era, he mea kikokore, he mea ngingio i te marangai.

and lo, seven ears, thin, and blasted with an east wind, are springing up after them;

7 A horomia ake nga puku whai kiko e whitu, nga mea whai kai, e nga puku kikokore e whitu. Ko te aranga ake o Parao, na, he moe!

and the thin ears swallow the seven fat and full ears -- and Pharaoh awaketh, and lo, a dream.

8 A , i te ata, na, ka pororaru tona wairua; a ka tono tangata ia ki te karanga i nga tohunga maori katoa o Ihipa, me nga mea mohio katoa o reira: a korerotia atu ana tana moe e Parao ki a ratou: otiia kihai i taea e tetahi te whakaatu i te tikanga o aua moe ki a Parao.

And it cometh to pass in the morning, that his spirit is moved, and he sendeth and calleth all the scribes of Egypt, and all its wise men, and Pharaoh recounteth to them his dream, and there is no interpreter of them to Pharaoh.

9 N a ka korero te tino kaiwhakainu ki a Parao, ka mea, Katahi ahau ka mahara ki oku he.

And the chief of the butlers speaketh with Pharaoh, saying, `My sin I mention this day:

10 I riri mai a Parao ki ana pononga, a i tuku i ahau kia puritia ki roto ki te whare o te rangatira o nga kaitiaki, ahau me te tino kaihanga taro.

Pharaoh hath been wroth against his servants, and giveth me into charge in the house of the chief of the executioners, me and the chief of the bakers;

11 A ka moe maua i tetahi moe i te po kotahi, ahau, a ia hoki; i moe maua, ahau, a ia, me te tikanga ano o a maua moe.

and we dream a dream in one night, I and he, each according to the interpretation of his dream we have dreamed.

12 N a i reira i a maua tetahi taitama Hiperu, he pononga na te rangatria o nga kaitiaki; a ka korerotia e maua ki a ia, a whakaaturia mai ana e ia te tikanga o a maua moe ki a maua; rite tonu tana whakaaturanga ki ta tera moe, ki taku.

And there with us a youth, a Hebrew, servant to the chief of the executioners, and we recount to him, and he interpreteth to us our dreams, each according to his dream hath he interpreted,

13 A tika tonu tana i whakaatu ai ki a maua: ko ahau i whakahokia e ia ki taku mahi, ko tera i taronatia.

and it cometh to pass, as he hath interpreted to us so it hath been, me he put back on my station, and him he hanged.'

14 N a ka tono tangata a Parao, hei karanga i a Hohepa, a ka hohoro ratou te mau mai i a ia i roto i te whare herehere: na ka heu ia i a ia, ka tango i etahi kakahu ke mona, a haere ana ki a Parao.

And Pharaoh sendeth and calleth Joseph, and they cause him to run out of the pit, and he shaveth, and changeth his garments, and cometh in unto Pharaoh.

15 A ka mea a Parao ki a Hohepa, I moe ahau i tetahi moe, a kahore he tangata hei whakaatu i tona tikanga: na kua tae mai tou rongo ki ahau, e korerotia ana ki te rongo koe i te moe ka taea e koe te whakaatu tona tikanga.

And Pharaoh saith unto Joseph, `A dream I have dreamed, and there is no interpreter of it, and I -- I have heard concerning thee, saying, Thou understandest a dream to interpret it,'

16 N a ka whakahoki a Hohepa ki a Parao, ka mea, Ehara i ahau: ma te Atua e whakahoki te kupu pai ki a Parao.

and Joseph answereth Pharaoh, saying, `Without me -- God doth answer Pharaoh with peace.'

17 N a ka mea a Parao ki a Hohepa, I ahau e moe ana, na, e tu ana ahau i te pareparenga o te awa:

And Pharaoh speaketh unto Joseph: `In my dream, lo, I am standing by the edge of the River,

18 N a, ka puta ake i te awa nga kau e whitu, he mea whai kiko, he ahua pai; a ka kai ratou i roto i nga wiwi:

and lo, out of the River coming up are seven kine, fat flesh, and of fair form, and they feed among the reeds;

19 N a, ko te putanga ake o etahi atu kau e whitu i muri i era, he hiroki, he ahua kino noa iho, he kikokore, kahore ahau i kite i to ratou rite te kino i te whenua katoa o Ihipa;

and lo, seven other kine are coming up after them, thin, and of very bad form, and lean flesh; I have not seen like these in all the land of Egypt for badness.

20 N a ka kainga nga kau e whitu o mua, nga mea momona, e nga kau kiroki, e nga mea kino:

`And the lean and the bad kine eat up the first seven fat kine,

21 A , i to ratou toremitanga ki roto i a ratou, e kore e mohiotia kua toremi ratou ki roto i a ratou; he mau tonu hoki to ratou ahua kino, he pera me to te timatanga. Na ka ara ahau.

and they come in unto their midst, and it hath not been known that they have come in unto their midst, and their appearance bad as at the commencement; and I awake.

22 N a i kite ano ahau i ahau e moe ana, ko nga puku witi e whitu e tupu ake ana i te kakau kotahi, he mea whai kai, he mea pai:

`And I see in my dream, and lo, seven ears are coming up on one stalk, full and good;

23 N a ko nga puku e whitu, he mea taramore, he mea kikokore, i ngingio nei i te marangai, e tupu ake ana i muri i aua puku;

and lo, seven ears, withered, thin, blasted with an east wind, are springing up after them;

24 A horomia ake nga puku papai e whitu e nga puku kikokore: na ka korerotia e ahau ki nga tohunga maori; a kahore tetahi hei whakaatu ki ahau.

and the thin ears swallow the seven good ears; and I tell unto the scribes, and there is none declaring to me.'

25 N a ko te meatanga a Hohepa ki a Parao, Ko te moe a Parao kotahi tonu: e whakaaturia ana e te Atua ki a Parao nga mea e meatia ana e ia.

And Joseph saith unto Pharaoh, `The dream of Pharaoh is one: that which God is doing he hath declared to Pharaoh;

26 K o nga kau pai e whitu, e whitu nga tau; ko nga puku pai ano e whitu, e whitu nga tau: kotahi ano te moe.

the seven good kine are seven years, and the seven good ears are seven years, the dream is one;

27 A ko nga kau hiroki e whitu, ko nga mea kino i puta ake ra i muri i a ratou, e whitu ena nga tau; a ko nga puku witi e whitu, ko nga mea i ngingio i te marangai, e whitu ena nga tau matekai.

and the seven thin and bad kine which are coming up after them are seven years, and the seven empty ears, blasted with an east wind, are seven years of famine;

28 K o te mea tena i korerotia e ahau ki a Parao: ko ta te Atua e mea ai e whakakitea ana e ia ki a Parao.

this the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: That which God is doing, he hath shewn Pharaoh.

29 N ana, e whitu nga tau e haere mai nei e nui ai te hua o te whenua katoa o Ihipa:

`Lo, seven years are coming of great abundance in all the land of Egypt,

30 A e whitu nga tau matekai e ara ake i muri i era; a ka wareware katoa te hua i te whenua o Ihipa; a ka ngaro te whenua i te matekai;

and seven years of famine have arisen after them, and all the plenty is forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine hath finished the land,

31 A e kore taua hua e mohiotia e te whenua, i taua matekai hoki o muri; no te mea he tino nanakia.

and the plenty is not known in the land because of that famine afterwards, for it very grievous.

32 A , i tuaruatia ai te moe a Parao, he mea pumau na te Atua, ka hohoro ano te meatia e te Atua.

`And because of the repeating of the dream unto Pharaoh twice, surely the thing is established by God, and God is hastening to do it.

33 N a reira, me titiro e Parao tetahi tangata mihio, whai whakaaro, kia tukua e ia nga tikanga o te whenua o Ihipa ki a ia.

`And now, let Pharaoh provide a man, intelligent and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt;

34 K ia meatia tenei e Parao, kia whakaritea hoki e ia etahi kaitirotiro mo te whenua, a kia tangohia e ia te rima o nga wahi o te whenua o Ihipa i nga tau hua e whitu.

let Pharaoh make and appoint overseers over the land, and receive a fifth of the land of Egypt in the seven years of plenty,

35 K ia kohia hoki nga kai katoa o enei tau pai e haere ake nei, kia amitia mai hoki he witi ki raro i te ringa o Parao, kia tohungia ano hoki he kai i roto i nga pa.

and they gather all the food of these good years that are coming, and heap up corn under the hand of Pharaoh -- food in the cities; and they have kept,

36 N a ka pae taua kai ma te whenua mo nga tau matekai e whitu e puta mai ana ki te whenua o Ihipa; e kore ai e ngaro te whenua i te matekai.

and the food hath been for a store for the land, for the seven years of famine which are in the land of Egypt; and the land is cut off by the famine.'

37 A he pai taua mea ki te titiro a Parao ki te titiro hoki a ana tangata katoa.

And the thing is good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants,

38 N a ka mea a Parao ki ana tangata, E kitea ranei e tatou he penei, he tangata kei a ia nei te wairua o te Atua?

and Pharaoh saith unto his servants, `Do we find like this, a man in whom the spirit of God ?'

39 A ka mea a Parao ki a Hohepa, Na, kua whakakitea nei e te Atua enei mea katoa ki a koe, kahore hoki he tangata hei rite mou, te mohio, te whai whakaaro:

and Pharaoh saith unto Joseph, `After God's causing thee to know all this, there is none intelligent and wise as thou;

40 K o koe hei rangatira mo toku whare, a ma tau kupu toku iwi katoa e tohutohu; ko te torona anake te mea e nui ake ai ahau i a koe.

thou -- thou art over my house, and at thy mouth do all my people kiss; only in the throne I am greater than thou.'

41 A ka mea a Parao ki a Hohepa, Titiro, kua waiho nei koe e ahau hei rangatira mo te whenua katoa o Ihipa.

And Pharaoh saith unto Joseph, `See, I have put thee over all the land of Egypt.'

42 N a ka tangohia e Parao tona mowhiti i tona ringa, a kuhua ana e ia ki te ringa o Hohepa, i whakakakahuria hoki ia e ia ki nga kakahu rinena pai, a whakaheia ana he hei koura ki tona kaki:

And Pharaoh turneth aside his seal-ring from off his hand, and putteth it on the hand of Joseph, and clotheth him garments of fine linen, and placeth a chain of gold on his neck,

43 I whakaekea ano ia e ia ki runga ki te tuarua o ona hariata; a ka karangatia e ratou i mua i a ia, Kia piko te turi: ka waiho ia e ia hei rangatira mo te whenua katoa o Ihipa.

and causeth him to ride in the second chariot which he hath, and they proclaim before him, `Bow the knee!' and -- to put him over all the land of Egypt.

44 I mea ano a Parao ki a Hohepa, Ko Parao ahau, a ki te kahore koe, e kore e ara ake te ringa, te waewae ranei o tetahi i te whenua katoa o Ihipa.

And Pharaoh saith unto Joseph, `I Pharaoh, and without thee a man doth not lift up his hand and his foot in all the land of Egypt;'

45 N a ka huaina e Parao te ingoa o Hohepa ko Tawhanatapaneaha; a i homai ano e ia hei wahine mana, a Ahenata, tamahine a Potiwhera, tohunga o Ono. Na ka haere a Hohepa a puta noa i te whenua katoa o Ihipa.

and Pharaoh calleth Joseph's name Zaphnath-Paaneah, and he giveth to him Asenath daughter of Poti-Pherah, priest of On, for a wife, and Joseph goeth out over the land of Egypt.

46 E toru tekau nga tau o Hohepa i tona turanga i te aroaro o Parao, o te kingi o Ihipa. Na ka puta atu a Hohepa i te aroaro o Parao, a ka haere a puta noa i te whenua katoa o Ihipa.

And Joseph a son of thirty years in his standing before Pharaoh king of Egypt, and Joseph goeth out from the presence of Pharaoh, and passeth over through all the land of Egypt;

47 A , i nga tau hua e whitu, me te mea he aohanga na te ringa te hua o te whenua.

and the land maketh in the seven years of plenty by handfuls.

48 N a ka kohia e ia nga kai katoa o nga tau e whitu i puta ki te whenua o Ihipa, a rongoatia ana te kai ki nga pa: ko te kai o te mara i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha o te pa, i rongoatia e ia ki taua pa ano.

And he gathereth all the food of the seven years which have been in the land of Egypt, and putteth food in the cities; the food of the field which round about city hath he put in its midst;

49 H eoi amitia ana e Hohepa he witi, me te mea ko te onepu o te moana, he hira whakaharahara; a whakarerea noatia iho e ia te tatau: kahore hoki i taea te tatau.

and Joseph gathereth corn as sand of the sea, multiplying exceedingly, until that he hath ceased to number, for there is no number.

50 N a ka whanau nga tama tokorua a Hohepa, i te mea kahore ano kia puta noa nga tau matekai, i whanau hoki i a raua ko Ahenata tamahine a Potiwhera tohunga o Ono.

And to Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine cometh, whom Asenath daughter of Poti-Pherah, priest of On, hath borne to him,

51 A i huaina e Hohepa te ingoa o te matamua ko Manahi: No te mea, e ki ana ia, kua meinga ahau e te Atua kia wareware ki taku mahi nui katoa, ki te whare katoa ano hoki o toku papa.

and Joseph calleth the name of the first-born Manasseh: `for, God hath made me to forget all my labour, and all the house of my father;'

52 A i huaina e ia te ingoa o te tuarua ko Eparaima: Moku hoki i meinga e te Atua kia hua ki te whenua o toku tangihanga.

and the name of the second he hath called Ephraim: `for, God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of mine affliction.'

53 N a ka taka nga tau hua e whitu i puta mai ra ki te whenua o Ihipa.

And the seven years of plenty are completed which have been in the land of Egypt,

54 A ka timata nga tau matekai e whitu te puta ake, ka pera hoki me ta Hohepa i korero ai: a i nga whenua katoa te matekai; ko te whenua katoa ia o Ihipa i whai taro.

and the seven years of famine begin to come, as Joseph said, and famine is in all the lands, but in all the land of Egypt hath been bread;

55 N a, i te matenga o te whenua katoa o Ihipa i te kai, ka tangi te iwi ki a Parao ki te taro ma ratou: a ka mea a Parao ki nga Ihipiana katoa, Haere ki a Hohepa; me mea e koutou tana e mea ai ki a koutou.

and all the land of Egypt is famished, and the people crieth unto Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh saith to all the Egyptians, `Go unto Joseph; that which he saith to you -- do.'

56 N a i runga i te mata katoa o te whenua te matekai: a ka wahia e Hohepa nga toa katoa, a hokona ana e ia ki nga Ihipiana; he nanakia hoki te matekai i te whenua o Ihipa.

And the famine has been over all the face of the land, and Joseph openeth all which have in them, and selleth to the Egyptians; and the famine is severe in the land of Egypt,

57 A ka haere nga whenua katoa ki Ihipa, ki a Hohepa, ki te hoko witi; no te mea he nui rawa te matekai o nga whenua katoa.

and all the earth hath come to Egypt, to buy, unto Joseph, for the famine was severe in all the earth.
