1 T hen it came about after these things, the cupbearer and the baker for the king of Egypt offended their lord, the king of Egypt.

وَبَعْدَ هَذا أساءَ ساقِي فِرعَوْنَ وَالخَبّازُ إلَى سَيِّدِهِما، فِرعَوْنِ مِصْرَ.

2 P haraoh was furious with his two officials, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker.

فَغَضِبَ فِرعَوْنُ مِنْ رَئِيسِ سُقاتِهِ وَرَئِيسِ خَبّازِيهِ.

3 S o he put them in confinement in the house of the captain of the bodyguard, in the jail, the same place where Joseph was imprisoned.

فَحَبَسَهُما فِرعَوْنُ فِي سِجنِ رَئِيسِ الحَرَسِ حَيثُ كانَ يُوسُفُ مَحبُوساً.

4 T he captain of the bodyguard put Joseph in charge of them, and he took care of them; and they were in confinement for some time.

وَجَعَلَ رَئِيسُ الحَرَسِ يُوسُفَ مُشْرِفاً عَلَيهِما، فَخَدَمَهُما. وَبَقِيا فِي السِّجْنِ مُدَّةً مِنَ الزَّمَنِ.

5 T hen the cupbearer and the baker for the king of Egypt, who were confined in jail, both had a dream the same night, each man with his own dream and each dream with its own interpretation.

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

6 W hen Joseph came to them in the morning and observed them, behold, they were dejected.

أتَى إلَيهِما يُوسُفُ فِي الصَّباحِ. وَرَأى أنَّهُما كانا مُنزَعِجَينِ.

7 H e asked Pharaoh’s officials who were with him in confinement in his master’s house, “ Why are your faces so sad today?”

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

8 T hen they said to him, “ We have had a dream and there is no one to interpret it.” Then Joseph said to them, “ Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell it to me, please.”

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

9 S o the chief cupbearer told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, “In my dream, behold, there was a vine in front of me;

فَقَصَّ ساقِي فِرعَوْنَ عَلَى يُوسُفَ حُلْمَهُ وَقالَ: «رَأيتُ فِي الحُلْمِ كَرْمَةً،

10 a nd on the vine were three branches. And as it was budding, its blossoms came out, and its clusters produced ripe grapes.

وَرَأيتُ عَلَى الكَرْمَةِ ثَلاثَةَ أغصانٍ. وَما إنْ أوْرَقَتِ الكَرْمَةُ، حَتَّى ظَهَرَتْ بَراعِمُها وَنَضِجَتْ عَناقِيدُها.

11 N ow Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand; so I took the grapes and squeezed them into Pharaoh’s cup, and I put the cup into Pharaoh’s hand.”

وَكانَتْ كَأْسُ فِرعَوْنَ فِي يَدِي. فَأخَذْتُ العِنَبَ وَعَصَرْتُهُ فِي كَأْسِ فِرعَوْنَ، وَوَضَعْتُ الكَأْسَ فِي يَدِهِ.»

12 T hen Joseph said to him, “This is the interpretation of it: the three branches are three days;

فَقالَ لَهُ يُوسُفُ: «مَعْنَى حُلْمِكَ هُوَ أنَّ الأغصانَ الثَّلاثَةَ هِيَ ثَلاثَةُ أيّامٍ.

13 w ithin three more days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your office; and you will put Pharaoh’s cup into his hand according to your former custom when you were his cupbearer.

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

14 O nly keep me in mind when it goes well with you, and please do me a kindness by mentioning me to Pharaoh and get me out of this house.

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

15 F or I was in fact kidnapped from the land of the Hebrews, and even here I have done nothing that they should have put me into the dungeon.”

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

16 W hen the chief baker saw that he had interpreted favorably, he said to Joseph, “I also saw in my dream, and behold, there were three baskets of white bread on my head;

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

17 a nd in the top basket there were some of all sorts of baked food for Pharaoh, and the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head.”

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

18 T hen Joseph answered and said, “This is its interpretation: the three baskets are three days;

فَأجابَ يُوسُفُ: «مَعْنَى حُلْمِكَ هُوَ أنَّ السِّلالَ الثَّلاثَ هِيَ ثَلاثَةُ أيّامٍ.

19 w ithin three more days Pharaoh will lift up your head from you and will hang you on a tree, and the birds will eat your flesh off you.”

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

20 T hus it came about on the third day, which was Pharaoh’s birthday, that he made a feast for all his servants; and he lifted up the head of the chief cupbearer and the head of the chief baker among his servants.

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

21 H e restored the chief cupbearer to his office, and he put the cup into Pharaoh’s hand;

وَأعادَ لِرَئِيسِ السُّقاةِ وَظِيفَتَهُ، فَوَضَعَ الكَأسَ فِي يَدِ فِرعَوْنَ.

22 b ut he hanged the chief baker, just as Joseph had interpreted to them.

لَكِنَّهُ قَطَعَ رَأسَ رَئِيسَ الخَبّازِينَ وَعَلَّقَ جَسَدَهُ، تَماماً كَما فَسَّرَ يُوسُفُ الحُلْمَينِ.

23 Y et the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.

غَيرَ أنَّ رَئِيسَ السُّقاةِ لَمْ يَتَذَكَّرْ يُوسُفَ، بَلْ نَسِيَهُ!
