Genesis 40
Asang Khongca Bible (Eastern Khumi Chin, 2019)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1Ni nazetto maw oh pacoengah, Izip siangpahrang ih boengloeng sinkung hoi buh thongkung loe angmah ih angraeng Izip siangpahrang koeh ai ih hmuen to sak hoi.
1And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker offended their lord the king of Egypt.
2Faro loe boengloeng sinkung hoi buh thongkung, angmah ih toksah angraeng hnik nuiah paroeai palungphui.
2And Pharaoh was wroth against his two officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
3To pongah nihnik to Joseph thongkrakhaih ahmuen, im toepkung ohhaih im ah thong pakhrak hmaek.
3And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
4Thongim ukkung mah nihnik to Joseph ban ah paek moe, Joseph mah nihnik to khetzawn; ni nazetto maw loe to imthung ah thongkrak hoi.
4And the captain of the guard charged Joseph to be with them, and he ministered unto them; and they continued a season in ward.
5To tiah thongim thungah oh hoi pacoengah, Izip siangpahrang ih boengloeng sinkung hoi buh thongkung mah, qumto naah angmah hnik hnuksak ih amang to a sak hoi hmaek.
5And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his dream, in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were bound in the prison.
6Joseph loe khawnbang khawnthaw ah nihnik khaeah caeh; nihnik to khet naah, palung a set hoi.
6And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and saw them, and, behold, they were sad.
7To pongah angmah ih angraeng im ah angmah hoi nawnto thongkrah Faro ih toksah angraeng hnik khaeah, Tipongah vaihni loe palung na set hoi parai loe? tiah a naa.
7And he asked Pharaoh's officers that were with him in the ward of his master's house, saying: 'Wherefore look ye so sad to-day?'
8Nihnik mah, Amang ka sak hoi, toe lehkung om ai, tiah a naa hoi. To pongah Joseph mah nihnik khaeah, Sithaw mah leh thai ai, tiah na poek hoi maw? Na mang to na thui hoih, tiah a naa.
8And they said unto him: 'We have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it.' And Joseph said unto them: 'Do not interpretations belong to God? tell it me, I pray you.'
9To pongah boengloeng sinkung mah angmah ih amang to Joseph khaeah thuih pae; anih khaeah, Ka mang ah, misurkung to ka hmaa ah oh;
9And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him: 'In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;
10to misurkung pongah tanghang thumto oh; tanghang nuiah tadok to tacawt moe, apawk to apawk, athaih to tacawt moe, hminh;
10and in the vine were three branches; and as it was budding, its blossoms shot forth, and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes,
11Faro ih boengloeng loe ka ban ah oh; misurthaih to ka pakhrik moe, Faro ih boengloeng ah ka pasawh pae, boengloeng to a ban ah ka paek, tiah a thuih pae.
11and 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.'
12Joseph mah anih khaeah, Amang thuih koehhaih loe hae tiah oh; tanghang thumto loe ni thumto thuih koehhaih ih ni.
12And Joseph said unto him: 'This is the interpretation of it: the three branches are three days;
13Ni thumto thungah Faro mah na lu to atoeng tahang ueloe, nangmah ih ahmuen ah na suem let tih; canghniah boengloeng sinkung ah na oh baktih toengah, Faro ban ah boengloeng paekkung ah na om let tih.
13within yet three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head, and restore thee unto thine office; and thou shalt give Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler.
14Khosak hoihaih na tongh naah, kai hae na pahnet hmah loe, ka nuiah na tahmenhaih amtuengsak ah; Faro khaeah kai ih kawng to na thui pae ah loe, hae thongim thung hoiah na loisak toeng ah;
14But have me in thy remembrance when it shall be well with thee, and show kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house.
15kai loe Hebru prae thung hoiah ang paquk o ving moe, hae prae ah doeh sakpazaehaih om ai ah thongim thungah ang pakhrak o let bae, tiah a naa.
15For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews; and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon.'
16Joseph mah amang kahoih ah leh pae, tito buh thong kami mah panoek naah, Joseph khaeah, Kai doeh amang ka sak toeng, Khenah, ka lu nuiah takaw suekhaih kanglung takho thumto ka koeng;
16When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph: 'I also saw in my dream, and, behold, three baskets of white bread were on my head;
17ranui koek ih takho pongah loe Faro han ih takaw congca to oh; toe ka lu nui ih takaw loe tavaanawk mah caak o, tiah a naa.
17and in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of baked food for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head.'
18Joseph mah, Amang thuih koehhaih loe hae tiah oh; takho thumto loe ni thumto thuih koehhaih ih ni;
18And Joseph answered and said: 'This is the interpretation thereof: the three baskets are three days;
19ni thumto thungah Faro mah na lu to pathawk tahang ueloe, thing pongah na bang tih; to pacoengah na ngan to tavaanawk mah caa o tih, tiah a naa.
19within yet three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.'
20Ni thumto naah Faro tapenhaih ni to oh; to naah anih mah angmah ih tamnanawk boih hanah buhraenghaih to sak pae; a tamnanawk salakah boengloeng sin kami hoi buh thong kami ih lu to atoengh pae tahang;
20And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants; and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and the head of the chief baker among his servants.
21boengloeng sin kami hanah loe tok to a paek let pongah, anih loe Faro ban ah boengloeng paek kami ah oh let;
21And he restored the chief butler back unto his butlership; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand.
22Toe buh thong kami loe Joseph mah thuih pae ih lok baktih toengah, thing nuiah a bangh.
22But he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
23Toe boengloeng sin kami mah Joseph to panoek ai, pahnet ving boeh.
23Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgot him.
