Ginsaysay ni Jose ang Kahulugan sang Duha ka Damgo

40 1-2 Natabo sang ulihi nga ang pangulo sang mga manugserbi sang ilimnon sang hari sang Egipto kag ang pangulo sang iya mga manugluto sang tinapay nakasala sa iya. Naakig gid ang hari[a] sa sining duha niya ka opisyal. Gani ginpapriso niya sila sa prisohan nga sa diin napriso man si Jose, sa ginaestaran sang kapitan sang mga guwardya sa palasyo. Si Jose ang ginsaligan sang kapitan sang mga guwardya nga mag-atipan sa ila. Nagdugay sila didto sa prisohan.

Isa sadto ka gab-i, nagdamgo ang manugserbi sang ilimnon kag ang manugluto sang tinapay samtang didto sila sa prisohan. Ang kada isa sa ila lain ang damgo kag lain man ang kahulugan sang ila damgo. Pagkaaga, pagkadto ni Jose sa ila, nakita niya nga maluya sila. Gani ginpamangkot niya sila, “Ngaa nga masinulub-on kamo?” Nagsabat sila, “Nagdamgo abi kami pero wala sing may magsaysay sang kahulugan.” Nagsiling si Jose, “Ang Dios ang nagahatag sang kaalam sa pagsaysay sang kahulugan sang mga damgo. Abi sugiri ninyo ako kon ano ang inyo mga damgo.”

Gani ginsugid sang pangulo sang mga manugserbi sang ilimnon ang iya damgo. Siling niya, “Nagdamgo ako nga may isa ka puno sang ubas sa akon atubangan 10 kag may tatlo ini ka sanga. Nagpanalingsing ini, nagpamulak, kag naluto ang iya mga bunga. 11 Nagauyat ako sang kupa sang hari sang Egipto kag nagpuksi sang ubas kag ginpuga ko dayon sa kupa. Pagkatapos ginhatag ko ang kupa sa hari.”

12 Nagsiling si Jose, “Amo ini ang kahulugan sang imo nga damgo: Ang tatlo ka sanga nagakahulugan sang tatlo ka adlaw. 13 Sa wala pa matapos ang tatlo ka adlaw, paguwaon ka sang hari sa prisohan kag pabalikon sa imo obra bilang manugserbi sang iya ilimnon. 14 Kabay pa nga dumdumon mo ako kon ara ka na sa maayo nga kahimtangan. Kag bilang pagpakita sang imo kaayo sa akon, sambita man ako sa hari agod mabuligan mo ako nga makaguwa sa prisohan. 15 Kay sa pagkamatuod, ginpuwersa lang ako nga dal-on diri sa Egipto halin sa lugar sang mga Hebreo, kag bisan diri wala man ako sing may nahimo nga sala agod prisohon.”

16 Pagkabati sang pangulo sang mga manugluto sang tinapay nga maayo ang kahulugan sang damgo sang iya kaupod, ginsugid man niya ang iya damgo kay Jose. Siling niya, “Nagdamgo man ako nga may ginalukdo ako nga tatlo ka alat nga may mga tinapay. 17 Ang sa ibabaw gid nga alat may sulod nga nagkalain-lain nga klase sang tinapay para sa hari sang Egipto, pero ginatuka ini sang mga pispis.”

18 Nagsiling si Jose, “Amo ini ang kahulugan sang imo nga damgo: Ang tatlo ka alat nagakahulugan sang tatlo ka adlaw. 19 Sa wala pa matapos ang tatlo ka adlaw, paguwaon ka sang hari sa prisohan, pero papugutan ka sang ulo kag ipatuhog ang imo bangkay sa nagatindog nga kahoy, kag pagatuk-on ka sang mga pispis.”

20 Karon, ang ikatlo nga adlaw kaadlawan sang hari sang Egipto. Gani nagpapunsyon siya para sa tanan niya nga mga opisyal. Ginpaguwa niya sa prisohan ang pangulo sang iya mga manugserbi sang ilimnon kag ang pangulo sang iya mga manugluto sang tinapay kag ginpaatubang sa iya mga opisyal. 21 Ginpabalik niya ang pangulo sang mga manugserbi sang ilimnon sa iya obra, 22 pero ang pangulo sang mga manugluto sang tinapay, ginpatuhog niya ang bangkay sini. Natabo tanan ang ginsiling ni Jose sa ila. 23 Pero wala gid makadumdom ang pangulo sang mga manugserbi sang ilimnon kay Jose.

The Cupbearer and the Baker

40 Some time later, the cupbearer(A) and the baker(B) of the king of Egypt offended their master, the king of Egypt. Pharaoh was angry(C) with his two officials,(D) the chief cupbearer and the chief baker, and put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard,(E) in the same prison where Joseph was confined. The captain of the guard(F) assigned them to Joseph,(G) and he attended them.

After they had been in custody(H) for some time, each of the two men—the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were being held in prison—had a dream(I) the same night, and each dream had a meaning of its own.(J)

When Joseph came to them the next morning, he saw that they were dejected. So he asked Pharaoh’s officials who were in custody(K) with him in his master’s house, “Why do you look so sad today?”(L)

“We both had dreams,” they answered, “but there is no one to interpret them.”(M)

Then Joseph said to them, “Do not interpretations belong to God?(N) Tell me your dreams.”

So the chief cupbearer(O) told Joseph his dream. He said to him, “In my dream I saw a vine in front of me, 10 and on the vine were three branches. As soon as it budded, it blossomed,(P) and its clusters ripened into grapes. 11 Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes, squeezed them into Pharaoh’s cup and put the cup in his hand.”

12 “This is what it means,(Q)” Joseph said to him. “The three branches are three days.(R) 13 Within three days(S) Pharaoh will lift up your head(T) and restore you to your position, and you will put Pharaoh’s cup in his hand, just as you used to do when you were his cupbearer.(U) 14 But when all goes well with you, remember me(V) and show me kindness;(W) mention me to Pharaoh(X) and get me out of this prison. 15 I was forcibly carried off from the land of the Hebrews,(Y) and even here I have done nothing to deserve being put in a dungeon.”(Z)

16 When the chief baker(AA) saw that Joseph had given a favorable interpretation,(AB) he said to Joseph, “I too had a dream: On my head were three baskets(AC) of bread.[a] 17 In the top basket were all kinds of baked goods for Pharaoh, but the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head.”

18 “This is what it means,” Joseph said. “The three baskets are three days.(AD) 19 Within three days(AE) Pharaoh will lift off your head(AF) and impale your body on a pole.(AG) And the birds will eat away your flesh.”(AH)

20 Now the third day(AI) was Pharaoh’s birthday,(AJ) and he gave a feast for all his officials.(AK) He lifted up the heads of the chief cupbearer and the chief baker(AL) in the presence of his officials: 21 He restored the chief cupbearer(AM) to his position,(AN) so that he once again put the cup into Pharaoh’s hand(AO) 22 but he impaled the chief baker,(AP) just as Joseph had said to them in his interpretation.(AQ)

23 The chief cupbearer, however, did not remember Joseph; he forgot him.(AR)

  1. Genesis 40:16 Or three wicker baskets

40 And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt.

And Pharaoh was wroth against two of his officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.

And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.

And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: and they continued a season in ward.

And 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, which were bound in the prison.

And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon them, and, behold, they were sad.

And he asked Pharaoh's officers that were with him in the ward of his lord's house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sadly to day?

And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell me them, I pray you.

And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;

10 And in the vine were three branches: and it was as though it budded, and her blossoms shot forth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes:

11 And 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.

12 And Joseph said unto him, This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days:

13 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head, and restore thee unto thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler.

14 But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:

15 For 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.

16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph, I also was in my dream, and, behold, I had three white baskets on my head:

17 And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of bakemeats for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head.

18 And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation thereof: The three baskets are three days:

19 Yet within 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.

20 And 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 of the chief baker among his servants.

21 And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand:

22 But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.

23 Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgat him.
