Zanafilla 40
Albanian Bible
40 Mbas këtyre gjërave, ndodhi që kupëmbajtësi dhe bukëpjekësi i mbretit të Egjiptit fyen zotërinë e tyre, mbretin e Egjiptit.
2 Dhe Faraoni u zemërua me të dy oficerët e tij, kryekupëmbajtësin dhe kryebukëpjekësin,
3 dhe i futi në burg, në shtëpinë e kreut të rojeve, në po atë burg ku ishte mbyllur Jozefi.
4 Dhe kapiteni i rojeve i la nën mbikqyrjen e Jozefit, i cili i ndihmonte. Kështu ata qëndruan në burg për një farë kohe.
5 Po atë natë, kupëmbajtësi dhe bukëpjekësi i mbretit të Egjiptit, që ishin të mbyllur në burg, panë që të dy një ëndërr, secili ëndrrën e tij, me një kuptim të veçantë.
6 Dhe të nesërmen në mëngjes Jozefi erdhi tek ata dhe vuri re se ishin të shqetësuar.
7 Atëherë ai pyeti oficerët e Faraonit, që ishin me të në burg, në shtëpinë e zotërisë së tij dhe u tha: "Pse keni sot një fytyrë kaq të trishtuar?".
8 Ata iu përgjegjën: "Kemi parë një ëndërr dhe askush nuk është në gjëndje ta interpretojë". Atëherë Jozefi u tha atyre: "Interpretimet nuk i përkasin vallë Perëndisë? Më tregoni ëndrrat, ju lutem".
9 Kështu kryekupëmbajtësi i tregoi Jozefit ëndrrën e tij dhe i tha: "Në ëndrrën time kisha përpara një hardhi;
10 dhe në atë hardhi kishte tri degë, të cilat sa vunë lastarë, lulëzuan dhe dhanë vile rrushi të pjekur.
11 Tani unë kisha në dorë kupën e Faraonit; mora rrushin, e shtrydha në kupën e Faraonit dhe e vura kupën në dorë të Faraonit".
12 Jozefi i tha: "Ky është interpretimi i ëndrrës: tri degët janë tri ditë;
13 në krye të tri ditëve Faraoni do të të bëjë të ngresh përsëri kokën lart, do të të rivendosë në detyrën tënde dhe ti do t’i japësh në dorë kupën Faraonit, siç bëje më parë, kur ishe kupëmbajtësi i tij.
14 Por më kujto mua kur të jesh i lumtur; të lutem, trego dashamirësi ndaj meje, duke i folur për mua Faraonit, dhe më nxirr nga kjo shtëpi;
15 sepse mua më sollën fshehurazi nga vendi i hebrejve, dhe këtu s’kam bërë gjë për t’u futur në këtë burg të nëndheshëm".
16 kryebukëpjekësi, duke parë se interpretimi ishte i favorshëm, i tha Jozefit: "Edhe unë në ëndrrën time kisha tri shporta me bukë të bardhë mbi krye;
17 dhe në shportën më të lartë kishte çdo lloj gjellësh të pjekura në furrë për Faraonin; dhe zogjtë i hanin nga shporta që kisha mbi krye".
18 Atëherë Jozefi u përgjegj dhe tha: "Ky është interpretimi i ëndrrës: tri shportat janë tri ditë;
19 në krye të tri ditëve Faraoni do të të heqë kokën nga shpatullat, do të varë në një pemë, dhe zogjtë do të hanë mishrat e trupit tënd".
20 Tani ditën e tretë, ditën e përvjetorit të Faraonit, ndodhi që ai shtroi një banket për të gjithë shërbëtorët e tij; dhe bëri që të ngrinin kokën lartë si kryekupëmbajtësi dhe kryebukëpjekësi, në mes të shërbëtorëve të tij.
21 Kështu e rivendosi kryekupëmbajtësin në detyrën e tij si kupëmbajtës që t’i jepte kupën në dorë Faraonit,
22 por bëri që ta varnin kryebukëpjekësin simbas interpretimit që Jozefi u kishte dhënë.
23 Por kryekupëmbajtësi nuk u kujtua për Jozefin, por e harroi.
Genesis 40
King James Version
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.
2 And Pharaoh was wroth against two of his officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.
3 And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.
4 And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: and they continued a season in ward.
5 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.
6 And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon them, and, behold, they were sad.
7 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?
8 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.
9 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.

Joseph Interprets Two Prisoners' Dreams
40 Some time after this, the (A)cupbearer of the king of Egypt and his baker committed an offense against their lord the king of Egypt. 2 And Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker, 3 (B)and he put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the prison where Joseph was confined. 4 The captain of the guard appointed Joseph to be with them, and he attended them. They continued for some time in custody.
5 And one night they both dreamed—the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison—each his own dream, and each dream with its own interpretation. 6 When Joseph came to them in the morning, he saw that they were troubled. 7 So he asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in custody in his master's house, (C)“Why are your faces downcast today?” 8 They said to him, (D)“We have had dreams, and there is no one to interpret them.” And Joseph said to them, (E)“Do not interpretations belong to God? Please tell them to me.”
9 So the chief cupbearer told his dream to Joseph and said to him, “In my dream there was a vine before me, 10 and on the vine there were three branches. As soon as it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and the clusters ripened into grapes. 11 Pharaoh's cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup and placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand.” 12 Then Joseph said to him, (F)“This is its interpretation: (G)the three branches are three days. 13 In three days Pharaoh will (H)lift up your head and restore you to your office, and you shall place Pharaoh's cup in his hand as formerly, when you were his cupbearer. 14 Only remember me, when it is well with you, and please do me the kindness to mention me to Pharaoh, and so get me out of this house. 15 For (I)I was indeed stolen out of the land of the Hebrews, and (J)here also I have done nothing that they should put me into the pit.”
16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was favorable, he said to Joseph, “I also had a dream: there were three cake baskets on my head, 17 and in the uppermost basket there were all sorts of baked food for Pharaoh, but the birds were eating it out of the basket on my head.” 18 And Joseph answered and said, (K)“This is its interpretation: the three baskets are three days. 19 (L)In three days Pharaoh will lift up your head—from you!—and (M)hang you on a tree. And the birds will eat the flesh from you.”
20 On the third day, which was Pharaoh's (N)birthday, he made a feast for all his servants and (O)lifted up the head of the chief cupbearer and the head of the chief baker among his servants. 21 (P)He restored the chief cupbearer to his position, and (Q)he placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand. 22 But he (R)hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them. 23 Yet the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.
