創世記

第40章

1 這些[these]事以後,埃及王的酒政和膳長得罪了他們的主─埃及王,

2 法老就惱怒酒政和膳長這二臣,

3 把他們下在護衛長府內的監裏,就是約瑟被囚的地方。

4 護衛長把他們囑託[charged]約瑟,約瑟便伺候他們;他們有些日子在監裏。

5 被囚在監之埃及王的酒政和膳長二人同夜各作一夢,各夢都有講解。

6 到了早晨,約瑟進到他們那裏,見他們有愁悶的樣子。

7 他便問法老的二臣,就是與他同囚在他主人府裏的,說:「你們[ye]今日為甚麼面帶愁容呢?」

8 他們對他說:「我們各人作了一夢,沒有人能解。」約瑟說:「解夢不是出於神嗎?請你們將夢告訴我。」

9 酒政便將他的夢告訴約瑟說:「我夢見在我面前有一棵葡萄樹,

10 樹上有三根枝子,好像發了芽,開了花,上頭的葡萄都成熟了。

11 法老的杯在我手中,我就拿葡萄擠在法老的杯裏,將杯遞在他手中。」

12 約瑟對他說:「他所作的夢是這樣解:三根枝子就是三天;

13 三天之內,法老必提你出監,叫你官復原職,你仍要遞杯在法老的手中,和先前作他的酒政一樣。

14 但你得好處的時候,求你記念我,施恩與我,在法老面前提說我,救我出這監牢。

15 我實在是從希伯來人之地被拐來的;我在這裏也沒有作過甚麼,叫他們把我下在深牢[dungeon]裏。」

16 膳長見夢解得好,就對約瑟說:「我在夢中見我頭上頂著三個白色的籃子[white baskets]

17 最上端[uppermost]的籃子裏有為法老烤的各樣食物,有飛鳥來吃我頭上籃子裏的食物。」

18 約瑟說:「你的夢是這樣解:三個籃子就是三天;

19 三天之內,法老必斬斷你的頭,把你掛在木頭上,必有飛鳥來吃你身上的肉。」

20 到了第三天,是法老的生日,他為眾臣僕設擺筵席,把酒政和膳長提出監來,

21 使酒政官復原職,他仍舊遞杯在法老手中;

22 但把膳長掛起來,正如約瑟向他們所解的話。

23 酒政卻不記念約瑟,竟忘了他。

Chapter 40

1 And it came1961 to pass after310 these428 things,1697 that the butler4945 of the king4428 of Egypt4714 and his baker644 had offended2398 their lord113 the king4428 of Egypt.4714

2 And Pharaoh6547 was wroth7107 against5921 two8147 of his officers,5631 against5921 the chief8269 of the butlers,4945 and against5921 the chief8269 of the bakers.644

3 And he put5414 them in ward4929 in the house1004 of the captain8269 of the guard,2876 into413 the prison,1004 5470 the place4725 where834 Joseph3130 was bound.631

4 And the captain8269 of the guard2876 charged6485 Joseph3130 with them, and he served8334 them: and they continued1961 a season3117 in ward.4929

5 And they dreamed2492 a dream2472 both8147 of them, each man376 his dream2472 in one259 night,3915 each man376 according to the interpretation6623 of his dream,2472 the butler4945 and the baker644 of the king4428 of Egypt,4714 which834 were bound631 in the prison.1004

6 And Joseph3130 came935 in to them in the morning,1242 and looked7200 on them, and, behold,2009 they were sad.2196

7 And he asked7592 Pharaoh's6547 officers5631 that were with him in the ward4929 of his lord's113 house,1004 saying,559 Why4069 look6440 you so sadly7451 to day?3117

8 And they said559 to him, We have dreamed2492 a dream,2472 and there is no369 interpreter6622 of it. And Joseph3130 said559 to them, Do not interpretations6623 belong to God?430 tell5608 me them, I pray4994 you.

9 And the chief8269 butler4945 told5608 his dream2472 to Joseph,3130 and said559 to him, In my dream,2472 behold,2009 a vine1612 was before6440 me;

10 And in the vine1612 were three7969 branches:8299 and it was as though it budded,6524 and her blossoms5322 shot5927 forth; and the clusters811 thereof brought1310 forth1310 ripe1310 grapes:6025

11 And Pharaoh's6547 cup3563 was in my hand:3027 and I took3947 the grapes,6025 and pressed7818 them into413 Pharaoh's6547 cup,3563 and I gave5414 the cup3563 into5921 Pharaoh's6547 hand.3709

12 And Joseph3130 said559 to him, This2088 is the interpretation6623 of it: The three7969 branches8299 are three7969 days:3117

13 Yet5750 within three7969 days3117 shall Pharaoh6547 lift5375 up your head,7218 and restore7725 you to your place:3653 and you shall deliver5414 Pharaoh's6547 cup3563 into his hand,3027 after the former7223 manner4941 when834 you were1961 his butler.4945

14 But think2142 on me when834 it shall be well3190 with you, and show6213 kindness,2617 I pray4994 you, to me, and make mention2142 of me to Pharaoh,6547 and bring3318 me out of this2088 house:1004

15 For indeed I was stolen1589 away out of the land776 of the Hebrews:5680 and here6311 also1571 have I done6213 nothing3808 3972 that they should put7760 me into the dungeon.953

16 When the chief8269 baker644 saw7200 that the interpretation6623 was good,2896 he said559 to Joseph,3130 I also637 was in my dream,2472 and, behold,2009 I had three7969 white2751 baskets5536 on5921 my head:7218

17 And in the uppermost5945 basket5536 there was of all3605 manner of bakemeats3978 for Pharaoh;6547 and the birds5775 did eat398 them out of the basket5536 on my head.7218

18 And Joseph3130 answered6030 and said,559 This2088 is the interpretation6623 thereof: The three7969 baskets5536 are three7969 days:3117

19 Yet5750 within three7969 days3117 shall Pharaoh6547 lift5375 up your head7218 from off5921 you, and shall hang8518 you on5921 a tree;6086 and the birds5775 shall eat398 your flesh1320 from off5921 you.

20 And it came1961 to pass the third7992 day,3117 which was Pharaoh's6547 birthday,3117 3205 that he made6213 a feast4960 to all3605 his servants:5650 and he lifted5375 up the head7218 of the chief8269 butler4945 and of the chief8269 baker644 among8432 his servants.5650

21 And he restored7725 the chief8269 butler4945 to his butlership4945 again;7725 and he gave5414 the cup3563 into5921 Pharaoh's6547 hand:3709

22 But he hanged8518 the chief8269 baker:644 as Joseph3130 had interpreted6622 to them.

23 Yet did not the chief8269 butler4945 remember2142 Joseph,3130 but forgot7911 him.

9 酒政便將他的夢告訴約瑟說:「我夢見在我面前有一棵葡萄樹,

9 And the chief8269 butler4945 told5608 his dream2472 to Joseph,3130 and said559 to him, In my dream,2472 behold,2009 a vine1612 was before6440 me;

11 法老的杯在我手中,我就拿葡萄擠在法老的杯裏,將杯遞在他手中。」

11 And Pharaoh's6547 cup3563 was in my hand:3027 and I took3947 the grapes,6025 and pressed7818 them into413 Pharaoh's6547 cup,3563 and I gave5414 the cup3563 into5921 Pharaoh's6547 hand.3709

12 約瑟對他說:「他所作的夢是這樣解:三根枝子就是三天;

12 And Joseph3130 said559 to him, This2088 is the interpretation6623 of it: The three7969 branches8299 are three7969 days:3117

13 三天之內,法老必提你出監,叫你官復原職,你仍要遞杯在法老的手中,和先前作他的酒政一樣。

13 Yet5750 within three7969 days3117 shall Pharaoh6547 lift5375 up your head,7218 and restore7725 you to your place:3653 and you shall deliver5414 Pharaoh's6547 cup3563 into his hand,3027 after the former7223 manner4941 when834 you were1961 his butler.4945

14 但你得好處的時候,求你記念我,施恩與我,在法老面前提說我,救我出這監牢。

14 But think2142 on me when834 it shall be well3190 with you, and show6213 kindness,2617 I pray4994 you, to me, and make mention2142 of me to Pharaoh,6547 and bring3318 me out of this2088 house:1004

16 膳長見夢解得好,就對約瑟說:「我在夢中見我頭上頂著三個白色的籃子[white baskets]

19 Yet5750 within three7969 days3117 shall Pharaoh6547 lift5375 up your head7218 from off5921 you, and shall hang8518 you on5921 a tree;6086 and the birds5775 shall eat398 your flesh1320 from off5921 you.

21 使酒政官復原職,他仍舊遞杯在法老手中;

21 And he restored7725 the chief8269 butler4945 to his butlership4945 again;7725 and he gave5414 the cup3563 into5921 Pharaoh's6547 hand:3709
