1 And it came to pass1961 at the end4480 7093 of two full years,8141 3117 that Pharaoh6547 dreamed:2492 and, behold,2009 he stood5975 by5921 the river.2975
|
1 過了兩年，法老作夢，夢見自己站在河邊。
|
|
2 And, behold,2009 there came up5927 out of4480 the river2975 seven7651 well3303 favored4758 kine6510 and fatfleshed;1277 1320 and they fed7462 in a meadow.260
|
2 不料［behold］，有七隻母牛從河裏上來，又美好又肥胖［fatfleshed］；在草地［meadow］吃草。
|
|
3 And, behold,2009 seven7651 other312 kine6510 came up5927 after310 them out of4480 the river,2975 ill7451 favored4758 and leanfleshed;1851 1320 and stood5975 by681 the other kine6510 upon5921 the brink8193 of the river.2975
|
3 隨後又見［behold］有七隻母牛從河裏上來，又醜陋又乾瘦，與那七隻母牛一同站在河邊。
|
|
4 And the ill7451 favored4758 and leanfleshed1851 1320 kine6510 did eat up398 853 the seven7651 well3303 favored4758 and fat1277 kine.6510 So Pharaoh6547 awoke.3364
|
4 這又醜陋又乾瘦的七隻母牛吃盡了那又美好又肥壯的七隻母牛。法老就醒了。
|
|
5 And he slept3462 and dreamed2492 the second time:8145 and, behold,2009 seven7651 ears of corn7641 came up5927 upon one259 stalk,7070 rank1277 and good.2896
|
5 他又睡著，第二回作夢，夢見一棵麥子長了七個穗子，又肥大又佳美，
|
|
6 And, behold,2009 seven7651 thin1851 ears7641 and blasted7710 with the east wind6921 sprung up6779 after310 them.
|
6 隨後又見［behold］長了七個細弱的穗子［thin ears］，被東風吹枯［blasted］了。
|
|
7 And the seven thin1851 ears7641 devoured1104 853 the seven7651 rank1277 and full4392 ears.7641 And Pharaoh6547 awoke,3364 and, behold,2009 it was a dream.2472
|
7 這七個［seven］細弱的穗子吞了那七個又肥大又飽滿的穗子。法老醒了，不料是個夢。
|
|
8 And it came to pass1961 in the morning1242 that his spirit7307 was troubled;6470 and he sent7971 and called for7121 853 all3605 the magicians2748 of Egypt,4714 and all3605 the wise men2450 thereof: and Pharaoh6547 told5608 them853 his dream;2472 but there was none369 that could interpret6622 them unto Pharaoh.6547
|
8 到了早晨，法老靈［spirit］裏不安，就差人召了埃及所有的術士和智［wise］士來；法老就把所作的夢告訴他們，卻沒有人能給法老圓解。
|
|
9 Then spoke1696 the chief8269 butler4945 853 unto Pharaoh,6547 saying,559 I589 do remember2142 853 my faults2399 this day: 3117
|
9 那時酒政對法老說：「我今日想起我的錯［faults］來。
|
|
10 Pharaoh6547 was wroth7107 with5921 his servants,5650 and put5414 me in ward4929 in the captain8269 of the guard's2876 house,1004 both me and the chief8269 baker: 644
|
10 從前法老惱怒臣僕，把我和膳長下在護衛長府內的監裏。
|
|
11 And we dreamed2492 a dream2472 in one259 night,3915 I589 and he;1931 we dreamed2492 each man376 according to the interpretation6623 of his dream.2472
|
11 我們二人同夜各作一夢，各夢都有講解。
|
|
12 And there was there8033 with854 us a young man,5288 a Hebrew,5680 servant5650 to the captain8269 of the guard;2876 and we told5608 him, and he interpreted6622 to us853 our dreams;2472 to each man376 according to his dream2472 he did interpret.6622
|
12 在那裏同著我們有一個希伯來的少年人，是護衛長的僕人，我們告訴他，他就把我們的夢圓解，是按著各人的夢圓解的。
|
|
13 And it came to pass,1961 as834 he interpreted6622 to us, so3651 it was;1961 me he restored7725 unto5921 mine office,3653 and him he hanged.8518
|
13 後來正如他給我們圓解的成就了；我官復原職，膳長被掛起來了。」
|
|
14 Then Pharaoh6547 sent7971 and called7121 853 Joseph,3130 and they brought him hastily7323 out of4480 the dungeon:953 and he shaved1548 himself, and changed2498 his raiment,8071 and came in935 unto413 Pharaoh.6547
|
14 法老便［Then］差人去召約瑟，他們便急忙帶他出深牢［dungeon］，他就剃頭，刮臉，換衣服，進到法老面前。
|
|
15 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 I have dreamed2492 a dream,2472 and there is none369 that can interpret6622 it: and I589 have heard8085 say559 of5921 thee, that thou canst understand8085 a dream2472 to interpret6622 it.
|
15 法老對約瑟說：「我作了一夢，沒有人能解；我聽見人說，你能明白夢的意思，能以解夢［thou canst understand a dream to interpret it］。」
|
|
16 And Joseph3130 answered6030 853 Pharaoh,6547 saying,559 It is not in1107 me: God430 shall give Pharaoh an answer6030 6547 of853 peace.7965
|
16 約瑟回答法老說：「這不在乎我，神必將平安的話回答法老。」
|
|
17 And Pharaoh6547 said1696 unto413 Joseph,3130 In my dream,2472 behold,2009 I stood5975 upon5921 the bank8193 of the river: 2975
|
17 法老對約瑟說：「我夢見我站在河邊，
|
|
18 And, behold,2009 there came up5927 out of4480 the river2975 seven7651 kine,6510 fatfleshed1277 1320 and well3303 favored;8389 and they fed7462 in a meadow: 260
|
18 又見［And, behold］有七隻母牛從河裏上來，又肥胖［fatfleshed］又美好，在草地［meadow］吃草。
|
|
19 And, behold,2009 seven7651 other312 kine6510 came up5927 after310 them, poor1800 and very3966 ill7451 favored8389 and leanfleshed,7534 1320 such2007 as I never3808 saw7200 in all3605 the land776 of Egypt4714 for badness: 7455
|
19 隨後又見［behold］有七隻母牛上來，又軟弱又醜陋又乾瘦，在埃及遍地，我沒有見過這樣不好的。
|
|
20 And the lean7534 and the ill favored7451 kine6510 did eat up398 853 the first7223 seven7651 fat1277 kine: 6510
|
20 這又乾瘦又醜陋的母牛吃盡了那以先的七隻肥母牛，
|
|
21 And when they had eaten them up,935 413 7130 it could not3808 be known3045 that3588 they had eaten935 413 7130 them; but they were still ill favored,4758 7451 as834 at the beginning.8462 So I awoke.3364
|
21 吃了以後卻看不出是吃了，那醜陋的樣子仍舊和先前一樣。我就醒了。
|
|
22 And I saw7200 in my dream,2472 and, behold,2009 seven7651 ears7641 came up5927 in one259 stalk,7070 full4392 and good: 2896
|
22 我又夢見一棵麥子，長了七個穗子，又飽滿又佳美，
|
|
23 And, behold,2009 seven7651 ears,7641 withered,6798 thin,1851 and blasted7710 with the east wind,6921 sprung up6779 after310 them:
|
23 隨後又見［behold］長了七個穗子，枯槁細弱，被東風吹枯［blasted］了。
|
|
24 And the thin1851 ears7641 devoured1104 853 the seven7651 good2896 ears:7641 and I told559 this unto413 the magicians;2748 but there was none369 that could declare5046 it to me.
|
24 這些細弱的穗子吞了那七個佳美的穗子。我將這夢告訴了術士，卻沒有人能給我解說。」
|
|
25 And Joseph3130 said559 unto413 Pharaoh,6547 The dream2472 of Pharaoh6547 is one:259 God430 hath showed5046 Pharaoh6547 853 what834 he is about to do.6213
|
25 約瑟對法老說：「法老的夢乃是一個。神已將所要作的事指示法老了。
|
|
26 The seven7651 good2896 kine6510 are seven7651 years;8141 and the seven7651 good2896 ears7641 are seven7651 years:8141 the dream2472 is one.259
|
26 七隻好母牛是七年，七個好穗子也是七年；這夢乃是一個。
|
|
27 And the seven7651 thin7534 and ill favored7451 kine6510 that came up5927 after310 them are seven7651 years;8141 and the seven7651 empty7386 ears7641 blasted7710 with the east wind6921 shall be1961 seven7651 years8141 of famine.7458
|
27 那隨後上來的七隻又乾瘦又醜陋的母牛是七年，那七個虛空、被東風吹枯［blasted］的穗子也是七年，都是七個荒年。
|
|
28 This1931 is the thing1697 which834 I have spoken1696 unto413 Pharaoh:6547 What834 God430 is about to do6213 he showeth7200 853 unto Pharaoh.6547
|
28 這就是我對法老所說，神已將所要作的事顯明給法老了。
|
|
29 Behold,2009 there come935 seven7651 years8141 of great1419 plenty7647 throughout all3605 the land776 of Egypt: 4714
|
29 看哪［Behold］，埃及遍地必來七個大豐年，
|
|
30 And there shall arise6965 after310 them seven7651 years8141 of famine;7458 and all3605 the plenty7647 shall be forgotten7911 in the land776 of Egypt;4714 and the famine7458 shall consume3615 853 the land;776
|
30 隨後又要來七個荒年，甚至埃及地都忘了先前的豐收，全地必被饑荒所滅。
|
|
31 And the plenty7647 shall not3808 be known3045 in the land776 by reason of4480 6440 that1931 famine7458 following;310 3651 for3588 it1931 shall be very3966 grievous.3515
|
31 因那以後的饑荒甚大，便看不出［be known］先前的豐收了。
|
|
32 And for5921 that the dream2472 was doubled8138 unto413 Pharaoh6547 twice;6471 it is because3588 the thing1697 is established3559 by4480 5973 God,430 and God430 will shortly4116 bring it to pass.6213
|
32 至於法老兩回作夢，是因神命定這事，而且神［God］必速速成就。
|
|
33 Now6258 therefore let Pharaoh6547 look out7200 a man376 discreet995 and wise,2450 and set7896 him over5921 the land776 of Egypt.4714
|
33 所以，法老當揀選一個有聰明有智慧的人，派他治理埃及地。
|
|
34 Let Pharaoh6547 do6213 this, and let him appoint6485 officers6496 over5921 the land,776 and take up the fifth part2567 of853 the land776 of Egypt4714 in the seven7651 plenteous7647 years.8141
|
34 法老當這樣行，又讓他［let him］派官員管理這地。當七個豐年的時候，征收埃及地的五分之一，
|
|
35 And let them gather6908 853 all3605 the food400 of those428 good2896 years8141 that come,935 and lay up6651 corn1250 under8478 the hand3027 of Pharaoh,6547 and let them keep8104 food400 in the cities.5892
|
35 叫他們把將來豐年一切的糧食收聚［gather］起來，積蓄五穀，收存在各城裏作食物，歸於法老的手下。
|
|
36 And that food400 shall be1961 for store6487 to the land776 against the seven7651 years8141 of famine,7458 which834 shall be1961 in the land776 of Egypt;4714 that the land776 perish3772 not3808 through the famine.7458
|
36 所積蓄的糧食可以防備埃及地將來的七個荒年，免得這地被饑荒所滅。」
|
|
37 And the thing1697 was good3190 in the eyes5869 of Pharaoh,6547 and in the eyes5869 of all3605 his servants.5650
|
37 法老和他一切臣僕都看這事為妙［the things was good in the eyes］。
|
|
38 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 his servants,5650 Can we find4672 such a one as this2088 is, a man376 in whom834 the Spirit7307 of God430 is?
|
38 法老對臣僕說：「像這樣的人，有神的靈［Spirit］在他裏頭，我們豈能找得著呢？」
|
|
39 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 Forasmuch310 as God430 hath showed3045 thee853 all3605 this,2063 there is none369 so discreet995 and wise2450 as thou3644 art:
|
39 法老對約瑟說：「神既將這事都指示你，可見沒有人像你這樣有聰明有智慧。
|
|
40 Thou859 shalt be1961 over5921 my house,1004 and according unto5921 thy word6310 shall all3605 my people5971 be ruled:5401 only7535 in the throne3678 will I be greater1431 than4480 thou.
|
40 你可以掌管我的家；我的民都必聽從你的話。唯獨在寶座上我比你大。」
|
|
41 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 See,7200 I have set5414 thee over5921 all3605 the land776 of Egypt.4714
|
41 法老又對約瑟說：「我派你治理埃及全地。」
|
|
42 And Pharaoh6547 took off5493 853 his ring2885 from4480 5921 his hand,3027 and put5414 it upon5921 Joseph's3130 hand,3027 and arrayed3847 him in vestures899 of fine linen,8336 and put7760 a gold2091 chain7242 about5921 his neck;6677
|
42 法老就摘下手上的戒指［ring］，戴在約瑟的手上，給他穿上細麻衣，把金鏈戴在他的頸項上，
|
|
43 And he made him to ride7392 in the second4932 chariot4818 which834 he had; and they cried7121 before6440 him, Bow the knee:86 and he made5414 him ruler over5921 all3605 the land776 of Egypt.4714
|
43 又叫約瑟坐他的副車，喝道的在前呼叫說：「跪下。」這樣、法老派他治理埃及全地。
|
|
44 And Pharaoh6547 said559 unto413 Joseph,3130 I589 am Pharaoh,6547 and without1107 thee shall no3808 man376 lift up7311 853 his hand3027 or foot7272 in all3605 the land776 of Egypt.4714
|
44 法老對約瑟說：「我是法老，在埃及全地，若沒有你的命令，不許人舉起手腳［lift up his hand or foot］」。
|
|
45 And Pharaoh6547 called7121 Joseph's3130 name8034 Zaphnath-paaneah;6847 and he gave5414 him to wife802 853 Asenath621 the daughter1323 of Poti-pherah6319 priest3548 of On.204 And Joseph3130 went out3318 over5921 all the land776 of Egypt.4714
|
45 法老賜名給約瑟，叫撒發那忒．巴內亞，又將安城的祭司波提．非拉的女兒亞西納給他為妻。約瑟就出去巡行埃及地。
|
|
46 And Joseph3130 was thirty7970 years8141 old1121 when he stood5975 before6440 Pharaoh6547 king4428 of Egypt.4714 And Joseph3130 went out3318 from the presence4480 6440 of Pharaoh,6547 and went5674 throughout all3605 the land776 of Egypt.4714
|
46 約瑟見埃及王法老的時候年三十歲。他從法老面前出去，遍行埃及全地。
|
|
47 And in the seven7651 plenteous7647 years8141 the earth776 brought forth6213 by handfuls.7062
|
47 七個豐年之內，地的出產一把一把的［by handfuls］，
|
|
48 And he gathered up6908 853 all3605 the food400 of the seven7651 years,8141 which834 were1961 in the land776 of Egypt,4714 and laid up5414 the food400 in the cities:5892 the food400 of the field,7704 which834 was round about5439 every city,5892 laid he up5414 in the same.8432
|
48 約瑟收聚［gathered］埃及地七個豐年一切的糧食，把糧食積存在各城裏；各城周圍田地的糧食都積存在本城裏。
|
|
49 And Joseph3130 gathered6651 corn1250 as the sand2344 of the sea,3220 very3966 much,7235 until5704 he left2308 numbering;5608 for3588 it was without369 number.4557
|
49 約瑟積蓄五穀甚多，如同海邊的沙，無法計算，因為穀不可勝數。
|
|
50 And unto Joseph3130 were born3205 two8147 sons1121 before2962 the years8141 of famine7458 came,935 which834 Asenath621 the daughter1323 of Poti-pherah6319 priest3548 of On204 bore3205 unto him.
|
50 荒年未到以前，安城的祭司波提．非拉的女兒亞西納給約瑟生了兩個兒子。
|
|
51 And Joseph3130 called7121 853 the name8034 of the firstborn1060 Manasseh:4519 For3588 God,430 said he, hath made me forget5382 853 all3605 my toil,5999 and all3605 my father's1 house.1004
|
51 約瑟給長子起名叫瑪拿西，因為他說：「神使我忘了一切的困苦和我父的全家。」
|
|
52 And the name8034 of the second8145 called7121 he Ephraim:669 For3588 God430 hath caused me to be fruitful6509 in the land776 of my affliction.6040
|
52 他給次子起名叫以法蓮，因為他說：「神使我在受苦之地［land of］昌盛。」
|
|
53 And the seven7651 years8141 of plenteousness,7647 that834 was1961 in the land776 of Egypt,4714 were ended.3615
|
53 埃及地的七個豐年完了［were ended］。
|
|
54 And the seven7651 years8141 of dearth7458 began2490 to come,935 according as834 Joseph3130 had said:559 and the dearth7458 was1961 in all3605 lands;776 but in all3605 the land776 of Egypt4714 there was1961 bread.3899
|
54 七個荒年便來［began to come］，正如約瑟所說的。各地都有饑荒；唯獨埃及全地有糧食。
|
|
55 And when all3605 the land776 of Egypt4714 was famished,7456 the people5971 cried6817 to413 Pharaoh6547 for bread:3899 and Pharaoh6547 said559 unto all3605 the Egyptians,4714 Go1980 unto413 Joseph;3130 what834 he saith559 to you, do.6213
|
55 及至埃及全地有了饑荒，眾民向法老哀求糧食，法老對他們說：「你們往約瑟那裏去，凡他所說的，你們都要作。」
|
|
56 And the famine7458 was1961 over5921 all3605 the face6440 of the earth:776 And Joseph3130 opened6605 853 all3605 the storehouses,834 and sold7666 unto the Egyptians;4714 and the famine7458 waxed sore2388 in the land776 of Egypt.4714
|
56 當時饑荒遍滿地上［earth］，約瑟開了各處的倉，賣糧給埃及人；在埃及地饑荒甚大。
|
|
57 And all3605 countries776 came935 into Egypt4714 to413 Joseph3130 for to buy7666 corn; because3588 that the famine7458 was so sore2388 in all3605 lands.776
|
57 各地的人都往埃及去，到約瑟那裏買糧穀［corn］，因為全地［all lands］的饑荒甚大。
|
