Det skjedde etter dette at munksjenken og bakeren til kongen av Egypt forbrøt seg mot sin herre, kongen av Egypt.

It happened after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker offended their lord, the king of Egypt.

Farao ble sint på sine to hoffmenn, overmunksjenken og overbakeren.

Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker.

Han satte dem i forvaring i huset til høvdingen for livvakten, i fengslet, samme sted hvor Josef var fanget.

He put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.

Høvdingen for livvakten satte dem under Josefs omsorg, og han betjente dem. De var i fengsel i mange dager.

The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he took care of them. They stayed in prison many days.

Begge drømte en drøm, hver sin drøm, samme natt, hver med sin egen betydning, munksjenken og bakeren til kongen av Egypt, som satt i fengslet.

They both dreamed a dream, each man his dream, in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were bound in the prison.

Om morgenen kom Josef til dem, så dem, og oppdaget at de var triste.

Joseph came in to them in the morning, and saw them, and saw that they were sad.

Han spurte faraos tjenestemenn som var sammen med ham i forvaring i hans herres hus: "Hvorfor ser dere så bedrøvet ut i dag?"

He asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in custody in his master's house, saying, "Why do you look so sad today?"

De sa til ham: "Vi har drømt en drøm, og det er ingen som kan tolke den." Josef sa til dem: "Tilhorer ikke drømmetydninger Gud? Fortell meg, vær så snill."

They said to him, "We have dreamed a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it." Joseph said to them, "Don't interpretations belong to God? Please tell it to me."

Munksjenken fortalte sin drøm til Josef og sa: "I min drøm var det et vintre foran meg.

The chief cupbearer told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, "In my dream, behold, a vine was in front of me,

Og på vintreet var det tre greiner. Så snart det begynte å skyte skudd, fikk det blomster, og drueklasene modnet.

and in the vine were three branches. It was as though it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and the clusters of it brought forth ripe grapes.

Faraos beger var i min hånd; jeg tok druene og presset dem i faraos beger, og jeg ga begeret i faraos hånd."

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."

Josef sa til ham: "Dette er tydningen: De tre greinene er tre dager.

Joseph said to him, "This is the interpretation of it: the three branches are three days.

Om tre dager vil farao løfte ditt hode og gjeninnsette deg i din stilling, og du skal gi farao begeret i hans hånd, slik du pleide å gjøre da du var hans munksjenk.

Within three more days, Pharaoh will lift up your head, and restore you to your office. You will give Pharaoh's cup into his hand, the way you did when you were his cupbearer.

Men kom meg i hu når det går deg godt, og vis meg velvilje, vær så snill, ved å nevne meg for farao, så jeg kan komme ut av denne forvaringen.

But remember me when it will be well with you, and show kindness, please, to me, and make mention of me to Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house.

For jeg ble stjålet bort fra hebreernes land, og her har jeg heller ikke gjort noe som fortjener at de setter meg i fangehullet."

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."

Da overbakeren så at tolkningen var god, sa han til Josef: "Jeg drømte også, og se, jeg hadde tre kurver med hvitt brød på hodet.

When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, "I also was in my dream, and, behold, three baskets of white bread were on my head.

I den øverste kurven var det all slags bakt gods for farao, og fuglene åt det ut av kurven på hodet mitt."

In the uppermost basket there was all kinds of baked food for Pharaoh, and the birds ate them out of the basket on my head."

Josef svarte: "Dette er tydningen av det: De tre kurvene er tre dager.

Joseph answered, "This is the interpretation of it. The three baskets are three days.

Om tre dager vil farao løfte ditt hode bort fra deg og henge deg på et tre, og fuglene skal ete kjøttet av deg."

Within three more days, Pharaoh will lift up your head from off you, and will hang you on a tree; and the birds will eat your flesh from off you."

Det skjedde den tredje dagen, som var faraos fødselsdag, at han laget et gjestebud for alle sine tjenere, og han løftet hodet til overmunksjenken og hodet til overbakeren blant sine tjenere.

It happened the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast for all his servants, and he lifted up the head of the chief cupbearer and the head of the chief baker among his servants.

Han gjeninnsatte overmunksjenken i hans posisjon igjen, og han ga begeret i faraos hånd.

He restored the chief cupbearer to his position again, and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand;

Men han hengte overbakeren, slik Josef hadde tolket for dem.

but he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.

Men overmunksjenken husket ikke Josef, men glemte ham.

Yet the chief cupbearer didn't remember Joseph, but forgot him.
