¹وحدث من بعد سنتين من الزمان ان فرعون رأى حلما. واذا هو واقف عند النهر.

¹And it came to pass at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed, and behold, he stood by the river.

²وهوذا سبع بقرات طالعة من النهر حسنة المنظر وسمينة اللحم. فارتعت في روضة.

²And behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fine-looking and fat-fleshed, and they fed in the reed-grass.

³ثم هوذا سبع بقرات اخرى طالعة وراءها من النهر قبيحة المنظر ورقيقة اللحم. فوقفت بجانب البقرات الاولى على شاطئ النهر.

³And behold, seven other kine came up after them out of the river, bad-looking and lean-fleshed, and stood by the kine on the bank of the river.

⁴فاكلت البقرات القبيحة المنظر والرقيقة اللحم البقرات السبع الحسنة المنظر والسمينة. واستيقظ فرعون

⁴And the kine that were bad-looking and lean-fleshed ate up the seven kine that were fine-looking and fat. And Pharaoh awoke.

⁵ثم نام فحلم ثانية. وهوذا سبع سنابل طالعة في ساق واحد سمينة وحسنة.

⁵And he slept and dreamed the second time; and behold, seven ears of corn grew up on one stalk, fat and good.

⁶ثم هوذا سبع سنابل رقيقة وملفوحة بالريح الشرقية نابتة وراءها.

⁶And behold, seven ears, thin and parched with the east wind, sprung up after them.

⁷فابتلعت السنابل الرقيقة السنابل السبع السمينة الممتلئة. واستيقظ فرعون واذا هو حلم.

⁷And the thin ears devoured the seven fat and full ears. And Pharaoh awoke; and behold, it was a dream.

⁸وكان في الصباح ان نفسه انزعجت. فارسل ودعا جميع سحرة مصر وجميع حكمائها وقصّ عليهم فرعون حلمه. فلم يكن من يعبّره لفرعون

⁸And it came to pass in the morning, that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the scribes of Egypt, and all the sages who were therein, and Pharaoh told them his dream; but [there was] none to interpret them to Pharaoh.

⁹ثم كلم رئيس السقاة فرعون قائلا انا اتذكر اليوم خطاياي.

⁹Then spoke the chief of the cup-bearers to Pharaoh, saying, I remember mine offences this day.

¹⁰فرعون سخط على عبديه فجعلني في حبس بيت رئيس الشرّط انا ورئيس الخبازين.

¹⁰Pharaoh was wroth with his bondmen, and put me in custody into the captain of the life-guard's house, me and the chief of the bakers.

¹¹فحلمنا حلما في ليلة واحدة انا وهو. حلمنا كل واحد بحسب تعبير حلمه.

¹¹And we dreamed a dream in one night, I and he; we dreamed each according to the interpretation of his dream.

¹²وكان هناك معنا غلام عبراني عبد لرئيس الشرط فقصصنا عليه. فعبّر لنا حلمينا. عبّر لكل واحد بحسب حلمه.

¹²And there was there with us a Hebrew youth, a bondman of the captain of the life-guard, to whom we told [them], and he interpreted to us our dreams; to each he interpreted according to his dream.

¹³وكما عبّر لنا هكذا حدث. ردّني انا الى مقامي واما هو فعلّقه

¹³And it came to pass, just as he interpreted to us, so it came about: me has he restored to my office, and him he hanged.

¹⁴فارسل فرعون ودعا يوسف. فاسرعوا به من السجن. فحلق وابدل ثيابه ودخل على فرعون.

¹⁴Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph; and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. And he shaved [himself], and changed his clothes, and came in to Pharaoh.

¹⁵فقال فرعون ليوسف حلمت حلما وليس من يعبّره. وانا سمعت عنك قولا انك تسمع احلاما لتعبّرها.

¹⁵And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have dreamt a dream, and there is none to interpret it. And I have heard say of thee, thou understandest a dream to interpret it.

¹⁶فاجاب يوسف فرعون قائلا ليس لي. الله يجيب بسلامة فرعون

¹⁶And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.

¹⁷فقال فرعون ليوسف اني كنت في حلمي واقفا على شاطئ النهر.

¹⁷And Pharaoh said to Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood on the bank of the river.

¹⁸وهوذا سبع بقرات طالعة من النهر سمينة اللحم وحسنة الصورة. فارتعت في روضة.

¹⁸And behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fat-fleshed and of fine form, and they fed in the reed-grass.

¹⁹ثم هوذا سبع بقرات اخرى طالعة وراءها مهزولة وقبيحة الصورة جدا ورقيقة اللحم. لم انظر في كل ارض مصر مثلها في القباحة.

¹⁹And behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor, and very ill-formed, and lean-fleshed -- such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness.

²⁰فأكلت البقرات الرقيقة والقبيحة البقرات السبع الاولى السمينة.

²⁰And the lean and bad kine ate up the seven first fat kine;

²¹فدخلت اجوافها ولم يعلم انها دخلت في اجوافها. فكان منظرها قبيحا كما في الاول. واستيقظت.

²¹and they came into their belly, and it could not be known that they had come into their belly; and their look was bad, as at the beginning. And I awoke.

²²ثم رأيت في حلمي وهوذا سبع سنابل طالعة في ساق واحد ممتلئة وحسنة.

²²And I saw in my dream, and behold, seven ears came up on one stalk, full and good.

²³ثم هوذا سبع سنابل يابسة رقيقة ملفوحة بالريح الشرقية نابتة وراءها.

²³And behold, seven ears, withered, thin, parched with the east wind, sprung up after them;

²⁴فابتلعت السنابل الرقيقة السنابل السبع الحسنة. فقلت للسحرة ولم يكن من يخبرني

²⁴and the thin ears devoured the seven good ears. And I told it to the scribes; but there was none to make it known to me.

²⁵فقال يوسف لفرعون حلم فرعون واحد. قد اخبر الله فرعون بما هو صانع.

²⁵And Joseph said to Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God will do he has made known to Pharaoh.

²⁶البقرات السبع الحسنة هي سبع سنين. والسنابل السبع الحسنة هي سبع سنين. هو حلم واحد.

²⁶The seven fine kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one.

²⁷والبقرات السبع الرقيقة القبيحة التي طلعت وراءها هي سبع سنين. والسنابل السبع الفارغة الملفوحة بالريح الشرقية تكون سبع سنين جوعا.

²⁷And the seven lean and bad kine that came up after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears, parched with the east wind, will be seven years of famine.

²⁸هو الامر الذي كلمت به فرعون. قد اظهر الله لفرعون ما هو صانع.

²⁸This is the word which I have spoken to Pharaoh: what God is about to do he has let Pharaoh see.

²⁹هوذا سبع سنين قادمة شبعا عظيما في كل ارض مصر.

²⁹Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout the land of Egypt.

³⁰ثم تقوم بعدها سبع سنين جوعا. فينسى كل الشبع في ارض مصر ويتلف الجوع الارض.

³⁰And there will arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine will waste away the land.

³¹ولا يعرف الشبع في الارض من اجل ذلك الجوع بعده. لانه يكون شديدا جدا.

³¹And the plenty will not be known afterwards in the land by reason of that famine; for it will be very grievous.

³²واما عن تكرار الحلم على فرعون مرّتين فلأن الامر مقرّر من قبل الله والله مسرع ليصنعه

³²And as regards the double repetition of the dream to Pharaoh, it is that the thing is established by God, and God will hasten to do it.

³³فالآن لينظر فرعون رجلا بصيرا وحكيما ويجعله على ارض مصر.

³³And now let Pharaoh look himself out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.

³⁴يفعل فرعون فيوكّل نظّارا على الارض وياخذ خمس غلّة ارض مصر في سبع سني الشبع.

³⁴Let Pharaoh do [this]: let him appoint overseers over the land, and take the fifth part of the land of Egypt during the seven years of plenty,

³⁵فيجمعون جميع طعام هذه السنين الجيّدة القادمة ويخزنون قمحا تحت يد فرعون طعاما في المدن ويحفظونه.

³⁵and let them gather all the food of these coming good years, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, for food in the cities, and keep [it].

³⁶فيكون الطعام ذخيرة للارض لسبع سني الجوع التي تكون في ارض مصر. فلا تنقرض الارض بالجوع

³⁶And let the food be as store for the land for the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt, that the land perish not through the famine.

³⁷فحسن الكلام في عيني فرعون وفي عيون جميع عبيده.

³⁷And the word was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his bondmen.

³⁸فقال فرعون لعبيده هل نجد مثل هذا رجلا فيه روح الله.

³⁸And Pharaoh said to his bondmen, Shall we find [one] as this, a man in whom the Spirit of God is?

³⁹ثم قال فرعون ليوسف بعدما اعلمك الله كل هذا ليس بصير وحكيم مثلك.

³⁹And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Since God has made all this known to thee, there is none [so] discreet and wise as thou.

⁴⁰انت تكون على بيتي وعلى فمك يقبّل جميع شعبي. الا ان الكرسي اكون فيه اعظم منك.

⁴⁰Thou shalt be over my house, and according to thy commandment shall all my people regulate themselves; only concerning the throne will I be greater than thou.

⁴¹ثم قال فرعون ليوسف انظر. قد جعلتك على كل ارض مصر.

⁴¹And Pharaoh said to Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.

⁴²وخلع فرعون خاتمه من يده وجعله في يد يوسف. والبسه ثياب بوص ووضع طوق ذهب في عنقه.

⁴²And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it on Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in clothes of byssus, and put a gold chain on his neck.

⁴³واركبه في مركبته الثانية ونادوا امامه اركعوا. وجعله على كل ارض مصر.

⁴³And he caused him to ride in the second chariot that he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee! and he set him over all the land of Egypt.

⁴⁴وقال فرعون ليوسف انا فرعون. فبدونك لا يرفع انسان يده ولا رجله في كل ارض مصر

⁴⁴And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I am Pharaoh; and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.

⁴⁵ودعا فرعون اسم يوسف صفنات فعنيح. واعطاه أسنات بنت فوطي فارع كاهن أون زوجة. فخرج يوسف على ارض مصر.

⁴⁵And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnath-paaneah, and gave him as wife Asnath the daughter of Potipherah the priest in On. And Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.

⁴⁶وكان يوسف ابن ثلاثين سنة لما وقف قدام فرعون ملك مصر. فخرج يوسف من لدن فرعون واجتاز في كل ارض مصر

⁴⁶And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from Pharaoh, and passed through the whole land of Egypt.

⁴⁷واثمرت الارض في سبع سني الشبع بحزم.

⁴⁷And in the seven years of plenty the land brought forth by handfuls.

⁴⁸فجمع كل طعام السبع سنين التي كانت في ارض مصر وجعل طعاما في المدن. طعام حقل المدينة الذي حواليها جعله فيها.

⁴⁸And he gathered up all the food of the seven years that was in the land of Egypt, and put the food in the cities; the food of the fields of the city, which were round about it, he laid up in it.

⁴⁹وخزن يوسف قمحا كرمل البحر كثيرا جدا حتى ترك العدد اذ لم يكن له عدد

⁴⁹And Joseph laid up corn as sand of the sea exceeding much, until they left off numbering; for it was without number.

⁵⁰وولد ليوسف ابنان قبل ان تأتي سنة الجوع. ولدتهما له اسنات بنت فوطي فارع كاهن أون.

⁵⁰And to Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asnath the daughter of Potipherah the priest in On bore to him.

⁵¹ودعا يوسف اسم البكر منسّى قائلا لان الله انساني كل تعبي وكل بيت ابي.

⁵¹And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh -- For God has made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house.

⁵²ودعا اسم الثاني افرايم قائلا لان الله جعلني مثمرا في ارض مذلّتي

⁵²And the name of the second he called Ephraim -- For God has caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.

⁵³ثم كملت سبع سني الشبع الذي كان في ارض مصر.

⁵³And the seven years of plenty that were in the land of Egypt were ended;

⁵⁴وابتدأت سبع سني الجوع تأتي كما قال يوسف. فكان جوع في جميع البلدان. واما جميع ارض مصر فكان فيها خبز.

⁵⁴and the seven years of the dearth began to come, according as Joseph had said. And there was dearth in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.

⁵⁵ولما جاعت جميع ارض مصر وصرخ الشعب الى فرعون لاجل الخبز قال فرعون لكل المصريين اذهبوا الى يوسف. والذي يقول لكم افعلوا.

⁵⁵And all the land of Egypt suffered from the dearth. And the people cried to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, Go to Joseph: what he says to you, that do.

⁵⁶وكان الجوع على كل وجه الارض. وفتح يوسف جميع ما فيه طعام وباع للمصريين. واشتّد الجوع في ارض مصر.

⁵⁶And the famine was on all the earth. And Joseph opened every place in which there was [provision], and sold grain to the Egyptians; and the famine was grievous in the land of Egypt.

⁵⁷وجاءت كل الارض الى مصر الى يوسف لتشتري قمحا. لان الجوع كان شديدا في كل الارض

⁵⁷And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph, to buy [grain], because the famine was grievous on the whole earth.
