¹[Ny nilazan'i Josefa ny nofin'i Farao, sy ny nanandratana azy ho mpanapaka any Egypta] Ary rehefa afaka roa taona mipaka, dia nanonofy Farao, fa, indro, nitsangana teo amoron'i Neily izy.

¹It happened at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh dreamed: and behold, he stood by the river.

²Koa, indreo, nisy ombivavy fito tsara tarehy sady matavy niakatra avy teo Neily ka nihinana teny amin'ny bararata.

²Behold, there came up out of the river seven cattle, sleek and fat, and they fed in the marsh grass.

³Ary indreo, nisy ombivavy fito hafa kosa ratsy tarehy sady mahia niakatra avy teo Neily nanaraka azy, ka dia nijanona teo anilan'ireo ombivavy teo amoron'i Neily.

³Behold, seven other cattle came up after them out of the river, ugly and thin, and stood by the other cattle on the brink of the river.

⁴Ary ireo ombivavy ratsy tarehy sady mahia nihinana ireo ombivavy fito tsara tarehy sady matavy. Dia nahatsiaro Farao.

⁴The ugly and thin cattle ate up the seven sleek and fat cattle. So Pharaoh awoke.

⁵Ary natory indray izy ka nanonofy fanindroany; ary, indro, nisy salohim-bary fito niseho tamin'ny tahony iray, sady vokatra no tsara.

⁵He slept and dreamed a second time: and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, healthy and good.

⁶Ary, indreo kosa, nisy salohim-bary fito maivam-boa sady main'ny rivotra avy any atsinanana, niseho nanaraka ireny.

⁶Behold, seven heads of grain, thin and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.

⁷Ary ny salohim-bary maivam-boa nitelina ny salohim-vary fito vokatra sy be voa. Dia nahatsiaro Farao, koa indro fa nofy ihany izany.

⁷The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven healthy and full ears. Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.

⁸Ary nony maraina, dia nitebiteby ny fanahiny, ka dia naniraka nampaka ny ombiasy rehetra tao Egypta sy ny olon-kendry rehetra tao izy; ary nambaran'i Farao tamin'ireny ny nofiny, kanjo tsy nisy na dia iray aza nahalaza izay heviny tamin'i Farao.

⁸It happened in the morning that his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all of Egypt’s magicians and wise men. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them to Pharaoh.

⁹Dia niteny tamin'i Farao ilay lehiben'ny mpitondra kapoaka ka nanao hoe: Tsaroako izao ny fahadisoako:

⁹Then the chief cupbearer spoke to Pharaoh, saying, “I remember my faults today.

¹⁰Farao dia tezitra tamin'ny mpanompony ka nanao ahy tao an-trano-maizina tao anatin'ny tranon'ny mpifehy ny mpiambina, dia izaho sy ilay lehiben'ny mpanao mofo.

¹⁰Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, me and the chief baker.

¹¹Ary nanonofy izahay indray alina, dia izaho sy izy; samy nanonofy araka ny hevitry ny nofinay avy izahay.

¹¹We dreamed a dream in one night, I and he. We dreamed each man according to the interpretation of his dream.

¹²Ary tao aminay dia nisy zatovo Hebreo anankiray, mpanompon'ny mpifehy ny mpiambina; dia nambaranay taminy ny nofinay, ka nolazainy taminay ny heviny; samy nilazany araka ny nofinay avy izahay.

¹²There was with us there a young man, a Hebrew, servant to the captain of the guard, and we told him, and he interpreted to us our dreams. To each man according to his dream he interpreted.

¹³Ary samy tonga araka izay efa nolazainy taminay indrindra izany: izaho nampodiny ho ao amin'ilay nipetrahako, fa izy kosa nahantony.

¹³It happened, as he interpreted to us, so it was: he restored me to my office, and he hanged him.”

¹⁴Dia naniraka Farao ka nampaka an'i Josefa, dia nalaina faingana niala tao an­davaka izy; ary nanaratra ny volom-bavany sy niova fitafiana izy, dia nankany amin'i Farao.

¹⁴Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon. He shaved himself, changed his clothing, and came in to Pharaoh.

¹⁵Ary hoy Farao tamin'i Josefa : Nanonofy aho, koa tsy misy mahalaza ny heviny; ary izaho nahare fa ianao, hono, raha mandre nofy, dia mahalaza ny heviny.

¹⁵Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have dreamed a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. I have heard it said of you, that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”

¹⁶Ary Josefa dia namaly an'i Farao ka nanao hoe: Tsy ahy izany; Andriamanitra no hilaza izay valiny hiadanan'i Farao.

¹⁶Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, “It isn’t in me. God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.”

¹⁷Ary hoy Farao tamin'i Josefa: Nofiko fa indro, hono, nitsangana teo amoron'i Neily aho;

¹⁷Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, “In my dream, behold, I stood on the brink of the river:

¹⁸koa, indreo, nisy ombivavy fito matavy sady tsara tarehy niakatra avy teo Neily; ary nihinana teny amin'ny bararata ireny.

¹⁸and behold, there came up out of the river seven cattle, fat and sleek. They fed in the marsh grass,

¹⁹Ary, indreo, nisy ombivavy fito hafa koa niakatra nanaraka ireny, mihozohozo sady ratsy tarehy indrindra no mahia, ka tsy mbola hitako izay ratsy toa azy teto amin'ny tany Egypta rehetra.

¹⁹and behold, seven other cattle came up after them, poor and very ugly and thin, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for ugliness.

²⁰Ary ireo ombivavy fito mahia sady ratsy tarehy dia nihinana ireo ombivavy fito matavy izay nialoha azy.

²⁰The thin and ugly cattle ate up the first seven fat cattle,

²¹Ary rehefa nihinana azy izy, dia tsy fantatra akory fa efa mby ao an-kibony ireny; fa mbola ratsy tarehy tahaka ny tamin'ny fahiny ihany izy. Dia nahatsiaro aho.

²¹and when they had eaten them up, it couldn’t be known that they had eaten them, but they were still ugly, as at the beginning. So I awoke.

²²Ary hitako tamin'ny nofiko indray, ka, indreo nisy salohim-bary fito niseho tamin'ny tahony iray, sady vokatra no tsara;

²²I saw in my dream, and behold, seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, full and good:

²³ary, indreo kosa, nisy salohim-bary fito sady malazo no maivam-boa, main'ny rivotra avy any atsinanana, niseho nanaraka ireny;

²³and behold, seven heads of grain, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them.

²⁴ary ny salohim-bary maivam-boa dia nitelina ny salohim-bary fito vokatra. Ary nolazaiko tamin'ny ombiasy izany, nefa tsy nisy nahalaza ny heviny tamiko.

²⁴The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads of grain. I told it to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me.”

²⁵Ary hoy Josefa tamin'i Farao: Ny nofin'i Farao dia iray ihany; izay efa hataon'Andriamanitra no nambarany tamin'i Farao.

²⁵Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dream of Pharaoh is one. What God is about to do he has declared to Pharaoh.

²⁶Ny ombivavy fito tsara tarehy dia fito taona; ary ny salohim-bary fito vokatra koa dia fito taona; iray ihany ny nofy.

²⁶The seven good cattle are seven years; and the seven good heads of grain are seven years. The dream is one.

²⁷Ary ny ombivavy fito mahia sady ratsy tarehy, izay niakatra nanaraka ireny, dia fito taona; ary ny salohim-bary fito tsy nisy voa sady main'ny rivotra avy any atsinanana, dia ho fito taona mosarena.

²⁷The seven thin and ugly cattle that came up after them are seven years, and also the seven empty heads of grain blasted with the east wind; they will be seven years of famine.

²⁸Izany dia ilay efa nolazaiko tamin'i Farao teo hoe: Izay efa hataon'Andriamanitra no asehony amin'i Farao.

²⁸That is the thing which I spoke to Pharaoh. What God is about to do he has shown to Pharaoh.

²⁹Indro, hisy fito taona zina indrindra eran'ny tany Egypta rehetra;

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

³⁰ary manaraka izany kosa dia hisy fito taona mosarena, ka ho hadino ny fahavokarana be rehetra teo amin'ny tany Egypta ary ho ritry ny mosary ny tany;

³⁰There will arise after them seven years of famine, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land,

³¹ary ny fahavokarana eo amin'ny tany tsy ho fantatra noho izany mosary manaraka azy izany; fa ho mafy indrindra izany.

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

³²Ary naverina indroa ny nofin'i Farao, satria efa voatendrin'Andriamanitra izany zavatra izany ka hotanterahin'Andriamanitra faingana.

³²The dream was doubled to Pharaoh, because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.

³³Koa ankehitriny aoka Farao hizaha lehilahy manan-tsaina sady hendry ka hanendry azy hanapaka ny tany Egypta.

³³“Now therefore let Pharaoh look for a discreet and wise man, and set him over the land of Egypt.

³⁴Aoka hanao izany Farao, ary aoka izy hanendry mpikarakara hitandrina ny tany sy hamory ny ampahadimin'ny vokatry ny tany Egypta amin'ny taon-jina fito.

³⁴Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint overseers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt’s produce in the seven plenteous years.

³⁵Ary aoka izy ireo hanangona ny hanina rehetra amin'ireo taona tsara ho avy ireo ka hamory vary be amin'ny anaran'i Farao ho fihinana any amin'ny tanana maro, ka aoka hitahiry izany izy

³⁵Let them gather all the food of these good years that come, and lay up grain under the hand of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it.

³⁶Ary aoka izany hanina izany hotehirizina ao amin'ny tany ho amin'ny fito taona mosarena, izay ho tonga amin'ny tany Egypta, mba tsy ho simban'ny mosary ny tany.

³⁶The food will be for a store to the land against the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt; that the land not perish through the famine.”

³⁷Ary sitrak'i Farao sy ny mpanompony rehetra izany hevitra izany.

³⁷The thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants.

³⁸Dia hoy Farao tamin'ny mpanompony: Hahita lehilahy tahaka io, izay manana ny Fanahin'Andriamanitra ao anatiny, va isika?

³⁸Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?”

³⁹Ary hoy koa Farao tamin'i Josefa: Satria efa nampahafantarin'Andriamanitra anao izany rehetra izany, dia tsy misy lehilahy manan-tsaina sady hendry tahaka anao;

³⁹Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Because God has shown you all of this, there is none so discreet and wise as you.

⁴⁰koa ianao no hanapaka ny ato an-tranoko, ary araka ny teninao no hitondrana ny oloko rehetra; ny seza fiandrianana ihany no hahalehibe ahy noho ianao.

⁴⁰You shall be over my house, and according to your word will all my people be ruled. Only in the throne I will be greater than you.”

⁴¹Ary hoy indray Farao tamin'i Josefa: Indro, efa nanendry anao hanapaka ny tany Egypta rehetra aho.

⁴¹Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Behold, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.”

⁴²Dia nesorin'i Farao ny peratra tamin'ny tanany ka nataony tamin'ny tànan'i Josefa, dia nampitafiny rongony fotsy madinika izy, ary nasiany rojo volamena ny vozony;

⁴²Pharaoh took off his signet ring from his hand, and put it on Joseph’s hand, and arrayed him in robes of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck,

⁴³dia nampitaingeniny teo anatin'ny kalesiny faharoa izy, ary ny vahoaka niantso teo alohany nanao hoe: Mandohaleha; ary notendreny ho mpanapaka ny tany Egypta rehetra izy.

⁴³and he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had. They cried before him, “Bow the knee!” He set him over all the land of Egypt.

⁴⁴Ary hoy Farao tamin'i Josefa: Izaho no Farao, ary raha tsy teninao, dia tsy hisy olona hanetsika ny tànany na ny tongony eto amin'ny tany Egypta rehetra.

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

⁴⁵Ary nataon'i Farao hoe Zafenata-panea no anaran'i Josefa; dia nomeny azy Asenata, zanakavavin'i Poti-fera, mpisorona tao Ona, ho vadiny. Ary Josefa nandeha nitety ny tany Egypta.

⁴⁵Pharaoh called Joseph’s name Zaphenath-Paneah; and he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On as a wife. Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.

⁴⁶Ary efa telo-polo taona Josefa, raha niseho teo anatrehan'i Farao, mpanjakan'i Egypta. Dia niala teo anatrehan'i Farao Josefa ka nandeha nitety ny tany Egypta rehetra.

⁴⁶Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.

⁴⁷Ary ny tany dia nahavokatra tsy omby fàmpana tamin'ny taon-jina fito.

⁴⁷In the seven plenteous years the earth produced abundantly.

⁴⁸Dia namory ny hanina rehetra tamin'izany fito taona izany teo amin'ny tany Egypta izy ka nitahiry izany tao amin'ny tanàna rehetra: ny vokatry ny saha manodidina ny isan-tanàna dia notehiriziny tao anatin'ny tanàna.

⁴⁸He gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities: the food of the field, which was around every city, he laid up in the same.

⁴⁹Ary Josefa namory vary tahaka ny fasika any an-dranomasina, eny, be indrindra, ka tsy nanisa intsony izy, satria efa tsy hita isa.

⁴⁹Joseph laid up grain as the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting, for it was without number.

⁵⁰Ary nisy zazalahy roa naterak'i Asenata, zanakavavin'i Poti-fera, mpisorona tao Ona, tamin'i Josefa, raha tsy mbola tonga ny taona mosarena.

⁵⁰To Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bore to him.

⁵¹Ary ny anaran'ny lahimatoa dia nataon'i Josefa hoe Manase; fa hoy izy: Andriamanitra efa nampanadino ahy ny fahoriako rehetra sy izay rehetra tao an-tranon'ny raiko.

⁵¹Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh, “Manasseh” sounds like the Hebrew for “forget.” “For,” he said, “God has made me forget all my toil, and all my father’s house.”

⁵²Ary ny anaran'ny zandriny kosa nataony hoe Efraima; fa hoy izy: Andriamanitra efa nahamaro ahy teto amin'ny tanin'ny fahoriako.

⁵²The name of the second, he called Ephraim “Ephraim” sounds like the Hebrew for “twice fruitful.” : “For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”

⁵³Ary tapitra ny taon-jina fito teo amin'ny tany Egypta;

⁵³The seven years of plenty, that were in the land of Egypt, came to an end.

⁵⁴dia niandoha kosa ny fito taona mosarena, araka izay efa nolazain'i Josefa; ary nisy mosary tany amin'ny tany rehetra; nefa eran'ny tany Egypta rehetra dia mbola nisy hanina ihany.

⁵⁴The seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.

⁵⁵Ary rehefa mosarena ny tany Egypta rehetra, dia nitaraina nangataka hanina tamin'i Farao ny olona; ary hoy Farao tamin'ny Egyptiana rehetra: Mankanesa any amin'i Josefa; ary izay holazainy aminareo dia ataovy.

⁵⁵When all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread, and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do.”

⁵⁶Ary ny mosary dia tany amin'ny tany rehetra. Ary Josefa namoha ny trano fitehirizam-bary ka nivaro-bary tamin'ny Egyptiana.Ary ny tany rehetra nankany Egypta ho any amin'i Josefa mba hividy vary; fa efa mafy ny mosary tany amin'ny tany rehetra.

⁵⁶The famine was over all the surface of the earth. Joseph opened all the store houses, and sold to the Egyptians. The famine was severe in the land of Egypt.

⁵⁷Ary ny tany rehetra nankany Egypta ho any amin'i Josefa mba hividy vary; fa efa mafy ny mosary tany amin'ny tany rehetra.

⁵⁷All countries came into Egypt, to Joseph, to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all the earth.
