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

¹Zgodi se pa, ko so pretekli dveh let dnevi, da se je Faraonu sanjalo, in glej, stoji ob Nilu.

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

²Glej pa, iz reke stopa sedem krav, lepih in debelih, in pasle so se po travi.

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.

³In glej, sedem drugih krav pride za njimi iz reke, grdih in suhih, in postavijo se poleg onih krav na bregu reke.

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

⁴Tiste grde in suhe krave pa požro onih sedem lepih in debelih krav. Tedaj se prebudi Faraon.

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

⁵Ali zopet zaspi, in sanja se mu v drugič. In glej, sedem klasov je zraslo na enem steblu, polnih in lepih.

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

⁶Glej pa, sedem klasov drobnih, ki jih je vzhodni veter osmodil, požene za njimi.

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

⁷Drobni klasovi pa pogoltnejo sedem debelih in polnih klasov. In ko se Faraon zbudi, glej, sanje so bile.

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.

⁸In zjutraj, ko je bila zbegana duša njegova, pošlje in pokliče vse egiptovske pismouke in vse modrijane; njim pove Faraon sanje svoje, ali nobenega ni bilo, da bi jih razložil Faraonu.

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

⁹Tedaj ogovori veliki točaj Faraona in reče: Svojih grehov se spominjam danes.

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.

¹⁰Faraon se je raztogotil zoper hlapce svoje in me je dejal v zapor v hiši načelnika telesne straže, mene in velikega peka.

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

¹¹Imela sva pa sanje v isti noči jaz in on; primerno razlagi najinih sanj se je sanjalo nama.

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.

¹²Bil je pa tam z nama mladenič Hebrejec, hlapec načelnika telesne straže, ki nama je sanje najine razložil, kakor sva mu povedala; vsakemu primerno sanjam njegovim je razložil.

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

¹³In zgodilo se je tako, kakor je nama razložil: mene je postavil Faraon zopet v službo mojo, onega pa je obesil.

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.

¹⁴Pošlje torej Faraon in pokliče Jožefa, in hitro so ga pustili iz temnice; in ko se je obril in preoblekel, pride k Faraonu.

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.”

¹⁵Tedaj reče Faraon Jožefu: Imel sem sanje, a ni nikogar, da bi jih razložil. Slišal sem pa o tebi praviti: ko čuješ sanje, jih lahko razložiš.

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

¹⁶Odgovori pa Jožef Faraonu in reče: To ni moja reč: Bog bo odgovoril, kar je v srečo Faraonu.

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

¹⁷Reče torej Faraon Jožefu: V sanjah svojih, glej, sem stal na bregu Nila.

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

¹⁸In glej, iz reke stopa sedem krav, debelih in lepih, in pasle so se po travi.

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.

¹⁹Nato, glej, pride sedem drugih krav za njimi, suhih in zelo grdih in mršavih; nisem videl po grdosti njim podobnih v vsej deželi Egiptovski.

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

²⁰In požrle so te krave mršave in grde prejšnjih sedem krav debelih;

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.

²¹in dasi so jim prišle v trebuh, ni bilo tega zaznati, ampak bile so videti grde kakor poprej. In prebudil sem se.

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

²²Še sem videl v sanjah svojih, in glej, sedem klasov je zraslo na enem steblu, polnih in lepih.

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

²³Glej pa, sedem klasov drobnih in suhih, ki jih je vzhodni veter osmodil, je pognalo za njimi.

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.”

²⁴Tisti drobni klasi pa so pogoltnili sedem lepih klasov. In to sem povedal pismoukom, a nobenega ni bilo, ki bi mi razložil.

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

²⁵Tedaj reče Jožef Faraonu: Sanje Faraonove so ene: kar hoče storiti Bog, je razodel Faraonu.

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

²⁶Tistih sedem krav lepih je sedem let, in tistih sedem klasov lepih je sedem let; sanje so ene.

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.

²⁷Sedem krav pa, mršavih in grdih, ki so prišle za onimi, je sedem let, tudi sedem klasov praznih, ki jih je vzhodni veter osmodil, je sedem let lakote.

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

²⁸To je beseda, ki sem jo rekel Faraonu: Kar hoče Bog storiti, je pokazal Faraonu.

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

²⁹Glej, sedem let pride, ko bo velika obilost po vsej Egiptovski deželi.

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,

³⁰A za njimi pride sedem let lakote, v katerih se pozabi vsa tista obilost po deželi Egiptovski: trla namreč bo lakota to deželo;

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

³¹in nič se ne bo vedelo v deželi za obilost zavoljo lakote, ki pride potem, zato ker huda bode silno.

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

³²Da so se pa ponovile sanje Faraonu dvakrat, pomeni, da je Bog to stvar trdno sklenil, in Bog jo v kratkem izpolni.

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

³³Zdaj torej naj poskrbi Faraon za moža razumnega in modrega in ga naj postavi čez deželo Egiptovsko.

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.

³⁴To naj stori Faraon in postavi naj oblastnike tej deželi, da pobere petino pridelkov dežele Egiptovske v sedmih letih obilosti.

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.

³⁵Oni naj zbero vse žito dobrih let, ki pridejo, in zneso naj žito Faraonu pod roko, v živež po mestih, in ga shranijo.

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.”

³⁶In ta živež bodi v zalogo deželi za tistih sedem let lakote, ki bode v deželi Egiptovski, da ne pogine dežela od lakote.

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

³⁷In ta beseda je bila dobra v očeh Faraonovih in v očeh vseh služabnikov njegovih.

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

³⁸In Faraon reče služabnikom svojim: Najdemo li mar temu enakega moža, ki je v njem duh Božji?

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

³⁹Nato veli Faraon Jožefu: Ker ti je Bog razodel vse to, nihče ni razumen in moder kakor ti.

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.”

⁴⁰Ti bodeš čez hišo mojo in po povelju tvojem se bo ravnalo ljudstvo moje, samo za ta prestol bodem višji od tebe.

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

⁴¹Dalje reče Faraon Jožefu: Glej, stavim te čez vso deželo Egiptovsko.

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,

⁴²In Faraon sname pečatni prstan z roke svoje ter ga natakne na roko Jožefovo in veli mu obleči oblačila iz tenčice in zlato verižico mu dene okoli vratu.

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.

⁴³In ukaže, naj ga peljejo na drugem vozu njegovem, in klicali so pred njim: Priklonite se! In postavil ga je čez vso deželo Egiptovsko.

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.”

⁴⁴In reče Faraon Jožefu: Jaz sem Faraon, a brez tebe ne vzdigne nihče roke svoje ali noge svoje po vsej deželi Egiptovski.

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.

⁴⁵Imenoval pa je Faraon ime Jožefovo Zafnat-paneah [T. j. rešitelj sveta.], in dal mu je za ženo Asnato, hčer Potiferja, svečenika v Onu. In Jožef je šel vladat deželo Egiptovsko.

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.

⁴⁶Imel pa je Jožef trideset let, ko je stal pred Faraonom, kraljem egiptovskim. In Jožef je šel izpred obličja Faraonovega in je obhodil vso deželo Egiptovsko.

⁴⁷In the seven plenteous years the earth produced abundantly.

⁴⁷Rodila je pa zemlja v sedmih letih obilosti, kolikor so le nabrati mogli.

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.

⁴⁸Zbral je torej vse žito sedmih dobrih let, ki so bila v deželi Egiptovski, in shranil je živež po mestih; žito s polja okrog vsakega mesta je shranil v njem.

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

⁴⁹Tako je nabral Jožef žita silno mnogo, kakor peska morskega, da so nehali šteti, ker ga je bilo brez števila.

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

⁵⁰Jožefu pa sta se rodila dva sina, preden je prišlo leto lakote, katera mu je rodila Asnata, hči Potiferja, svečenika onskega.

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.”

⁵¹In imenoval je Jožef prvenca Manaseja, kajti, reče, Bog mi je dal pozabiti vse trpljenje moje in vso hišo mojega očeta.

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.”

⁵²Drugega pa je imenoval Efraima, kajti, reče, rodovitnega me je naredil Bog v deželi ponižanja mojega.

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

⁵³In ko je preteklo sedem let obilosti, ki je bila v deželi Egiptovski,

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.

⁵⁴je nastopilo sedem let lakote, kakor je bil povedal Jožef, in bila je lakota po vseh deželah, v vsej pa deželi Egiptovski je bilo kruha.

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.”

⁵⁵In ko je vsa dežela Egiptovska trpela lakoto, je vpilo ljudstvo k Faraonu zaradi kruha; Faraon pa reče vsem Egipčanom: Pojdite k Jožefu, in kar vam veli, storite!

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.

⁵⁶In lakota je bila po vsem površju zemlje. In Jožef je odprl vsa skladišča in prodajal Egipčanom, ker je lakota hudo stiskala deželo Egiptovsko.In iz vseh dežel so hodili v Egipt k Jožefu kupovat, zato ker je lakota hudo stiskala vso zemljo.

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

⁵⁷In iz vseh dežel so hodili v Egipt k Jožefu kupovat, zato ker je lakota hudo stiskala vso zemljo.
