التكوين 40

الكتاب المقدس

1 وَاتَّفَقَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ سَاقِيَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ وَالْخَبَّازَ أَذْنَبَا إِلَى سَيِّدِهِمَا مَلِكِ مِصْرَ،2 فَسَخَطَ فِرْعَوْنُ عَلَى خَصِيَّيْهِ: رَئِيسِ السُّقَاةِ وَرَئِيسِ الْخَبَّازِينَ،3 وَزَجَّهُمَا فِي مُعْتَقَلِ بَيْتِ رَئِيسِ الْحَرَسِ فِي السِّجْنِ، فِي الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي كَانَ يُوسُفُ مَحْبُوساً فِيهِ.4 فَوَلَّى رَئِيسُ الْحَرَسِ يُوسُفَ أَمْرَهُمَا، فَقَامَ عَلَى خِدْمَتِهِمَا، فَمَكَثَا فِي الْمُعْتَقَلِ أَيَّاماً.5 وَحَلُمَ كُلٌّ مِنْ سَاقِي مَلِكِ مِصْرَ وَخَبَّازِهِ الْمُعْتَقَلَيْنِ فِي السِّجْنِ حُلْماً فِي لَيْلَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ. وَكَانَ لِحُلْمِ كُلٍّ مِنْهُمَا مَعْنَاهُ الْخَاصُّ بِصَاحِبِهِ.6 فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِمَا يُوسُفُ فِي الصَّبَاحِ فَوَجَدَهُمَا مُكْتَئِبَيْنِ.7 فَسَأَلَهُمَا: «لِمَاذَا وَجْهَاكُمَا مُكَمَّدَانِ فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ؟»8 فَأَجَابَاهُ: «حَلُمَ كُلٌّ مِنَّا حُلْماً وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُفَسِّرُهُ». فَقَالَ يُوسُفُ: «أَلَيْسَتْ تَفَاسِيرُ الأَحْلامِ لِلهِ؟ حَدِّثَانِي بِهِمَا».9 فَسَرَدَ رَئِيسُ السُّقَاةِ حُلْمَهُ عَلَى يُوسُفَ. قَالَ: «رَأَيْتُ فِي حُلْمِي وَإذَا كَرْمَةٌ أَمَامِي،10 فِيهَا ثَلاثَةُ أَغْصَانٍ أَفْرَخَتْ ثُمَّ أَزْهَرَتْ، وَمَا لَبِثَتْ عَنَاقِيدُهَا أَنْ أَثْمَرَتْ عِنَباً نَاضِجاً.11 وَكَانَتْ كَأْسُ فِرْعَوْنَ فِي يَدِي، فَتَنَاوَلْتُ الْعِنَبَ وَعَصَرْتُهُ فِي كَأْسِ فِرْعَوْنَ وَوَضَعْتُ الْكَأْسَ فِي يَدِهِ».12 فَقَالَ لَهُ يُوسُفُ: «إِلَيْكَ تَفْسِيرَهُ: الثَّلاثَةُ الأَغْصَان هِيَ ثَلاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ.13 بَعْدَ ثَلاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ يَرْضَى عَنْكَ فِرْعَوْنُ، وَيَرُدُّكَ إِلَى مَنْزِلَتِكَ حَيْثُ تُنَاوِلُ فِرْعَوْنَ كَأْسَهُ، تَمَاماً كَمَا كُنْتَ مُعْتَاداً أَنْ تَفْعَلَ عِنْدَمَا كُنْتَ سَاقِيَهُ.14 إِنَّمَا إِذَا أَصَابَكَ خَيْرٌ فَاذْكُرْنِي وَأَحْسِنْ إِلَيَّ. اذْكُرْنِي لَدَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَأَخْرِجْنِي مِنْ هَذَا السِّجْنِ،15 لأَنَّنِي حُمِلْتُ عَنْوَةً مِنْ أَرْضِ الْعِبْرَانِيِّينَ، وَهُنَا أَيْضاً لَمْ أَجْنِ شَيْئاً لِيَزُجُّوا بِي فِي هَذَا السِّجْنِ».16 وَعِنْدَمَا رَأَى رَئِيسُ الْخَبَّازِينَ أَنَّ يُوسُفَ أَحْسَنَ التَّفْسِيرَ، قَالَ لَهُ: «رَأَيْتُ أَنَا أَيْضاً حُلْماً، وَإذَا بِثَلاثَةِ سِلالٍ بَيْضَاءَ عَلَى رَأْسِي.17 وَكَانَ السَّلُّ الأَعْلَى مَلِيئاً مِنْ طَعَامِ فِرْعَوْنَ مِمَّا يُعِدُّهُ الْخَبَّازُ، إِلّا أَنَّ الطُّيُورَ كَانَتْ تَلْتَهِمُهُ مِنَ السَّلِّ الَّذِي عَلَى رَأْسِي».18 فَقَالَ يُوسُفُ: «إِلَيْكَ تَفْسِيرَهُ: الثَّلاثَةُ السِّلالُ هِيَ ثَلاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ19 بَعْدَ ثَلاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ يَقْطَعُ فِرْعَوْنُ رَأْسَكَ وَيُعَلِّقُكَ عَلَى خَشَبَةٍ فَتَأْكُلُ الطُّيُورُ لَحْمَكَ».20 وَكَانَ الْيَوْمُ الثَّالِثُ هُوَ يَوْمُ عِيدِ مِيلادِ فِرْعَوْنَ، فَأَقَامَ مَأْدُبَةً لِجَمِيعِ رِجَالِهِ، وَأَحْضَرَ مِنَ السِّجْنِ رَئِيسَ السُّقَاةِ وَرَئِيسَ الْخَبَّازِينَ أَمَامَهُمْ.21 وَرَدَّ رَئِيسَ السُّقَاةِ إِلَى عَمَلِهِ، فَصَارَ يُقَدِّمُ الْكَأْسَ لِيَدِ فِرْعَوْنَ.22 أَمَّا رَئِيسُ الْخَبَّازِينَ فَقَدْ عَلَّقَهُ (عَلَى خَشَبَةٍ) مِثْلَمَا فَسَّرَ لَهُمَا يُوسُفُ حُلْمَيْهِمَا.23 وَلَكِنَّ رَئِيسَ السُّقَاةِ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ يُوسُفَ بَلْ نَسِيَهُ.

التكوين 40

English Standard Version

1 Some time after this, the cupbearer of the king of Egypt and his baker committed an offense against their lord the king of Egypt. (نح 1:11)2 And Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker,3 and he put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the prison where Joseph was confined. (تك 39:20)4 The captain of the guard appointed Joseph to be with them, and he attended them. They continued for some time in custody.5 And one night they both dreamed—the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison—each his own dream, and each dream with its own interpretation.6 When Joseph came to them in the morning, he saw that they were troubled.7 So he asked Pharaoh’s officers who were with him in custody in his master’s house, “Why are your faces downcast today?” (نح 2:2)8 They said to him, “We have had dreams, and there is no one to interpret them.” And Joseph said to them, “Do not interpretations belong to God? Please tell them to me.” (تك 41:15; تك 41:16; دا 2:28; دا 2:47)9 So the chief cupbearer told his dream to Joseph and said to him, “In my dream there was a vine before me,10 and on the vine there were three branches. As soon as it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and the clusters ripened into grapes.11 Pharaoh’s cup was in my hand, and I took the grapes and pressed them into Pharaoh’s cup and placed the cup in Pharaoh’s hand.”12 Then Joseph said to him, “This is its interpretation: the three branches are three days. (تك 40:18; تك 41:12; تك 41:26; دا 2:36)13 In three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your office, and you shall place Pharaoh’s cup in his hand as formerly, when you were his cupbearer. (تك 40:19; تك 40:22; 2مل 25:27; مز 3:3; إر 52:31)14 Only remember me, when it is well with you, and please do me the kindness to mention me to Pharaoh, and so get me out of this house.15 For I was indeed stolen out of the land of the Hebrews, and here also I have done nothing that they should put me into the pit.” (تك 37:28; تك 39:20)16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was favorable, he said to Joseph, “I also had a dream: there were three cake baskets on my head,17 and in the uppermost basket there were all sorts of baked food for Pharaoh, but the birds were eating it out of the basket on my head.”18 And Joseph answered and said, “This is its interpretation: the three baskets are three days. (تك 40:12)19 In three days Pharaoh will lift up your head—from you!—and hang you on a tree. And the birds will eat the flesh from you.” (تك 40:13; تك 40:22)20 On the third day, which was Pharaoh’s birthday, he made a feast for all his servants and lifted up the head of the chief cupbearer and the head of the chief baker among his servants. (تك 40:13; تك 40:19; مت 14:6; مر 6:21)21 He restored the chief cupbearer to his position, and he placed the cup in Pharaoh’s hand. (تك 40:13; نح 2:1)22 But he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them. (تك 40:19)23 Yet the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.
