Gênesis 40

1E aconteceu depois destas coisas, que o copeiro do rei do Egito e o padeiro transgrediram contra seu senhor o rei do Egito.

1And it came to pass after these things, that the butler of the king of Egypt and his baker had offended their lord the king of Egypt.

2E irou-se Faraó contra seus dois eunucos, contra o principal dos copeiros, e contra o principal dos padeiros:

2And Pharaoh was wroth against two of his officers, against the chief of the butlers, and against the chief of the bakers.

3E os pôs em prisão na casa do capitão dos da guarda, na casa do cárcere onde José estava preso.

3And he put them in ward in the house of the captain of the guard, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.

4E o capitão dos da guarda deu responsabilidade deles a José, e ele lhes servia: e estiveram dias na prisão.

4And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: and they continued a season in ward.

5E ambos, o copeiro e o padeiro do rei do Egito, que estavam detidos na prisão, viram um sonho, cada um seu sonho em uma mesma noite, cada um conforme a declaração de seu sonho.

5And they dreamed a dream both of them, each man his dream in one night, each man according to the interpretation of his dream, the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, which were bound in the prison.

6E veio a eles José pela manhã, e olhou-os, e eis que estavam tristes.

6And Joseph came in unto them in the morning, and looked upon them, and, behold, they were sad.

7E ele perguntou àqueles oficiais de Faraó, que estavam com ele na prisão da casa de seu senhor, dizendo: Por que parecem hoje mal vossos semblantes?

7And he asked Pharaoh's officers that were with him in the ward of his lord's house, saying, Wherefore look ye so sadly to day?

8E eles lhe disseram: Tivemos um sonho, e não há quem o declare. Então lhes disse José: Não são de Deus as interpretações? Contai-o a mim agora.

8And they said unto him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said unto them, Do not interpretations belong to God? tell me them, I pray you.

9Então o chefe dos copeiros contou seu sonho a José, e disse-lhe: Eu sonhava que via uma vide diante de mim,

9And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me;

10E na vide três sarmentos; e ela como que brotava, e surgia sua flor, vindo a amadurecer seus cachos de uvas:

10And in the vine were three branches: and it was as though it budded, and her blossoms shot forth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes:

11E que o copo de Faraó estava em minha mão, e tomava eu as uvas, e as espremia no copo de Faraó, e dava eu o copo em mão de Faraó.

11And 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.

12E disse-lhe José: Esta é sua declaração: Os três sarmentos são três dias:

12And Joseph said unto him, This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days:

13Ao fim de três dias Faraó te fará levantar a cabeça, e te restituirá a teu posto: e darás o copo a Faraó em sua mão, como costumavas quando eras seu copeiro.

13Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head, and restore thee unto thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler.

14Lembra-te, pois, de mim para contigo quando tiveres esse bem, e rogo-te que uses comigo de misericórdia, e faças menção de mim a Faraó, e me tires desta prisão:

14But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:

15Porque furtado fui da terra dos hebreus; e tampouco fiz aqui para que me houvessem de pôr no cárcere.

15For 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.

16E vendo o chefe dos padeiros que havia interpretado para o bem, disse a José: Também eu sonhava que via três cestos brancos sobre minha cabeça;

16When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph, I also was in my dream, and, behold, I had three white baskets on my head:

17E no cesto mais alto havia de todos os alimentos de Faraó, obra de padeiro; e que as aves as comiam do cesto de sobre minha cabeça.

17And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of bakemeats for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head.

18Então respondeu José, e disse: Esta é sua declaração: Os três cestos três dias são;

18And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation thereof: The three baskets are three days:

19Ao fim de três dias tirará Faraó tua cabeça de sobre ti, e te fará enforcar na forca, e as aves comerão tua carne de sobre ti.

19Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.

20E foi o terceiro dia o dia do aniversário de Faraó, e fez banquete a todos os seus servos: e levantou a cabeça do chefe dos copeiros, e a cabeça do chefe dos padeiros, entre seus servos.

20And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants.

21E fez voltar a seu ofício ao chefe dos copeiros; e deu ele o copo em mão de Faraó.

21And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand:

22Mas fez enforcar ao principal dos padeiros, como lhe havia declarado José.

22But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.

23E o chefe dos copeiros não se lembrou de José, ao invés disso lhe esqueceu.

23Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgat him.
