Now then come, let us kill him, and cast him into one of the pits; and we will say, An evil wild beast has devoured him; and we shall see what his dreams will be.
Greek · SeptuagintΝῦν οὖν δεῦτε ἀποκτείνωμεν αὐτὸν, καὶ ῥίψωμεν αὐτὸν εἰς ἕνα τῶν λάκκων· καὶ ἐροῦμεν, θηρίον πονηρὸν κατέφαγεν αὐτόν· καὶ ὀψόμεθα, τί ἔσται τὰ ἐνύπνια αὐτοῦ.
And Ruben having heard it, rescued him out of their hands, and said, Let us not kill him.

And Ruben said to them, Shed not blood; cast him into one of these pits in the wilderness, but do not lay [your] hand upon him; that he might rescue him out of their hands, and restore him to his father.
Greek · SeptuagintΕἶπε δὲ αὐτοῖς Ῥουβὴν, μὴ ἐκχέητε αἷμα· ἐμβάλλετε αὐτὸν εἰς ἕνα τῶν λάκκων τούτων τῶν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, χεῖρα δὲ μὴ ἐπενέγκητε αὐτῷ· ὅπως ἐξέληται αὐτὸν ἐκ τῶν χειρῶν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἀποδῷ αὐτὸν τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ.

And they took him and cast him into the pit; and the pit was empty, it had not water.

Come, let us sell him to these Ismaelites, but let not our hands be upon him, because he is our brother and our flesh; and his brethren hearkened.
Greek · SeptuagintΔεῦτε ἀποδώμεθα αὐτὸν τοῖς Ἰσμαηλίταις τούτοις· αἱ δὲ χεῖρες ἡμῶν μὴ ἔστωσαν ἐπʼ αὐτὸν, ὅτι ἀδελφὸς ἡμῶν καὶ σὰρξ ἡμῶν ἐστίν. Ἤκουσαν δὲ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ.

And Aunan, knowing that the seed should not be his—it came to pass when he went in to his brother's wife, that he spilled [it] upon the ground, so that he should not give seed to his brother's wife.
Greek · SeptuagintΓνοὺς δὲ Αὐνὰν, ὅτι οὐκ αὐτῷ ἔσται τὸ σπέρμα, ἐγένετο ὅταν εἰσήρχετο πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτου, ἐξέχεεν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, τοῦ μὴ δοῦναι σπέρμα τῷ ἀδελφῷ αὐτοῦ.

Greek · SeptuagintΕἶπε δὲ Ἰούδας Θάμαρ τῇ νύμφῃ αὐτοῦ, κάθου χήρα ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρός σου, ἕως μέγας γένηται Σηλὼμ ὁ υἱός μου· εἶπε γάρ, μή ποτε ἀποθάνῃ καὶ οὗτος, ὥσπερ καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ. Ἀπελθοῦσα δὲ Θάμαρ ἐκάθητο ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῆς.

And having taken off the garments of her widowhood from her, she put on a veil, and ornamented her face, and sat by the gates of Ænan, which is in the way to Thamna, for she saw that Selom was grown; but he gave her not to him for a wife.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ περιελομένη τὰ ἱμάτια τῆς χηρεύσεως ἀφʼ ἑαυτῆς, περιέβαλε τὸ θέριστρον, καὶ ἐκαλλωπίσατο, καὶ ἐκάθισε πρὸς ταῖς πύλαις Αἰνὰν, ἥ ἐστιν ἐν παρόδῳ Θαμνά· ἴδε γὰρ ὅτι μέγας γέγονε Σηλὼμ, αὐτὸς δὲ οὐκ ἔδωκεν αὐτὴν αὐτῷ γυναῖκα.
And when Judas saw her, he thought her to be a harlot; for she covered her face, and he knew her not.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἰδὼν αὐτὴν Ἰούδας ἔδοξεν αὐτὴν πόρνην εἶναι· κατεκαλύψατο γὰρ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτῆς καὶ οὐκ ἐπέγνω αὐτήν.
And he went out of his way to her, and said to her, Let me come in to thee; for he knew not that she was his daughter-in-law; and she said, What wilt thou give me if thou shouldest come in to me?
Greek · SeptuagintἘξέκλινε δὲ πρὸς αὐτὴν τὴν ὁδόν· καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ, ἔασόν με εἰσελθεῖν πρός σε· οὐ γὰρ ἔγνω, ὅτι νύμφη αὐτοῦ ἐστίν· ἡ δὲ εἶπε, τί μοι δώσεις, ἐὰν εἰσέλθῃς πρός με;
And he said, I will send thee a kid of the goats from my flock; and she said, [Well], if thou wilt give me an earnest, until thou send it.
Greek · SeptuagintὉ δὲ εἶπεν, ἐγώ σοι ἀποστελλῶ ἔριφον αἰγῶν ἐκ τῶν προβάτων μον· ἡ δὲ εἶπεν, ἐὰν δῷς μοι ἀῤῥαβῶνα, ἕως τοῦ ἀποστεῖλαί σε.
And he said, What is the earnest that I shall give thee? and she said, Thy ring, and thy bracelet, and the staff in thy hand; and he gave them to her, and went in to her, and she conceived by him.
Greek · SeptuagintὉ δὲ εἶπε, τίνα τὸν ἀῤῥαβῶνά σοι δώσω; ἡ δὲ εἶπε, τὸν δακτύλιόν σου, καὶ τὸν ὁρμίσκον, καὶ τὴν ῥάβδον τὴν ἐν τῇ χειρίσου. Καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῇ, καὶ εἰσῆλθε πρὸς αὐτήν· καὶ ἐν γαστρὶ ἔλαβεν ἐξ αὐτοῦ.
And she arose and departed, and took her veil from off her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἀναστᾶσα ἀπῆλθε, καὶ περιείλετο τὸ θέριστρον αὐτῆς ἀφʼ ἑαυτῆς, καὶ ἐνεδύσατο τὰ ἱμάτια τῆς χηρεύσεως αὐτῆς.
And Judas sent the kid of the goats by the hand of his shepherd the Odollamite, to receive the pledge from the woman; and he found her not.
Greek · SeptuagintἈπέστειλε δὲ Ἰούδας τὸν ἔριφον ἐξ αἰγῶν ἐν χειρὶ τοῦ ποιμένος αὐτοῦ τοῦ Ὀδολλαμείτου, κομίσασθαι παρὰ τῆς γυναικὸς τὸν ἀῤῥαβῶνα· καὶ οὐχ εὗρεν αὐτήν.
And he asked the men of the place, Where is the harlot who was in Ænan by the way-side? and they said, There was no harlot here.
Greek · SeptuagintἘπηρώτησε δὲ τοὺς ἄνδρας τοὺς ἐκ τοῦ τόπου, ποῦ ἐστιν ἡ πόρνη ἡ γενομένη ἐν Αἰνὰν ἐπὶ τῆς ὁδοῦ; καὶ εἶπαν, οὐκ ἦν ἐνταῦθα πόρνη.
And he returned to Judas, and said, I have not found her; and the men of the place say, There is no harlot here.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἀπεστράφη πρὸς Ἰούδαν, καὶ εἶπεν, οὐχ εὗρον· καὶ οἱ ἄνθρωποι οἱ ἐκ τοῦ τόπου λέγουσι, μὴ εἶναι ὧδε πόρνην.
And Judas said, Let her have them, but let us not be ridiculed; I sent this kid, but thou hast not found her.
Greek · SeptuagintΕἶπε δὲ Ἰούδας, ἐχέτω αὐτά· ἀλλὰ μή ποτε καταγελασθῶμεν· ἐγὼ μὲν ἀπέσταλκα τὸν ἔριφον τοῦτον, σὺ δὲ οὐχ εὕρηκας.
And it came to pass after three months, that it was told Judas, saying, Thamar thy daughter-in-law has grievously played the harlot, and behold she is with child by whoredom; and Judas said, Bring her out, and let her be burnt.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγένετο δὲ μετὰ τρίμηνον ἀνηγγέλη τῷ Ἰούδα, λέγοντες, ἐκπεπόρνευκε Θάμαρ ἡ νύμφη σου, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐν γαστρὶ ἔχει ἐκ πορνείας· Εἶπε δὲ Ἰούδας, ἐξαγάγετε αὐτὴν, καὶ κατακαυθήτω.
And as they were bringing her, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, I am with child by the man whose these things are; and she said, See whose is this ring and bracelet and staff.
Greek · SeptuagintΑὐτὴ δὲ ἀγομένη ἀπέστειλε πρὸς τὸν πενθερὸν αὐτὴς, λέγουσα, ἐκ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου οὕτινος ταῦτά ἐστιν, ἐγὼ ἐν γαστρὶ ἔχω· καὶ εἶπεν, ἐπίγνωθι τίνος ὁ δακτύλιος, καὶ ὁ ὁρμίσκος καὶ ἡ ῥάβδος αὕτη.
And Judas knew [them], and said, Thamar is cleared rather than I, forasmuch as I gave her not to Selom my son: and he knew her not again.
Greek · SeptuagintἘπέγνω δὲ Ἰούδας, καὶ εἶπε, δεδικαίωται Θάμαρ ἢ ἐγώ· οὗ ἕνεκεν οὐκ ἔδωκα αὐτὴν Σηλὼμ τῷ υἱῷ μου· Καὶ οὐ προσέθετο ἔτι τοῦ γνῶναι αὐτήν.
And it came to pass when she was in labour, that she also had twins in her womb.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγένετο δὲ ἡνίκα ἔτικτε, καὶ τῇδε ἦν δίδυμα ἐν τῇ γαστρὶ αὐτῆς.
And it came to pass as she was bringing forth, one thrust forth his hand, and the midwife having taken hold of it, bound upon his hand a scarlet [thread], saying, This one shall come out first.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ τίκτειν αὐτὴν, ὁ εἷς προεξήνεγκεν τὴν χεῖρα· λαβοῦσα δὲ ἡ μαῖα, ἔδησεν ἐπὶ τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ κόκκινον, λέγουσα, οὗτος ἐξελεύσεται πρότερος.
And when he drew back his hand, then immediately came forth his brother; and she said, Why has the barrier been cut through because of thee? and she called his name, Phares.
Greek · SeptuagintὩς δὲ ἐπισυνήγαγε τὴν χεῖρα, καὶ εὐθὺς ἐξῆλθεν ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ· ἡ δὲ εἶπε, τί διεκόπη διὰ σὲ φραγμός; καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, Φαρές.
And after this came forth his brother, on whose hand was the scarlet thread; and she called his name, Zara.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ μετὰ τοῦτο ἐξῆλθεν ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ, ἐφʼ ᾧ ἦν ἐπὶ τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ τὸ κόκκινον· καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, Ζαρά.
And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Petephres the eunuch of Pharao, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ismaelites, who brought him down thither.
Greek · SeptuagintἸωσὴφ δὲ κατήχθη εἰς Αἴγυπτον· καὶ ἐκτήσατο αὐτὸν Πετεφρὴς ὁ εὐνοῦχος Φαραὼ, ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος, ἀνὴρ Αἰγύπτιος, ἐκ χειρῶν τῶν Ἰσμαηλιτῶν, οἳ κατήγαγον αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ.
And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house with his lord the Egyptian.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἦν Κύριος μετὰ Ἰωσήφ· καὶ ἦν ἀνὴρ ἐπιτυγχάνων· καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ παρὰ τῷ κυρίῳ αὐτοῦ τῷ Αἰγυπτίῳ.
And his master knew that the Lord was with him, and the Lord prospers in his hands whatsoever he happens to do.
Greek · SeptuagintἬδει δὲ ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ὁ Κύριος ἦν μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὅσα ἐὰν ποιῇ, Κύριος εὐοδοῖ ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτοῦ.
And Joseph found grace in the presence of his lord, and was well-pleasing to him; and he set him over his house, and all that he had he gave into the hand of Joseph.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εὗρεν Ἰωσὴφ χάριν ἐναντίον τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ, καὶ εὐηρέστησεν αὐτῷ. Καὶ κατέστησε αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ· καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἦν αὐτῷ, ἔδωκε διὰ χειρὸς Ἰωσήφ.
And it came to pass after that he was set over his house, and over all that he had, that the Lord blessed the house of the Egyptian for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the Lord was on all his possessions in the house, and in his field.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγένετο δὲ μετὰ τὸ καταστῆναι αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπὶ πάντα ὅσα ἦν αὐτῷ, καὶ ηὐλόγησε Κύριος τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Αἰγυπτίου διὰ Ἰωσήφ· καὶ ἐγενήθη εὐλογία Κυρίου ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ὑπάρχουσιν αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ, καὶ ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ αὐτοῦ.
And he committed all that he had into the hands of Joseph; and he knew not of anything that belonged to him, save the bread which he himself ate. And Joseph was handsome in form, and exceedingly beautiful in countenance.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐπέτρεψε πάντα ὅσα ἦν αὐτῷ, εἰς χεῖρας Ἰωσήφ· καὶ οὐκ ᾔδει τῶν καθʼ αὑτὸν οὐδὲν, πλὴν τοῦ ἄρτου, οὗ ἤσθιεν αὐτός. Καὶ ἦν Ἰωσὴφ καλὸς τῷ εἴδει, καὶ ὡραῖος τῇ ὄψει σφόδρα.
And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph, and said, Lie with me.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα, καὶ ἐπέβαλεν ἡ γυνὴ τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῆς ἐπὶ Ἰωσήφ· καὶ εἶπεν, κοιμήθητι μετʼ ἐμοῦ.
But he would not; but said to his master's wife, If because of me my master knows nothing in his house, and has given into my hands all things that belong to him:
Greek · SeptuagintὉ δὲ οὐκ ἤθελεν· εἶπε δὲ τῇ γυναικὶ τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ, εἰ ὁ κύριός μου οὐ γινώσκει διʼ ἐμὲ οὐδὲν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐστὶν αὐτῷ ἔδωκεν εἰς τὰς χεῖράς μου,
and in this house there is nothing above me, nor has anything been kept back from me, but thou, because thou art his wife—how then shall I do this wicked thing, and sin against God?
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ οὐχ ὑπερέχει ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ ταύτῆ οὐθὲν ἐμοῦ, οὐδὲ ὑπεξῄρηται ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ οὐδὲν, πλὴν σοῦ, διὰ τὸ σὲ γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ εἶναι, καὶ πῶς ποιήσω τὸ ῥῆμα τὸ πονηρὸν τοῦτο, καὶ ἁμαρτήσομαι ἐναντίον τοῦ Θεοῦ;
And when she talked with Joseph day by day, and he hearkened not to her to sleep with her, so as to be with her,
Greek · SeptuagintἩνίκα δὲ ἐλάλει τῷ Ἰωσὴφ ἡμέραν ἐξ ἡμέρας, καὶ οὐχ ὑπήκουεν αὐτῇ καθεύδειν μετʼ αὐτῆς, τοῦ συγγενέσθαι αὐτῇ.
it came to pass on a certain day, that Joseph went into the house to do his business, and there was no one of the household within.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγένετο δὲ τοιαύτη τις ἡμέρα, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ἰωσὴφ εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν ποιεῖν τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐθεὶς ἦν τῶν ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ ἔσω.
And she caught hold of him by his clothes, and said, Lie with me; and having left his clothes in her hands, he fled, and went forth.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐπεσπάσατο αὐτὸν τῶν ἱματίων, λέγουσα, κοιμήθητι μετʼ ἐμοῦ· καὶ καταλιπὼν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῆς ἔφυγε, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω.
And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his clothes in her hands, and fled, and gone forth,
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐγένετο ὡς εἶδεν ὅτι καταλιπὼν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῆς ἔφυγε, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω,
that she called those that were in the house, and spoke to them, saying, See, he has brought in to us a Hebrew servant to mock us—he came in to me, saying, Lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ ἐκάλεσε τοὺς ὄντας ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, λέγουσα, ἴδετε, εἰσήγαγε ἡμῖν παῖδα Ἐβραῖον, ἐμπαίζειν ἡμῖν· εἰσῆλθε πρός με, λέγων, κοιμήθητι μετʼ ἐμοῦ· καὶ ἐβόησα φωνῇ μεγάλῃ.
And when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, having left his clothes with me, he fled, and went forth out.
Greek · SeptuagintἘν δὲ τῷ ἀκοῦσαι αὐτὸν, ὅτι ὕψωσα τὴν φωνήν μου καὶ ἐβόησα, καταλιπὼν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ παρʼ ἐμοὶ ἔφυγε, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω.
So she leaves the clothes by her, until the master came to his house.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ καταλιμπάνει τὰ ἱμάτια παρʼ ἑαυτῇ, ἕως ἦλθεν ὁ κύριος εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ.
And she spoke to him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, whom thou broughtest in to us, came in to me to mock me, and said to me, I will lie with thee.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ κατὰ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα, λέγουσα, εἰσῆλθε πρός με ὁ παῖς ὁ Ἑβραῖος, ὃν εἰσήγαγες πρὸς ἡμᾶς, ἐμπαῖξαί μοι· καὶ εἶπέ μοι, κοιμηθήσομαι μετὰ σοῦ.
And when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, having left his clothes with me, he fled and departed forth.
Greek · SeptuagintὩς δὲ ἤκοῦσεν, ὅτι ὕψωσα τὴν φωνήν μου καὶ ἐβόησα, καταλιπὼν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ παρʼ ἐμοὶ ἔφυγε, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω.
And it came to pass, when his master heard all the words of his wife, that she spoke to him, saying, Thus did thy servant to me, that he was very angry.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγένετο δὲ, ὡς ἤκουσεν ὁ κύριος τὰ ῥήματα τῆς γυναικὸς αὐτοῦ, ὅσα ἐλάλησε πρὸς αὐτὸν, λέγουσα, οὕτως ἐποίησέ μοι ὁ παῖς σου, καὶ ἐθυμώθη ὀργῇ.
And his master took Joseph, and cast him into the prison, into the place where the king's prisoners are kept, there in the prison.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ λαβὼν ὁ κύριος Ἰωσὴφ, ἐνέβαλε αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ ὀχύρωμα, εἰς τὸν τόπον ἐν ᾧ οἱ δεσμῶται τοῦ βασιλέως κατέχονται ἐκεῖ ἐν τῷ ὀχυρώματι.
And the Lord was with Joseph, and poured down mercy upon him; and he gave him favour in the sight of the chief keeper of the prison.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἦν Κύριος μετὰ Ἰωσὴφ, καὶ κατέχεεν αὐτοῦ ἔλεος· καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ χάριν ἐναντίον τοῦ ἀρχιδεσμοφύλακος.
And the chief keeper of the prison gave the prison into the hand of Joseph, and all the prisoners as many as were in the prison; and all things whatsoever they do there, he did them.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἔδωκεν ὁ ἀρχιδεσμοφύλαξ τὸ δεσμωτήριον διὰ χειρὸς Ἰωσὴφ, καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἀπηγμένους ὅσοι ἐν τῷ δεσμωτηρίῳ, καὶ πάντα ὅσα ποιοῦσιν ἐκεῖ, αὐτὸς ἦν ποιῶν.
Because of him the chief keeper of the prison knew nothing, for all things were in the hand of Joseph, because the Lord was with him; and whatever things he did, the Lord made them to prosper in his hands.
Greek · SeptuagintΟὐκ ἦν ὁ ἀρχιδεσμοφύλαξ τοῦ δεσμωτηρίου γινώσκον διʼ αὐτὸν οὐθέν· πάντα γὰρ ἦν διὰ χειρὸς Ἰωσὴφ, διὰ τὸ τὸν Κύριον μετʼ αὐτοῦ εἶναι· καὶ ὅσα αὐτὸς ἐποίει, ὁ Κύριος εὐώδο ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτοῦ.
And it came to pass after these things, that the chief cupbearer of the king of Egypt and the chief baker trespassed against their lord the king of Egypt.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγένετο δὲ μετὰ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα, ἥμαρτεν ὁ ἀρχιοινοχόος τοῦ βασιλέως Αἰγύπτου, καὶ ὁ ἀρχισιτοποιὸς, τῷ κυρίῳ αὐτῶν βασιλεῖ Αἰγύπτου.
And Pharao was wroth with his two eunuchs, with his chief cupbearer, and with his chief baker.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ὠργίσθη Φαραὼ ἐπὶ τοῖς δυσὶν εὐνούχοις αὐτοῦ, ἐπὶ τῷ ἀρχιοινοχόῳ, καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ ἀρχισιτοποιῷ·
And he put them in ward, into the prison, into the place whereinto Joseph had been led.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἔθετο αὐτοὺς ἐν φυλακῇ εἰς τὸ δεσμωτήριον, εἰς τὸν τόπον, οὗ Ἰωσὴφ ἀπῆκτο ἐκεῖ.
And the chief keeper of the prison committed them to Joseph, and he stood by them; and they were [some] days in the prison.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ συνέστησεν ὁ ἀρχιδεσμώτης τῷ Ἰωσὴφ αὐτούς· καὶ παρέστη αὐτοῖς· ἦσαν δὲ ἡμέρας ἐν τῇ φυλακῇ.
And they both had a dream in one night; and the vision of the dream of the chief cupbearer and chief baker, who belonged to the king of Egypt, who were in the prison, was this.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶδον ἀμφότεροι ἐνύπνιον ἐν μιᾷ νυκτί· ἡ δὲ ὅρασις τοῦ ἐνυπνίου τοῦ ἀρχιοινοχόου καὶ ἀρχισιτοποιοῦ, οἳ ἦσαν τῷ βασιλεῖ Αἰγύπτου, οἱ ὄντες ἐν τῷ δεσμωτηρίῳ, ἦν αὕτη.
Joseph went in to them in the morning, and saw them, and they had been troubled.
Greek · SeptuagintΕἰσῆλθε πρὸς αὐτοὺς Ἰωσὴφ τὸ πρωῒ, καὶ εἶδεν αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἦσαν τεταραγμένοι.
And he asked the eunuchs of Pharao who were with him in the prison with his master, saying, Why is it that your countenances are sad to-day?
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἠρώτα τοὺς εὐνούχους Φαραὼ, οἳ ἦσαν μετʼ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ φυλακῇ παρὰ τῷ κυρίῳ αὐτοῦ, λέγων, τί ὅτι τὰ πρόσωπα ὑμῶν σκυθρωπὰ σήμερον;
And they said to him, We have seen a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said to them, Is not the interpretation of them through God? tell [them] then to me.
Greek · SeptuagintΟἱ δὲ εἶπαν αὐτῷ, ἐνύπνιον εἴδομεν, καὶ ὁ συγκρίνων οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτό· εἶπε δὲ αὐτοῖς Ἰωσὴφ, οὐχὶ διὰ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡ διασάφησις αὐτῶν ἐστι; διηγήσασθε οὖν μοὶ.
And the chief cupbearer related his dream to Joseph, and said, In my dream a vine was before me.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ διηγήσατο ὁ ἀρχιοινοχόος τὸ ἐνύπνιον αὐτοῦ τῷ Ἰωσήφ· καὶ εἶπεν, ἐν τῷ ὕπνῳ μου ἦν ἄμπελος ἐναντίον μου.
And in the vine [were] three stems; and it budding shot forth blossoms; the clusters of grapes were ripe.
Greek · SeptuagintἘν δὲ τῇ ἀμπέλῳ τρεῖς πυθμένες, καὶ αὐτὴ θάλλουσα, ἀνενηνοχυῖα βλαστούς· πέπειροι οἱ βότρυες σταφυλῆς.
And the cup of Pharao was in my hand; and I took the bunch of grapes, and squeezed it into the cup, and gave the cup into Pharao's hand.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ τὸ ποτήριον Φαραὼ ἐν τῇ χειρί μου· καὶ ἔλαβον τὴν σταφυλὴν, καὶ ἐξέθλιψα αὐτὴν εἰς τὸ ποτήριον, καὶ ἔδωκα τὸ ποτήριον εἰς τὴν χεῖρα Φαραώ.
And Joseph said to him, This is the interpretation of it. The three stems are three days.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἰωσὴφ, τοῦτο ἡ σύγκρίσις αὐτοῦ· οἱ τρεῖς πυθμένες, τρεῖς ἡμέραι εἰσίν.
Yet three days and Pharao shall remember thy office, and he shall restore thee to thy place of chief cupbearer, and thou shalt give the cup of Pharao into his hand, according to thy former high place, as thou wast wont to be cupbearer.
Greek · SeptuagintΕτι τρεῖς ἡμέραι, καὶ μνησθήσεται Φαραὼ τῆς ἀρχῆς σου, καὶ ἀποκαταστήσει σε ἐπὶ τὴν ἀρχιοινοχοΐαν σου, καὶ δώσεις τὸ ποτήριον Φαραὼ εἰς τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ κατὰ τὴν ἀρχήν σου τὴν προτέραν, ὡς ἦσθα οἰνοχοῶν.
But remember me of thyself, when it shall be well with thee, and thou shalt deal mercifully with me, and thou shalt make mention of me to Pharao, and thou shalt bring me forth out of this dungeon.
Greek · SeptuagintἈλλὰ μνήσθητί μου διὰ σεαυτοῦ, ὅταν εὖ γενηταί σοι· καὶ ποιήσεις ἐν ἐμοὶ ἔλεος· καὶ μνησθήσῃ περὶ ἐμοῦ πρὸς Φαραὼ, καὶ ἐξάξεις με ἐκ τοῦ ὀχυρώματος τούτου.
For surely I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews, and here I have done nothing, but they have cast me into this pit.
Greek · SeptuagintὍτι κλοπῇ ἐκλάπην ἐκ γῆς Ἑβραίων, καὶ ὧδε οὐκ ἐποίησα οὐδὲν, ἀλλʼ ἐνέβαλόν με εἰς τὸν λάκκον τοῦτον.
And the chief baker saw that he interpreted aright; and he said to Joseph, I also saw a dream, and methought I took up on my head three baskets of mealy food.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶδεν ὁ ἀρχισιτοποιὸς ὅτι ὀρθῶς συνέκριεν· καὶ εἶπε τῷ Ἰωσὴφ, κᾀγὼ εἶδον ἐνύπνιον· καὶ ᾤμην τρία κανᾶ χονδριτῶν αἴρειν ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς μου·
And in the upper basket there was the work of the baker of every kind which Pharao eats; and the fowls of the air ate them out of the basket that was on my head.
Greek · SeptuagintἘν δὲ κανῷ τῷ ἐπάνω ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν γενῶν, ὧν Φαραὼ ἐσθίει, ἔργον σιτοποιοῦ, καὶ τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανου κατήσθιεν αὐτὰ ἀπὸ τοῦ κανοῦ τοῦ ἐπάνω τῆς κεφαλῆς μου.
And Joseph answered and said to him, This is the interpretation of it; The three baskets are three days.
Greek · SeptuagintἈποκριθεὶς δὲ Ἰωσὴφ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, αὕτη ἡ σύγκρισις αὐτοῦ· τὰ τρία κανᾶ, τρεῖς ἡμέραι εἰσίν·
Yet three days, and Pharao shall take away thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree, and the birds of the sky shall eat thy flesh from off thee.
Greek · SeptuagintἜτι τριῶν ἡμερῶν, καὶ ἀφελεῖ Φαραὼ τὴν κεφαλήν σου ἀπὸ σου· καὶ κρεμάσει σε ἐπὶ ξύλου, καὶ φάγεται τὰ ὄρνεα τοῦ οὐρανοῦ τὰς σάρκας σου ἀπὸ σοῦ.
And it came to pass on the third day that it was Pharao's birth-day, and he made a banquet for all his servants, and he remembered the office of the cupbearer and the office of the baker in the midst of his servants.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγένετο δὲ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ, ἡμέρα γενέσεως ἦν Φαραὼ, καὶ ἐποίει πότον πᾶσι τοῖς παισὶν αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐμνήσθη τῆς ἀρχῆς τοῦ οἰνοχόου καὶ τῆς ἀρχῆς τοῦ σιτοποιοῦ ἐν μέσῳ τῶν παίδων αὐτοῦ.
And he restored the chief cupbearer to his office, and he gave the cup into Pharao's hand.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἀποκατέστησε τὸν ἀρχιοινοχόον ἐπὶ τὴν ἀρχὴν αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἔδωκε τὸ ποτήριον εἰς τὴν χεῖρα Φαραώ.
And he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph interpreted to them.
Greek · SeptuagintΤὸν δὲ ἀρχισιτοποιὸν ἐκρέμασεν, καθὰ συνέκρινεν αὐτοῖς Ἰωσήφ.
Yet did not the chief cupbearer remember Joseph, but forgot him.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ οὐκ ἐμνήσθη ὁ ἀρχιοινοχόος τοῦ Ἰωσὴφ, ἀλλαʼ ἐπελάθετο αὐτοῦ.
And it came to pass after two full years that Pharao had a dream. He thought he stood upon [the bank of] the river.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγένετο δὲ μετὰ δύο ἔτη ἡμερῶν, Φαραὼ εἶδεν ἐνύπνιον· ᾤετο ἑστάναι ἐπὶ τοῦ ποταμοῦ.
And lo, there came up as it were out of the river seven cows, fair in appearance, and choice of flesh, and they fed on the sedge.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἰδοὺ ὥσπερ ἐκ τοῦ ποταμοῦ ἀνέβαινον ἐπτὰ βόες, καλαὶ τῷ εἴδει, καὶ ἐκλεκταὶ ταῖς σαρξὶ, καὶ ἐβόσκοντο ἐν τῷ Ἄχει.
And other seven cows came up after these out of the river, ill-favoured and lean-fleshed, and fed by the [other] cows on the bank of the river.
Greek · SeptuagintἌλλαι δὲ ἑπτὰ βόες ἀνέβαινον μετὰ ταύτας ἐκ τοῦ ποταμοῦ, αἰσχραὶ τῷ εἴδει, καὶ λεπταὶ ταῖς σαρξὶ, καὶ ἐνέμοντο παρὰ τὰς βόας ἐπὶ τὸ χεῖλος τοῦ ποταμοῦ.
And the seven ill-favoured and lean cows devoured the seven well-favoured and choice-fleshed cows; and Pharao awoke.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ κατέφαγον αἱ ἑπτὰ βόες αἱ αἰσχραὶ καὶ λεπταὶ ταῖς σαρξὶ τὰς ἑπτὰ βόας τὰς καλὰς τῷ εἴδει καὶ τὰς ἐκλεκτὰς ταῖς σαρξί· ἠγέρθη δὲ Φαραώ.
And he dreamed again. And, behold, seven ears came up on one stalk, choice and good.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐνυπνιάσθη τὸ δεύτερον· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἑπτὰ στάχυες ἀνέβαινον ἐν τῷ πυθμένι ἑνὶ ἐκλεκτοὶ καὶ καλοί.
And, behold, seven ears thin and blasted with the wind, grew up after them.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἰδοὺ ἑπτὰ στάχυες λεπτοὶ καὶ ἀνεμόφθοροι ἀνεφύοντο μετʼ αὐτούς.
