Genesis 15
1 After these things the word of Jehovah came to Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram. I am thy shield, thy exceedingly great reward.
Pēc šīm lietām Tā Kunga vārds notika uz Ābramu iekš parādīšanās sacīdams: Nebīsties, Ābram; Es tev esmu par priekšturamām bruņām, un tava alga ir ļoti liela.
2 And Abram said, O lord Jehovah, what will thou give me, since I go childless. And he who shall be possessor of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?
Tad Ābrams sacīja: Kungs, Dievs, ko Tu man dosi? Es aizeju bez bērniem un mana nama mantinieks ir šis Eliēzers no Damaskus.
3 And Abram said, Behold, thou have given no seed to me. And, lo, a man born in my house is my heir.
Un Ābrams sacīja: redzi, man Tu neesi dzimumu devis, un redzi, manas saimes bērns būs mans mantinieks.
4 And, behold, the word of Jehovah came to him, saying, This man shall not be thine heir, but he who shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.
Un redzi, Tā Kunga vārds notika uz viņu sacīdams: šis nebūs tavs mantinieks, bet kas no tavām miesām nāks, tas būs tavs mantas ņēmējs.
5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and number the stars, if thou be able to number them. And he said to him, So shall thy seed be.
Un Viņš to izveda ārā un sacīja: skaties uz debesīm un skaiti zvaigznes; vai tu tās vari izskaitīt? Un Viņš tam sacīja: tāpat būs tavs dzimums.
6 And he believed in Jehovah, and he reckoned it to him for righteousness.
Un Ābrams ticēja uz To Kungu, un Viņš tam to pielīdzināja par taisnību.
7 And he said to him, I am Jehovah who brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.
Un Viņš tam sacīja: Es esmu Tas Kungs, kas tevi izvedis no Ur iekš Kaldejas, ka tev dotu šo zemi iemantot.
8 And he said, O lord Jehovah, how shall I know that I shall inherit it?
Un tas sacīja: Kungs, Dievs, pie kam nopratīšu, ka es to iemantošu?
9 And he said to him, Take a heifer three years old for me, and a she-goat three years old, and a ram three years old, and a turtle dove, and a young pigeon.
Un Viņš tam sacīja: dabū Man treju gadu gotiņu un treju gadu kazu un treju gadu aunu un vienu ūbeli un vienu jaunu balodi.
10 And he took all these for him, and divided them in the midst, and laid each half opposite the other. But he did not divide the birds.
Un tas Viņam dabūja visus tos un dalīja tos vidū uz pusēm un lika ikkatra daļu vienu pret otru, bet tos putnus viņš nedalīja.
11 And the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away.
Un vanagi krita uz tām, un Ābrams tos nodzina.
12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram. And, lo, a horror of great darkness fell upon him.
Un kad saule nogāja, tad Ābramam ciets miegs uznāca, un redzi, izbailes un liela tumsība tam uzkrita.
13 And he said to Abram, Know of a certainty that thy seed shall be sojourners in a land that is not theirs. And shall serve them, and they shall afflict them four hundred years.
Un Viņš sacīja uz Ābramu: zini zinādams, ka tavs dzimums piemitīs kādā zemē, kas tam nepieder, un tur viņus kalpinās un tiem grūti darīs četrsimt gadus.
14 And also I will judge that nation, whom they shall serve, and afterward they shall come out with great substance.
Bet to tautu, kam tie kalpos, Es arī sodīšu, un pēc tam tie izies ar lielu mantu.
15 But thou will go to thy fathers in peace; thou will be buried in a good old age.
Un tu aiziesi pie saviem tēviem mierā un tapsi aprakts labā vecumā.
16 And in the fourth generation they shall come here again, for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet full.
Un ceturtā mūža augums nāks atkal šai vietā, jo Amoriešu netaisnība līdz šim vēl nav pilna.
17 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold, a smoking furnace, and a flaming torch that passed between these pieces.
Un notikās, kad saule nogāja un tumsa metās, tad redzi, dūmains ceplis un uguns liesma, kas cauri šāvās tiem upura gabaliem.
18 In that day Jehovah made a covenant with Abram, saying, To thy seed I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates:
Tanī dienā Tas Kungs cēla derību ar Ābramu, sacīdams: tavam dzimumam Es esmu devis šo zemi, no Ēģiptes upes līdz lielai Eifrat upei;
19 the Kenite, and the Kenizzite, and the Kadmonite,
Keniešus un Ķenaziešus un Kadmoniešus,
20 and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Rephaim,
Hetiešus un Fereziešus un Refaīmiešus,
21 and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Girgashite, and the Jebusite.
Un Amoriešus un Kanaāniešus, Ģirgoziešus un Jebusiešus.
