< Genesis 20 >
1 Abraham traveled from there toward the land of the South, and lived between Kadesh and Shur. He lived as a foreigner in Gerar.
Un Ābrahāms no turienes aizgāja uz to zemi pret dienasvidus pusi un dzīvoja starp Kādeš un Šur un piemita Ģerarā.
2 Abraham said about Sarah his wife, “She is my sister.” Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
Un Ābrahāms sacīja no Sāras, savas sievas: tā ir mana māsa; tad Abimelehs, Ģeraras ķēniņš, sūtīja un paņēma Sāru.
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him, “Behold, you are a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken; for she is a man’s wife.”
Bet Dievs nāca pie Abimeleha sapnī nakts laikā un uz to sacīja: redzi, tev jāmirst tās sievas dēļ, ko tu esi ņēmis, jo tā ir laulāta sieva.
4 Now Abimelech had not come near her. He said, “Lord, will you kill even a righteous nation?
Bet Abimelehs viņu vēl nebija aizskāris; tad tas sacīja: Kungs, vai Tu arī taisnus ļaudis nonāvēsi?
5 Did not he tell me, ‘She is my sister’? She, even she herself, said, ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this in the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands.”
Vai viņš man nav sacījis: tā ir mana māsa? Un viņa pati arīdzan sacījusi: tas ir mans brālis. Es to esmu darījis vientiesīgu sirdi un šķīstām rokām.
6 God said to him in the dream, “Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also withheld you from sinning against me. Therefore I did not allow you to touch her.
Tad Dievs sapnī uz to sacīja: Es arīdzan zinu, ka to esi darījis savā sirds vientiesībā, un Es tevi arī esmu atturējis, ka tu pret Mani negrēko; tādēļ Es tev neesmu ļāvis viņu aizskart.
7 Now therefore, restore the man’s wife. For he is a prophet, and he will pray for you, and you will live. If you do not restore her, know for sure that you will die, you, and all who are yours.”
Un nu, atdodi tam vīram to sievu, jo tas ir pravietis, un lai viņš priekš tevis lūdz, tad tu dzīvosi; bet ja tu to neatdosi, tad zini, ka tu mirdams mirsi, un viss, kas tev pieder.
8 Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ear. The men were very scared.
Un no rīta agri Abimelehs cēlās un aicināja visus savus kalpus un runāja visus šos vārdus priekš viņu ausīm, un tie vīri bijājās ļoti.
9 Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, “What have you done to us? How have I sinned against you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? You have done deeds to me that ought not to be done!”
Un Abimelehs aicināja Ābrahāmu un uz to sacīja: kam tu mums to esi darījis, un ko es pret tevi esmu grēkojis, ka tu par mani un par manu valsti vedis tik lielus grēkus? Tu man tā esi darījis, kā nepieklājās darīt.
10 Abimelech said to Abraham, “What did you see, that you have done this thing?”
Un Abimelehs sacīja uz Ābrahāmu: ko tu esi nodomājis to darīdams?
11 Abraham said, “Because I thought, ‘Surely the fear of God is not in this place. They will kill me for my wife’s sake.’
Tad Ābrahāms sacīja: es domāju, tiešām Dieva bijāšanas nav šinī vietā, un tie mani nokaus manas sievas dēļ.
12 Besides, she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
Un tā arī tiešām ir mana māsa, mana tēva meita, bet tik ne manas mātes meita; un tā ir tapusi mana sieva.
13 When God caused me to wander from my father’s house, I said to her, ‘This is your kindness which you shall show to me. Everywhere that we go, say of me, “He is my brother.”’”
Un pēc tam, kad Dievs man licis iziet no mana tēva nama, tad es uz to sacīju: lai šī ir tā žēlastība, ko tu pie manis darīsi: visur, kurp nāksim saki no manis: tas ir mans brālis.
14 Abimelech took sheep and cattle, male servants and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored Sarah, his wife, to him.
Tad Abimelehs ņēma avis un vēršus un kalpus un kalpones un deva tos Ābrahāmam un atdeva tam arī Sāru, viņa sievu.
15 Abimelech said, “Behold, my land is before you. Dwell where it pleases you.”
Un Abimelehs sacīja: redzi, mana zeme ir tavā priekšā; dzīvo, kur tavām acīm patīk.
16 To Sarah he said, “Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver. Behold, it is for you a covering of the eyes to all that are with you. In front of all you are vindicated.”
Un uz Sāru viņš sacīja: redzi, es tavam brālim esmu devis tūkstoš sudraba gabalus, un, redzi, lai tas tev ir par acu apsegu priekš visiem, kas pie tevis un visur, un tu esi taisnota.
17 Abraham prayed to God. So God healed Abimelech, his wife, and his female servants, and they bore children.
Un Ābrahāms pielūdza Dievu, tad Dievs dziedināja Abimeleku un viņa sievu un viņa kalpones, ka tās dzemdēja.
18 For the LORD had closed up tight all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
Jo Tas Kungs Abimeleha namā bija cieti aizslēdzis visas mātes, Sāras, Ābrahāma sievas, dēļ.
