< Genesis 38 >

1 About that time, Judah left his brothers and settled near a man named Hirah, an Adullamite.
Un notikās tanī laikā, ka Jūda no saviem brāļiem nogāja un apmetās pie kāda Adulamnieku vīra, Hīras vārdā.
2 There Judah saw the daughter of a Canaanite man named Shua, and he took her as a wife and slept with her.
Un Jūda redzēja tur kāda Kanaāniešu vīra meitu, un viņa vārds bija Šua, un viņš to ņēma un gāja pie tās.
3 So she conceived and gave birth to a son, and Judah named him Er.
Un tā tapa grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Ģeru.
4 Again she conceived and gave birth to a son, and she named him Onan.
Un tā tapa atkal grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Onanu.
5 Then she gave birth to another son and named him Shelah; it was at Chezib that she gave birth to him.
Un tā dzemdēja vēl vienu dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Šelu, un viņš bija Ķezibā, kad tā to dzemdēja.
6 Now Judah acquired a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.
Un Jūda ņēma sievu priekš Ģera, sava pirmdzimtā, un viņas vārds bija Tamāre.
7 But Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; so the LORD put him to death.
Bet Ģers, Jūdas pirmdzimtais, bija ļauns Tā Kunga priekšā, tāpēc Tas Kungs to nokāva.
8 Then Judah said to Onan, “Sleep with your brother’s wife. Perform your duty as her brother-in-law and raise up offspring for your brother.”
Tad Jūda sacīja Onanam: ej pie sava brāļa sievas un ņem to sava brāļa vietā un cel dzimumu savam brālim.
9 But Onan knew that the offspring would not belong to him; so whenever he would sleep with his brother’s wife, he would spill his seed on the ground so that he would not produce offspring for his brother.
Bet Onans zinādams, ka tas dzimums viņam nepiederēs, pie sava brāļa sievas iedams, tam lika izgaist zemē, lai savam brālim nedotu dzimuma.
10 What he did was wicked in the sight of the LORD, so He put Onan to death as well.
Un Tam Kungam nepatika, ko viņš darīja, un viņš to arīdzan nokāva.
11 Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Live as a widow in your father’s house until my son Shelah grows up.” For he thought, “He may die too, like his brothers.” So Tamar went to live in her father’s house.
Tad Jūda sacīja uz savu vedeklu Tamāri: paliec atraitne sava tēva namā, tiekams Šelus, mans dēls, pieaug; jo viņš domāja: vai viņam arī nebūs jāmirst, kā viņa brāļiem. Un Tamāre nogāja un dzīvoja sava tēva namā.
12 After a long time Judah’s wife, the daughter of Shua, died. When Judah had finished mourning, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite went up to his sheepshearers at Timnah.
Kad nu labs laiks bija pagājis, tad Šuas meita, Jūda sieva, nomira; pēc tam Jūda iepriecinājās un gāja pie saviem avju cirpējiem uz Timnu, viņš un Hīra, viņa draugs, tas Adulamnieks.
13 When Tamar was told, “Your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep,”
Un Tamārei tapa vēstīts un sacīts: redzi, tavs tēvocis iet uz Timnu, savas avis cirpt.
14 she removed her widow’s garments, covered her face with a veil to disguise herself, and sat at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the way to Timnah. For she saw that although Shelah had grown up, she had not been given to him as a wife.
Tad viņa novilka savas atraitņu drēbes un apsedzās ar vaiga apsegu un aptinās un apsēdās priekš Enaima vārtiem, kas ir uz Timnas ceļa; jo tā bija redzējusi, ka Šelus bija pieaudzis un ka viņa tam nebija dota par sievu.
15 When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute because she had covered her face.
Un Jūda to redzēja un šķita, to esam mauku, tāpēc ka tā savu vaigu bija apsegusi.
16 Not realizing that she was his daughter-in-law, he went over to her and said, “Come now, let me sleep with you.” “What will you give me for sleeping with you?” she inquired.
Un noklīda pie tās ceļmalā un sacīja: nāc jel, laid man pie tevis ieiet; jo viņš nezināja, to savu vedeklu esam. Un tā sacīja: ko tu man dosi, ja tu pie manis ieiesi?
17 “I will send you a young goat from my flock,” Judah answered. But she replied, “Only if you leave me something as a pledge until you send it.”
Un tas sacīja: es tev sūtīšu vienu āzi no ganāmpulka. Un tā sacīja: tad dod man ķīlas, tiekams tu to sūti.
18 “What pledge should I give you?” he asked. She answered, “Your seal and your cord, and the staff in your hand.” So he gave them to her and slept with her, and she became pregnant by him.
Tad tas sacīja: kas tās tādas ķīlas, ko man tev būs dot? Un tā atbildēja: tavs aizspiežamais gredzens un tava virkne un tava niedre, kas tavā rokā. Un tas viņai to deva un iegāja pie tās; un tā tapa grūta no viņa.
19 Then Tamar got up and departed. And she removed her veil and put on her widow’s garments again.
Un tā cēlās un aizgāja un nolika to apsegu un apvilka savas atraitņu drēbes.
20 Now when Judah sent his friend Hirah the Adullamite with the young goat to collect the items he had left with the woman, he could not find her.
Un Jūda sūtīja to āzi caur savu draugu, to Adulamnieku, atņemt tās ķīlas no tās sievas rokas; bet tas to neatrada.
21 He asked the men of that place, “Where is the shrine prostitute who was beside the road at Enaim?” “No shrine prostitute has been here,” they answered.
Tad tas vaicāja tās vietas ļaudis sacīdams: kur ir tā mauka, kas Enaimā uz ceļa sēdējusi? Un tie sacīja: še maukas nav bijis.
22 So Hirah returned to Judah and said, “I could not find her, and furthermore, the men of that place said, ‘No shrine prostitute has been here.’”
Un tas atgriezās pie Jūdas un sacīja: es to neesmu atradis, un tās vietas ļaudis arīdzan saka: še maukas nav bijis.
23 “Let her keep the items,” Judah replied. “Otherwise we will become a laughingstock. After all, I did send her this young goat, but you could not find her.”
Tad Jūda sacīja: lai tā to sev patur, ka netopam kaunā; redzi, es šo āzi esmu sūtījis, un tu viņas neesi atradis.
24 About three months later, Judah was told, “Your daughter-in-law Tamar has prostituted herself, and now she is pregnant.” “Bring her out!” Judah replied. “Let her be burned to death!”
Un notikās pēc kādiem trim mēnešiem, tad Jūdam tapa vēstīts un sacīts: Tamāre, tava vedekla, maucību dzinusi, un redzi, tā ir arī grūta no maukošanas. Tad Jūda sacīja: izvediet to ārā, ka tā top sadedzināta.
25 As she was being brought out, Tamar sent a message to her father-in-law: “I am pregnant by the man to whom these items belong.” And she added, “Please examine them. Whose seal and cord and staff are these?”
Kad nu tā tapa izvesta, tad tā sūtīja pie sava tēvoča un sacīja: no tā vīra, kam šās lietas pieder, es esmu grūta; un tā sacīja: vai pazīsti jel, - kam tas aizspiežamais gredzens un šī virkne un šī niedre pieder?
26 Judah recognized the items and said, “She is more righteous than I, since I did not give her to my son Shelah.” And he did not have relations with her again.
Un Jūda tās pazina un sacīja: tā sieva ir taisnāka nekā es, tāpēc ka es viņu savam dēlam Šelum neesmu devis. Un viņš to vairs neatzina.
27 When the time came for Tamar to give birth, there were twins in her womb.
Un tai dzemdējot, redzi, tai bija dvīņi viņas miesās.
28 And as she was giving birth, one of them put out his hand; so the midwife took a scarlet thread and tied it around his wrist. “This one came out first,” she announced.
Un kad tā dzemdēja, tad viens roku izbāza, un bērnu saņēmēja to ņēma un apsēja sarkanu pavedienu ap to roku un sacīja: šis nāks pirmais ārā.
29 But when he pulled his hand back and his brother came out, she said, “You have broken out first!” So he was named Perez.
Un kad tas to roku ievilka, redzi, tad nāca viņa brālis ārā; un tā sacīja: kāpēc tu sev plēsumu esi plēsis? Un tā viņa vārdu nosauca Perec (plēsis).
30 Then his brother came out with the scarlet thread around his wrist, and he was named Zerah.
Un pēc tam viņa brālis nāca ārā, ap kā roku tas sarkanais pavediens bija, un tā viņa vārdu nosauca Zerus (atspīdums).
