Genesis 44
1 Then Joseph instructed his steward: “Fill the men’s sacks with as much food as they can carry, and put each one’s silver in the mouth of his sack.
Un viņš pavēlēja tam, kas bija pār viņa namu, un sacīja: pildi to vīru maisus ar labību, cik tie var nest, un liec ikviena naudu viņa maisa virsgalā.
2 Put my cup, the silver one, in the mouth of the youngest one’s sack, along with the silver for his grain.” So the steward did as Joseph had instructed.
Un manu biķeri, to sudraba biķeri, liec tam jaunākam maisa virsgalā, arī viņa labības naudu. Un tas darīja pēc Jāzepa vārda, ko viņš bija sacījis.
3 At daybreak, the men were sent on their way with their donkeys.
Rītā, gaismai austot, tie vīri tapa atlaisti līdz ar saviem ēzeļiem.
4 They had not gone far from the city when Joseph told his steward, “Pursue the men at once, and when you overtake them, ask, ‘Why have you repaid good with evil?
Bet tiem no pilsētas izejot un tāli vēl neesot, Jāzeps sacīja savam nama uzraugam: celies, dzenies tiem vīriem pakaļ, un tos panācis saki tiem: kādēļ esat atmaksājuši labu ar ļaunu?
5 Is this not the cup my master drinks from and uses for divination? What you have done is wicked!’”
Vai šis nav tas, no kā mans kungs dzer? Un no tā viņš mēdz padzert. Jūs esat ļaunu darījuši, to darīdami.
6 When the steward overtook them, he relayed these words to them.
Un tas viņus panāca un viņiem sacīja šos vārdus.
7 “Why does my lord say these things?” they asked. “Your servants could not possibly do such a thing.
Tad viņi uz to sacīja: kāpēc mans kungs runā tādus vārdus? Ne mūžam tavi kalpi tādu darbu nedarīs.
8 We even brought back to you from the land of Canaan the silver we found in the mouths of our sacks. Why would we steal silver or gold from your master’s house?
Redzi, to naudu, ko esam atraduši savu maisu virsgalā, mēs tev atkal esam atnesuši no Kanaāna zemes, - kā tad mēs zagsim no tava kunga nama sudrabu vai zeltu?
9 If any of your servants is found to have it, he must die, and the rest will become slaves of my lord.”
Pie kura no taviem kalpiem to atradīs, tas lai mirst, un mēs arī gribam būt par vergiem savam kungam.
10 “As you say,” replied the steward. “But only the one who is found with the cup will be my slave, and the rest of you shall be free of blame.”
Un viņš sacīja: lai nu arī notiek pēc jūsu vārdiem: pie kura to atradīs, tas būs mans vergs, bet jūs būsiet svabadi.
11 So each one quickly lowered his sack to the ground and opened it.
Un tie steidzās un nocēla ikviens savu maisu zemē, un ikviens atraisīja savu maisu.
12 The steward searched, beginning with the oldest and ending with the youngest—and the cup was found in Benjamin’s sack.
Un viņš pārmeklēja no tā vecākā iesākdams un pie tā jaunākā beigdams, un tas biķeris tapa atrasts Benjamina maisā.
13 Then they all tore their clothes, loaded their donkeys, and returned to the city.
Tad tie saplēsa savas drēbes un apkrāva ikviens savu ēzeli un griezās atpakaļ uz pilsētu.
14 When Judah and his brothers arrived at Joseph’s house, he was still there, and they fell to the ground before him.
Un Jūda ar saviem brāļiem nāca Jāzepa namā, jo šis tur vēl bija, un tie nometās priekš viņa vaiga pie zemes.
15 “What is this deed you have done?” Joseph declared. “Do you not know that a man like me can surely divine the truth?”
Un Jāzeps uz tiem sacīja: kas tas par darbu, ko jūs esat darījuši? Vai nezinājāt, ka tāds vīrs, kā es, tiešām to paredzēs?
16 “What can we say to my lord?” Judah replied. “How can we plead? How can we justify ourselves? God has exposed the iniquity of your servants. We are now my lord’s slaves—both we and the one who was found with the cup.”
Tad Jūda sacīja: ko lai sakām savam kungam, ko lai runājam un kā lai taisnojamies? Dievs tavu kalpu noziegumu ir atradis, redzi, mēs esam sava kunga vergi, - tā mēs, kā arī tas, pie kā tas biķeris atrasts.
17 But Joseph replied, “Far be it from me to do this. The man who was found with the cup will be my slave. The rest of you may return to your father in peace.”
Tad viņš sacīja: nemūžam es to nedarīšu; tas vīrs, pie kā tas biķeris atrasts, tam būs man būt par vergu. Bet jūs ejat ar mieru pie sava tēva.
18 Then Judah approached Joseph and said, “Sir, please let your servant speak personally to my lord. Do not be angry with your servant, for you are equal to Pharaoh himself.
Tad Jūda pie tā piegāja un sacīja: ak mans kungs! Lūdzams, lai tavs kalps runā kādu vārdu priekš sava kunga ausīm, un neapskaities par savu kalpu, jo tu esi tik augsts kā Faraons.
19 My lord asked his servants, ‘Do you have a father or a brother?’
Mans kungs vaicāja savus kalpus un sacīja: vai jums ir tēvs vai brālis?
20 And we answered, ‘We have an elderly father and a younger brother, the child of his old age. The boy’s brother is dead. He is the only one of his mother’s sons left, and his father loves him.’
Tad mēs sacījām savam kungam: mums ir vecs tēvs un viens zēns, kas tam vecumā dzimis, tas jaunākais, un viņa brālis ir miris, un tas ir viens pats no savas mātes atlicis, un viņa tēvs viņu mīļo.
21 Then you told your servants, ‘Bring him down to me so that I can see him for myself.’
Tad tu sacīji saviem kalpiem: atvediet to pie manis, lai manas acis viņu redz.
22 So we said to my lord, ‘The boy cannot leave his father. If he were to leave, his father would die.’
Tad mēs sacījām uz savu kungu: tas zēns savu tēvu nevar atstāt; ja tas atstās savu tēvu, tad šis mirs.
23 But you said to your servants, ‘Unless your younger brother comes down with you, you will not see my face again.’
Tad tu saviem kalpiem sacīji: ja jūsu jaunākais brālis ar jums neatnāk, tad jūs manu vaigu vairs neredzēsiet.
24 Now when we returned to your servant my father, we relayed your words to him.
Un kad mēs nācām pie tava kalpa, sava tēva, un viņam sacījām sava kunga vārdus,
25 Then our father said, ‘Go back and buy us some food.’
Tad mūsu tēvs sacīja: noejat atkal, pērciet mums ēdama kādu mazumu.
26 But we answered, ‘We cannot go down there unless our younger brother goes with us. So if our younger brother is not with us, we cannot see the man.’
Tad sacījām: mēs nevaram noiet: ja mūsu jaunākais brālis mums ir līdz, tad mēs noiesim. Jo mēs nevaram tā vīra vaigu redzēt, ja šis mūsu jaunākais brālis nav mums līdz.
27 And your servant my father said to us, ‘You know that my wife bore me two sons.
Tad tavs kalps, mans tēvs, mums sacīja: jūs zināt, ka mana sieva man divus dēlus dzemdējusi.
28 When one of them was gone, I said: “Surely he has been torn to pieces.” And I have not seen him since.
Un tas viens ir no manis aizgājis, un es sacīju, tiešām tas ir saplosīts, un es to vairs neesmu redzējis.
29 Now if you also take this one from me and harm comes to him, you will bring my gray hair down to Sheol in sorrow.’ (Sheol h7585)
Ja tad jūs arī šo paņemsiet no manām acīm un tam kāda nelaime uzies, tad jūs manus sirmos matus ar sirdēstiem novedīsiet kapā. (Sheol h7585)
30 So if the boy is not with us when I return to your servant, and if my father, whose life is wrapped up in the boy’s life,
Tad nu, kad es nākšu pie tava kalpa, sava tēva, un tas zēns mums nebūs līdz, jo tā tēva dvēsele viņa dvēselei sietin piesieta,
31 sees that the boy is not with us, he will die. Then your servants will have brought the gray hair of your servant our father down to Sheol in sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
Tad notiks, kad tas redzēs, ka tā zēna nav, tad tas mirs, un tavi kalpi novedīs tava kalpa, mana tēva, sirmos matus ar sirdēstiem kapā. (Sheol h7585)
32 Indeed, your servant guaranteed the boy’s safety to my father, saying, ‘If I do not return him to you, I will bear the guilt before you, my father, all my life.’
Jo tavs kalps ir galvojis par to zēnu pie sava tēva, un sacījis: ja es viņu tev atpakaļ neatvedīšu, tad visu savu mūžu es gribu būt noziedzīgs sava tēva priekšā.
33 Now please let your servant stay here as my lord’s slave in place of the boy. Let him return with his brothers.
Un nu lai jel tavs kalps tā zēna vietā paliek par sava kunga vergu, un lai tas zēns aiziet ar saviem brāļiem.
34 For how can I go back to my father without the boy? I could not bear to see the misery that would overwhelm him.”
Jo kā es varētu iet pie sava tēva, ja tas zēns man nebūtu līdz? - Man būtu jāredz tie sirdēsti, kas manam tēvam uzies.
