Genesis 45
1 Then Joseph could no longer control himself before all his attendants, and he cried out, “Send everyone away from me!” So none of them were with Joseph when he made himself known to his brothers.
Tad Jāzeps nevarēja valdīties priekš visiem, kas pie viņa stāvēja, un sauca: vediet visus no manis ārā; un neviens pie tā nestāvēja, kad Jāzeps devās pazīties saviem brāļiem.
2 But he wept so loudly that the Egyptians heard him, and Pharaoh’s household soon heard of it.
Un viņš pacēla savu balsi raudādams, tā ka tie ēģiptieši to dzirdēja, un Faraona saime to dzirdēja.
3 Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Is my father still alive?” But they were unable to answer him, because they were terrified in his presence.
Un Jāzeps sacīja uz saviem brāļiem: es esmu Jāzeps, vai mans tēvs vēl dzīvs? Un viņa brāļi tam nevarēja atbildēt, jo tie priekš viņa vaiga pārbijās.
4 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Please come near me.” And they did so. “I am Joseph, your brother,” he said, “the one you sold into Egypt!
Un Jāzeps sacīja uz saviem brāļiem: nāciet jel klāt pie manis. Un tie piegāja; tad viņš sacīja: es esmu Jāzeps, jūsu brālis, ko jūs esat pārdevuši uz Ēģiptes zemi.
5 And now, do not be distressed or angry with yourselves that you sold me into this place, because it was to save lives that God sent me before you.
Un nu, nebēdājaties un neiztrūcinājāties, ka jūs mani šurp esat pārdevuši, jo Dievs mani šurp ir sūtījis jūsu priekšā jūsu dzīvības uzturēšanas pēc.
6 For the famine has covered the land these two years, and there will be five more years without plowing or harvesting.
Jo šis ir tas otrais bada gads pār visu zemi, un vēl būs pieci gadi, kur nebūs nedz aršanas, nedz pļaušanas.
7 God sent me before you to preserve you as a remnant on the earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.
Un Dievs mani sūtījis jūsu priekšā, lai viņš jūs liktu par atlikumu virs zemes, un jūs uzturētu dzīvus par lielu pulku, kas izglābti.
8 Therefore it was not you who sent me here, but God, who has made me a father to Pharaoh—lord of all his household and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
Un nu, jūs mani neesat šurp sūtījuši, bet Dievs, kas mani licis Faraonam par tēvu un par kungu visā viņa namā un par valdītāju visā Ēģiptes zemē.
9 Now return quickly to my father and tell him, ‘This is what your son Joseph says: God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me without delay.
Steidzaties un ejat pie mana tēva un sakāt tam: tā saka tavs dēls Jāzeps: Dievs mani iecēlis par kungu visai Ēģiptes zemei, - nāc šurp pie manis, nekavējies.
10 You shall settle in the land of Goshen and be near me—you and your children and grandchildren, your flocks and herds, and everything you own.
Tev būs dzīvot Gošenes zemē, un tu būsi tuvu pie manis, tu un tavi dēli un tavu dēlu dēli un tavi sīkie lopi un tavi vērši un viss, kas tev pieder.
11 And there I will provide for you, because there will be five more years of famine. Otherwise, you and your household and everything you own will come to destitution.’
Un es tevi tur uzturēšu, jo vēl ir pieci bada gadi, - ka tu trūkumā neiznīksti, tu un tavs nams un viss, kas tev pieder.
12 Behold! You and my brother Benjamin can see that I, Joseph, am the one speaking with you.
Un raugi, jūsu acis redz un mana brāļa Benjamina acis, ka mana mute uz jums runā.
13 Tell my father about all my splendor in Egypt and everything you have seen. And bring my father down here quickly.”
Un stāstiet manam tēvam visu manu godību Ēģiptes zemē, un visu, ko jūs redzējuši, un steidzaties un atvediet manu tēvu šurp.
14 Then Joseph threw his arms around his brother Benjamin and wept, and Benjamin wept as they embraced.
Un viņš Benjaminam, savam brālim, apkampās ap kaklu un raudāja, un Benjamins raudāja pie viņa kakla.
15 Joseph kissed each of his brothers as he wept over them. And afterward his brothers talked with him.
Un viņš skūpstīja visus savus brāļus un raudāja pār tiem, un pēc viņa brāļi runāja ar viņu.
16 When the news reached Pharaoh’s house that Joseph’s brothers had come, Pharaoh and his servants were pleased.
Un tā slava tapa daudzināta Faraona namā: Jāzepa brāļi ir atnākuši. Un tas patika Faraonam un viņa kalpiem.
17 Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Tell your brothers, ‘Do as follows: Load your animals and return to the land of Canaan.
Un Faraons sacīja uz Jāzepu: saki saviem brāļiem: dariet tā: apkraujiet savus lopus un ietin noejat uz Kanaāna zemi,
18 Then bring your father and your families and return to me. I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and you shall eat from the fat of the land.’
Un ņemiet savu tēvu un savu saimi, un nāciet pie manis, tad es jums došu Ēģiptes zemes labumu, un jūs ēdīsiet tās zemes treknumu.
19 You are also directed to tell them: ‘Take wagons from the land of Egypt for your young children and your wives, and bring your father and come back.
Un tev ir pavēlēts: dariet tā: ņemiet no Ēģiptes zemes ratus priekš saviem bērniņiem un priekš savām sievām, un atvediet savu tēvu un nāciet.
20 But pay no regard to your belongings, for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours.’”
Un lai jūsu acīm nav žēl savu namarīku - jo visas Ēģiptes zemes labums jums piederēs.
21 So the sons of Israel did as they were told. Joseph gave them wagons as Pharaoh had instructed, and he also gave them provisions for their journey.
Un Israēla dēli tā darīja, un Jāzeps tiem deva ratus pēc Faraona vārdiem un tiem deva ceļamaizi uz ceļu.
22 He gave new garments to each of them, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred shekels of silver and five sets of clothes.
Un visiem viņš deva ikvienam svētku drēbes, bet Benjaminam viņš deva trīssimt sudraba gabalus un piecas svētku drēbes.
23 And he sent to his father the following: ten donkeys loaded with the best of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain and bread and provisions for his father’s journey.
Un savam tēvam viņš sūtīja tāpat desmit ēzeļus, kas no Ēģiptes labumu nesa, un desmit ēzeļu mātes, kas nesa labību un maizi un barību priekš tēva uz ceļu.
24 Then Joseph sent his brothers on their way, and as they were leaving, he said to them, “Do not quarrel on the way!”
Un viņš savus brāļus nosūtīja, un tie aizgāja, un viņš sacīja: nebaraties pa ceļu.
25 So the brothers went up out of Egypt and came to their father Jacob in the land of Canaan.
Un tie aizgāja no Ēģiptes un nāca Kanaāna zemē pie Jēkaba, sava tēva,
26 “Joseph is still alive,” they said, “and he is ruler over all the land of Egypt!” But Jacob was stunned, for he did not believe them.
Un viņam stāstīja sacīdami: Jāzeps vēl dzīvs, un ir valdītājs pār visu Ēģiptes zemi. Bet Jēkaba sirds palika auksta, jo viņš tiem neticēja.
27 However, when they relayed all that Joseph had told them, and when he saw the wagons that Joseph had sent to carry him back, the spirit of their father Jacob was revived.
Bet kad tie uz viņu runāja visus Jāzepa vārdus, ko tas tiem bija sacījis, un kad viņš ieraudzīja tos ratus, ko Jāzeps bija sūtījis, viņu novest, tad Jēkaba, viņu tēva, gars atdzīvojās.
28 “Enough!” declared Israel. “My son Joseph is still alive! I will go to see him before I die.”
Un Israēls sacīja: diezgan! Mans dēls Jāzeps vēl dzīvs! Es gribu iet un viņu redzēt, pirms nekā mirstu.
