Genesis 44
1 Then Joseph instructed the steward of his house, saying: “Fill their sacks with grain, as much as they are able to hold. And place each one’s money at the top of the 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 But place my silver bowl, and the price that he gave for the wheat, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest.” And so it was done.
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 And when morning arose, they were sent away with their donkeys.
Rītā, gaismai austot, tie vīri tapa atlaisti līdz ar saviem ēzeļiem.
4 And now they had departed from the city and had set out a short distance. Then Joseph, sending for the steward of his house, said: “Rise up and pursue the men. And when you have overtaken them, say: ‘Why have you returned evil for good?
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 The cup that you have stolen, it is that from which my lord drinks, and in which he is accustomed to discern signs. You have done a very sinful thing.’”
Vai šis nav tas, no kā mans kungs dzer? Un no tā viņš mēdz padzert. Jūs esat ļaunu darījuši, to darīdami.
6 He did as he had been ordered. And having overtaken them, he spoke to them according to the order.
Un tas viņus panāca un viņiem sacīja šos vārdus.
7 And they responded: “Why does our lord speak in this way, as though your servants had committed such a shameful act?
Tad viņi uz to sacīja: kāpēc mans kungs runā tādus vārdus? Ne mūžam tavi kalpi tādu darbu nedarīs.
8 The money, which we found at the top of our sacks, we carried back to you from the land of Canaan. So in what way does it follow that we would steal, from the house of your lord, gold or silver?
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 Whichever of your servants will be found to have what you seek, may he die, and we shall be the servants of my lord.”
Pie kura no taviem kalpiem to atradīs, tas lai mirst, un mēs arī gribam būt par vergiem savam kungam.
10 And he said to them: “Let it be according to your verdict. With whomever it will be found, let him be my servant, but you will be unharmed.”
Un viņš sacīja: lai nu arī notiek pēc jūsu vārdiem: pie kura to atradīs, tas būs mans vergs, bet jūs būsiet svabadi.
11 And so, they quickly placed their sacks down to the ground, and each one was opened.
Un tie steidzās un nocēla ikviens savu maisu zemē, un ikviens atraisīja savu maisu.
12 And when he had searched, beginning with the oldest, all the way to the youngest, he found the cup in Benjamin’s sack.
Un viņš pārmeklēja no tā vecākā iesākdams un pie tā jaunākā beigdams, un tas biķeris tapa atrasts Benjamina maisā.
13 But they, tearing their garments and burdening their donkeys again, returned to the town.
Tad tie saplēsa savas drēbes un apkrāva ikviens savu ēzeli un griezās atpakaļ uz pilsētu.
14 And Judah, first among his brothers, entered to Joseph (for he had not yet departed from the place) and together they all fell down before him to the ground.
Un Jūda ar saviem brāļiem nāca Jāzepa namā, jo šis tur vēl bija, un tie nometās priekš viņa vaiga pie zemes.
15 And he said to them: “Why would you choose to act in this way? Could you be ignorant that there is no one like me in the knowledge of discerning signs?”
Un Jāzeps uz tiem sacīja: kas tas par darbu, ko jūs esat darījuši? Vai nezinājāt, ka tāds vīrs, kā es, tiešām to paredzēs?
16 And Judah said to him, “What could we answer to my lord? And what would we be able to say, or to justly claim? God has discovered the iniquity of your servants. See, we have all become servants to my lord, both we, and he with whom the cup was found.”
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 Joseph responded: “Far be it from me that I should act in this way. He who stole the cup, he will be my servant. But you may go away free to your father.”
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, approaching closer, said confidently: “I beg you, my lord, let your servant speak a word in your ears, and do not be angry with your servant. For you are next to Pharaoh.
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, you questioned your servants before: ‘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 you, my lord: ‘There is our father, an old man, and a young boy, who was born in his old age. His brother of the same womb has died, and he alone is left to his mother and father, who truly love him tenderly.’
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 And you said to your servants, ‘Bring him to me, and I will set my eyes on him.’
Tad tu sacīji saviem kalpiem: atvediet to pie manis, lai manas acis viņu redz.
22 We suggested to my lord: ‘The boy is not able to leave his father. For if he sends him away, he will die.’
Tad mēs sacījām uz savu kungu: tas zēns savu tēvu nevar atstāt; ja tas atstās savu tēvu, tad šis mirs.
23 And you said to your servants: ‘Unless your youngest brother arrives with you, you will not see my face any more.’
Tad tu saviem kalpiem sacīji: ja jūsu jaunākais brālis ar jums neatnāk, tad jūs manu vaigu vairs neredzēsiet.
24 Therefore, when we had gone up to your servant our father, we explained to him all that my lord had spoken.
Un kad mēs nācām pie tava kalpa, sava tēva, un viņam sacījām sava kunga vārdus,
25 And our father said: ‘Return and buy us a little wheat.’
Tad mūsu tēvs sacīja: noejat atkal, pērciet mums ēdama kādu mazumu.
26 And we said to him: ‘We cannot go. If our youngest brother descends with us, we will set out together. Otherwise, in his absence, we do not dare to see the face of 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 To which he responded: ‘You know that my wife conceived twice by me.
Tad tavs kalps, mans tēvs, mums sacīja: jūs zināt, ka mana sieva man divus dēlus dzemdējusi.
28 One went out, and you said, “A beast devoured him.” And since then, he has not appeared.
Un tas viens ir no manis aizgājis, un es sacīju, tiešām tas ir saplosīts, un es to vairs neesmu redzējis.
29 If you take this one also, and anything happens to him on the way, you will lead my grey hairs down with grief to the grave.’ (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 Therefore, if I would have gone to your servant, our father, with the boy not present, (though his life depends upon the life of him)
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 and if he were to see that he is not with us, he would die, and your servants will lead his grey hairs down with sorrow to the grave. (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 Let me be your very own servant, for I accepted this one into my trust, and I promised, saying: ‘Unless I lead him back, I will be guilty of a sin against my father for all time.’
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 And so I, your servant, will remain in place of the boy, in ministry to my lord, and then let the boy go up 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 I cannot return to my father without the boy, lest I appear as a witness to the calamity that will oppress my father.”
Jo kā es varētu iet pie sava tēva, ja tas zēns man nebūtu līdz? - Man būtu jāredz tie sirdēsti, kas manam tēvam uzies.
