Genesis 45
1 Joseph was unable to restrain himself any longer, standing before so many. Therefore, he instructed that all should go outside, and that no stranger should be among them as they recognized one another.
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 And he lifted up his voice with weeping, which the Egyptians heard, along with the entire house of Pharaoh.
Un viņš pacēla savu balsi raudādams, tā ka tie ēģiptieši to dzirdēja, un Faraona saime to dzirdēja.
3 And he said to his brothers: “I am Joseph. Is my father still alive?” His brothers were unable to respond, being terrified by a very great fear.
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 And he said to them mildly, “Approach toward me.” And when they had approached close by, he said: “I am Joseph, your brother, whom 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 Do not be afraid, and let it not seem to you to be a hardship that you sold me into these regions. For God sent me before you into Egypt for your salvation.
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 it is two years since the famine began to be upon the land, and five years more remain, in which there can be neither plowing, nor reaping.
Jo šis ir tas otrais bada gads pār visu zemi, un vēl būs pieci gadi, kur nebūs nedz aršanas, nedz pļaušanas.
7 And God sent me ahead, so that you may be preserved upon the earth, and so that you would be able to have food in order to live.
Un Dievs mani sūtījis jūsu priekšā, lai viņš jūs liktu par atlikumu virs zemes, un jūs uzturētu dzīvus par lielu pulku, kas izglābti.
8 I was sent here, not by your counsel, but by the will of God. He has caused me to be like a father to Pharaoh, and to be the lord of his entire house, as well as governor throughout 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 Hurry, and go up to my father, and say to him: ‘Your son Joseph commands this: God has caused me to be lord of the entire land of Egypt. Come down to me, do not 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 and you will live in the land of Goshen. And you will be next to me, you and your sons and the sons of your sons, your sheep and your herds, and all that you possess.
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 pasture you, (for there are still five years of famine remaining) lest both you and your house perish, along with all that you possess.’
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, your eyes and the eyes of my brother Benjamin can see that it is my mouth speaking to you.
Un raugi, jūsu acis redz un mana brāļa Benjamina acis, ka mana mute uz jums runā.
13 You will report to my father about all my glory, and about all that you have seen in Egypt. Hurry, and bring him to me.”
Un stāstiet manam tēvam visu manu godību Ēģiptes zemē, un visu, ko jūs redzējuši, un steidzaties un atvediet manu tēvu šurp.
14 And then falling upon the neck of his brother Benjamin, he embraced him and wept. And likewise, Benjamin wept at the same time on his neck.
Un viņš Benjaminam, savam brālim, apkampās ap kaklu un raudāja, un Benjamins raudāja pie viņa kakla.
15 And Joseph kissed all his brothers, and he cried over each one. After this, they were emboldened to speak to him.
Un viņš skūpstīja visus savus brāļus un raudāja pār tiem, un pēc viņa brāļi runāja ar viņu.
16 And it was overheard, and the news spread by word throughout the king’s court. The brothers of Joseph had arrived, and Pharaoh was gladdened along with all his family.
Un tā slava tapa daudzināta Faraona namā: Jāzepa brāļi ir atnākuši. Un tas patika Faraonam un viņa kalpiem.
17 And he told Joseph that he should command his brothers, saying: “‘Burden your beasts, and go into the land of Canaan,
Un Faraons sacīja uz Jāzepu: saki saviem brāļiem: dariet tā: apkraujiet savus lopus un ietin noejat uz Kanaāna zemi,
18 and take from there your father and kindred, and come to me. And I will give you all the good things of Egypt, so that you may eat from the marrow 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 “And you may even instruct that they take wagons from the land of Egypt, in order to transport their little ones as well as their wives. And say: ‘Take your father, and come quickly, as soon as possible.
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 You need not give up anything from your household, for all the riches of Egypt will be yours.’”
Un lai jūsu acīm nav žēl savu namarīku - jo visas Ēģiptes zemes labums jums piederēs.
21 And the sons of Israel did just as they were commanded. And Joseph gave them wagons, according to the command of Pharaoh, and provisions for the journey.
Un Israēla dēli tā darīja, un Jāzeps tiem deva ratus pēc Faraona vārdiem un tiem deva ceļamaizi uz ceļu.
22 Likewise, he ordered two robes for each of them to be brought. Yet truly, to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver along with five of the best robes.
Un visiem viņš deva ikvienam svētku drēbes, bet Benjaminam viņš deva trīssimt sudraba gabalus un piecas svētku drēbes.
23 And he sent just as much money and clothing to his father, adding also ten male donkeys, with which to transport all the riches of Egypt, and as many female donkeys, carrying wheat and bread for the 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 Thus he sent away his brothers, and as they set out he said, “Do not become angry on the way.”
Un viņš savus brāļus nosūtīja, un tie aizgāja, un viņš sacīja: nebaraties pa ceļu.
25 And they ascended out of Egypt, and they arrived in the land of Canaan, to their father Jacob.
Un tie aizgāja no Ēģiptes un nāca Kanaāna zemē pie Jēkaba, sava tēva,
26 And they reported to him, saying: “Your son Joseph is alive, and he is ruler throughout all the land of Egypt. When Jacob heard this, he was stirred up, as if from a deep sleep, yet 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 To the contrary, they explained the entire matter in order. And when he had seen the wagons, and all that he had sent, his spirit 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 and he said: “It is enough for me, if my son Joseph is still alive. I will go and see him before I die.”
Un Israēls sacīja: diezgan! Mans dēls Jāzeps vēl dzīvs! Es gribu iet un viņu redzēt, pirms nekā mirstu.
