< Genesis 18 >

1 And Jehovah appeared to him by the oaks of Mamre. And he sat at the tent-door in the heat of the day.
Un Tas Kungs viņam parādījās pie Mamres ozoliem, kad viņš sēdēja sava nama durvīs, ap dienas karstumu.
2 And he lifted up his eyes and saw, and behold, three men standing near him. And when he saw [them], he ran to meet them from the tent-door, and bowed himself to the earth,
Un viņš pacēla savas acis un skatījās, un redzi, trīs vīri stāvēja viņa priekšā.
3 and said, Lord, if now I have found favour in thine eyes, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant.
Un tos ieraudzījis viņš tiem tecēja pretī no dzīvokļa durvīm un nometās pie zemes un sacīja: Kungs, ja es esmu žēlastību atradis Tavās acīs, tad lūdzams neej garām Savam kalpam.
4 Let now a little water be fetched, that ye may wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree.
Lai atnes drusciņ ūdens, un mazgājiet savas kājas un apmetaties apakš šī koka.
5 And I will fetch a morsel of bread; and refresh yourselves; after that ye shall pass on; for therefore have ye passed on towards your servant. And they said, So do as thou hast said.
Un es dabūšu kādu kumosu maizes, ka jūs atspirdzināt savu sirdi; pēc varat iet; jo tāpēc jūs esat pie sava kalpa nākuši. Un tie sacīja: dari, kā tu esi sacījis.
6 And Abraham hastened into the tent to Sarah, and said, Knead quickly three seahs of wheaten flour, and make cakes.
Un Ābrahāms traucās dzīvoklī pie Sāras un sacīja: steidzies, ņem sijātu miltu trīs mērus, samīci un cep karašas.
7 And Abraham ran to the herd, and took a calf tender and good, and gave [it] to the attendant; and he hasted to dress it.
Un Ābrāams notecēja pie lopiem un ņēma vienu mīkstu un labu teļu un deva to puisim, un tas steidzās to sataisīt.
8 And he took thick and sweet milk, and the calf that he had dressed, and set [it] before them; and he stood before them under the tree, and they ate.
Un viņš ņēma sviestu un pienu un to teļu, ko bija sataisījis, un cēla tiem priekšā un stāvēja pats pie tiem apakš tā koka, un tie ēda.
9 And they said to him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.
Tad tie uz viņu sacīja: kur ir Sāra, tava sieva? Un viņš sacīja: redzi, iekšā dzīvoklī.
10 And he said, I will certainly return to thee at [this] time of the year, and behold, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah was listening at the tent-door, which was behind him.
Un tas sacīja: nāktin Es atnākšu pie tevis ap šo laiku nākamā gadā; un redzi, Sārai, tavai sievai, būs dēls. Un Sāra to dzirdēja dzīvokļa durvīs; jo tās bija aiz viņa.
11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old [and] advanced in age: it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
Bet Ābrahāms un Sāra bija veci un daudz dienas piedzīvojuši, un pie Sāras vairs nebija, kā sievām mēdz būt.
12 And Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am become old, shall I have pleasure, and my lord old?
Tad Sāra pati pie sevis smējās sacīdama: vai tad man izdēdējušai būs kārība, un mans kungs ir vecīgs?
13 And Jehovah said to Abraham, Why is this, that Sarah laughs, saying, Shall I indeed bear, when I am become old?
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Ābrahāmu: kam Sāra smējusies par to sacīdama: vai es tiešām dzemdēšu, veca būdama?
14 Is [any] matter too wonderful for Jehovah? At the time appointed I will return to thee, at [this] time of the year, and Sarah shall have a son.
Vai tad kāda lieta Tam Kungam neiespējama? Noliktā laikā Es atnākšu pie tevis nākamā gadā, tad Sārai būs dēls.
15 And Sarah denied, saying, I did not laugh; for she was afraid. And he said, No; but thou didst laugh.
Un Sāra liedzās sacīdama: es neesmu smējusies. Jo tai bija bail. Bet Viņš sacīja: nē, tu esi gan smējusies.
16 And the men rose up thence, and looked toward Sodom; and Abraham went with them to conduct them.
Tad tie vīri no turienes cēlās un griezās uz Sodomu. Un Ābrahāms gāja tiem līdz, tos pavadīdams.
17 And Jehovah said, Shall I hide from Abraham what I am doing?
Un Tas Kungs sacīja: vai man būs slēpt Ābrahāmam, ko gribu darīt?
18 Since Abraham shall indeed become a great and mighty nation; and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him.
Jo Ābrahāms būs par lielu un varenu tautu, un iekš viņa visi ļaudis virs zemes taps svētīti.
19 For I know him that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of Jehovah, to do righteousness and justice, in order that Jehovah may bring upon Abraham what he hath spoken of him.
Jo Es to esmu atzinis, lai viņš saviem bērniem un savam namam pēc sevis pavēl sargāt Tā Kunga ceļu, darot, kas taisnība un kas tiesa, ka Tas Kungs liktu nākt uz Ābrahāmu, ko Viņš tam runājis.
20 And Jehovah said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great and their sin is very grievous,
Un Tas Kungs sacīja: liela brēkšana ir par Sodomu un Gomoru, un viņu grēki ļoti grūti.
21 I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come to me; and if not, I will know [it].
Tad nu Es noiešu un lūkošu, vai tie visnotaļ ir darījuši pēc tās brēkšanas, kas Manā priekšā nākusi, vai ne; to Es gribu zināt.
22 And the men turned thence, and went towards Sodom; and Abraham remained yet standing before Jehovah.
Un tie vīri griezās no turienes un gāja uz Sodomu; bet Ābrahāms stāvēja vēl Tā Kunga priekšā.
23 And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also cause the righteous to perish with the wicked?
Un Ābrahāms piegāja un sacīja: vai Tu samaitāsi taisno ar bezdievīgo?
24 There are perhaps fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also destroy and not forgive the place for the sake of the fifty righteous that are therein?
Varbūt, ka piecdesmit taisni tai pilsētā, vai Tu tos samaitāsi un to vietu nežēlosi to piecdesmit taisno dēļ, kas viņu starpā?
25 Far be it from thee to do so, to slay the righteous with the wicked, that the righteous should be as the wicked — far be it from thee! Will not the Judge of all the earth do right?
Ne mūžam Tu tā nedarīsi, nonāvēdams taisno līdz ar bezdievīgo, ka taisnais būtu tā kā bezdievīgais; ne mūžam! - vai visas pasaules soģis nedarīs taisni?
26 And Jehovah said, If I find at Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will forgive all the place for their sakes.
Tad Tas Kungs sacīja: ja Es Sodomas pilsētā atradīšu piecdesmit taisnus, tad Es žēlošu visu to vietu viņu labad.
27 And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have ventured to speak unto the Lord; I, who am dust and ashes.
Un Ābrahāms atbildēja un sacīja: redzi jel, es esmu iedrošinājies ar To Kungu runāt, jebšu es esmu pīšļi un pelni.
28 Perhaps there may want five of the fifty righteous: wilt thou destroy all the city on account of the five? And he said, If I shall find forty-five there, I will not destroy [it].
Ja tur piecu trūktu no tiem piecdesmit taisniem, vai šo piecu dēļ Tu samaitātu visu to pilsētu? Un Viņš sacīja: Es to nesamaitāšu, ja tur atradīšu četrdesmit un piecus.
29 And he continued yet to speak with him, and said, Perhaps there may be forty found there. And he said, I will not do it for the forty's sake.
Tad tas joprojām runāja uz Viņu un sacīja: ja tur atrastos četrdesmit? Un Viņš sacīja: Es nekā nedarīšu to četrdesmit labad.
30 And he said, Oh, let not the Lord be angry that I speak! Perhaps there may be thirty found there. And he said, I will not do it if I find thirty there.
Un tas sacīja: neapskaities, Kungs, lūdzams, ka es vēl runāju: ja tur atrastos trīsdesmit? Un Viņš sacīja: Es to nedarīšu, ja atradīšu trīsdesmit.
31 And he said, Behold now, I have ventured to speak with the Lord. Perhaps there may be twenty found there. And he said, I will not destroy [it] for the twenty's sake.
Un tas sacīja: redzi jel, es esmu iedrošinājies uz To Kungu runāt: ja tur atrastos divdesmit? Un Viņš sacīja: Es nesamaitāšu to divdesmit labad.
32 And he said, Oh, let not the Lord be angry, that I speak yet but this time! Perhaps there may be ten found there. And he said, I will not destroy [it] for the ten's sake.
Un tas sacīja: neapskaities, Kungs, lūdzams, ka es vēl vienreiz runāju, - ja tur atrastos desmit? Un Viņš sacīja: Es nesamaitāšu to desmit labad.
33 And Jehovah went away when he had ended speaking to Abraham; and Abraham returned to his place.
Tad Tas Kungs aizgāja, kad bija beidzis uz Ābrahāmu runāt, un Ābrahāms griezās atpakaļ uz savu vietu.
