< Genesis 37 >
1 And Jacob dwelt in the land where his father sojourned — in the land of Canaan.
Un Jēkabs dzīvoja tai zemē, kur viņa tēvs kā svešinieks bija mitis, Kanaāna zemē.
2 These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, fed the flock with his brethren; and he was doing service with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives. And Joseph brought to his father an evil report of them.
Šie ir Jēkaba radu raksti: Jāzeps, septiņpadsmit gadus vecs būdams, ganīja avis ar saviem brāļiem, un tas zēns bija pie Bilhas un Zilfas, sava tēva sievu, dēliem, un Jāzeps nesa viņu ļauno slavu tēvam priekšā.
3 And Israel loved Joseph more than all his sons, because he was son of his old age; and he made him a vest of many colours.
Un Israēls mīlēja Jāzepu pār visiem saviem bērniem, jo tas viņam bija dzimis vecumā, un viņš tam taisīja raibus svārkus.
4 And his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, and they hated him, and could not greet him with friendliness.
Un viņa brāļi redzēja, ka tēvs to mīlēja pār visiem viņa brāļiem, un tie to ienīdēja un nevarēja laipni ar to runāt.
5 And Joseph dreamed a dream, and told [it] to his brethren, and they hated him yet the more.
Un Jāzeps sapņoja sapni un to stāstīja saviem brāļiem, - tad šie to vēl vairāk ienīdēja.
6 And he said to them, Hear, I pray you, this dream, which I have dreamt:
Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: klausāties jel šo sapni, ko esmu redzējis.
7 Behold, we were binding sheaves in the fields, and lo, my sheaf rose up, and remained standing; and behold, your sheaves came round about and bowed down to my sheaf.
Un redzi, mēs sējām kūlīšus laukā, un redzi, mans kūlītis cēlās un stāvēja, un redzi, jūsu kūlīši apstājušies klanījās pret manu kūlīti.
8 And his brethren said to him, Wilt thou indeed be a king over us? wilt thou indeed rule over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams and for his words.
Tad viņa brāļi uz to sacīja: vai tu mums paliksi par ķēniņu? Vai tu valdīdams pār mums valdīsi? Un tie vēl vairāk to ienīdēja viņa sapņu un viņa stāstu dēļ.
9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamt another dream, and behold, the sun and the moon and eleven stars bowed down to me.
Un tas sapņoja vēl citu sapni un to teica saviem brāļiem un sacīja: redzi, es vēl citu sapni esmu redzējis, un redzi, saule un mēnesis un vienpadsmit zvaigznes klanījās priekš manis.
10 And he told [it] to his father and to his brethren. And his father rebuked him, and said to him, What is this dream which thou hast dreamt? Shall we indeed come, I and thy mother and thy brethren, to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?
Un kad viņš to stāstīja savam tēvam un saviem brāļiem, tad viņa tēvs to aprāja un uz to sacīja: kas tas par sapni, ko tu esi sapņojis? Vai es un tava māte un tavi brāļi patiesi nāksim pie zemes klanīties tavā priekšā?
11 And his brethren envied him; but his father kept the saying.
Un viņa brāļi to skauda, bet viņa tēvs šo vārdu paturēja.
12 And his brethren went to feed their father's flock at Shechem.
Un viņa brāļi gāja ganīt sava tēva lopus Šehemē. Tad Israēls sacīja uz Jāzepu:
13 And Israel said to Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed [the flock] at Shechem? Come, that I may send thee to them. And he said to him, Here am I.
Vai tavi brāļi negana Šehemē? Nāc, es tevi sūtīšu pie tiem; un tas sacīja: redzi, še es esmu. Un viņš uz to sacīja:
14 And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see after the welfare of thy brethren, and after the welfare of the flock; and bring me word again. And he sent him out of the vale of Hebron; and he came towards Shechem.
Ej jel, lūko, kā taviem brāļiem klājās un kā lopiņiem klājās, un nes man vēsti atpakaļ. Un viņš to izsūtīja no Hebrones ielejas, un tas nāca uz Šehemi.
15 And a man found him, and behold, he was wandering in the country; and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?
Un viens vīrs viņu atrada un redzi, viņš maldījās pa lauku; tad tas vīrs to vaicāja sacīdams, ko tu meklē?
16 And he said, I am seeking my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feed [their flocks].
Un tas sacīja: es meklēju savus brāļus, saki man lūdzams, kur tie gana?
17 And the man said, They have removed from this; for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them at Dothan.
Tad tas vīrs sacīja: tie no šejienes aizgājuši, jo es dzirdēju tos sakām: iesim uz Dotanu; un Jāzeps gāja saviem brāļiem pakaļ un atrada tos Dotanā.
18 And when they saw him from afar, and before he came near to them, they conspired against him to put him to death.
Un tie to ieraudzīja no tālienes, un pirms tas tuvu pie viņiem atnāca, tie sarunājās viņu nokaut,
19 And they said one to another, Behold, there comes that dreamer!
Un sacīja viens uz otru: redzi, še nāk tas sapņotājs.
20 And now come and let us kill him, and cast him into one of the pits, and we will say, An evil beast has devoured him; and we will see what becomes of his dreams.
Un nu nāciet, nokausim to un iemetīsim to kādā bedrē un sacīsim: negants zvērs to aprijis; tad redzēsim, kas būs no viņa sapņiem.
21 And Reuben heard [it], and delivered him out of their hand, and said, Let us not take his life.
Un Rūbens to dzirdēja un to izpestīja no viņu rokām un sacīja: nenokausim viņu.
22 And Reuben said to them, Shed no blood: cast him into this pit which is in the wilderness; but lay no hand upon him — in order that he might deliver him out of their hand, to bring him to his father again.
Un Rūbens uz tiem sacīja: neizlejat asinis, metiet viņu tai bedrē, kas te tuksnesī, un nepieliekat rokas pie viņa, - lai viņš to izpestītu no viņu rokām un pārvestu savam tēvam.
23 And it came to pass when Joseph came to his brethren, that they stripped Joseph of his vest, the vest of many colours, which he had on;
Un notikās, kad Jāzeps atnāca pie saviem brāļiem, tad tie Jāzepam novilka svārkus, tos raibos, kas tam bija mugurā.
24 and they took him and cast him into the pit; now the pit was empty — there was no water in it.
Un tie to ņēma un iemeta bedrē, bet tā bedre bija tukša, un tur ūdens nebija iekšā.
25 And they sat down to eat bread; and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and behold, a caravan of Ishmaelites came from Gilead; and their camels bore tragacanth, and balsam, and ladanum — going to carry [it] down to Egypt.
Pēc tie apsēdās maizi ēst un pacēla savas acis un skatījās, un redzi, Ismaēliešu pulks nāca no Gileādas, un viņu kamieļi nesa dārgas zāles, balzamu un mirres; tie gāja, to nonest uz Ēģipti.
26 And Judah said to his brethren, What profit is it that we kill our brother and secrete his blood?
Tad Jūda sacīja uz saviem brāļiem: ko tas mums līdz, ja savu brāli nokaujam un viņa asinis slēpjam?
27 Come and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites; but let not our hand be upon him; for he is our brother, our flesh. And his brethren hearkened [to him].
Nāciet, pārdosim viņu tiem Ismaēliešiem un nepieliksim savas rokas pie viņa, jo viņš ir mūsu brālis, mūsu miesa. Un viņa brāļi tam klausīja.
28 And Midianitish men, merchants, passed by; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty silver-pieces; and they brought Joseph to Egypt.
Tiem Midianiešu vīriem, tiem tirgotājiem, garām ejot, tie izvilka un izcēla Jāzepu no bedres un pārdeva Jāzepu tiem Ismaēliešiem par divdesmit sudraba gabaliem, un tie aizveda Jāzepu uz Ēģiptes zemi.
29 And Reuben returned to the pit, and behold, Joseph [was] not in the pit; and he rent his garments,
Un Rūbens gāja atpakaļ pie tās bedres un redzi, Jāzeps nebija bedrē; tad tas saplēsa savas drēbes
30 and returned to his brethren, and said, The child is not; and I, where shall I go?
Un griezās atpakaļ pie saviem brāļiem un sacīja: tā puisēna tur nav un es, - kur man būs palikt?
31 And they took Joseph's vest, and slaughtered a buck of the goats, and dipped the vest in the blood;
Un tie ņēma Jāzepa svārkus un nokāva āzi un iemērca tos svārkus asinīs.
32 and they sent the vest of many colours and had it carried to their father, and said, This have we found: discern now whether it is thy son's vest or not.
Un nosūtīja tos raibos svārkus un lika tos nonest savam tēvam un sacīja: šos esam atraduši; apraugi jel, vai tie ir tava dēla svārki, vai nē?
33 And he discerned it, and said, [It is] my son's vest! an evil beast has devoured him: Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces!
Un tas tos pazina un sacīja: tie ir mana dēla svārki; nikns zvērs viņu ir aprijis, plosīt tas Jāzepu saplosījis.
34 And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth on his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
Un Jēkabs pārplēsa savas drēbes un apvilka maisu ap saviem gurniem un bēdājās pēc sava dēla ilgu laiku.
35 And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted, and said, For I will go down to my son into Sheol mourning. Thus his father wept for him. (Sheol )
Tad visi viņa dēli un visas viņa meitas cēlās, viņu iepriecināt, bet viņš negribējās iepriecinājams būt un sacīja: ar bēdām es noiešu kapā pie sava dēla. Un viņa tēvs to apraudāja. (Sheol )
36 And the Midianites sold him into Egypt, to Potiphar, a chamberlain of Pharaoh, the captain of the life-guard.
Un tie Midianieši to pārdeva Ēģiptes zemē Potifaram, ķēniņa Faraona kambarjunkuram un sargu virsniekam.
