< Genesis 42 >
1 And Jacob saw that there was grain in Egypt, and Jacob said to his sons, Why do ye look one upon another?
Kad nu Jēkabs redzēja, ka labība bija Ēģiptes zemē, tad viņš saviem dēliem sacīja: ko jūs skatāties?
2 And he said, Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt; go down thither and buy [grain] for us from thence, in order that we may live, and not die.
Un viņš sacīja: redzi, es esmu dzirdējis, labību esam Ēģiptes zemē, noejat turp un pērciet mums no turienes, lai dzīvojam un nemirstam.
3 And Joseph's ten brethren went down to buy [grain] out of Egypt.
Tad desmit Jāzepa brāļi nogāja, labības pirkt no Ēģiptes zemes.
4 But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob sent not with his brethren; for he said, Lest mischief may befall him.
Bet Benjaminu, Jāzepa brāli, Jēkabs nesūtīja ar viņa brāļiem, jo tas sacīja: ka to kāda nelaime neaizņem.
5 So the sons of Israel came to buy [grain] among those that came; for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
Tā Israēla dēli nāca, labības pirkt līdz ar citiem, kas turp gāja, jo bads bija arī Kanaāna zemē.
6 And Joseph, he was the governor over the land — he it was that sold [the corn] to all the people of the land. And Joseph's brethren came and bowed down to him, the face to the earth.
Un Jāzeps bija tas valdītājs pār zemi un pārdeva visiem tās zemes ļaudīm, un Jāzepa brāļi nāca un klanījās viņa priekšā ar vaigu pie zemes.
7 And Joseph saw his brethren, and knew them; but he made himself strange to them, and spoke roughly to them, and said to them, Whence come ye? And they said, From the land of Canaan, to buy food.
Tad Jāzeps redzēja savus brāļus un tos pazina, bet viņš likās pret tiem svešs, un runāja ar tiem bargi un sacīja uz tiem: no kurienes jūs nākat? Un tie sacīja: no Kanaāna zemes, maizes pirkt.
8 And Joseph knew his brethren, but they did not know him.
Un Jāzeps pazina savus brāļus, bet tie viņu nepazina.
9 And Joseph remembered the dreams that he had dreamt of them; and he said to them, Ye are spies: to see the exposed places of the land ye are come.
Un Jāzeps pieminēja savus sapņus, ko viņš par tiem bija sapņojis, un viņš uz tiem sacīja: jūs esat izlūki, jūs esat nākuši raudzīt, kur zemei var piekļūt.
10 And they said to him, No, my lord; but to buy food are thy servants come.
Un tie uz viņu sacīja: nē, mans kungs, tavi kalpi ir nākuši, maizes pirkt.
11 We are all one man's sons; we are honest: thy servants are not spies.
Mēs visi esam viena vīra dēli, mēs esam taisni ļaudis, tavi kalpi nav izlūki.
12 And he said to them, No; but to see the exposed places of the land are ye come.
Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: nē, bet jūs esat nākuši izlūkot, kur zemei var piekļūt.
13 And they said, Thy servants were twelve brethren, sons of one man, in the land of Canaan; and behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is not.
Un tie sacīja: mēs tavi kalpi bijām divpadsmit brāļi, viena paša vīra dēli Kanaāna zemē, un redzi, tas jaunākais vēl šodien ir pie mūsu tēva, bet tā viena vairs nav.
14 And Joseph said to them, That is it that I have spoken to you, saying, Ye are spies.
Tad Jāzeps uz tiem sacīja: tā tas ir, kā es uz jums esmu runājis un sacījis: jūs esat izlūki.
15 By this ye shall be put to the proof: as Pharaoh lives, ye shall not go forth hence, unless your youngest brother come hither!
Pie tam jūs tapsiet pārbaudīti; tik tiešām kā Faraons dzīvo, jūs no šejienes netiksiet projām, ja jūsu jaunākais brālis nenāk šurpu.
16 Send one of you, that he may fetch your brother, but ye shall be imprisoned, and your words shall be put to the proof, whether the truth is in you; and if not, as Pharaoh lives, ye are spies.
Sūtiet vienu no jums, kas atved jūsu brāli, bet jūs paliekat cietumā, tad jūsu vārdi taps pārbaudīti, vai pie jums ir patiesība, un ja ne, tik tiešām kā Faraons dzīvo, tad jūs esat izlūki.
17 And he put them in custody three days.
Un viņš tos kopā lika trīs dienas cietumā.
18 And Joseph said to them the third day, This do, that ye may live: I fear God.
Un trešā dienā Jāzeps uz tiem sacīja: dariet tā, tad jūs dzīvosiet; es bīstos Dievu.
19 If ye are honest, let one of your brethren remain bound in the house of your prison, but go ye, carry grain for the hunger of your households;
Ja jūs esat taisni ļaudis, tad lai viens no jūsu brāļiem paliek saistīts cietumā, un jūs ejat, pārvediet to labību, tādēļ ka bads jūsu mājās.
20 and bring your youngest brother to me, in order that your words be verified, and that ye may not die. And they did so.
Un atvediet savu jaunāko brāli pie manis, tad jūsu vārdi taps atrasti taisni, un jūs nemirsiet; un tie tā darīja.
21 Then they said one to another, We are indeed guilty concerning our brother, whose anguish of soul we saw when he besought us, and we did not hearken; therefore this distress is come upon us.
Tad tie sacīja viens uz otru: patiesi, mēs esam noziegušies pret savu brāli, ka mēs viņa dvēseles bēdas redzējām, kad viņš no mums žēlastības lūdzās, un neklausījām; tādēļ šās bēdas nāk pār mums.
22 And Reuben answered them, saying, Did I not speak to you, saying, Do not sin against the lad? But ye did not hearken; and now behold, his blood also is required.
Un Rūbens tiem atbildēja un sacīja: vai es jums to neteicu sacīdams: neapgrēkojaties pret to bērnu, bet jūs neklausījāt? Un nu redzi, viņa asinis top meklētas.
23 And they did not know that Joseph understood, for the interpreter was between them.
Un tie nezināja, ka Jāzeps to saprata, jo tur bija tulks viņu starpā.
24 And he turned away from them, and wept. And he returned to them, and spoke to them, and took Simeon from among them, and bound him before their eyes.
Un viņš no tiem novērsās un raudāja, un atkal pie tiem atgriezās un ar tiem runāja, un ņēma no viņu vidus Sīmeanu un to saistīja priekš viņu acīm.
25 And Joseph gave orders to fill their vessels with corn, and to restore every man's money into his sack, and to give them provision for the way. And thus did they to them.
Un Jāzeps pavēlēja viņu maisus pildīt ar labību un viņu naudu atlikt ikkatram savā maisā, un tiem dot ceļa barību uz ceļu; un tiem tā tapa darīts.
26 And they loaded their asses with their grain, and departed thence.
Un tie uzkrāva savu labību uz saviem ēzeļiem un aizgāja no turienes.
27 And one of them opened his sack to give his ass food in the inn, and saw his money, and behold, it was in the mouth of his sack.
Kad nu viens no tiem savu maisu atraisīja, savu ēzeli barot mājas vietā, tad tas ieraudzīja savu naudu, un redzi, tā bija viņa maisa virsgalā.
28 And he said to his brethren, My money is returned [to me], and behold, it is even in my sack. And their heart failed [them], and they were afraid, saying one to another, What is this [that] God has done to us?
Un tas sacīja uz saviem brāļiem: mana nauda man ir atlikta, un redzi, tā ir manā maisā. Tad tiem sirds iztrūkās un tie pārbijās viens uz otru sacīdami: kas tas ir, ko Dievs mums ir darījis?
29 And they came into the land of Canaan, to Jacob their father, and told him all that had befallen them, saying,
Un tie nāca pie Jēkaba, sava tēva, uz Kanaāna zemi un teica tam visu, kas tiem bija noticis, un sacīja:
30 The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly to us, and treated us as spies of the land.
Tas vīrs, tas zemes kungs, runāja bargi ar mums un mūs turēja par zemes izlūkiem.
31 And we said to him, We are honest; we are not spies:
Tad mēs tam sacījām: mēs esam taisni ļaudis, mēs neesam izlūki bijuši.
32 we are twelve brethren, sons of our father; one is not, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.
Mēs bijām divpadsmit brāļi, sava tēva dēli, viena vairs nav, un tas jaunākais vēl šodien ir pie mūsu tēva Kanaāna zemē.
33 And the man, the lord of the land, said to us, Hereby shall I know that ye are honest: leave one of your brethren with me, and take [for] the hunger of your households, and go,
Un tas vīrs, tas zemes kungs, mums sacīja: pie tam es nomanīšu, jūs esam taisnus: pametiet vienu no saviem brāļiem pie manis un ņemiet, ko jums vajag, un noejat,
34 and bring your youngest brother to me, and I shall know that ye are not spies, but are honest. Your brother will I give up to you; and ye may trade in the land.
Un atvediet savu jaunāko brāli pie manis, tad es manīšu, jūs neesam izlūkus, bet taisnus ļaudis. Jūsu brāli es jums atdošu un jums ļaušu šinī zemē pirkt un pārdot.
35 And it came to pass as they emptied their sacks, that behold, every man had his bundle of money in his sack; and they saw their bundles of money, they and their father, and were afraid.
Un kad tie savus maisus izbēra, redzi, tad ikviens atrada savu naudas mučkuli(maisiņu) savā maisā, un tie ieraudzīja savus naudas mučkuļus, viņi un viņu tēvs, un tie izbijās.
36 And Jacob their father said to them, Ye have bereaved me of children: Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and ye will take Benjamin! All these things are against me.
Tad Jēkabs, viņu tēvs, uz tiem sacīja: jūs man paņemat manus bērnus: Jāzepa vairs nav un Sīmeana vairs nav, un Benjaminu jūs ņemsiet; viss tas nāk man virsū.
37 And Reuben spoke to his father, saying, Slay my two sons if I bring him not back to thee: give him into my hand, and I will bring him to thee again.
Tad Rūbens runāja ar savu tēvu un sacīja: ja es to pie tevis neatvedīšu atpakaļ, tad nokauj manus divus dēlus; dod viņu manā rokā, tad es viņu pie tevis atvedīšu atpakaļ.
38 But he said, My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead, and he alone is left; and if mischief should befall him by the way in which ye go, then would ye bring down my grey hairs with sorrow to Sheol. (Sheol )
Bet viņš sacīja: manam dēlam nebūs noiet ar jums, jo viņa brālis ir miris, un tas ir viens pats atlicis. Ja tam kāda nelaime notiks uz ceļa, kur jūs iesiet, tad jūs manus sirmos matus ar sirdēstiem novedīsiet bedrē. (Sheol )
