Exodus 5
1 After these things Moses and Aaron went in, and said to Pharao: Thus saith the Lord God of Israel: Let my people go that they may sacrifice to me in the desert.
Un pēc tam Mozus un Ārons gāja un sacīja uz Faraonu: tā saka Tas Kungs, Israēla Dievs: atlaid manus ļaudis, ka tie man svētkus tur tuksnesī.
2 But he answered: Who is the Lord, that I should hear his voice, and let Israel go? I know not the Lord, neither will I let Israel go.
Bet Faraons sacīja: kas tas tāds Kungs, kā balsij man būs klausīt un Israēli atlaist? Es To Kungu nepazīstu, un Israēli arī neatlaidīšu.
3 And they said: The God of the Hebrews hath called us, to go three days’ journey into the wilderness and to sacrifice to the Lord our God: lest a pestilence or the sword fall upon us.
Tad tie sacīja: tas Ebreju Dievs mūs ir sastapis, lai mēs ejam treju dienu gājumu tuksnesī, upurēt Tam Kungam, savam Dievam, lai Viņš pār mums nenāk ar mēri vai ar zobenu.
4 The king of Egypt said to them: Why do you Moses and Aaron draw off the people from their works? Get you gone to your burdens.
Tad Ēģiptes ķēniņš uz tiem sacīja: jūs, Mozus un Ārons, - kam jūs tos ļaudis atturat no viņu darbiem? Ejat pie savas kalpošanas!
5 And Pharao said: The people of the land is numerous: you see that the multitude is increased: how much more if you give them rest from their works?
Vēl Faraons sacīja: redzi, ļaužu tai zemē tā jau daudz, un jūs tos vēl gribat atturēt no viņu kalpošanas?
6 Therefore he commanded the same day the overseers of the works, and the taskmasters of the people, saying:
Un Faraons tai dienā ļaužu uzraugiem un virsniekiem pavēlēja un sacīja:
7 You shall give straw no more to the people to make brick, as before: but let them go and gather straw.
Jums turpmāk nebūs tiem ļaudīm dot salmus pie ķieģeļu taisīšanas, kā vakar un aizvakar; tiem pašiem būs iet un sev salmus meklēt.
8 And you shall lay upon them the task of bricks, which they did before, neither shall you diminish any thing thereof: for they are idle, and therefore they cry, saying: Let us go and sacrifice to our God.
Un to ķieģeļu pulku, ko tie citkārt taisījuši, jums tiem tā pat būs uzlikt, jums no tiem neko nebūs atraut; jo tie ir bez darba, tādēļ tie brēc un saka: iesim, upurēsim savam Dievam!
9 Let them be oppressed, with works, and let them fulfill them: that they may not regard lying words.
Lai tiem vīriem tā kalpošana top grūtāka, ka tiem ir darbs, un tie negriežās pie blēņām.
10 And the overseers of the works and the taskmasters went out and said to the people: Thus saith Pharao, I allow you no straw:
Tad tie ļaužu uzraugi un virsnieki izgāja un runāja uz tiem ļaudīm sacīdami: Tā saka Faraons: es jums vairs nedošu salmus.
11 Go, and gather it where you can find it: neither shall any thing of your work be diminished.
Ejat paši, dabūjiet sev salmus kur dabūdami, bet no jūsu darba nekas netaps atlaists.
12 And the people was scattered through all the land of Egypt to gather straw.
Tad tie ļaudis izklīda pa visu Ēģiptes zemi, ka tie rugājus sakrātu salmu vietā.
13 And the overseers of the works pressed them, saying: Fulfill your work every day as before you were wont to do when straw was given you.
Un tie uzraugi tos spieda, sacīdami: Pabeidziet savu dienas darbu it tāpat, kā kad jums salmi bija.
14 And they that were over the works of the children of Israel were scourged by Pharao’s taskmasters, saying: Why have you not made up the task of bricks both yesterday and today as before?
Un Israēla bērnu uzraugi, ko Faraona virsnieki pār tiem bija iecēluši, tapa sisti, un uz tiem sacīja: kāpēc jūs neesat pabeiguši savu nospriesto darbu pie ķieģeļu dedzināšanas kā papriekš, ne vakar, ne šodien?
15 And the officers of the children of Israel came, and cried out to Pharao, saying: Why dealest thou so with thy servants?
Tad Israēla bērnu uzraugi gāja un brēca uz Faraonu un sacīja: kāpēc tu saviem kalpiem tā dari?
16 Straw is not given us, and bricks are required of us as before: behold we thy servants are beaten with whips, and thy people is unjustly dealt withal.
Taviem kalpiem salmus nedod, un mums saka: taisāt ķieģeļus; un redzi, tavi kalpi top sisti, un tā ir tavas tautas vaina.
17 And he said: You are idle, and therefore you say: Let us go and sacrifice to the Lord.
Tad Faraons sacīja: jūs esat sliņķi, sliņķi jūs esat, tāpēc jūs sakāt, iesim, upurēsim Tam Kungam.
18 Go therefore, and work: straw shall not be given you, and you shall deliver the accustomed number of bricks.
Tad nu ejat pie darba, salmus jums nedos, bet ķieģeļu skaits jums jātaisa.
19 And the officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in evil case, because it was said to them: There shall not a whit be diminished of the bricks for every day.
Tad Israēla bērnu uzraugi redzēja, ka viņi postā, tāpēc ka sacīja: jums nebūs atraut no nospriestā dienas darba ķieģeļiem.
20 And they met Moses and Aaron, who stood over against them as they came out from Pharao:
Un tie sastapa Mozu un Āronu, kas tur stāvēja tos sagaidīt, kad tie no Faraona izgāja,
21 And they said to them: The Lord see and judge, because you have made our savour to stink before Pharao and his servants, and you have given him a sword to kill us.
Un sacīja uz tiem: lai Tas Kungs jūs redz un soda, tāpēc ka jūs mūsu smaržu esat smirdošu darījuši pie Faraona un pie viņa kalpiem, viņiem rokā dodami zobenu, mūs nokaut.
22 And Moses returned to the Lord, and said: Lord, why hast thou afflicted this people? wherefore hast thou sent me?
Tad Mozus atgriezās pie Tā Kunga un sacīja: Kungs, kāpēc Tu šiem ļaudīm esi darījis ļaunu? Kāpēc tad Tu mani esi sūtījis?
23 For since the time that I went in to Pharao to speak in thy name, he hath afflicted thy people: and thou hast not delivered them.
Jo kamēr es esmu gājis pie Faraona, runāt Tavā vārdā, viņš tiem ļaudīm dara ļaunu, un Tu Savus ļaudis glābt neesi glābis.
