< Genesis 12 >

1 And the Lord said to Abram: Go forth out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and out of thy father’s house, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Ābramu: izej no savas zemes un no savas dzimtenes un no sava tēva nama uz to zemi, ko Es tev rādīšu.
2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and magnify thy name, and thou shalt be blessed.
Un Es tevi darīšu par lielu tautu un tevi svētīšu un darīšu tavu vārdu lielu, un tu būsi par svētību.
3 I will bless them that bless thee, and curse them that curse thee, and IN THEE shall all the kindred of the earth be blessed:
Un Es svētīšu tos, kas tevi svētī, un nolādēšu tos, kas tevi lād, un iekš tevis visas ciltis virs zemes taps svētītas.
4 So Abram went out as the Lord had commanded him, and Lot went with him: Abram was seventy-five years old when he went forth from Haran.
Un Ābrams aizgāja, kā Tas Kungs tam bija sacījis, un Lats gāja tam līdz. Un Ābrams bija septiņdesmit un pieci gadus vecs, kad viņš no Hāranas izgāja.
5 And he took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother’s son, and all the substance which they had gathered, and the souls which they had gotten in Haran: and they went out to go into the land of Chanaan. And when they were come into it,
Un Ābrams ņēma Sāraī, savu sievu, un Latu, savu brālēnu, un visu savu mantu, ko tie bija mantojuši, un tās dvēseles, ko tie Hāranā bija dabūjuši, un tie izgāja, ka ietu uz Kanaāna zemi, un tie nonāca Kanaāna zemē.
6 Abram passed through the country into the place of Sichem, as far as the noble vale: now the Chanaanite was at that time in the land.
Un Ābrams pārstaigāja to zemi līdz Šehemes vietai, līdz Mores ozolam; un Kanaānieši bija to laiku tai zemē.
7 And the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him: To thy seed will I give this land. And he built there an altar to the Lord, who had appeared to him.
Tad Tas Kungs parādījās Ābramam un sacīja: tavam dzimumam Es došu šo zemi; un viņš tur uztaisīja altāri Tam Kungam, kas viņam bija parādījies.
8 And passing on from thence to a mountain, that was on the east side of Bethel, he there pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east; he built there also an altar to the Lord, and called upon his name.
Un no turienes viņš cēlās uz tiem kalniem Bētelei pret rītiem, un uzcēla savu telti, ka Bētele bija pret vakariem un Aja pret austruma pusi, un uztaisīja tur Tam Kungam altāri un piesauca Tā Kunga vārdu.
9 And Abram went forward, going, and proceeding on to the south.
Un Ābrams cēlās un gāja iedams uz dienvidu(Negebu) pusi.
10 And there came a famine in the country; and Abram went down into Egypt, to sojourn there: for the famine was very grievous in the land.
Un tanī zemē bija bads, un Ābrams nogāja uz Ēģipti, tur mist, jo tas bads bija grūts tanī zemē.
11 And when he was near to enter into Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife: I know that thou art a beautiful woman:
Un notikās, kad bija nonācis tuvu pie Ēģiptes, tad viņš sacīja uz Sāraī, savu sievu: redzi, es zinu, ka tu no vaiga esi skaista sieva.
12 And that when the Egyptians shall see thee, they will say: She is his wife: and they will kill me, and keep thee.
Un kad ēģiptieši tevi redzēs, tad tie sacīs: šī ir viņa sieva, - un mani nokaus, un tevi atstās dzīvu.
13 Say, therefore, I pray thee, that thou art my sister: that I may be well used for thee, and that my soul may live for thy sake.
Saki jel, ka tu mana māsa, lai man labi klājās tevis dēļ, un mana dvēsele tevis dēļ paliek dzīva.
14 And when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians saw the woman that she was very beautiful.
Kad nu Ābrams nāca Ēģiptes zemē, tad ēģiptieši redzēja to sievu, ka tā bija ļoti skaista.
15 And the princes told Pharao, and praised her before him: and the woman was taken into the house of Pharao.
Un Faraona lielkungi viņu redzēja, un to slavēja Faraona priekšā, un tā sieva tapa ņemta Faraona namā.
16 And they used Abram well for her sake. And he had sheep and oxen, and he asses, and men servants and maid servants, and she asses, and camels.
Un šis Ābramam darīja labu viņas dēļ; un tam bija avis un vērši un ēzeļi un kalpi un kalpones un ēzeļa mātes un kamieļi.
17 But the Lord scourged Pharao and his house with most grievous stripes for Sarai, Abram’s wife.
Bet Tas Kungs mocīja Faraonu un viņa namu ar lielām mocībām, Sāraī, Ābrama sievas, dēļ.
18 And Pharao called Abram, and said to him: What is this that thou hast done to me? Why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife?
Tad Faraons aicināja Ābramu un sacīja: kam tu man to esi darījis? Kāpēc tu man neesi sacījis, ka šī tava sieva?
19 For what cause didst thou say, she was thy sister, that I might take her to my wife? Now, therefore, there is thy wife, take her, and go thy way.
Kāpēc tu sacīji, ka šī tava māsa? Jo es viņu sev ņēmu par sievu. Un nu redzi, še tava sieva, ņem viņu un ej.
20 And Pharao gave his men orders concerning Abram: and they led him away, and his wife, and all that he had.
Un Faraons pavēlēja par viņu saviem vīriem, un tie to izvadīja un viņa sievu un visu, kas tam bija.
