Genesis 42
1 And Jacob hearing that food was sold in Egypt, said to his sons: Why are ye careless?
Kad nu Jēkabs redzēja, ka labība bija Ēģiptes zemē, tad viņš saviem dēliem sacīja: ko jūs skatāties?
2 I have heard that wheat is sold in Egypt: go ye down, and buy us necessaries, that we may live, and not be consumed with want.
Un viņš sacīja: redzi, es esmu dzirdējis, labību esam Ēģiptes zemē, noejat turp un pērciet mums no turienes, lai dzīvojam un nemirstam.
3 So the ten brethren of Joseph went down, to buy corn in Egypt:
Tad desmit Jāzepa brāļi nogāja, labības pirkt no Ēģiptes zemes.
4 Whilst Benjamin was kept at home by Jacob, who said to his brethren: Lest perhaps he take any harm in the journey.
Bet Benjaminu, Jāzepa brāli, Jēkabs nesūtīja ar viņa brāļiem, jo tas sacīja: ka to kāda nelaime neaizņem.
5 And they entered into the land of Egypt with others that went to buy. For the famine was in the land of Chanaan.
Tā Israēla dēli nāca, labības pirkt līdz ar citiem, kas turp gāja, jo bads bija arī Kanaāna zemē.
6 And Joseph was governor in the land of Egypt, and corn was sold by his direction to the people. And when his brethren had bowed down to him,
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 he knew them, he spoke as it were to strangers somewhat roughly, asking them: Whence came you? They answered: From the land of Chanaan, to buy necessaries of life.
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 though he knew his brethren, he was not known by them.
Un Jāzeps pazina savus brāļus, bet tie viņu nepazina.
9 And remembering the dreams, which formerly he had dreamed, he said to them: You are spies. You are come to view the weaker parts of the land.
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 But they said: It is not so, my lord, but thy servants are come to buy food.
Un tie uz viņu sacīja: nē, mans kungs, tavi kalpi ir nākuši, maizes pirkt.
11 We are all the sons of one man: we are come as peaceable men, neither do thy servants go about any evil.
Mēs visi esam viena vīra dēli, mēs esam taisni ļaudis, tavi kalpi nav izlūki.
12 And he answered them: It is otherwise: you are come to consider the unfenced parts of this land.
Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: nē, bet jūs esat nākuši izlūkot, kur zemei var piekļūt.
13 But they said: We thy servants are twelve brethren, the sons of one man in the land of Chanaan: the youngest is with our father, the other is not living.
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 He saith: This is it that I said: You are spies.
Tad Jāzeps uz tiem sacīja: tā tas ir, kā es uz jums esmu runājis un sacījis: jūs esat izlūki.
15 I shall now presently try what you are: by the health of Pharao you shall not depart hence, until your youngest brother come.
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 to fetch him: and you shall be in prison, till what you have said be proved, whether it be true or false: or else by the health of Pharao you 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 So he put them in prison three days.
Un viņš tos kopā lika trīs dienas cietumā.
18 And the third day he brought them out of prison, and said: Do as I have said, and you shall live: for I fear God.
Un trešā dienā Jāzeps uz tiem sacīja: dariet tā, tad jūs dzīvosiet; es bīstos Dievu.
19 If you be peaceable men, let one of your brethren be bound in prison: and go ye your ways and carry the corn that you have bought, unto your houses.
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, that I may find your words to be true, and you may not die. They did as he had said.
Un atvediet savu jaunāko brāli pie manis, tad jūsu vārdi taps atrasti taisni, un jūs nemirsiet; un tie tā darīja.
21 And they talked one to another: We deserve to suffer these things, because we have sinned against our brother, seeing the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear: therefore is this affliction 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 Ruben one of them, said: Did not I say to you: Do not sin against the boy: and you would not hear me? Behold his blood 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 knew not that Joseph understood, because he spoke to them by an interpreter.
Un tie nezināja, ka Jāzeps to saprata, jo tur bija tulks viņu starpā.
24 And he turned himself away a little while, and wept: and returning he spoke to them.
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 taking Simeon, and binding him in their presence, he commanded his servants to fill their sacks with wheat, and to put every man’s money again in their sacks, and to give them besides provisions for the way: and they did so.
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 But they having loaded their asses with the corn, went their way.
Un tie uzkrāva savu labību uz saviem ēzeļiem un aizgāja no turienes.
27 And one of them opening his sack, to give his beast provender in the inn, saw the money in the sack’s mouth;
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 said to his brethren: My money is given me again, behold it is in the sack. And they were astonished, and troubled, and said to one another: What is this that God hath done unto 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 to Jacob their father in the land of Chanaan, and they told him all things 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 lord of the land spoke roughly to us, and took us to be spies of the country.
Tas vīrs, tas zemes kungs, runāja bargi ar mums un mūs turēja par zemes izlūkiem.
31 And we answered him: We are peaceable men, and we mean no plot.
Tad mēs tam sacījām: mēs esam taisni ļaudis, mēs neesam izlūki bijuši.
32 We are twelve brethren born of one father: one is not living, the youngest is with our father in the land of Chanaan.
Mēs bijām divpadsmit brāļi, sava tēva dēli, viena vairs nav, un tas jaunākais vēl šodien ir pie mūsu tēva Kanaāna zemē.
33 And he said to us: Hereby shall I know that you are peaceable men: Leave one of your brethren with me, and take ye necessary provision for your houses, and go your ways.
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, that I may know you are not spies: and you may receive this man again, that is kept in prison: and afterwards may have leave to buy what you will.
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 When they had told this, they poured out their corn and every man found his money tied in the mouth of his sack: and all being astonished together,
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 Their father Jacob said: You have made me to be without children: Joseph is not living, Simeon is kept in bonds, and Benjamin you will take away: all these evils are fallen upon 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 Ruben answered him: Kill my two sons if I bring him not again to thee: deliver him into my hand, and I will restore him to thee.
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: his brother is dead, and he is left alone: if any mischief befall him in the land to which you go, you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to hell. (Sheol h7585)
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 h7585)
