Genesis 31
1 Jacob found out that Laban's sons were saying, “Jacob has taken everything that belonged to our father. All the wealth he has actually came from our father.”
Un viņš dzirdēja, ka Lābana bērni sacīja: Jēkabs visu paņēmis, kas mūsu tēvam pieder, un no tā, kas mūsu tēvam piederēja, viņš visu šo mantu ir krājis.
2 Jacob also noticed that Laban was treating him differently to the way he had before.
Un Jēkabs redzēja Lābana vaigu, un redzi, tas nebija vairs, kā vakar un aizvakar.
3 The Lord told Jacob, “Go back to the country of your forefathers, to your family home. I will be with you.”
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Jēkabu: griezies atpakaļ uz savu tēva zemi un pie saviem radiem, un Es būšu ar tevi.
4 Jacob sent for Rachel and Leah, telling them to come and meet him out in the fields where he was with his flock.
Tad Jēkabs sūtīja un aicināja Rahēli un Leū uz lauku pie savām avīm,
5 “I've noticed that your father is treating me differently to the way he did before,” he told them. “But the God of my father will be with me.
Un sacīja uz tām: es redzu jūsu tēva vaigu, ka tas nav pret mani kā vakar un aizvakar, bet mana tēva Dievs ir bijis ar mani.
6 You both know very well how hard I worked for your father.
Un jūs zināt, ka ar visu savu spēku jūsu tēvam esmu kalpojis.
7 But he's been cheating me—he's reduced my wages ten times! However, God hasn't let him hurt me.
Bet jūsu tēvs mani pievīlis un manu algu desmitkārt pārgrozījis; tomēr Dievs tam nav vaļas devis, man ļaunu darīt.
8 If he said, ‘You can have the speckled ones as your wages,’ then the whole flock had speckled young. If he said, ‘You can have the streaked ones as your wages,’ then the whole flock had streaked young.
Kad viņš tā sacīja: tām lāsainām būs tev būt par algu, tad visas avis vedās lāsainas; un kad viņš tā sacīja: tām strīpainām būs tev būt par algu, tad visas avis vedās strīpainas.
9 This is how God took your father's livestock and gave them to me.
Tā Dievs jūsu tēvam tos lopus ir atņēmis un man devis.
10 During the time the flock was breeding I had a dream where I saw that the male goats mating with the flock were all streaked, speckled, or spotted.
Un notikās tanī laikā, kad avis apgājās, ka es savas acis pacēlu un redzēju sapnī, un redzi, tie āži, kas apgājās, bija strīpaini, raibi un lāsaini.
11 Then in the dream the angel of the Lord spoke to me and said, ‘Jacob!’ I replied, ‘I'm here.’
Tad tas Dieva eņģelis uz mani sacīja sapnī: Jēkab; un es sacīju: še es esmu.
12 He told me, ‘Take a look and you'll see that all the male goats mating with the flock are streaked, speckled or spotted, for I've been watching everything that Laban has been doing to you.
Un tas sacīja: pacel jel savas acis un skaties, - visi tekuļi, kas apietās ar tām avīm, ir strīpaini, lāsaini un raibi; jo Es visu to esmu redzējis, ko tev Lābans dara.
13 I am the God of Bethel, where you poured olive oil on the stone pillar and made a solemn promise to me. Now get ready to leave this land and go back to your homeland.’”
Es esmu Bēteles Dievs, kur tu esi svaidījis piemiņas akmeni, kur tu man solīdamies esi solījies; celies nu un izej no šās zemes un griezies atpakaļ uz savu dzimteni.
14 “There's nothing for us to inherit from our father's estate anyway,” Rachel and Leah replied.
Tad Rahēle un Lea atbildēja un uz to sacīja: vai mums vēl ir kāda daļa un mantība mūsu tēva namā?
15 “He treats us like foreigners because he sold us to you, and now he's spent all that money.
Vai mēs no viņa neesam turētas kā svešas? Jo viņš mūs ir pārdevis un arī mūsu maksu rīdams aprijis.
16 All the wealth that God has taken from him belongs to us and our children, so do whatever God has told you to do!”
Jo visa bagātība, ko Dievs mūsu tēvam ir atņēmis, pieder mums un mūsu bērniem; un nu dari visu to, ko Dievs tev ir sacījis.
17 So Jacob got ready. He helped his children and his wives onto the camels,
Un Jēkabs cēlās un lika savus bērnus un savas sievas uz kamieļiem;
18 and drove all his livestock in front of him. He took with him all his possessions and livestock he'd gained during his time in Paddan-aram, and left to go back to his father in the country of Canaan.
Un aizveda visus savus lopus un visu savu mantu, ko Mezopotamijā bija pelnījis, ka ietu pie Īzaka, sava tēva, uz Kanaāna zemi.
19 While Laban was away from home shearing his sheep, Rachel stole the household idols that belonged to her father.
Un Lābans bija aizgājis savas avis cirpt, un Rahēle nozaga tos elka dievus, kas bija viņas tēvam.
20 Jacob also deceived Laban the Aramean by not informing him that he was going to run away.
Un Jēkabs pievīla Lābanu, to Sīrieti, nesacīdams, ka bēgšot.
21 So Jacob left in a hurry with everything he had, crossed the Euphrates River, and headed towards the hill country of Gilead.
Un viņš bēga ar visu, kas tam bija, un cēlās un pārcēlās pār to lielo upi un grieza savu vaigu uz Gileād kalniem.
22 Three days later Laban found out that Jacob had run away.
Un trešā dienā Lābanam tapa sacīts, Jēkabu esam aizbēgušu.
23 Taking some of his relatives with him, he chased after Jacob and caught up with him seven days later in the hill country of Gilead.
Tad tas ņēma savus brāļus un dzinās tam pakaļ septiņu dienu gājumu un to panāca uz Gileād kalniem.
24 But during the night God came to Laban in a dream and told him, “Watch what you say to Jacob. Don't try to persuade him to come back, and don't threaten him either.”
Bet Dievs nāca pie Lābana, tā Sīrieša, sapnī un tam sacīja: sargies, ka tu ar Jēkabu nerunā no laba uz ļaunu.
25 Jacob had set up his tents in the hill country of Gilead when Laban caught up with him, so Laban and his relatives did the same.
Un Lābans panāca Jēkabu; un Jēkabs savu telti bija uzcēlis kalnā, un Lābans ar saviem brāļiem to uzcēla Gileād kalnos.
26 “Why did you deceive me like this?” Laban asked Jacob. “You carried off my daughters as if they were some prisoners captured by the sword!
Tad Lābans sacīja uz Jēkabu: ko tu esi darījis, ka tu mani esi pievīlis un manas meitas aizvedis, tā kā ar zobenu saņemtas?
27 Why did you run away in secret, trying to trick me? Why didn't you come and tell me? I would have given you a good send-off, a celebration with singing and the music of tambourines and lyres.
Kam tu paslepen esi aizbēdzis un no manis nozadzies, un man to neesi sacījis, ka es tev būtu pavadījis ar līksmību un dziesmām, ar bungām un koklēm?
28 You didn't even let me kiss my grandchildren and daughters goodbye! You've really acted stupidly!
Un tu man neesi ļāvis skūpstīt savus dēlus un savas meitas. Tu neprātīgi esi darījis.
29 I could really punish you badly, but the God of your father spoke to me last night and told me, ‘Watch what you say to Jacob. Don't try to persuade him to come back, and don't threaten him either.’
Spēka gan būtu manā rokā jums ļaunu darīt, bet jūsu tēva Dievs vakar uz mani runājis sacīdams: sargies, ka tu ar Jēkabu nerunā no laba uz ļaunu.
30 Clearly you wanted to leave and go back to your family home, but why did you have to steal my idols?”
Un nu, tu esi ātri aizgājis, jo tu esi ilgodamies ilgojies pēc sava tēva nama; - kāpēc tu esi nozadzis manus dievus?
31 “I ran away because I was afraid,” Jacob explained to Laban. “I was worried that you would take your daughters from me by force.
Tad Jēkabs atbildēja un sacīja uz Lābanu: man bija bail un es domāju, ka tu man savas meitas ar varu atņemsi.
32 As for your idols, anyone you find who has them will die. You can search everything in the presence of our relatives, and if you find I have anything that belongs to you, you can take it.” (Jacob didn't know that Rachel had stolen the household idols.)
Bet pie kura tu savus dievus atradīsi, tas lai nepaliek dzīvs mūsu brāļu priekšā. Izmeklē, kas man ir, un ņem tos. Bet Jēkabs nezināja, ka Rahēle tos bija nozagusi.
33 Laban searched the tents of Jacob, Leah, and the two personal maids, but didn't find anything. He left Leah's tent and went into Rachel's tent.
Un Lābans gāja Jēkaba teltī un Leas teltī un to abu kalpoņu teltī un neatrada nenieka; un izgāja no Leas telts un iegāja Rahēles teltī.
34 Rachel had put the household idols in a camel's saddlebag and was sitting on it. Laban carefully searched the whole tent but couldn't find them.
Bet Rahēle tos elka dievus bija ņēmusi un nolikusi apakš kamieļa sedliem un uzsēdusies tiem virsū. Un Lābans apgrābstīja visu to telti un tos neatrada.
35 She said to her father, “Sir, please don't get upset with me for not standing up in your presence, but I have my period.” He looked everywhere but didn't find the idols.
Un tā sacīja uz savu tēvu: neapskaisties, mans kungs, ka es priekš tevis nevaru celties, jo man klājās, kā sievām mēdz būt. Un viņš pārmeklēdams neatrada tos elka dievus.
36 Jacob got angry with Laban and confronted him, saying, “What crime am I guilty of? What wrong have I done to you that you've come hunting me down?
Tad Jēkabs apskaitās un bārās un sacīja uz Lābanu: kas ir mans noziegums, kas ir mani grēki, ka tu tik karsti man esi dzinies pakaļ?
37 You've searched through all my possessions. Did you find anything belonging to you? If you did, bring it out here before my relatives and yours so they can decide who's right!
Ka tu visus manus rīkus esi aptaustījis; ko tu esi atradis no visiem tava nama rīkiem? Liec to priekšā maniem un taviem brāļiem, ka tie starp mums abiem tiesā.
38 I've worked for you for these past twenty years. During that time none of your sheep and goats miscarried, and I haven't eaten a single ram from your flock.
Šos divdesmit gadus es pie tevis esmu bijis, tavas avis un tavas kazas nav izmetušās, un tos aunus no tavām avīm es neesmu ēdis.
39 If any of them were killed by wild animals, I never even brought you the carcass to prove the loss—I bore the loss myself. But you on the other hand always made me compensate you for any animals that were stolen, whether at night or in broad daylight.
To saplosīto es tev neesmu pārnesis, tas man bija jāmaksā; no manas rokas tu to esi prasījis, vai tas bija zagts dienā, vai tas bija zagts naktī.
40 Whether it was sweating in the heat of the day, or freezing in the cold of the night when I couldn't sleep, I went on working for you for twenty years in your home.
Es esmu tāds bijis, ka mani dienā karstums nomāca un naktī aukstums, un miegs nenāca manās acīs.
41 I worked fourteen years for your two daughters, and six more years with your flocks. You reduced my wages ten times!
Divdesmit gadus esmu bijis tavā namā, četrpadsmit gadus tev esmu kalpojis par tavām divām meitām un sešus gadus par tavām avīm, un tu manu algu desmitkārt esi pārgrozījis.
42 If it weren't for the God of my father, the God of Abraham, the awesome God of Isaac, who took care of me, you would have dismissed me with nothing. But God saw my suffering, how hard I worked, and he condemned you last night.”
Ja mana tēva Dievs, tas Ābrahāma Dievs un Tas, ko Īzaks bijās, pie manis nebūtu bijis, tu nu mani tukšu būtu aizsūtījis. Dievs manas bēdas un manu roku darbu ir uzlūkojis un tevi izgājušā naktī apsaucis.
43 Laban replied, “These are my daughters and these are my children and these are my flocks! In fact, everything you see here is mine! However, what can I do now about my daughters and their children?
Tad Lābans atbildēja un sacīja uz Jēkabu: tās meitas ir manas meitas, un tie bērni ir mani bērni, un tās avis ir manas avis, un viss, ko tu redzi, tas ir mans; un ko es šodien darīšu šīm manām meitām vai viņu bērniem, ko tās ir dzemdējušas?
44 So let's make a solemn agreement between you and I, and it will be a witness to our mutual commitment.”
Un nu nāc, darīsim derību, es un tu, ka tā ir par liecību starp mani un tevi.
45 Jacob took a stone and set it upright as a pillar.
Un Jēkabs ņēma akmeni un to uzcēla par zīmi.
46 Then he told his relatives, “Go and collect some stones.” They all made a pile of stones and then sat beside it to eat a meal.
Un Jēkabs sacīja uz saviem brāļiem: salasiet akmeņus; un tie ņēma akmeņus un salika tos vienā kopā, un ēda tur virs tās kopas.
47 Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha, while Jacob called it Galeed.
Un Lābans to nosauca Jegar-Sahāduta (āramiski: liecības kopa), bet Jēkabs to nosauca Galed (ebrejiski: liecības kopa).
48 Laban announced, “This pile of stone serves as a witness between me and you.” This is why it was called Galeed.
Un Lābans sacīja: šī kopa lai šodien liecību dod starp mani un tevi; tāpēc viņas vārdu nosauca Galedu
49 It was also called Mizpah, for as Laban said, “May the Lord keep a close eye on both of us when we're not together.
Un Micpu, tāpēc ka viņš sacīja: Tas Kungs lai skatās uz mani un uz tevi, kad mēs viens otru neredzēsim.
50 If you treat my daughters badly or marry more wives in addition to them, God will see what you do even if no one else finds out!”
Ja tu apbēdināsi manas meitas un ņemsi citas sievas pie manām meitām klāt, - neviens nav pie mums, redzi, Dievs būs liecinieks starp mani un tevi.
51 Then Laban told Jacob, “Look at this pile of stones and this pillar that I have set up as a memorial of the agreement between you and me.
Tad Lābans sacīja uz Jēkabu: redz, šī kopa, un redz, šī piemiņas zīme, ko es esmu uzcēlis starp mani un tevi.
52 They also act as a witness to our solemn promises to each other: I will not come past them to attack you; and you will not come past them to attack me.
Šī kopa lai dod liecību un šī zīme lai dod liecību, ka es gar šo kopu nenoiešu pie tevis, ļauna darīt, un ka tev gar šo kopu un šo zīmi nebūs pie manis nākt, ļauna darīt.
53 May the God of Abraham and the God of Nahor—the God of our forefathers—be the one to judge between us in any dispute.” Jacob in turn made his solemn promise in the name of the awesome God of his father Isaac.
Ābrahāma Dievs un Nahora Dievs un viņu tēvu Dievs lai tiesā starp mums.
54 Then he offered a sacrifice on the mountain and invited all his relatives to eat a meal there. They spent the night on the mountain.
Un Jēkabs zvērēja pie tā, ko viņa tēvs Īzaks bijās, un upurēja upuri kalnā un aicināja savus brāļus maizi ēst. Un tie ēda maizi un palika par nakti uz tā kalna.
55 Laban got up early in the morning and kissed his grandchildren and his daughters goodbye. He blessed them, and then left to go back home.
Un Lābans cēlās rītā agri un skūpstīja savus bērnus un savas meitas un tos svētīja. Un Lābans aizgāja un griezās atpakaļ uz savu vietu.
