Exodus 5
1 And afterward Moses and Aaron came, and said unto Pharaoh: 'Thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel: Let My people go, that they may hold a feast unto Me in the wilderness.'
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 And Pharaoh said: 'Who is the LORD, that I should hearken unto His voice to let Israel go? I know not the LORD, and moreover I will not 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 met with us. Let us go, we pray thee, three days' journey into the wilderness, and sacrifice unto the LORD our God; lest He fall upon us with pestilence, or with the sword.'
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 And the king of Egypt said unto them: 'Wherefore do ye, Moses and Aaron, cause the people to break loose from their work? get you unto 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 Pharaoh said: 'Behold, the people of the land are now many, and will ye make them rest from their burdens?'
Vēl Faraons sacīja: redzi, ļaužu tai zemē tā jau daudz, un jūs tos vēl gribat atturēt no viņu kalpošanas?
6 And the same day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people, and their officers, saying:
Un Faraons tai dienā ļaužu uzraugiem un virsniekiem pavēlēja un sacīja:
7 'Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore. Let them go and gather straw for themselves.
Jums turpmāk nebūs tiem ļaudīm dot salmus pie ķieģeļu taisīšanas, kā vakar un aizvakar; tiem pašiem būs iet un sev salmus meklēt.
8 And the tale of the bricks, which they did make heretofore, ye shall lay upon them; ye shall not diminish aught thereof; for they are idle; 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 heavier work be laid upon the men, that they may labour therein; and let them not regard lying words.'
Lai tiem vīriem tā kalpošana top grūtāka, ka tiem ir darbs, un tie negriežās pie blēņām.
10 And the taskmasters of the people went out, and their officers, and they spoke to the people, saying: 'Thus saith Pharaoh: I will not give you straw.
Tad tie ļaužu uzraugi un virsnieki izgāja un runāja uz tiem ļaudīm sacīdami: Tā saka Faraons: es jums vairs nedošu salmus.
11 Go yourselves, get you straw where ye can find it; for nought of your work shall be diminished.'
Ejat paši, dabūjiet sev salmus kur dabūdami, bet no jūsu darba nekas netaps atlaists.
12 So the people were scattered abroad throughout all the land of Egypt to gather stubble for straw.
Tad tie ļaudis izklīda pa visu Ēģiptes zemi, ka tie rugājus sakrātu salmu vietā.
13 And the taskmasters were urgent, saying: 'Fulfil your work, your daily task, as when there was straw.'
Un tie uzraugi tos spieda, sacīdami: Pabeidziet savu dienas darbu it tāpat, kā kad jums salmi bija.
14 And the officers of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, saying: 'Wherefore have ye not fulfilled your appointed task in making brick both yesterday and today as heretofore?'
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 Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried unto Pharaoh, saying: 'Wherefore dealest thou thus with thy servants?
Tad Israēla bērnu uzraugi gāja un brēca uz Faraonu un sacīja: kāpēc tu saviem kalpiem tā dari?
16 There is no straw given unto thy servants, and they say to us: Make brick; and, behold, thy servants are beaten, but the fault is in thine own people.'
Taviem kalpiem salmus nedod, un mums saka: taisāt ķieģeļus; un redzi, tavi kalpi top sisti, un tā ir tavas tautas vaina.
17 But he said: 'Ye are idle, ye are idle; therefore ye 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 now, and work; for there shall no straw be given you, yet shall ye deliver the tale of bricks.'
Tad nu ejat pie darba, salmus jums nedos, bet ķieģeļu skaits jums jātaisa.
19 And the officers of the children of Israel did see that they were set on mischief, when they said: 'Ye shall not diminish aught from your bricks, your daily task.'
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 in the way, as they came forth from Pharaoh;
Un tie sastapa Mozu un Āronu, kas tur stāvēja tos sagaidīt, kad tie no Faraona izgāja,
21 and they said unto them: 'The LORD look upon you, and judge; because ye have made our savour to be abhorred in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to slay 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 unto the LORD, and said: 'Lord, wherefore hast Thou dealt ill with this people? why is it that Thou hast 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 I came to Pharaoh to speak in Thy name, he hath dealt ill with this people; neither hast Thou delivered Thy people at all.'
Jo kamēr es esmu gājis pie Faraona, runāt Tavā vārdā, viņš tiem ļaudīm dara ļaunu, un Tu Savus ļaudis glābt neesi glābis.
