Genesis 47
1 Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brothers, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, are come out of the land of Canaan; and, behold, they are in the land of Goshen.
Tad Jāzeps nāca un pasludināja Faraonam un sacīja: mans tēvs un mani brāļi un viņu sīkie lopi un viņu vērši un viss, kas tiem pieder, ir atnākuši no Kanaāna zemes, un redzi, tie ir Gošenes zemē.
2 And he took some of his brothers, even five men, and presented them to Pharaoh.
Un viņš ņēma piecus no visiem saviem brāļiem, un tos veda Faraona priekšā.
3 And Pharaoh said to his brothers, What is your occupation? And they said to Pharaoh, Your servants are shepherds, both we, and also our fathers.
Un Faraons sacīja uz viņa brāļiem: kas ir jūsu darbs? Un tie sacīja uz Faraonu: tavi kalpi ir lopu gani, tā pat mēs kā mūsu tēvi. Un tie sacīja uz Faraonu:
4 They said morever to Pharaoh, For to sojourn in the land are we come; for your servants have no pasture for their flocks; for the famine is sore in the land of Canaan: now therefore, we pray you, let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen.
Mēs esam nākuši šinī zemē piemist, jo ganības trūkst tiem sīkiem lopiem, kas taviem kalpiem pieder, jo bads ir grūts Kanaāna zemē, un nu vēli, lūdzams, lai tavi kalpi apmetās Gošenes zemē.
5 And Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, Your father and your brothers are come to you:
Tad Faraons runāja uz Jāzepu un sacīja: tavs tēvs un tavi brāļi pie tevis atnākuši.
6 The land of Egypt is before you; in the best of the land make your father and brothers to dwell; in the land of Goshen let them dwell: and if you know any men of activity among them, then make them rulers over my cattle.
Ēģiptes zeme stāv tev atvērā; lai tavs tēvs un tavi brāļi dzīvo tai vislabākā zemes vietā, - lai tie mīt Gošenes zemē, un ja tu zini, ka starp tiem ir krietni vīri, tad iecel tos par manu lopu uzraugiem.
7 And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh: and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
Un Jāzeps atveda savu tēvu Jēkabu, un to stādīja Faraona priekšā, un Jēkabs svētīja Faraonu.
8 And Pharaoh said to Jacob, How old are you?
Un Faraons sacīja uz Jēkabu: Cik gadu tavām dzīvības dienām?
9 And Jacob said to Pharaoh, The days of the years of my pilgrimage are an hundred and thirty years: few and evil have the days of the years of my life been, and have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.
Tad Jēkabs sacīja uz Faraonu: manas svešniecības gadu dienas ir simts un trīsdesmit gadi; īsas un grūtas ir bijušas manas dzīvības gadu dienas un nepanāk manu tēvu gadus viņu svešniecības dienās.
10 And Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh.
Un Jēkabs svētīja Faraonu un izgāja no Faraona.
11 And Joseph placed his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
Un Jāzeps savam tēvam un saviem brāļiem iedeva mājas vietas, un tiem deva Ēģiptes zemē to labāko zemes vietu turēt, Raēmzes tiesā, tā kā Faraons bija pavēlējis.
12 And Joseph nourished his father, and his brothers, and all his father’s household, with bread, according to their families.
Un Jāzeps uzturēja savu tēvu un savus brāļus un visu sava tēva namu ar maizi, kā kuram bija bērnu.
13 And there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very sore, so that the land of Egypt and all the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.
Un pa visām zemēm nebija maizes; jo bads bija ļoti grūts, tā ka Ēģiptes zemē un Kanaāna zemē aiz bada nevarēja glābties.
14 And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the corn which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh’s house.
Un Jāzeps sakrāja visu naudu, kas atradās Ēģiptes zemē un Kanaāna zemē par to labību, ko tie pirka, un Jāzeps to naudu nesa Faraona namā.
15 And when money failed in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, Give us bread: for why should we die in your presence? for the money fails.
Kad nu tā nauda Ēģiptes zemē un Kanaāna zemē bija pagalam, tad visi ēģiptieši nāca pie Jāzepa un sacīja: dod mums maizes, kādēļ mums tavā priekšā būs mirt, kad naudas vairs nav?
16 And Joseph said, Give your cattle; and I will give you for your cattle, if money fail.
Tad Jāzeps sacīja: dodiet savus lopus; tad es jums došu par jūsu lopiem, kad naudas nav.
17 And they brought their cattle to Joseph: and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for horses, and for the flocks, and for the cattle of the herds, and for the asses: and he fed them with bread for all their cattle for that year.
Tad tie veda savus lopus pie Jāzepa, un Jāzeps tiem deva maizes par zirgiem un par sīkiem lopiem un par vēršiem un par ēzeļiem, un viņš tos to gadu izmitināja ar maizi par visiem viņu lopiem.
18 When that year was ended, they came to him the second year, and said to him, We will not hide it from my lord, how that our money is spent; my lord also has our herds of cattle; there is not anything left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands:
Kad tas gads bija galā, tad tie otrā gadā pie viņa nāca un uz viņu sacīja: mēs neapslēpsim priekš sava kunga, ka nevien tā nauda ir beigta, bet arī tie lopi mūsu kungam ir kļuvuši un nekas nav atlicis priekš mūsu kunga, kā vien mūsu miesas un mūsu tīrumi.
19 Why shall we die before your eyes, both we and our land? buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh: and give us seed, that we may live, and not die, that the land be not desolate.
Kādēļ mums būs bojā iet priekš tavām acīm, mums un mūsu tīrumiem? Pērc mūs un mūsu tīrumus par maizi, tad mēs ar savu tīrumu Faraonam būsim par kalpiem, un dodi sēklu, ka mēs dzīvojam un nemirstam, un mūsu zeme nepaliek tukša.
20 And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold every man his field, because the famine prevailed over them: so the land became Pharaoh’s.
Tad Jāzeps visus ēģiptiešu tīrumus pirka priekš Faraona, jo ēģiptieši pārdeva ikviens savu tīrumu, tāpēc ka bads tiem bija grūts.
21 And as for the people, he removed them to cities from one end of the borders of Egypt even to the other end thereof.
Tad tā zeme kļuva Faraona rokā, un viņš tos ļaudis pārcēla pilsētās, no viena Ēģiptes robežu gala līdz otram galam.
22 Only the land of the priests bought he not; for the priests had a portion assigned them of Pharaoh, and did eat their portion which Pharaoh gave them: why they sold not their lands.
Tikai priesteru tīrumus viņš nepirka, jo priesteriem bija sava daļa no Faraona, un tie ēda no savas daļas, ko Faraons tiem deva, tādēļ tie savu tīrumu nepārdeva.
23 Then Joseph said to the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: see, here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land.
Tad Jāzeps sacīja uz tiem ļaudīm: redzi, es šodien jūs un jūsu tīrumus esmu pircis Faraonam, redzi, še jums sēkla, ka jūs tīrumus apsējat.
24 And it shall come to pass in the increase, that you shall give the fifth part to Pharaoh, and four parts shall be your own, for seed of the field, and for your food, and for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.
Bet ar augļiem tas tā būs, ka jūs piekto tiesu dodat Faraonam, un četras daļas jums piederēs, tīrumus apsēt un par pārtiku jums un tiem, kas jūsu namā, un par pārtiku jūsu bērniņiem.
25 And they said, You have saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.
Un tie sacīja: tu mūs esi uzturējis dzīvus; lai žēlastību atrodam sava kunga acīs, tad mēs būsim Faraona kalpi.
26 And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt to this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth part, except the land of the priests only, which became not Pharaoh’s.
Tad Jāzeps to iecēla par likumu pār ēģiptiešu tīrumiem līdz šai dienai, ka Faraonam tā piektā tiesa nāktos, - tikai priesteru zeme vien nekļuva Faraonam.
27 And Israel dwelled in the land of Egypt, in the country of Goshen; and they had possessions therein, and grew, and multiplied exceedingly.
Un Israēls mita Ēģiptē Gošenes zemē, un tur uzturējās un auga un vairojās ļoti.
28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years: so the whole age of Jacob was an hundred forty and seven years.
Un Jēkabs dzīvoja Ēģiptes zemē septiņpadsmit gadus, un Jēkaba dienas bija simts četrdesmit un septiņi gadi.
29 And the time drew near that Israel must die: and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, If now I have found grace in your sight, put, I pray you, your hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me; bury me not, I pray you, in Egypt:
Kad nu Israēla laiks pienāca, ka tam bija mirt, tad viņš sauca savu dēlu Jāzepu un uz to sacīja: ja es tavās acīs esmu atradis žēlastību, tad liec jel lūdzams savu roku apakš manas ciskas un dari pie manis žēlastību un patiesību: neaproc jel mani Ēģiptes zemē;
30 But I will lie with my fathers, and you shall carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their burial plot. And he said, I will do as you have said.
Bet es gribu gulēt pie saviem tēviem; un tev būs mani izvest no Ēģiptes un mani aprakt viņu kapos, - un tas sacīja: es darīšu pēc tava vārda.
31 And he said, Swear to me. And he swore to him. And Israel bowed himself on the bed’s head.
Tad viņš sacīja: zvērē man. Un tas viņam zvērēja. Un Israēls pielūdza Dievu savas gultas galvgalā.
