< Genesis 28 >
1 And Isaac having called for Jacob, blessed him, and charged him, saying, You shall not take a wife of the daughters of the Chananites.
Tad Īzaks aicināja Jēkabu un to svētīja un tam pavēlēja un uz to sacīja: tev nebūs sievu ņemt no Kanaāniešu meitām.
2 Rise and depart quickly into Mesopotamia, to the house of Bathuel the father of your mother, and take to yourself thence a wife of the daughters of Laban your mother's brother.
Celies, ej uz Mezopotamiju, Betuēļa, savas mātes tēva, namā, un ņem sev sievu no turienes, no Lābana, savas mātes brāļa, meitām.
3 And may my God bless you, and increase you, and multiply you, and you shall become gatherings of nations.
Un tas visuvarenais Dievs lai tevi svētī un lai tevi dara auglīgu un lai tevi vairo, ka topi par lielu ļaužu pulku.
4 And may he give you the blessing of my father Abraam, even to you and to your seed after you, to inherit the land of your sojourning, which God gave to Abraam.
Un lai viņš tev dod Ābrahāma svētību, tev un tavam dzimumam ar tevi, ka tu vari iemantot to zemi, kur tu esi piemitis, ko Dievs Ābrahāmam ir devis.
5 So Isaac sent away Jacob, and he went into Mesopotamia to Laban the son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebecca the mother of Jacob and Esau.
Tā Īzaks atlaida Jēkabu, un tas gāja uz Mezopotamiu pie Lābana, Betuēļa, tā Sīrieša, dēla, Rebekas, Jēkaba un Ēsava mātes, brāļa.
6 And Esau saw that Isaac blessed Jacob, and sent him away to Mesopotamia of Syria as he blessed him, to take to himself a wife thence, and [that] he charged him, saying, You shall not take a wife of the daughters of the Chananites;
Kad nu Ēsavs redzēja, ka Īzaks Jēkabu bija svētījis un uz Mezopotamiu sūtījis, no turienes sievu ņemt, un ka viņš to svētījot tam bija pavēlējis sacīdams: tev nebūs sievu ņemt no Kanaāniešu meitām,
7 and [that] Jacob listened to his father and his mother, and went to Mesopotamia of Syria.
Un ka Jēkabs savam tēvam un savai mātei bija paklausījis un uz Mezopotamiu aizgājis,
8 And Esau also having seen that the daughters of Chanaan were evil before his father Isaac,
Un kad Ēsavs arī redzēja, ka Īzaks, viņa tēvs, tās Kanaāniešu meitas neieredzēja, -
9 Esau went to Ismael, and took Maeleth the daughter of Ismael, the son of Abraam, the sister of Nabeoth, a wife in addition to his [other] wives.
Tad Ēsavs gāja pie Ismaēla un ņēma klāt pie savām sievām sev par sievu Maālatu, Ismaēla, Ābrahāma dēla, meitu, Nebajota māsu. -
10 And Jacob went forth from the well of the oath, and departed into Charrhan.
Un Jēkabs aizgāja no Bēršebas un gāja uz Hāranu.
11 And came to a certain place and slept there, for the sun had gone down; and he took [one] of the stones of the place, and put it at his head, and lay down to sleep in that place,
Un tam gadījās nonākt kādā vietā, tur viņš palika par nakti, jo saule bija nogājusi; un tas ņēma vienu no tās vietas akmeņiem un lika to sev pagalvē un apgūlās tanī vietā.
12 and dreamed, and behold a ladder fixed on the earth, whose top reached to heaven, and the angels of God ascended and descended on it.
Un tas sapņoja, un redzi, trepes bija celtas virs zemes, un viņu virsgals aiztika debesis, un redzi, Dieva eņģeļi pa tām uzkāpa un nokāpa.
13 And the Lord stood upon it, and said, I am the God of your father Abraam, and the God of Isaac; fear not, the land on which you lie, to you will I give it, and to your seed.
Un redzi, Tas Kungs stāvēja virsgalā un sacīja: Es esmu Tas Kungs, tava tēva Ābrahāma Dievs un Īzaka Dievs; to zemi, kur tu guli, Es došu tev un tavam dzimumam.
14 And your seed shall be as the sand of the earth; and it shall spread abroad to the sea, and the south, and the north, and to the east; and in you and in your seed shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed.
Un tavs dzimums būs kā zemes pīšļi, un tu izplētīsies pret vakariem un pret rītiem, uz ziemeļa pusi un uz dienasvidus pusi, un caur tevi un tavu sēklu visas zemes ciltis taps svētītas.
15 And behold I am with you to preserve you continually in all the way wherein you shall go; and I will bring you back to this land; for I will not desert you, until I have done all that I have said to you.
Un redzi, Es esmu ar tevi un pasargāšu tevi visur, kur tu noiesi, un pārvedīšu tevi atkal uz šo zemi; jo Es tevi negribu atstāt, tiekams Es izdarīšu, ko Es uz tevi esmu runājis.
16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and said, The Lord is in this place, and I knew it not.
Kad nu Jēkabs no sava miega atmodās, tad tas sacīja: tiešām, Tas Kungs ir šinī vietā, un es to neesmu zinājis.
17 And he was afraid, and said, How fearful is this place! this is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.
Un viņš bijās un sacīja: cik bijājama ir šī vieta! Še ir tiešām Dieva nams un še ir debesu vārti.
18 And Jacob rose up in the morning, and took the stone he [had] laid there by his head, and he set it up [as] a pillar, and poured oil on the top of it.
Un Jēkabs cēlās rītā agri un ņēma to akmeni, kas tam bija pagalvē bijis, un to uzcēla par zīmi un tam uzlēja eļļu virsū.
19 And he called the name of that place, the House of God; and the name of the city before was Ulam-luz.
Un viņš nosauca tās vietas vārdu Bēteli (Dieva nams); bet papriekš tai pilsētai bija Lūza vārds.
20 And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If the Lord God will be with me, and guard me throughout on this journey, on which I am going, and give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,
Un Jēkabs solīdamies solījās un sacīja: ja Dievs Tas Kungs būs ar mani un mani pasargās uz šā ceļa, ko es staigāju, un man dos maizi ēst un drēbes ģērbties,
21 and bring me back in safety to the house of my father, then shall the Lord be for a God to me.
Un man liks ar mieru pāriet sava tēva namā, tad Tas Kungs lai man ir par Dievu.
22 And this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, shall be to me a house of God; and of all whatever you shall give me, I will tithe a tenth for you.
Un šim akmenim, ko esmu uzcēlis par zīmi, būs tapt par Dieva namu, un no visa, ko Tu man dosi, es Tev došu desmito tiesu.
