< Genesis 42 >
1 And Jacob sees that there is grain in Egypt, and Jacob says to his sons, “Why do you look at each other?”
Kad nu Jēkabs redzēja, ka labība bija Ēģiptes zemē, tad viņš saviem dēliem sacīja: ko jūs skatāties?
2 He also says, “Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt, go down there, and buy for us from there, and we live and do not die”;
Un viņš sacīja: redzi, es esmu dzirdējis, labību esam Ēģiptes zemē, noejat turp un pērciet mums no turienes, lai dzīvojam un nemirstam.
3 and the ten brothers of Joseph go down to buy grain in Egypt,
Tad desmit Jāzepa brāļi nogāja, labības pirkt no Ēģiptes zemes.
4 and Benjamin, Joseph’s brother, Jacob has not sent with his brothers, for he said, “Lest harm meet him.”
Bet Benjaminu, Jāzepa brāli, Jēkabs nesūtīja ar viņa brāļiem, jo tas sacīja: ka to kāda nelaime neaizņem.
5 And the sons of Israel come to buy in the midst of those coming, for the famine has been in the land of Canaan,
Tā Israēla dēli nāca, labības pirkt līdz ar citiem, kas turp gāja, jo bads bija arī Kanaāna zemē.
6 and Joseph is the ruler over the land, he who is selling to all the people of the land, and Joseph’s brothers come and bow themselves to him—face to the earth.
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 Joseph sees his brothers, and discerns them, and makes himself strange to them, and speaks sharp things with them, and says to them, “From where have you come?” And they say, “From the land of Canaan—to buy food.”
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 Joseph discerns his brothers, but they have not discerned him,
Un Jāzeps pazina savus brāļus, bet tie viņu nepazina.
9 and Joseph remembers the dreams which he dreamed of them and says to them, “You [are] spies; you have come to see the nakedness 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 And they say to him, “No, my lord, but your servants have come to buy food;
Un tie uz viņu sacīja: nē, mans kungs, tavi kalpi ir nākuši, maizes pirkt.
11 we [are] all of us sons of one man, we [are] right men; your servants have not been spies”;
Mēs visi esam viena vīra dēli, mēs esam taisni ļaudis, tavi kalpi nav izlūki.
12 and he says to them, “No, but you have come to see the nakedness of the land”;
Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: nē, bet jūs esat nākuši izlūkot, kur zemei var piekļūt.
13 and they say, “Your servants [are] twelve brothers; we [are] sons of one man in the land of Canaan, and behold, the young one [is] with our father today, and one is not.”
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 And Joseph says to them, “This [is] that which I have spoken to you, saying, You [are] spies,
Tad Jāzeps uz tiem sacīja: tā tas ir, kā es uz jums esmu runājis un sacījis: jūs esat izlūki.
15 by this you are proved: [as] Pharaoh lives, if you go out from this—except by your young brother coming here;
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, and let him bring your brother, and you, remain bound, and let your words be proved, whether truth be with you: and if not, [as] Pharaoh lives, surely 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 and he gathers them into confinement [for] three days.
Un viņš tos kopā lika trīs dienas cietumā.
18 And Joseph says to them on the third day, “Do this and live; I fear God!
Un trešā dienā Jāzeps uz tiem sacīja: dariet tā, tad jūs dzīvosiet; es bīstos Dievu.
19 If you [are] right men, let one of your brothers be bound in the house of your confinement, and you, go, carry in grain [for] the famine of 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 you bring your young brother to me, and your words are established, and you do not die”; and they do so.
Un atvediet savu jaunāko brāli pie manis, tad jūsu vārdi taps atrasti taisni, un jūs nemirsiet; un tie tā darīja.
21 And they say to one another, “Truly we [are] guilty concerning our brother, because we saw the distress of his soul, in his making supplication to us, and we did not listen: therefore this distress has come on 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 Reuben answers them, saying, “Did I not speak to you, saying, Do not sin against the boy? And you did not listen; and his blood also, behold, it 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 have not known that Joseph understands, for the interpreter [is] between them;
Un tie nezināja, ka Jāzeps to saprata, jo tur bija tulks viņu starpā.
24 and he turns around from them, and weeps, and turns back to them, and speaks to them, and takes Simeon from them, and binds him before their eyes.
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 Joseph commands, and they fill their vessels [with] grain, also to put back the money of each of them into his sack, and to give to them provision for the way; and one does to them 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 And they lift up their grain on their donkeys, and go from there,
Un tie uzkrāva savu labību uz saviem ēzeļiem un aizgāja no turienes.
27 and the one opens his sack to give provender to his donkey at a lodging-place, and he sees his money, and behold, it [is] in the mouth of his bag,
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 he says to his brothers, “My money has been put back, and also, behold, in my bag”: and their heart goes out, and they tremble, to one another saying, “What [is] this God has done to 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 come to their father Jacob, to the land of Canaan, and they declare to him all the things meeting them, saying,
Un tie nāca pie Jēkaba, sava tēva, uz Kanaāna zemi un teica tam visu, kas tiem bija noticis, un sacīja:
30 “The man, the lord of the land, has spoken with us sharp things, and makes us as spies of the land;
Tas vīrs, tas zemes kungs, runāja bargi ar mums un mūs turēja par zemes izlūkiem.
31 and we say to him, We [are] right men, we have not been spies,
Tad mēs tam sacījām: mēs esam taisni ļaudis, mēs neesam izlūki bijuši.
32 we [are] twelve brothers, sons of our father, one is not, and the young one [is] today with our father in the land of Canaan.
Mēs bijām divpadsmit brāļi, sava tēva dēli, viena vairs nav, un tas jaunākais vēl šodien ir pie mūsu tēva Kanaāna zemē.
33 And the man, the lord of the land, says to us, By this I know that you [are] right men—leave one of your brothers with me, and take [for] the famine of your houses and go,
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 young brother to me, and I know that you [are] not spies, but you [are] right men; I give your brother to you, and you trade with the land.”
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 And it comes to pass, they are emptying their sacks, and behold, the bundle of each man’s silver [is] in his sack, and they see their bundles of silver, they and their father, and are afraid;
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 and their father Jacob says to them, “You have bereaved me; Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and Benjamin you take—all these [things] have been against 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 Reuben speaks to his father, saying, “You put to death my two sons, if I do not bring him to you; give him into my hand, and I bring him back to you”;
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 and he says, “My son does not go down with you, for his brother [is] dead, and he by himself is left; when harm has met him in the way in which you go, then you have brought down my grey hairs in sorrow to Sheol.” (Sheol )
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 )
