Genesis 48
1 And it came about after these things that someone said to Joseph, "Look, your father is sick." And taking with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim, he went to Jacob.
Un notikās pēc tam, ka Jāzepam sacīja: redzi, tavs tēvs ir nevesels. Tad tas ņēma līdz savus divus dēlus, Manasu un Efraīmu.
2 And someone reported to Jacob, and said, "Look, your son Joseph has come to you." Then Israel strengthened himself and sat up in the bed.
Un Jēkabam tapa teikts un sacīts: redzi, tavs dēls Jāzeps nāk pie tevis. Tad Israēls saņēmās spēkā un apsēdās uz gultas. Un Jēkabs sacīja uz Jāzepu:
3 And Jacob said to Joseph, "El Shaddai appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan and blessed me,
Tas visuvarenais Dievs man ir parādījies Lūzā, Kanaāna zemē, un mani svētījis.
4 and said to me, 'Look, I will make you fruitful and multiply you, and I will make of you a company of peoples, and will give this land to your descendants after you as an everlasting possession.'
Un viņš uz mani sacījis: redzi, Es tev likšu augļoties un tevi vairošu un tevi celšu par tautu pulku, un došu šo zemi tavam dzimumam pēc tevis par mūžīgu mantu.
5 And now your two sons, who were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you into Egypt, are mine; Ephraim and Manasseh will be mine, as Reuben and Simeon are.
Un nu taviem diviem dēliem, kas Ēģiptē dzimuši, pirms nekā es pie tevis esmu atnācis uz Ēģipti, tiem būs būt maniem; Efraīms un Manasus būs man tāpat, kā Rūbens un Sīmeans.
6 And your offspring born to you after them will be yours. But in their inheritance they are to be called after the names of their brothers.
Bet tavi bērni, kas tev dzims pēc viņiem, tev piederēs, tiem būs tapt nosauktiem pēc savu brāļu vārda viņu iemantojamā tiesā.
7 But as for me, when I came from Paddan Aram, Rachel died, in my sorrow, in the land of Canaan on the journey, when there was still some distance to go to Ephrath. And I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem)."
Kad es nu nācu no Mezopotamijas, tad Rahēle pie manis ir nomirusi Kanaāna zemē uz ceļa, mazu gabalu no Efratas, un es viņu apraku tur Efratas ceļmalā, - un šī ir Bētleme.
8 Then Israel saw Joseph's sons, and said, "Who are these?"
Un Israēls ieraudzīja Jāzepa dēlus un sacīja: kam šie ir?
9 And Joseph said to his father, "They are my sons, whom God has given me here." And he said, "Please bring them to me, so that I can bless them."
Un Jāzeps sacīja uz savu tēvu: tie ir mani dēli, ko Dievs man še devis. Un viņš sacīja: pieved jel tos pie manis, ka es tos svētīju.
10 Now the eyes of Israel were failing because of his age, so that he couldn't see. Then he brought them near to him, and he kissed them and embraced them.
Bet Israēla acis bija tumšas no vecuma, un viņš nevarēja redzēt, un tas tos pie viņa pieveda, un viņš tos skūpstīja un tos apkampa.
11 And Israel said to Joseph, "I did not expect to see your face, but look, God has let me see your offspring as well."
Un Israēls sacīja uz Jāzepu: es nedomāju redzēt tavu vaigu, un raugi, Dievs man licis redzēt arī tavu dzimumu.
12 Then Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the ground.
Un Jāzeps tos ņēma no viņa klēpja un ar savu vaigu nometās pie zemes.
13 And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near to him.
Un Jāzeps tos abus ņēma, Efraīmu ar savu labo roku Israēlim pa kreiso roku, un Manasu ar savu kreiso roku Israēlim pa labo roku, un tos viņam pieveda klāt.
14 And Israel stretched out his right hand and placed it on Ephraim's head, who was the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh's head, crossing his hands, although Manasseh was the firstborn.
Un Israēls izstiepa savu labo roku un to lika uz Efraīma galvu, jebšu tas bija tas jaunākais, un savu kreiso roku uz Manasus galvu; viņš ar ziņu tā savas rokas lika, jebšu Manasus bija tas pirmdzimtais.
15 Then he blessed Joseph, and said, "The God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, the God who has been my shepherd all my life to this day,
Un viņš svētīja Jāzepu un sacīja: tas Dievs, priekš kura vaiga mani tēvi, Ābrahāms un Īzaks, staigājuši, - tas Dievs, kas mani visu mūžu līdz šai dienai ir ganījis, -
16 the Angel who has redeemed me from all evil, bless the boys. And may my name be carried on in them, and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac. And may they grow into a multitude upon the earth."
Tas eņģelis, kas mani pestījis no visa ļauna, - tas lai svētī šos bērnus, ka iekš tiem mans vārds top nosaukts un manu tēvu, Ābrahāma un Īzaka, vārds, un ka tie pa pulkiem vairojās virs zemes.
17 When Joseph saw that his father placed his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it displeased him, and he grasped his father's hand to move it from Ephraim's head to Manasseh's head.
Un Jāzeps redzēja, ka viņa tēvs savu labo roku lika uz Efraīma galvu, un tas viņam nepatika, un viņš satvēra sava tēva roku, to nolikdams no Efraīma galvas uz Manasus galvu.
18 And Joseph said to his father, "Not so, my father, for this one is the firstborn. Put your right hand on his head."
Un Jāzeps sacīja uz savu tēvu: ne tā, mans tēvs, jo šis ir tas pirmdzimtais, liec savu labo roku uz viņa galvu.
19 But his father refused, and said, "I know, my son, I know. He also will become a people, and he also will be great. However, his younger brother will be greater than he, and his descendants will become a multitude of nations."
Bet viņa tēvs liedzās un sacīja: es to gan zinu, mans dēls, gan zinu. Arī šis būs par ļaužu pulku, un tas arī būs liels, bet tomēr viņa jaunākais brālis būs lielāks nekā viņš, un viņa dzimums būs par lielu ļaužu tautu.
20 So he blessed them that day, saying, "By you Israel will pronounce blessing, saying, 'God make you as Ephraim and as Manasseh.'" Thus he put Ephraim before Manasseh.
Un viņš tos svētīja tanī dienā un sacīja: iekš tevis Israēls svētīs un sacīs: lai Dievs tevi dara tā kā Efraīmu un kā Manasu, un viņš cēla Efraīmu pāri par Manasu.
21 Then Israel said to Joseph, "Look, I am about to die, but God will be with you, and God will bring you back from this land to the land of your fathers.
Pēc Israēls sacīja uz Jāzepu: redzi, es mirstu, bet Dievs būs ar jums un jūs vedīs atpakaļ uz jūsu tēvu zemi.
22 Moreover, I give to you one portion more than your brothers, which I took out of the hand of the Amorites with my sword and with my bow."
Un es tev dodu vienu daļu pāri par taviem brāļiem, ko es no Amoriešu rokas esmu ņēmis ar savu zobenu un ar savu stopu.
