Genesis 12
1 Then Yahweh said to Abram, “Leave this country where you are now living. Leave your father’s clan and his family. Go to a land that I will show you.
Тогава Господ каза на Аврама: Излез от отечеството си, измежду рода си и из бащиния си дом, та иди в земята, която ще ти покажа.
2 I will cause your descendants to become a large nation. I will bless you and cause you to become (famous/highly esteemed). What I do for you will be a blessing to others.
Ще те направя голям народ; ще те благословя, и ще прославя името ти, и ще бъдеш за благословение.
3 I will bless those who (bless/ask God to do good things for) you, and I will (curse/ask God to punish) those who do evil things to you. And because of what you do, groups of people all over the earth will receive blessings (OR, people will wish that God will bless others as much as he has blessed you).”
Ще благословя ония, които те благославят, а ще прокълна всеки, който те кълне; и в тебе ще се благославят всички земни племена.
4 So Abram left Haran [town], as Yahweh told him to do. Abram was 75 years old when he left there along with his wife, Sarai, and his nephew, Lot.
И тъй, Аврам тръгна според както му рече Господ, и Лот тръгна с него. А Аврам беше на седемдесет и пет години, когато излезе от Харан.
5 Abram also took along all the possessions and slaves that they had accumulated/acquired in Haran [town], and they left there and went to Canaan land.
Аврам взе жена си Сарайя, братанеца си Лот, всичкия имот, който бяха спечелили, и хората, които бяха придобили в Харан, та излязоха, за да отидат в Ханаанската земя.
6 In Canaan they traveled as far as Shechem [town] and camped by a huge tree called the tree of Moreh. The Canaan people-group were still living in that land.
И Аврам пропътува земята до местността Сихем, до дъба Море. В това време ханаанците живееха в земята.
7 Then Yahweh appeared to Abram and said to him, “I will give this land to your descendants.” Then Abram built a stone altar to offer a sacrifice to Yahweh because Yahweh had appeared to him.
И Господ се яви на Аврама и рече: На твоето потомство ще дам тая земя. И там издигна олтар на Господа, Който му се яви.
8 From Shechem, Abram and his family traveled to the hills that were east of Bethel [town]. Bethel [town] was to the west of where they set up their tent, and Ai [town] was further to the east. There he built another stone altar and offered a sacrifice and worshiped Yahweh there.
От там се премести към хълма, който е на изток от Ветил, дето разпъна шатрата си, Ветил оставаше на запад, а Гай - на изток; и там издигна олтар на Господа и призова Господното име.
9 Then they left there and started traveling south to the Negev [Desert].
После, като се дигна, Аврам все напредваше към юг.
10 There was (a famine/very little food to eat) in Canaan, so they went south to live in Egypt for a while.
А настана глад в земята; затова Аврам слезе в Египет да поживее там, понеже гладът беше се усилил в Ханаанската земя.
11 Just as they were about to enter Egypt, Abram said to his wife Sarai, “Listen, I know that you are a very beautiful woman.
И когато наближи да влезе в Египет, рече на жена си Сарайя: Виж сега, зная, че си жена красива наглед.
12 When the people in Egypt see you, they will say, ‘This woman is his wife!’ and they will kill me in order to get you, but they will not kill you.
Египтяните, като те видят, ще рекат: Тя му е жена; и мене ще убият, а тебе ще оставят жива.
13 So I ask you to tell them that you are my sister, so that because of you telling them that, they will (spare my life/not kill me).”
Кажи, моля, че си ми сестра, за да ми бъда добре покрай тебе и да се опази живота ми, поради твоята дума.
14 And as soon as they arrived in Egypt, the people in Egypt saw that his wife was indeed very beautiful.
И като влезе Аврам в Египет, египтяните видяха, че жената беше твърде красива.
15 When the king’s officials saw her, they told the king how beautiful she was. And they took her to the king’s palace.
Видяха я и Фараоновите големци и я похвалиха на Фараона; затова жената беше заведена в дома на Фараона.
16 The king treated Abram kindly because of Sarai, and he gave Abram many sheep and cattle and donkeys and male and female slaves and camels.
И заради нея той стори добро на Аврама, който достигна да има овци, говеда, осли, слуги, слугини, ослици и камили.
17 But because the king had taken Sarai, Abram’s wife, Yahweh caused the king and the others in his household to be inflicted with terrible diseases.
Но Господ порази Фараона и дома му с тежки язви, поради Аврамовата жена Сарайя.
18 When the king realized why that was happening, he summoned Abram and said to him, “Why did you do this to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?
Тогава Фараон повика Аврама и рече: Що е това, което ти ми стори? Защо не ми каза, че ти е жена?
19 Why did you lie, saying she is your sister, with the result that I took her to be my wife? You should not have done that! So now take your wife, leave here and go!”
Защо ми каза: Сестра ми е, така че аз си я взех за жена; сега, прочее, ето жена ти; вземи я и си иди.
20 Then the king told his officials/servants to take Abram and his wife and all his possessions out of Egypt.
И Фараон му определи човеци, които изпратиха него, жена му и всичко що имаше.
