Genesis 29
1 Then Jacob went on his journey, and came to the land of the children of the east.
Un Jēkabs cēlās kājās un gāja uz to ļaužu zemi, kas pret rītiem,
2 He looked, and saw a well in the field, and saw three flocks of sheep lying there by it. For out of that well they watered the flocks. The stone on the well’s mouth was large.
Un skatījās, un redzi, tur bija aka uz lauka. Un redzi, tur bija trīs avju pulki pie tās nometušies, jo no tās akas tās avis tapa dzirdinātas, un liels akmens bija uz akas cauruma.
3 There all the flocks were gathered. They rolled the stone from the well’s mouth, and watered the sheep, and put the stone back on the well’s mouth in its place.
Un turpat visi avju pulki tapa sadzīti, un tie novēla to akmeni no akas cauruma un dzirdīja tās avis un uzlika atkal to akmeni uz akas caurumu savā vietā.
4 Jacob said to them, “My relatives, where are you from?” They said, “We are from Haran.”
Tad Jēkabs uz tiem sacīja: brāļi, no kurienes jūs esat? Un tie sacīja: mēs esam no Hāranas.
5 He said to them, “Do you know Laban, the son of Nahor?” They said, “We know him.”
Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: vai jūs pazīstat Lābanu, Nahora dēlu? Un tie sacīja: pazīstam gan.
6 He said to them, “Is it well with him?” They said, “It is well. See, Rachel, his daughter, is coming with the sheep.”
Tad viņš uz tiem sacīja: vai tam labi klājās? Un tie atbildēja: labi gan; un redzi, Rahēle, viņa meita, te nāk ar avīm.
7 He said, “Behold, it is still the middle of the day, not time to gather the livestock together. Water the sheep, and go and feed them.”
Un viņš sacīja: redzi, saule vēl ir gabalā, vēl nav laiks lopus pārdzīt, dzirdinājiet tās avis un ejat un paganiet tās.
8 They said, “We can’t, until all the flocks are gathered together, and they roll the stone from the well’s mouth. Then we will water the sheep.”
Tad tie sacīja: mēs nevaram, pirms visi avju pulki nav sadzīti; tad to akmeni noveļ no akas cauruma, un mēs dzirdinām tās avis.
9 While he was yet speaking with them, Rachel came with her father’s sheep, for she kept them.
Kad viņš vēl ar tiem runāja, tad nāca Rahēle ar avīm, kas viņas tēvam piederēja, jo viņa tās ganīja.
10 When Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban, his mother’s brother, and the sheep of Laban, his mother’s brother, Jacob went near, and rolled the stone from the well’s mouth, and watered the flock of Laban his mother’s brother.
Un kad Jēkabs ieraudzīja Rahēli, savas mātes brāļa Lābana meitu, un savas mātes brāļa Lābana avis, tad tas piegāja un novēla to akmeni no akas cauruma un dzirdīja savas mātes brāļa Lābana avis.
11 Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up his voice, and wept.
Un Jēkabs skūpstīja Rahēli un pacēla savu balsi un raudāja.
12 Jacob told Rachel that he was her father’s relative, and that he was Rebekah’s son. She ran and told her father.
Un Jēkabs sacīja Rahēlei, ka esot viņas tēva radinieks un Rebekas dēls, tad tā tecēja un to pasacīja savam tēvam.
13 When Laban heard the news of Jacob, his sister’s son, he ran to meet Jacob, and embraced him, and kissed him, and brought him to his house. Jacob told Laban all these things.
Un kad Lābans dzirdēja to vēsti par Jēkabu, savas māsas dēlu, tad tas viņam tecēja pretī un viņu apkampa un skūpstīja un ieveda savā namā. Tad tas Lābanam teica visas šās lietas.
14 Laban said to him, “Surely you are my bone and my flesh.” Jacob stayed with him for a month.
Un Lābans uz viņu sacīja: tiešām, tu esi no maniem kauliem un no manas miesas; un viņš pie tā palika veselu mēnesi.
15 Laban said to Jacob, “Because you are my relative, should you therefore serve me for nothing? Tell me, what will your wages be?”
Un Lābans sacīja uz Jēkabu: jebšu tu esi mans radinieks, vai tādēļ: tu man velti kalpotu? Saki man, kādu algu tu prasi?
16 Laban had two daughters. The name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.
Un Lābanam bija divas meitas; tās vecākās vārds bija Lea un tās jaunākās vārds bija Rahēle.
17 Leah’s eyes were weak, but Rachel was beautiful in form and attractive.
Leas acis bija pavājas, bet Rahēle bija skaista no auguma un ģīmja.
18 Jacob loved Rachel. He said, “I will serve you seven years for Rachel, your younger daughter.”
Un Jēkabs mīlēja Rahēli un sacīja: es tev gribu kalpot septiņus gadus par Rahēli, tavu jaunāko meitu.
19 Laban said, “It is better that I give her to you, than that I should give her to another man. Stay with me.”
Tad Lābans sacīja: Labāki es to dodu tev, nekā citam vīram; paliec pie manis.
20 Jacob served seven years for Rachel. They seemed to him but a few days, for the love he had for her.
Un Jēkabs kalpoja par Rahēli septiņus gadus; tās likās kādas dienas vien esam, tik mīļa tā viņam bija.
21 Jacob said to Laban, “Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in to her.”
Un Jēkabs sacīja uz Lābanu: dod man manu sievu, jo manas dienas ir pilnas, ka es pie tās eju.
22 Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made a feast.
Tad Lābans sapulcēja visus tās vietas ļaudis un taisīja dzīres.
23 In the evening, he took Leah his daughter, and brought her to Jacob. He went in to her.
Un vakarā viņš ņēma savu meitu Leū un to ieveda pie viņa, un Jēkabs gāja pie tās.
24 Laban gave Zilpah his servant to his daughter Leah for a servant.
Un Lābans deva savu kalponi Zilfu Leai, savai meitai, par kalponi.
25 In the morning, behold, it was Leah! He said to Laban, “What is this you have done to me? Didn’t I serve with you for Rachel? Why then have you deceived me?”
Un notikās rītā, un redzi, tā bija Lea. Tad viņš sacīja uz Lābanu: kam tu man to esi darījis? Vai es neesmu tev kalpojis par Rahēli; kam tu mani esi pievīlis?
26 Laban said, “It is not done so in our place, to give the younger before the firstborn.
Tad Lābans sacīja: mūsu zemē nemēdz izdot jaunāko priekš pirmdzimtās.
27 Fulfil the week of this one, and we will give you the other also for the service which you will serve with me for seven more years.”
Beidz to nedēļu ar šo, tad es arī viņu tev došu par to kalpošanu, ko tu vēl citus septiņus gadus pie manis kalposi.
28 Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week. He gave him Rachel his daughter as wife.
Un Jēkabs tā darīja un beidza to nedēļu ar šo; tad Lābans tam deva Rahēli, savu meitu, par sievu.
29 Laban gave Bilhah, his servant, to his daughter Rachel to be her servant.
Un Lābans deva savu kalponi Bilu Rahēlei par kalponi.
30 He went in also to Rachel, and he loved also Rachel more than Leah, and served with him seven more years.
Un Jēkabs gāja arī pie Rahēles, un mīlēja Rahēli vairāk nekā Leū, un kalpoja pie Lābana vēl septiņus gadus.
31 The LORD saw that Leah was hated, and he opened her womb, but Rachel was barren.
Un Tas Kungs redzēja, ka Lea netapa cienīta; tad viņš to darīja auglīgu, bet Rahēle bija neauglīga.
32 Leah conceived, and bore a son, and she named him Reuben. For she said, “Because the LORD has looked at my affliction; for now my husband will love me.”
Un Lea tapa grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Rūbenu; jo tā sacīja: Tas Kungs manas bēdas ir redzējis, jo nu mans vīrs mani mīļos.
33 She conceived again, and bore a son, and said, “Because the LORD has heard that I am hated, he has therefore given me this son also.” She named him Simeon.
Un tā tapa atkal grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un sacīja: Tas Kungs dzirdējis, mani esam necienītu, viņš man arī šo ir devis; un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Sīmeanu.
34 She conceived again, and bore a son. She said, “Now this time my husband will be joined to me, because I have borne him three sons.” Therefore his name was called Levi.
Un tā tapa atkal grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un sacīja: nu jel mans vīrs mani mīlēs; jo es viņam esmu dzemdējusi trīs dēlus. Tādēļ tā nosauca viņa vārdu Levi.
35 She conceived again, and bore a son. She said, “This time I will praise the LORD.” Therefore she named him Judah. Then she stopped bearing.
Un viņa tapa atkal grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un sacīja: šo brīdi es slavēšu To Kungu. Tādēļ tā viņa vārdu nosauca Jūdu. Un tā mitējās dzemdēt.
