< Genesis 13 >

1 Abram went up out of Egypt—he, his wife, all that he had, and Lot with him—into the South.
Tad Ābrams aizgāja no Ēģiptes uz (Kanaāna) dienvidus zemi, viņš ar savu sievu un ar visu, kas viņam bija, un Lats līdz ar viņu.
2 Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.
Un Ābrams bija ļoti bagāts ar lopiem, ar sudrabu un ar zeltu.
3 He went on his journeys from the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,
Un viņš gāja savu ceļu no dienvidus zemes uz Bēteli līdz tai vietai, kur iesākumā viņa telts bija starp Bēteli un starp Aju,
4 to the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first. There Abram called on the LORD’s name.
Līdz tā altāra vietai, ko viņš iesākumā bija cēlis; un Ābrams tur piesauca Tā Kunga vārdu.
5 Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, herds, and tents.
Un Latam, kas Ābramam gāja līdz, bija arīdzan avis un vērši un teltis.
6 The land was not able to bear them, that they might live together; for their possessions were so great that they couldn’t live together.
Un tā zeme tos nepanesa, ka varētu kopā dzīvot, jo viņu manta bija liela, un tie nevarēja kopā dzīvot.
7 There was strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. The Canaanites and the Perizzites lived in the land at that time.
Un strīdus cēlās starp Ābrama lopu ganiem un Lata lopu ganiem; un Kanaānieši un Ferezieši dzīvoja tolaik tai zemē.
8 Abram said to Lot, “Please, let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herdsmen and my herdsmen; for we are relatives.
Tad Ābrams sacīja uz Latu: lūdzams, lai jel strīdus nav starp mani un tevi, un starp maniem ganiem un taviem ganiem, jo mēs esam brāļi.
9 Isn’t the whole land before you? Please separate yourself from me. If you go to the left hand, then I will go to the right. Or if you go to the right hand, then I will go to the left.”
Vai visa zeme nav tavā priekšā? Atšķiries jel no manis; ja tu gribi pa kreiso roku, tad es gribu pa labo, bet ja tu gribi pa labo roku, tad es iešu pa kreiso.
10 Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of the Jordan, that it was well-watered everywhere, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as you go to Zoar.
Un Lats pacēla savas acis un redzēja visu Jardānes apgabalu, ka tas bija bagāts ar ūdeni, (pirms nekā Tas Kungs Sodomu un Gomoru izpostīja), tā kā Tā Kunga dārzs, itin kā Ēģiptes zeme, kamēr nāk līdz Coārai.
11 So Lot chose the Plain of the Jordan for himself. Lot travelled east, and they separated themselves from one other.
Tad Lats izredzējās visu Jardānes apgabalu, un Lats aizgāja pret rītiem, un tie šķīrās viens no otra.
12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, and Lot lived in the cities of the plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.
Ābrams dzīvoja Kanaāna zemē, un Lats dzīvoja Jardānes apgabala pilsētās un cēla savas teltis līdz Sodomai.
13 Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinners against the LORD.
Bet Sodomieši bija ļauni un ļoti grēcīgi pret To Kungu.
14 The LORD said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him, “Now, lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward,
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Ābramu, kad Lats no viņa bija šķīries: pacel jel savas acis un lūko no tās vietas, kur tu esi, uz ziemeļa pusi un uz dienvidiem un uz rītiem un uz jūru.
15 for I will give all the land which you see to you and to your offspring forever.
Jo visu to zemi, ko tu redzi, Es došu tev un tavam dzimumam mūžīgi.
16 I will make your offspring as the dust of the earth, so that if a man can count the dust of the earth, then your offspring may also be counted.
Un Es darīšu tavu dzimumu tā kā zemes pīšļus, ja kas varēs izskaitīt zemes pīšļus, tas varēs izskaitīt arī tavu dzimumu.
17 Arise, walk through the land in its length and in its width; for I will give it to you.”
Celies, pārstaigā to zemi krustām šķērsām, jo tev Es to gribu dot.
18 Abram moved his tent, and came and lived by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to the LORD.
Un Ābrams cēla teltis un nāca un dzīvoja starp Mamres ozoliem pie Hebrones, un uztaisīja tur Tam Kungam altāri.
