Genesis 47
1 Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, and said, “My father and my brothers, with their flocks, their herds, and all that they own, have come out of the land of Canaan; and behold, they are in the land of Goshen.”
Tad Jāzeps nāca un pasludināja Faraonam un sacīja: mans tēvs un mani brāļi un viņu sīkie lopi un viņu vērši un viss, kas tiem pieder, ir atnākuši no Kanaāna zemes, un redzi, tie ir Gošenes zemē.
2 From among his brothers he took five men, and presented them to Pharaoh.
Un viņš ņēma piecus no visiem saviem brāļiem, un tos veda Faraona priekšā.
3 Pharaoh said to his brothers, “What is your occupation?” They said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are shepherds, both we, and our fathers.”
Un Faraons sacīja uz viņa brāļiem: kas ir jūsu darbs? Un tie sacīja uz Faraonu: tavi kalpi ir lopu gani, tā pat mēs kā mūsu tēvi. Un tie sacīja uz Faraonu:
4 They also said to Pharaoh, “We have come to live as foreigners in the land, for there is no pasture for your servants’ flocks. For the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. Now therefore, please let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen.”
Mēs esam nākuši šinī zemē piemist, jo ganības trūkst tiem sīkiem lopiem, kas taviem kalpiem pieder, jo bads ir grūts Kanaāna zemē, un nu vēli, lūdzams, lai tavi kalpi apmetās Gošenes zemē.
5 Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, “Your father and your brothers have come to you.
Tad Faraons runāja uz Jāzepu un sacīja: tavs tēvs un tavi brāļi pie tevis atnākuši.
6 The land of Egypt is before you. Make your father and your brothers dwell in the best of the land. Let them dwell in the land of Goshen. If you know any able men among them, then put them in charge of my livestock.”
Ēģiptes zeme stāv tev atvērā; lai tavs tēvs un tavi brāļi dzīvo tai vislabākā zemes vietā, - lai tie mīt Gošenes zemē, un ja tu zini, ka starp tiem ir krietni vīri, tad iecel tos par manu lopu uzraugiem.
7 Joseph brought in Jacob, his father, and set him before Pharaoh; and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
Un Jāzeps atveda savu tēvu Jēkabu, un to stādīja Faraona priekšā, un Jēkabs svētīja Faraonu.
8 Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How old are you?”
Un Faraons sacīja uz Jēkabu: Cik gadu tavām dzīvības dienām?
9 Jacob said to Pharaoh, “The years of my pilgrimage are one hundred thirty years. The days of the years of my life have been few and evil. They have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage.”
Tad Jēkabs sacīja uz Faraonu: manas svešniecības gadu dienas ir simts un trīsdesmit gadi; īsas un grūtas ir bijušas manas dzīvības gadu dienas un nepanāk manu tēvu gadus viņu svešniecības dienās.
10 Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from the presence of Pharaoh.
Un Jēkabs svētīja Faraonu un izgāja no Faraona.
11 Joseph placed his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
Un Jāzeps savam tēvam un saviem brāļiem iedeva mājas vietas, un tiem deva Ēģiptes zemē to labāko zemes vietu turēt, Raēmzes tiesā, tā kā Faraons bija pavēlējis.
12 Joseph provided his father, his brothers, and all of his father’s household with bread, according to the sizes of their families.
Un Jāzeps uzturēja savu tēvu un savus brāļus un visu sava tēva namu ar maizi, kā kuram bija bērnu.
13 There was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.
Un pa visām zemēm nebija maizes; jo bads bija ļoti grūts, tā ka Ēģiptes zemē un Kanaāna zemē aiz bada nevarēja glābties.
14 Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh’s house.
Un Jāzeps sakrāja visu naudu, kas atradās Ēģiptes zemē un Kanaāna zemē par to labību, ko tie pirka, un Jāzeps to naudu nesa Faraona namā.
15 When the money was all spent in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, “Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence? For our money fails.”
Kad nu tā nauda Ēģiptes zemē un Kanaāna zemē bija pagalam, tad visi ēģiptieši nāca pie Jāzepa un sacīja: dod mums maizes, kādēļ mums tavā priekšā būs mirt, kad naudas vairs nav?
16 Joseph said, “Give me your livestock; and I will give you food for your livestock, if your money is gone.”
Tad Jāzeps sacīja: dodiet savus lopus; tad es jums došu par jūsu lopiem, kad naudas nav.
17 They brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for the horses, and for the flocks, and for the herds, and for the donkeys: and he fed them with bread in exchange for all their livestock for that year.
Tad tie veda savus lopus pie Jāzepa, un Jāzeps tiem deva maizes par zirgiem un par sīkiem lopiem un par vēršiem un par ēzeļiem, un viņš tos to gadu izmitināja ar maizi par visiem viņu lopiem.
18 When that year was ended, they came to him the second year, and said to him, “We will not hide from my lord how our money is all spent, and the herds of livestock are my lord’s. There is nothing left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands.
Kad tas gads bija galā, tad tie otrā gadā pie viņa nāca un uz viņu sacīja: mēs neapslēpsim priekš sava kunga, ka nevien tā nauda ir beigta, bet arī tie lopi mūsu kungam ir kļuvuši un nekas nav atlicis priekš mūsu kunga, kā vien mūsu miesas un mūsu tīrumi.
19 Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh. Give us seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land won’t be desolate.”
Kādēļ mums būs bojā iet priekš tavām acīm, mums un mūsu tīrumiem? Pērc mūs un mūsu tīrumus par maizi, tad mēs ar savu tīrumu Faraonam būsim par kalpiem, un dodi sēklu, ka mēs dzīvojam un nemirstam, un mūsu zeme nepaliek tukša.
20 So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh, for every man of the Egyptians sold his field, because the famine was severe on them, and the land became Pharaoh’s.
Tad Jāzeps visus ēģiptiešu tīrumus pirka priekš Faraona, jo ēģiptieši pārdeva ikviens savu tīrumu, tāpēc ka bads tiem bija grūts.
21 As for the people, he moved them to the cities from one end of the border of Egypt even to the other end of it.
Tad tā zeme kļuva Faraona rokā, un viņš tos ļaudis pārcēla pilsētās, no viena Ēģiptes robežu gala līdz otram galam.
22 Only he didn’t buy the land of the priests, for the priests had a portion from Pharaoh, and ate their portion which Pharaoh gave them. That is why they didn’t sell their land.
Tikai priesteru tīrumus viņš nepirka, jo priesteriem bija sava daļa no Faraona, un tie ēda no savas daļas, ko Faraons tiem deva, tādēļ tie savu tīrumu nepārdeva.
23 Then Joseph said to the people, “Behold, I have bought you and your land today for Pharaoh. Behold, here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land.
Tad Jāzeps sacīja uz tiem ļaudīm: redzi, es šodien jūs un jūsu tīrumus esmu pircis Faraonam, redzi, še jums sēkla, ka jūs tīrumus apsējat.
24 It will happen at the harvests, that you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four parts will be your own, for seed of the field, for your food, for them of your households, and for food for your little ones.”
Bet ar augļiem tas tā būs, ka jūs piekto tiesu dodat Faraonam, un četras daļas jums piederēs, tīrumus apsēt un par pārtiku jums un tiem, kas jūsu namā, un par pārtiku jūsu bērniņiem.
25 They said, “You have saved our lives! Let us find favor in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh’s servants.”
Un tie sacīja: tu mūs esi uzturējis dzīvus; lai žēlastību atrodam sava kunga acīs, tad mēs būsim Faraona kalpi.
26 Joseph made it a statute concerning the land of Egypt to this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth. Only the land of the priests alone didn’t become Pharaoh’s.
Tad Jāzeps to iecēla par likumu pār ēģiptiešu tīrumiem līdz šai dienai, ka Faraonam tā piektā tiesa nāktos, - tikai priesteru zeme vien nekļuva Faraonam.
27 Israel lived in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen; and they got themselves possessions therein, and were fruitful, and multiplied exceedingly.
Un Israēls mita Ēģiptē Gošenes zemē, un tur uzturējās un auga un vairojās ļoti.
28 Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years. So the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were one hundred forty-seven years.
Un Jēkabs dzīvoja Ēģiptes zemē septiņpadsmit gadus, un Jēkaba dienas bija simts četrdesmit un septiņi gadi.
29 The time came near that Israel must die, and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, “If now I have found favor in your sight, please put your hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me. Please don’t bury me in Egypt,
Kad nu Israēla laiks pienāca, ka tam bija mirt, tad viņš sauca savu dēlu Jāzepu un uz to sacīja: ja es tavās acīs esmu atradis žēlastību, tad liec jel lūdzams savu roku apakš manas ciskas un dari pie manis žēlastību un patiesību: neaproc jel mani Ēģiptes zemē;
30 but when I sleep with my fathers, you shall carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their burying place.” Joseph said, “I will do as you have said.”
Bet es gribu gulēt pie saviem tēviem; un tev būs mani izvest no Ēģiptes un mani aprakt viņu kapos, - un tas sacīja: es darīšu pēc tava vārda.
31 Israel said, “Swear to me,” and he swore to him. Then Israel bowed himself on the bed’s head.
Tad viņš sacīja: zvērē man. Un tas viņam zvērēja. Un Israēls pielūdza Dievu savas gultas galvgalā.
