< Otra Mozus 3 >
1 Un Mozus ganīja Jetrus, sava tēvoča, Midijanas priestera, avis un dzina tās avis aiz tuksneša un nāca pie Dieva kalna Horebā.
Moses/I was taking care of the sheep that belonged to his/my father-in-law Jethro, the priest of the Midian [people]. He/I led the flock across the desert and came to Horeb, [the mountain that was later called Sinai], the (mountain that [had been dedicated to] God/taboo mountain).
2 Un Tā Kunga eņģelis viņam parādījās uguns liesmā no ērkšķu krūma, un viņš skatījās un redzi, tas ērkšķu krūms dega ar uguni, bet tas ērkšķu krūms nesadega.
[One day] Yahweh (appeared/revealed himself) to him/me, [looking like] an angel. The angel appeared in a flame of fire in the middle of a bush [that was burning]. Moses/I looked at it, and he/I was surprised that the bush was burning, but it was not burning up.
3 Tad Mozus sacīja: es jel noiešu un apraudzīšu šo lielo parādīšanu, kādēļ tas ērkšķu krūms nesadeg.
Moses/I thought, “I will go closer and try to see this strange sight! Why is the bush not burning up?”
4 Un Tas Kungs redzēja, ka tas gāja lūkot, un Dievs sauca uz to no tā ērkšķu krūma un sacīja: Mozu! Mozu! Un tas sacīja: redzi, še es esmu.
When Yahweh saw that he/I had come closer, he called to Moses/me from the middle of the bush, saying, “Moses! Moses!” He/I replied, “[Yes], here I am.”
5 Un Viņš sacīja: nenāc klāt, novelc savas kurpes no kājām, jo tā vieta, kur tu stāvi, ir svēta zeme.
Yahweh said, “Do not come closer! [Because I am God], the ground on which you are standing is holy/taboo. So take off your sandals [to show respect to me].”
6 Un Viņš sacīja: Es esmu tava tēva Dievs, Ābrahāma Dievs, Īzaka Dievs un Jēkaba Dievs. Un Mozus aizklāja savu vaigu, jo tas bijās Dievu uzlūkot.
Then he said, “I am God, whom your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob [worshiped].” So Moses/I covered his/my face, because he/I was afraid [that God would kill him/me] if he/I looked at him.
7 Un Tas Kungs sacīja: Es tiešām esmu redzējis Savu ļaužu bēdas, kas ir Ēģiptes zemē un esmu dzirdējis viņu brēkšanu par saviem dzinējiem, jo viņu sāpes Es esmu ņēmis vērā.
Then Yahweh said, “I have seen how cruelly [they are treating] my people in Egypt. I have heard them (wailing/crying out) [for help] because of what the slave-drivers [are forcing them to do]. I know how my people are suffering.
8 Tādēļ Es esmu nolaidies, tos izpestīt no ēģiptiešu rokas un tos izvest no šās zemes uz labu un plašu zemi, uz zemi, kur piens un medus tek, uz Kanaāniešu, Hetiešu, Amoriešu, Fereziešu, Hiviešu un Jebusiešu vietu.
So I have come down [from heaven] to rescue them from the Egyptians [SYN]. I have come to bring them up from that land [to the highlands in Canaan]. I will bring them to a land that is good/fertile and that has plenty of space. It will be very good for raising livestock and growing crops [MTY]. It is the land where the descendants of Canaan, Heth, Amor, Periz, Hiv, and Jebus [live].
9 Un nu redzi, Israēla bērnu brēkšana ir nākusi Manā priekšā, un Es arī esmu redzējis to spaidīšanu, ar ko ēģiptieši tos spaida.
Truly I have now heard my Israeli people crying [PRS]. I have seen how the Egyptians oppress them.
10 Tad nu ej, Es tevi sūtīšu pie Faraona, un izvedi Manus ļaudis, Israēla bērnus, no Ēģiptes zemes.
So you go [back] to Egypt. I am sending you to the king, in order that [he may permit] you to bring my people, the Israeli people, out of Egypt.”
11 Tad Mozus sacīja uz Dievu: kas es esmu, ka man būs iet pie Faraona un izvest Israēla bērnus no Ēģiptes?
But Moses/I replied, “I am not a well-known person [RHQ]! (I cannot go to the king and [ask him to permit me] to bring the Israeli people out of Egypt!/How can I go to the king and [ask him to allow me to] bring the Israeli people out of Egypt?)” [RHQ]
12 Un Viņš sacīja: Es būšu ar tevi: un šī būs tev tā zīme, ka Es tevi esmu sūtījis: kad tu tos ļaudis no Ēģiptes zemes būsi izvedis, tad jūs Dievam kalposiet uz šī kalna.
God replied, “I will be with you. And when you bring [my] people out of Egypt, all of you will worship me [right] here on this mountain. That will prove that I am the one who sent you [to them].”
13 Un Mozus sacīja uz Dievu: redzi, kad es nākšu pie Israēla bērniem un uz tiem sacīšu: jūsu tēvu Dievs mani pie jums ir sūtījis, un tie uz mani saka, kāds ir Viņa vārds? Ko man tiem būs sacīt?
Moses/I said to God, “If I go to the Israeli people and say to them, ‘God, the one your ancestors [worshiped], has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’, what shall I say to them?”
14 Tad Dievs sacīja uz Mozu: Es Esmu, Kas Es Esmu. Un Viņš sacīja: tā tev būs sacīt Israēla bērniem: Es Esmu, Tas mani pie jums ir sūtījis.
God replied, “I AM who I AM.” And he said, “Tell the Israeli people that the one who is [named] ‘I AM’ has sent me to you.”
15 Un Dievs vēl sacīja Mozum: tā tev būs sacīt Israēla bērniem: Tas Kungs, jūsu tēvu Dievs, Ābrahāma Dievs, Īzaka Dievs un Jēkaba Dievs, mani pie jums ir sūtījis; šis ir Mans vārds mūžīgi, un šī ir Mana piemiņa uz bērnu bērniem.
God also said to Moses/me, “Say this to the Israeli people: ‘Yahweh God, the one your ancestors [worshiped], the one that Abraham and Isaac and Jacob [worshiped], has sent me to you.’ This name, [Yahweh], will be my name forever. That is the name that [people in] all future generations [must use when they talk about/to] me.
16 Ej un sapulcini Israēla vecajus un saki tiem: Tas Kungs, jūsu tēvu Dievs, man ir parādījies, Ābrahāma, Īzaka un Jēkaba Dievs, un sacījis: Es esmu nācis jūs raudzīt un to, kas jums darīts Ēģiptes zemē.
Go [to Egypt] and gather together the elders/leaders of the Israeli people, and say to them, ‘Yahweh God, the one your ancestors [worshiped], the one Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob [worshiped], appeared to me. He said to him/me, “I have been watching closely what the Egyptian people have done to you.
17 Un Es esmu sacījis: Es jūs izvedīšu no ēģiptiešu spaidīšanas uz Kanaāniešu, Hetiešu, Amoriešu, Fereziešu, Hiviešu un Jebusiešu zemi, uz zemi, kur piens un medus tek.
I promise that I will rescue you from being oppressed in Egypt, and [I will take you] to the land where the descendants of Canaan, Heth, Amor, Periz, Hiv, and Jebus [live]. It is a land good for raising livestock and growing crops [MTY].”’
18 Un kad tie klausīs tavai balsij, tad tev ar Israēla vecajiem būs iet pie Ēģiptes ķēniņa un uz to sacīt: Tas Kungs, tas Ebreju Dievs, mūs ir sastapis. Un nu lai ejam treju dienu gājumu tuksnesī, upurēt Tam Kungam, savam Dievam.
My people will do what you say. Then you and their leaders must go to the king of Egypt, and you must say to him, ‘Yahweh, who is God, the one we Hebrews [worship], has revealed himself to us. So now we ask you to allow us to travel for three days to [a place in] the desert, in order that there we may offer sacrifices to Yahweh, our God.’
19 Bet Es zinu, ka Ēģiptes ķēniņš jums neļaus iet, pat ne caur stipru roku.
But I know that the king of Egypt will allow you to go only if he realizes I am [more] powerful [MTY] [than he is].
20 Tad Es izstiepšu Savu roku un sitīšu Ēģiptes zemi ar visiem Saviem brīnumiem, ko Es viņas vidū darīšu; tad viņš jūs atlaidīs.
So I will use my power [MTY] to strike/punish [the people of] Egypt [MTY] by performing many miracles there. Then he will allow you to leave.
21 Un Es tiem ļaudīm došu žēlastību ēģiptiešu priekšā, un kad jūs iziesiet, tad jūs neiziesiet tukši.
[When that happens], I will cause the people of Egypt to respect you. [The result will be that] when you leave Egypt, (you will not go empty-handed/they will give you many [valuable] things to take with you).
22 Bet ikvienai sievai no savas kaimiņienes un no tās, kas dzīvo viņas namā, būs prasīt zelta un sudraba traukus un drēbes, tos jums būs likt uz saviem dēliem un savām meitām un ēģiptiešiem atņemt.
[At that time], each [Israeli] woman will ask her [Egyptian] neighbors and each [Egyptian] woman who is living in her (OR, her neighbor’s) house to [give her] some silver and gold jewelry and some [nice] clothes. [Each Egyptian woman will give them some], and you will put them on your sons and daughters [to take with you]. In that way you will (take away/confiscate) the wealth of the Egyptian people.”
