Pirmā Mozus 12
1 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Ābramu: izej no savas zemes un no savas dzimtenes un no sava tēva nama uz to zemi, ko Es tev rādīšu.
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.
2 Un Es tevi darīšu par lielu tautu un tevi svētīšu un darīšu tavu vārdu lielu, un tu būsi par svētību.
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.
3 Un Es svētīšu tos, kas tevi svētī, un nolādēšu tos, kas tevi lād, un iekš tevis visas ciltis virs zemes taps svētītas.
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).”
4 Un Ābrams aizgāja, kā Tas Kungs tam bija sacījis, un Lats gāja tam līdz. Un Ābrams bija septiņdesmit un pieci gadus vecs, kad viņš no Hāranas izgāja.
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.
5 Un Ābrams ņēma Sāraī, savu sievu, un Latu, savu brālēnu, un visu savu mantu, ko tie bija mantojuši, un tās dvēseles, ko tie Hāranā bija dabūjuši, un tie izgāja, ka ietu uz Kanaāna zemi, un tie nonāca Kanaāna zemē.
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.
6 Un Ābrams pārstaigāja to zemi līdz Šehemes vietai, līdz Mores ozolam; un Kanaānieši bija to laiku tai zemē.
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.
7 Tad Tas Kungs parādījās Ābramam un sacīja: tavam dzimumam Es došu šo zemi; un viņš tur uztaisīja altāri Tam Kungam, kas viņam bija parādījies.
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.
8 Un no turienes viņš cēlās uz tiem kalniem Bētelei pret rītiem, un uzcēla savu telti, ka Bētele bija pret vakariem un Aja pret austruma pusi, un uztaisīja tur Tam Kungam altāri un piesauca Tā Kunga vārdu.
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.
9 Un Ābrams cēlās un gāja iedams uz dienvidu(Negebu) pusi.
Then they left there and started traveling south to the Negev [Desert].
10 Un tanī zemē bija bads, un Ābrams nogāja uz Ēģipti, tur mist, jo tas bads bija grūts tanī zemē.
There was (a famine/very little food to eat) in Canaan, so they went south to live in Egypt for a while.
11 Un notikās, kad bija nonācis tuvu pie Ēģiptes, tad viņš sacīja uz Sāraī, savu sievu: redzi, es zinu, ka tu no vaiga esi skaista sieva.
Just as they were about to enter Egypt, Abram said to his wife Sarai, “Listen, I know that you are a very beautiful woman.
12 Un kad ēģiptieši tevi redzēs, tad tie sacīs: šī ir viņa sieva, - un mani nokaus, un tevi atstās dzīvu.
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.
13 Saki jel, ka tu mana māsa, lai man labi klājās tevis dēļ, un mana dvēsele tevis dēļ paliek dzīva.
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).”
14 Kad nu Ābrams nāca Ēģiptes zemē, tad ēģiptieši redzēja to sievu, ka tā bija ļoti skaista.
And as soon as they arrived in Egypt, the people in Egypt saw that his wife was indeed very beautiful.
15 Un Faraona lielkungi viņu redzēja, un to slavēja Faraona priekšā, un tā sieva tapa ņemta Faraona namā.
When the king’s officials saw her, they told the king how beautiful she was. And they took her to the king’s palace.
16 Un šis Ābramam darīja labu viņas dēļ; un tam bija avis un vērši un ēzeļi un kalpi un kalpones un ēzeļa mātes un kamieļi.
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.
17 Bet Tas Kungs mocīja Faraonu un viņa namu ar lielām mocībām, Sāraī, Ābrama sievas, dēļ.
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.
18 Tad Faraons aicināja Ābramu un sacīja: kam tu man to esi darījis? Kāpēc tu man neesi sacījis, ka šī tava sieva?
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?
19 Kāpēc tu sacīji, ka šī tava māsa? Jo es viņu sev ņēmu par sievu. Un nu redzi, še tava sieva, ņem viņu un ej.
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!”
20 Un Faraons pavēlēja par viņu saviem vīriem, un tie to izvadīja un viņa sievu un visu, kas tam bija.
Then the king told his officials/servants to take Abram and his wife and all his possessions out of Egypt.
