Pirmā Mozus 15
1 Pēc šīm lietām Tā Kunga vārds notika uz Ābramu iekš parādīšanās sacīdams: Nebīsties, Ābram; Es tev esmu par priekšturamām bruņām, un tava alga ir ļoti liela.
After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not Abram; I am thy shield, thy reward shall be exceedingly great.
2 Tad Ābrams sacīja: Kungs, Dievs, ko Tu man dosi? Es aizeju bez bērniem un mana nama mantinieks ir šis Eliēzers no Damaskus.
And Abram said, Lord God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?
3 Un Ābrams sacīja: redzi, man Tu neesi dzimumu devis, un redzi, manas saimes bērns būs mans mantinieks.
And Abram said, Behold to me thou hast given no seed; and lo, one born in my house will be my heir.
4 Un redzi, Tā Kunga vārds notika uz viņu sacīdams: šis nebūs tavs mantinieks, bet kas no tavām miesām nāks, tas būs tavs mantas ņēmējs.
And behold, the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, This one shall not be thy heir; but he that shall come forth out of thy own bowels shall be thy heir.
5 Un Viņš to izveda ārā un sacīja: skaties uz debesīm un skaiti zvaigznes; vai tu tās vari izskaitīt? Un Viņš tam sacīja: tāpat būs tavs dzimums.
And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward the heaven, and count the stars, if thou be able to count them; and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
6 Un Ābrams ticēja uz To Kungu, un Viņš tam to pielīdzināja par taisnību.
And he believed in the Lord; and he accounted it to him for righteousness.
7 Un Viņš tam sacīja: Es esmu Tas Kungs, kas tevi izvedis no Ur iekš Kaldejas, ka tev dotu šo zemi iemantot.
And he said unto him, I am the Lord that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give unto thee this land, to inherit it.
8 Un tas sacīja: Kungs, Dievs, pie kam nopratīšu, ka es to iemantošu?
And he said, Lord God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
9 Un Viņš tam sacīja: dabū Man treju gadu gotiņu un treju gadu kazu un treju gadu aunu un vienu ūbeli un vienu jaunu balodi.
And he said unto him, Take me a heifer of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtle-dove, and a young pigeon.
10 Un tas Viņam dabūja visus tos un dalīja tos vidū uz pusēm un lika ikkatra daļu vienu pret otru, bet tos putnus viņš nedalīja.
And he took unto him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each piece one opposite the other; but the birds he did not divide.
11 Un vanagi krita uz tām, un Ābrams tos nodzina.
And the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses; but Abram drove them away.
12 Un kad saule nogāja, tad Ābramam ciets miegs uznāca, un redzi, izbailes un liela tumsība tam uzkrita.
And when the sun was about going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and lo, a horror, dark and great, fell upon him.
13 Un Viņš sacīja uz Ābramu: zini zinādams, ka tavs dzimums piemitīs kādā zemē, kas tam nepieder, un tur viņus kalpinās un tiem grūti darīs četrsimt gadus.
And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land which is not theirs, and they will make them serve, and they will afflict them four hundred years.
14 Bet to tautu, kam tie kalpos, Es arī sodīšu, un pēc tam tie izies ar lielu mantu.
And also that nation whom they shall serve, will I judge; and afterward shall they go out with great substance.
15 Un tu aiziesi pie saviem tēviem mierā un tapsi aprakts labā vecumā.
But thou shalt come to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.
16 Un ceturtā mūža augums nāks atkal šai vietā, jo Amoriešu netaisnība līdz šim vēl nav pilna.
Yet the fourth generation shall come hither again; for the iniquity of the Emorites will not be full until then.
17 Un notikās, kad saule nogāja un tumsa metās, tad redzi, dūmains ceplis un uguns liesma, kas cauri šāvās tiem upura gabaliem.
And it came to pass, when the sun had gone down, and it was dark, that behold a smoking furnace, and a burning flame, which passed between those pieces.
18 Tanī dienā Tas Kungs cēla derību ar Ābramu, sacīdams: tavam dzimumam Es esmu devis šo zemi, no Ēģiptes upes līdz lielai Eifrat upei;
On the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates;
19 Keniešus un Ķenaziešus un Kadmoniešus,
The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
20 Hetiešus un Fereziešus un Refaīmiešus,
And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaim,
21 Un Amoriešus un Kanaāniešus, Ģirgoziešus un Jebusiešus.
And the Emorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.
