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.
Some time later, Abram had a vision in which Yahweh spoke to him and said, “Do not be afraid of (anything/your enemies). I will protect you [MTY], and I will give a great reward.”
2 Tad Ābrams sacīja: Kungs, Dievs, ko Tu man dosi? Es aizeju bez bērniem un mana nama mantinieks ir šis Eliēzers no Damaskus.
But Abram replied, “Yahweh God, how can you give me what I truly want, because I have no children, and the one who will be like a son and inherit all my possessions is my servant Eliezer from Damascus!”
3 Un Ābrams sacīja: redzi, man Tu neesi dzimumu devis, un redzi, manas saimes bērns būs mans mantinieks.
Abram added, “You have not given me any children, so think about this: A servant in my household will inherit all I own!”
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.
Yahweh replied, “No! He will not be the one who will inherit it. Instead, you yourself will be the father of the one who will inherit everything you own.”
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.
Then Yahweh took Abram outside [of his tent] and said, “Look up at the sky! Can you count the stars? No, you cannot count them because there are so many of them, and your descendants will be as numerous as the stars.”
6 Un Ābrams ticēja uz To Kungu, un Viņš tam to pielīdzināja par taisnību.
Abram believed that what Yahweh said would happen. And because of that, Yahweh considered that Abram was righteous.
7 Un Viņš tam sacīja: Es esmu Tas Kungs, kas tevi izvedis no Ur iekš Kaldejas, ka tev dotu šo zemi iemantot.
Yahweh also said to him, “I am Yahweh. I am the one who brought you from Ur in Chaldea land. I brought you here to give you this land to possess.”
8 Un tas sacīja: Kungs, Dievs, pie kam nopratīšu, ka es to iemantošu?
But Abram replied, “Yahweh God, how can I know for sure that this land will belong to me?”
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.
God said to him, “Bring a three-year-old heifer and a three-year-old goat to me, and a dove and a 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.
So Abram brought all of them and killed them and cut each of the animals in half. He arranged the halves of each one, side by side. But he did not cut the pigeon and dove in half.
11 Un vanagi krita uz tām, un Ābrams tos nodzina.
Birds that eat dead flesh came down to eat the carcasses, but Abram shooed them away.
12 Un kad saule nogāja, tad Ābramam ciets miegs uznāca, un redzi, izbailes un liela tumsība tam uzkrita.
As the sun was going down, Abram fell sound asleep, and suddenly everything around him became dark and frightening.
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.
Then God said to Abram, “I want you to know that your descendants will become foreigners living in a land that does not belong to them. They will become slaves of the owners of that land. The owners of the land will mistreat them for 400 years.
14 Bet to tautu, kam tie kalpos, Es arī sodīšu, un pēc tam tie izies ar lielu mantu.
But then I will punish the people of that country that made them become slaves, and then your descendants will leave that country, taking many possessions with them.
15 Un tu aiziesi pie saviem tēviem mierā un tapsi aprakts labā vecumā.
But as for you, you will die [EUP] peacefully when you are very old.
16 Un ceturtā mūža augums nāks atkal šai vietā, jo Amoriešu netaisnība līdz šim vēl nav pilna.
After your descendants have been slaves for 400 years, they will return here, and take control of this land and defeat the Amor people-group. Those people will, because those people have not yet sinned enough to deserve to be punished now.”
17 Un notikās, kad saule nogāja un tumsa metās, tad redzi, dūmains ceplis un uguns liesma, kas cauri šāvās tiem upura gabaliem.
When the sun had set and it had become dark, [unexpectedly] a blazing torch and a clay pot containing burning coals from which smoke was rising appeared and went between the halves of the animals.
18 Tanī dienā Tas Kungs cēla derību ar Ābramu, sacīdams: tavam dzimumam Es esmu devis šo zemi, no Ēģiptes upes līdz lielai Eifrat upei;
And on that day Yahweh made an agreement with Abram. Yahweh told him, “I will give to your descendants all the land between the river that is on the eastern border of Egypt to the south, and north to the huge Euphrates River.
19 Keniešus un Ķenaziešus un Kadmoniešus,
That is the land where the Ken, the Keniz, the Kidmon,
20 Hetiešus un Fereziešus un Refaīmiešus,
the Heth, the Periz, the Repha,
21 Un Amoriešus un Kanaāniešus, Ģirgoziešus un Jebusiešus.
the Amor, the Canaan, the Girgash, and the Tebus people-groups live.”
