Pirmā Mozus 30
1 Kad nu Rahēle redzēja, ka tā Jēkabam nedzemdēja, tad tā apskauda savu māsu un sacīja uz Jēkabu: dabū man bērnus, bet ja ne, tad man jāmirst.
When Rachel saw that she was not bearing any children for Jacob, she envied her sister. “Give me children, or I will die!” she said to Jacob.
2 Tad Jēkabs apskaitās uz Rahēli un sacīja: vai es esmu Dieva vietā, kas tev miesas augļus liedzis?
Jacob became angry with Rachel and said, “Am I in the place of God, who has withheld children from you?”
3 Un tā sacīja: redzi, še ir mana kalpone Bilha, ej pie tās, ka tā uz manu klēpi dzemdē, un es arīdzan caur viņu augļojos.
Then she said, “Here is my maidservant Bilhah. Sleep with her, that she may bear children for me, so that through her I too can build a family.”
4 Un viņa tam deva Bilu, savu kalponi par sievu, un Jēkabs gāja pie tās.
So Rachel gave Jacob her servant Bilhah as a wife, and he slept with her,
5 Un Bilha tapa grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam dēlu.
and Bilhah conceived and bore him a son.
6 Tad Rahēle sacīja: Dievs man tiesu ir iznesis un arī manu balsi paklausījis un man dēlu devis. Tādēļ tā viņa vārdu nosauca Danu.
Then Rachel said, “God has vindicated me; He has heard my plea and given me a son.” So she named him Dan.
7 Un Bilha, Rahēles kalpone, tapa atkal grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam otru dēlu.
And Rachel’s servant Bilhah conceived again and bore Jacob a second son.
8 Tad Rahēle sacīja: Dieva cīnīšanos esmu cīnījusies ar savu māsu un arī uzvarējusi, - un nosauca viņa vārdu Naftali.
Then Rachel said, “In my great struggles, I have wrestled with my sister and won.” So she named him Naphtali.
9 Kad nu Lea redzēja, ka bija mitējusies dzemdēt, tad tā arīdzan ņēma savu kalponi Zilfu un to Jēkabam deva par sievu.
When Leah saw that she had stopped having children, she gave her servant Zilpah to Jacob as a wife.
10 Un Zilfa, Leas kalpone, dzemdēja Jēkabam dēlu.
And Leah’s servant Zilpah bore Jacob a son.
11 Tad Lea sacīja: laime, - un nosauca viņa vārdu Gadu.
Then Leah said, “How fortunate!” So she named him Gad.
12 Un Zilfa, Leas kalpone, dzemdēja Jēkabam otru dēlu.
When Leah’s servant Zilpah bore Jacob a second son,
13 Tad Lea sacīja: labi man, jo meitas mani teiks svētīgu, - un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Ašeru.
Leah said, “How happy I am! For the women call me happy.” So she named him Asher.
14 Un Rūbens gāja kviešu pļaujamā laikā un atrada dudaīm (mīlestības ābols) laukā un atnesa tos Leai, savai mātei, un Rahēle sacīja uz Leū: dod man jel no tava dēla dudaīm.
Now during the wheat harvest, Reuben went out and found some mandrakes in the field. When he brought them to his mother, Rachel begged Leah, “Please give me some of your son’s mandrakes.”
15 Un viņa uz to sacīja: vai tā ir maza lieta, ka tu manu vīru esi atņēmusi, un tu arī mana dēla dudaīm gribi ņemt? Tad Rahēle sacīja: tam būs šo nakti pie tevis gulēt par tava dēla dudaīm.
But Leah replied, “Is it not enough that you have taken away my husband? Now you want to take my son’s mandrakes as well?” “Very well,” said Rachel, “he may sleep with you tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.”
16 Kad nu Jēkabs vakarā no lauka nāca, tad Lea tam izgāja pretī un sacīja: tev būs nākt pie manis, jo es tevi ar maksu esmu saderējusi par sava dēla dudaīm. Un viņš pie tās gulēja tanī naktī.
When Jacob came in from the field that evening, Leah went out to meet him and said, “You must come with me, for I have hired you with my son’s mandrakes.” So he slept with her that night.
17 Un Dievs paklausīja Leū, un tā tapa grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam piekto dēlu.
And God listened to Leah, and she conceived and bore a fifth son to Jacob.
18 Tad Lea sacīja: Dievs man to atmaksājis, ka es savam vīram esmu devusi savu kalponi, - un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Īsašaru.
Then Leah said, “God has rewarded me for giving my maidservant to my husband.” So she named him Issachar.
19 Un Lea tapa atkal grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam sesto dēlu.
Again Leah conceived and bore a sixth son to Jacob.
20 Tad Lea sacīja: Dievs mani apdāvinājis ar labu dāvanu, nu mans vīrs pie manis dzīvos, tāpēc, ka es viņam esmu dzemdējusi sešus dēlus - un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Zebulonu.
“God has given me a good gift,” she said. “This time my husband will honor me, because I have borne him six sons.” And she named him Zebulun.
21 Un pēc tam viņa dzemdēja meitu un nosauca viņas vārdu Dinu.
After that, Leah gave birth to a daughter and named her Dinah.
22 Un Dievs pieminēja Rahēli un paklausīja viņu un darīja viņu auglīgu.
Then God remembered Rachel. He listened to her and opened her womb,
23 Un viņa tapa grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un sacīja: Dievs manu apsmieklu no manis atņēmis.
and she conceived and gave birth to a son. “God has taken away my shame,” she said.
24 Un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Jāzepu, sacīdama: lai Tas Kungs mani apdāvina vēl ar citu dēlu.
She named him Joseph, and said, “May the LORD add to me another son.”
25 Un notikās, kad Rahēle Jāzepu bija dzemdējusi, tad Jēkabs sacīja uz Lābanu: atlaid mani, ka es noeju uz savu vietu savā zemē,
Now after Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Send me on my way so I can return to my homeland.
26 Dod man manas sievas un manus bērnus, kuru dēļ tev esmu kalpojis, tad es iešu, jo tu gan zini to kalpošanu, ko tev esmu kalpojis.
Give me my wives and children for whom I have served you, that I may go on my way. You know how hard I have worked for you.”
27 Un Lābans uz to sacīja: kaut es būtu atradis žēlastību tavās acīs! - es esmu nopratis, ka Tas Kungs mani tevis dēļ ir svētījis.
But Laban replied, “If I have found favor in your eyes, please stay. I have learned by divination that the LORD has blessed me because of you.”
28 Un viņš sacīja: prasi savu algu no manis, tad es to došu.
And he added, “Name your wages, and I will pay them.”
29 Un tas uz viņu sacīja: tu zini, kā es tev esmu kalpojis, un kā tavi lopi pie manis ir izdevušies.
Then Jacob answered, “You know how I have served you and how your livestock have thrived under my care.
30 Jo priekš manas atnākšanas tev bija mazums, un tas ir lielā pulkā vairojies, un Tas Kungs tevi svētījis caur maniem soļiem; un nu, kad tad man būs apgādāt savu namu?
Indeed, you had very little before my arrival, but now your wealth has increased many times over. The LORD has blessed you wherever I set foot. But now, when may I also provide for my own household?”
31 Un viņš sacīja: ko lai tev dodu? Tad Jēkabs sacīja: tev man nekā nav jādod; ja tu man šo darīsi, tad es atkal ganīšu un sargāšu tavas avis.
“What can I give you?” Laban asked. “You do not need to give me anything,” Jacob replied. “If you do this one thing for me, I will keep on shepherding and keeping your flocks.
32 Es izstaigāšu šodien pa visu tavu ganāmo pulku un atšķiršu no turienes visus raibos un lāsainos un visus melnos starp jēriem un visus lāsainos un raibos starp kazām, - un tās būs man par algu.
Let me go through all your flocks today and remove from them every speckled or spotted sheep, every dark-colored lamb, and every spotted or speckled goat. These will be my wages.
33 Tad mana taisnība liecinās par mani nākamās dienās, kad tu nāksi, manu algu raudzīt: viss, kas nav raibs un lāsains starp kazām un melns starp jēriem, to es būšu zadzis.
So my honesty will testify for me when you come to check on my wages in the future. If I have any goats that are not speckled or spotted, or any lambs that are not dark-colored, they will be considered stolen.”
34 Tad Lābans sacīja: redzi, lai jel notiek pēc tava vārda.
“Agreed,” said Laban. “Let it be as you have said.”
35 Un viņš atšķīra tanī dienā tos lāsainos un raibos āžus, un visas lāsainās un raibās kazas, visu, pie kā bija baltums, un visu, kas bija melns starp jēriem, un viņš tos iedeva savu bērnu rokā;
That very day Laban removed all the streaked or spotted male goats and every speckled or spotted female goat—every one that had any white on it—and every dark-colored lamb, and he placed them under the care of his sons.
36 Un lika starpu treju dienu gājumā starp sevi un Jēkabu. Un Jēkabs ganīja Lābana citas avis.
Then he put a three-day journey between himself and Jacob, while Jacob was shepherding the rest of Laban’s flocks.
37 Tad Jēkabs ņēma rīkstes no zaļām apsēm un mandeļu kokiem un kļavām, un nodrāza tām baltas strīpas, atklādams to baltumu pie tām rīkstēm.
Jacob, however, took fresh branches of poplar, almond, and plane trees, and peeled the bark, exposing the white inner wood of the branches.
38 Un tos kociņus, ko bija nomizojis, viņš ielika ūdens silēs un dzeramos traukos avīm priekšā, ka tās nākdamas dzert apietos.
Then he set the peeled branches in the watering troughs in front of the flocks coming in to drink. So when the flocks were in heat and came to drink,
39 Un tās avis apgājās pār tām rīkstēm, un vedās strīpainas, lāsainas un raibas.
they mated in front of the branches. And they bore young that were streaked or speckled or spotted.
40 Un Jēkabs šķīra tos jērus, un lika tām mātēm skatīties uz tām strīpainām un melnām starp Lābana avīm, un lika savus ganāmos pulkus atsevišķi, un nelika tos pie Lābana avīm.
Jacob set apart the young, but made the rest face the streaked dark-colored sheep in Laban’s flocks. Then he set his own stock apart and did not put them with Laban’s animals.
41 Un notikās allažiņ, kad tās agrās avis apgājās, tad Jēkabs to avju priekšā tos kociņus ielika ūdens silēs, ka tās pār tiem kokiem apietos.
Whenever the stronger females of the flock were in heat, Jacob would place the branches in the troughs, in full view of the animals, so that they would breed in front of the branches.
42 Bet kad tās vēlās avis apgājās, tad Jēkabs tos kociņus nelika iekšā, tad tie atpīļi(vājie) kļuva Lābanam un tie agrējie(spēcīgie) Jēkabam.
But if the animals were weak, he did not set out the branches. So the weaker animals went to Laban and the stronger ones to Jacob.
43 Un tas vīrs auga ļoti varens, un tam bija daudz avju, kalpoņu un kalpu, kamieļu un ēzeļu.
Thus Jacob became exceedingly prosperous. He owned large flocks, maidservants and menservants, and camels and donkeys.
