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 realized she was unable to give Jacob any children she was jealous of her sister. She complained to Jacob, “I'll die if you don't give me children!”
2 Tad Jēkabs apskaitās uz Rahēli un sacīja: vai es esmu Dieva vietā, kas tev miesas augļus liedzis?
Jacob became angry with Rachel and told her, “Am I God? Do you think I'm the one stopping you having children?”
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.
“Here's my personal maid Bilhah,” Rachel replied. “Sleep with her and she can have children for me so I'll have a family too.”
4 Un viņa tam deva Bilu, savu kalponi par sievu, un Jēkabs gāja pie tās.
She gave her personal maid Bilhah to him as a wife and Jacob slept with her.
5 Un Bilha tapa grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam dēlu.
Bilhah became pregnant and had a son for Jacob.
6 Tad Rahēle sacīja: Dievs man tiesu ir iznesis un arī manu balsi paklausījis un man dēlu devis. Tādēļ tā viņa vārdu nosauca Danu.
Rachel said, “God has judged in my favor! He listened to me and gave me a son.” So she named him Dan.
7 Un Bilha, Rahēles kalpone, tapa atkal grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam otru dēlu.
Rachel's personal maid Bilhah became pregnant again and had second son for Jacob.
8 Tad Rahēle sacīja: Dieva cīnīšanos esmu cīnījusies ar savu māsu un arī uzvarējusi, - un nosauca viņa vārdu Naftali.
Rachel said, “I've had a hard struggle with my sister, but I've 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.
Leah realized she wasn't having any more children, so she gave her personal maid Zilpah to Jacob as a wife.
10 Un Zilfa, Leas kalpone, dzemdēja Jēkabam dēlu.
Zilpah had a son for Jacob.
11 Tad Lea sacīja: laime, - un nosauca viņa vārdu Gadu.
Leah said, “I'm really fortunate!” So she named him Gad.
12 Un Zilfa, Leas kalpone, dzemdēja Jēkabam otru dēlu.
Leah's personal maid Zilpah became pregnant again and had a second son for Jacob.
13 Tad Lea sacīja: labi man, jo meitas mani teiks svētīgu, - un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Ašeru.
Leah said, “I'm so happy, and the other women will say I'm happy too!” 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.
At the time of the wheat harvest Reuben found some mandrake plants when he was out in the fields. He took them back to his mother Leah. Rachel asked Leah, “Please give me some of the mandrakes your son found.”
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.
“Aren't you satisfied with stealing my husband?” Leah replied. “Are you going to take my son's mandrakes too?” “Fine, he can sleep with you tonight if you give me some mandrakes in return,” Rachel responded.
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 fields that evening, Leah went out to meet him. “You have to sleep with me because I've paid for you with my son's mandrakes,” she told him. So he slept with her that night.
17 Un Dievs paklausīja Leū, un tā tapa grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam piekto dēlu.
God heard Leah's request, and she became pregnant and had a fifth son for Jacob.
18 Tad Lea sacīja: Dievs man to atmaksājis, ka es savam vīram esmu devusi savu kalponi, - un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Īsašaru.
Leah said, “The Lord has rewarded me for giving my personal maid to my husband.” So she named him Issachar.
19 Un Lea tapa atkal grūta un dzemdēja Jēkabam sesto dēlu.
Then Leah became pregnant again and had a sixth son for 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.
Leah said, “God has given me a good gift. Now my husband will honor me because I've given him six sons.” So she named him Zebulun.
21 Un pēc tam viņa dzemdēja meitu un nosauca viņas vārdu Dinu.
Later she had a daughter she named Dinah.
22 Un Dievs pieminēja Rahēli un paklausīja viņu un darīja viņu auglīgu.
Then God paid attention to Rachel and listened to her appeals, and helped her to have children.
23 Un viņa tapa grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un sacīja: Dievs manu apsmieklu no manis atņēmis.
She became pregnant and had a son. “God has removed my disgrace,” she said.
24 Un tā nosauca viņa vārdu Jāzepu, sacīdama: lai Tas Kungs mani apdāvina vēl ar citu dēlu.
She named him Joseph, saying, “May the Lord give me an additional son.”
25 Un notikās, kad Rahēle Jāzepu bija dzemdējusi, tad Jēkabs sacīja uz Lābanu: atlaid mani, ka es noeju uz savu vietu savā zemē,
Once Rachel had given birth to Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Let me leave so I can return to my home and my own country.
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 because I worked for you to have them. Let me go now because you know very well how much work I've done 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.
“Please be so kind as to stay,” Laban replied, “because I have discovered that the Lord has blessed me because of you.”
28 Un viņš sacīja: prasi savu algu no manis, tad es to došu.
Then Laban continued, “Tell me how much to pay you and I'll give it to you.”
29 Un tas uz viņu sacīja: tu zini, kā es tev esmu kalpojis, un kā tavi lopi pie manis ir izdevušies.
“You certainly know how much work I've done for you, and how well your flocks have done 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?
You hardly had anything before I arrived, but now you have so much! The Lord has blessed you through what I've done. When am I going to be able to provide for my own family?”
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.
“Well, what do you propose I give you?” Laban asked again. “You don't have to give me anything,” Jacob replied. “If you want to do something for me, then how about this: I'll go on looking after your flocks, making sure they're fed.
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 your flocks today and take all the sheep that are speckled or spotted, and all the dark ones, as well as all the speckled and spotted goats. They'll 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.
In the future you'll be able to prove that I've been honest. When you check my flock, any goats that don't have speckles or spots, or any sheep that aren't dark will be considered stolen from you.”
34 Tad Lābans sacīja: redzi, lai jel notiek pēc tava vārda.
“Very good,” Laban agreed. “We'll do as you say.”
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;
However, the same day Laban went and removed all the striped and spotted male goats, all the speckled and spotted female goats, and all the dark sheep. He had his sons look after them and sent them away—
36 Un lika starpu treju dienu gājumā starp sevi un Jēkabu. Un Jēkabs ganīja Lābana citas avis.
a three day journey between them and Jacob, while Jacob was looking after 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.
Then Jacob cut some sticks from poplar, almond, and plane trees that had white wood under the bark. He peeled off some of the bark, making the sticks look streaked with white.
38 Un tos kociņus, ko bija nomizojis, viņš ielika ūdens silēs un dzeramos traukos avīm priekšā, ka tās nākdamas dzert apietos.
He put the sticks he'd peeled in the water troughs where the flocks came to drink because that's where they mated.
39 Un tās avis apgājās pār tām rīkstēm, un vedās strīpainas, lāsainas un raibas.
The flocks mated in front of the sticks and gave birth to young that were streaked, speckled, and 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 separated all these ones out. Then he made his flock face towards those in Laban's flock that were streaked and dark. This is the way he kept his flocks apart from Laban's flock.
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.
When the strong females were ready to breed, Jacob put the sticks in the troughs where the flocks could see them when they mated.
42 Bet kad tās vēlās avis apgājās, tad Jēkabs tos kociņus nelika iekšā, tad tie atpīļi(vājie) kļuva Lābanam un tie agrējie(spēcīgie) Jēkabam.
He didn't do this for the weaker females. The weaker ones went to Laban, and the strong ones went to Jacob.
43 Un tas vīrs auga ļoti varens, un tam bija daudz avju, kalpoņu un kalpu, kamieļu un ēzeļu.
In this way Jacob became an extremely rich man with large flocks, and many male and female slaves, camels, and donkeys.
