Pirmā Mozus 37
1 Un Jēkabs dzīvoja tai zemē, kur viņa tēvs kā svešinieks bija mitis, Kanaāna zemē.
And Jacob dwelt in the land of his father's sojournings, in the land of Canaan.
2 Šie ir Jēkaba radu raksti: Jāzeps, septiņpadsmit gadus vecs būdams, ganīja avis ar saviem brāļiem, un tas zēns bija pie Bilhas un Zilfas, sava tēva sievu, dēliem, un Jāzeps nesa viņu ļauno slavu tēvam priekšā.
These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren, being still a lad even with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives; and Joseph brought evil report of them unto their father.
3 Un Israēls mīlēja Jāzepu pār visiem saviem bērniem, jo tas viņam bija dzimis vecumā, un viņš tam taisīja raibus svārkus.
Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age; and he made him a coat of many colours.
4 Un viņa brāļi redzēja, ka tēvs to mīlēja pār visiem viņa brāļiem, un tie to ienīdēja un nevarēja laipni ar to runāt.
And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him.
5 Un Jāzeps sapņoja sapni un to stāstīja saviem brāļiem, - tad šie to vēl vairāk ienīdēja.
And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it to his brethren; and they hated him yet the more.
6 Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: klausāties jel šo sapni, ko esmu redzējis.
And he said unto them: 'Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:
7 Un redzi, mēs sējām kūlīšus laukā, un redzi, mans kūlītis cēlās un stāvēja, un redzi, jūsu kūlīši apstājušies klanījās pret manu kūlīti.
for, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves came round about, and bowed down to my sheaf.'
8 Tad viņa brāļi uz to sacīja: vai tu mums paliksi par ķēniņu? Vai tu valdīdams pār mums valdīsi? Un tie vēl vairāk to ienīdēja viņa sapņu un viņa stāstu dēļ.
And his brethren said to him: 'Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us?' And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.
9 Un tas sapņoja vēl citu sapni un to teica saviem brāļiem un sacīja: redzi, es vēl citu sapni esmu redzējis, un redzi, saule un mēnesis un vienpadsmit zvaigznes klanījās priekš manis.
And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brethren, and said: 'Behold, I have dreamed yet a dream: and, behold, the sun and the moon and eleven stars bowed down to me.'
10 Un kad viņš to stāstīja savam tēvam un saviem brāļiem, tad viņa tēvs to aprāja un uz to sacīja: kas tas par sapni, ko tu esi sapņojis? Vai es un tava māte un tavi brāļi patiesi nāksim pie zemes klanīties tavā priekšā?
And he told it to his father, and to his brethren; and his father rebuked him, and said unto him: 'What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down to thee to the earth?'
11 Un viņa brāļi to skauda, bet viņa tēvs šo vārdu paturēja.
And his brethren envied him; but his father kept the saying in mind.
12 Un viņa brāļi gāja ganīt sava tēva lopus Šehemē. Tad Israēls sacīja uz Jāzepu:
And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in Shechem.
13 Vai tavi brāļi negana Šehemē? Nāc, es tevi sūtīšu pie tiem; un tas sacīja: redzi, še es esmu. Un viņš uz to sacīja:
And Israel said unto Joseph: 'Do not thy brethren feed the flock in Shechem? come, and I will send thee unto them.' And he said to him: 'Here am I.'
14 Ej jel, lūko, kā taviem brāļiem klājās un kā lopiņiem klājās, un nes man vēsti atpakaļ. Un viņš to izsūtīja no Hebrones ielejas, un tas nāca uz Šehemi.
And he said to him: 'Go now, see whether it is well with thy brethren, and well with the flock; and bring me back word.' So he sent him out of the vale of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.
15 Un viens vīrs viņu atrada un redzi, viņš maldījās pa lauku; tad tas vīrs to vaicāja sacīdams, ko tu meklē?
And a certain man found him, and, behold, he was wandering in the field. And the man asked him, saying: 'What seekest thou?'
16 Un tas sacīja: es meklēju savus brāļus, saki man lūdzams, kur tie gana?
And he said: 'I seek my brethren. Tell me, I pray thee, where they are feeding the flock.'
17 Tad tas vīrs sacīja: tie no šejienes aizgājuši, jo es dzirdēju tos sakām: iesim uz Dotanu; un Jāzeps gāja saviem brāļiem pakaļ un atrada tos Dotanā.
And the man said: 'They are departed hence; for I heard them say: Let us go to Dothan.' And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan.
18 Un tie to ieraudzīja no tālienes, un pirms tas tuvu pie viņiem atnāca, tie sarunājās viņu nokaut,
And they saw him afar off, and before he came near unto them, they conspired against him to slay him.
19 Un sacīja viens uz otru: redzi, še nāk tas sapņotājs.
And they said one to another: 'Behold, this dreamer cometh.
20 Un nu nāciet, nokausim to un iemetīsim to kādā bedrē un sacīsim: negants zvērs to aprijis; tad redzēsim, kas būs no viņa sapņiem.
Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into one of the pits, and we will say: An evil beast hath devoured him; and we shall see what will become of his dreams.'
21 Un Rūbens to dzirdēja un to izpestīja no viņu rokām un sacīja: nenokausim viņu.
And Reuben heard it, and delivered him out of their hand; and said: 'Let us not take his life.'
22 Un Rūbens uz tiem sacīja: neizlejat asinis, metiet viņu tai bedrē, kas te tuksnesī, un nepieliekat rokas pie viņa, - lai viņš to izpestītu no viņu rokām un pārvestu savam tēvam.
And Reuben said unto them: 'Shed no blood; cast him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but lay no hand upon him' — that he might deliver him out of their hand, to restore him to his father.
23 Un notikās, kad Jāzeps atnāca pie saviem brāļiem, tad tie Jāzepam novilka svārkus, tos raibos, kas tam bija mugurā.
And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they stripped Joseph of his coat, the coat of many colours that was on him;
24 Un tie to ņēma un iemeta bedrē, bet tā bedre bija tukša, un tur ūdens nebija iekšā.
and they took him, and cast him into the pit — and the pit was empty, there was no water in it.
25 Pēc tie apsēdās maizi ēst un pacēla savas acis un skatījās, un redzi, Ismaēliešu pulks nāca no Gileādas, un viņu kamieļi nesa dārgas zāles, balzamu un mirres; tie gāja, to nonest uz Ēģipti.
And they sat down to eat bread; and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, a caravan of Ishmaelites came from Gilead, with their camels bearing spicery and balm and ladanum, going to carry it down to Egypt.
26 Tad Jūda sacīja uz saviem brāļiem: ko tas mums līdz, ja savu brāli nokaujam un viņa asinis slēpjam?
And Judah said unto his brethren: 'What profit is it if we slay our brother and conceal his blood?
27 Nāciet, pārdosim viņu tiem Ismaēliešiem un nepieliksim savas rokas pie viņa, jo viņš ir mūsu brālis, mūsu miesa. Un viņa brāļi tam klausīja.
Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites, and let not our hand be upon him; for he is our brother, our flesh.' And his brethren hearkened unto him.
28 Tiem Midianiešu vīriem, tiem tirgotājiem, garām ejot, tie izvilka un izcēla Jāzepu no bedres un pārdeva Jāzepu tiem Ismaēliešiem par divdesmit sudraba gabaliem, un tie aizveda Jāzepu uz Ēģiptes zemi.
And there passed by Midianites, merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty shekels of silver. And they brought Joseph into Egypt.
29 Un Rūbens gāja atpakaļ pie tās bedres un redzi, Jāzeps nebija bedrē; tad tas saplēsa savas drēbes
And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph was not in the pit; and he rent his clothes.
30 Un griezās atpakaļ pie saviem brāļiem un sacīja: tā puisēna tur nav un es, - kur man būs palikt?
And he returned unto his brethren, and said: 'The child is not; and as for me, whither shall I go?'
31 Un tie ņēma Jāzepa svārkus un nokāva āzi un iemērca tos svārkus asinīs.
And they took Joseph's coat, and killed a he-goat, and dipped the coat in the blood;
32 Un nosūtīja tos raibos svārkus un lika tos nonest savam tēvam un sacīja: šos esam atraduši; apraugi jel, vai tie ir tava dēla svārki, vai nē?
and they sent the coat of many colours, and they brought it to their father; and said: 'This have we found. Know now whether it is thy son's coat or not.'
33 Un tas tos pazina un sacīja: tie ir mana dēla svārki; nikns zvērs viņu ir aprijis, plosīt tas Jāzepu saplosījis.
And he knew it, and said: 'It is my son's coat; an evil beast hath devoured him; Joseph is without doubt torn in pieces.'
34 Un Jēkabs pārplēsa savas drēbes un apvilka maisu ap saviem gurniem un bēdājās pēc sava dēla ilgu laiku.
And Jacob rent his garments, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
35 Tad visi viņa dēli un visas viņa meitas cēlās, viņu iepriecināt, bet viņš negribējās iepriecinājams būt un sacīja: ar bēdām es noiešu kapā pie sava dēla. Un viņa tēvs to apraudāja. (Sheol h7585)
And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said: 'Nay, but I will go down to the grave to my son mourning.' And his father wept for him. (Sheol h7585)
36 Un tie Midianieši to pārdeva Ēģiptes zemē Potifaram, ķēniņa Faraona kambarjunkuram un sargu virsniekam.
And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, the captain of the guard.
