Pirmā Mozus 38

1 Un notikās tanī laikā, ka Jūda no saviem brāļiem nogāja un apmetās pie kāda Adulamnieku vīra, Hīras vārdā.

And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.

2 Un Jūda redzēja tur kāda Kanaāniešu vīra meitu, un viņa vārds bija Šua, un viņš to ņēma un gāja pie tās.

And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua; and he took her, and went in unto her.

3 Un tā tapa grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Ģeru.

And she conceived, and bore a son; and he called his name Er.

4 Un tā tapa atkal grūta un dzemdēja dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Onanu.

And she conceived again, and bore a son; and she called his name Onan.

5 Un tā dzemdēja vēl vienu dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Šelu, un viņš bija Ķezibā, kad tā to dzemdēja.

And she yet again bore a son, and called his name Shelah; and he was at Chezib, when she bore him.

6 Un Jūda ņēma sievu priekš Ģera, sava pirmdzimtā, un viņas vārds bija Tamāre.

And Judah took a wife for Er his first-born, and her name was Tamar.

7 Bet Ģers, Jūdas pirmdzimtais, bija ļauns Tā Kunga priekšā, tāpēc Tas Kungs to nokāva.

And Er, Judah's first-born, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD slew him.

8 Tad Jūda sacīja Onanam: ej pie sava brāļa sievas un ņem to sava brāļa vietā un cel dzimumu savam brālim.

And Judah said unto Onan: 'Go in unto thy brother's wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother unto her, and raise up seed to thy brother.'

9 Bet Onans zinādams, ka tas dzimums viņam nepiederēs, pie sava brāļa sievas iedams, tam lika izgaist zemē, lai savam brālim nedotu dzimuma.

And Onan knew that the seed would not be his; and it came to pass when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest he should give seed to his brother.

10 Un Tam Kungam nepatika, ko viņš darīja, un viņš to arīdzan nokāva.

And the thing which he did was evil in the sight of the LORD; and He slew him also.

11 Tad Jūda sacīja uz savu vedeklu Tamāri: paliec atraitne sava tēva namā, tiekams Šelus, mans dēls, pieaug; jo viņš domāja: vai viņam arī nebūs jāmirst, kā viņa brāļiem. Un Tamāre nogāja un dzīvoja sava tēva namā.

Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter-in-law: 'Remain a widow in thy father's house, till Shelah my son be grown up'; for he said: 'Lest he also die, like his brethren.' And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.

12 Kad nu labs laiks bija pagājis, tad Šuas meita, Jūda sieva, nomira; pēc tam Jūda iepriecinājās un gāja pie saviem avju cirpējiem uz Timnu, viņš un Hīra, viņa draugs, tas Adulamnieks.

And in process of time Shua's daughter, the wife of Judah, died; and Judah was comforted, and went up unto his sheep-shearers to Timnah, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.

13 Un Tamārei tapa vēstīts un sacīts: redzi, tavs tēvocis iet uz Timnu, savas avis cirpt.

And it was told Tamar, saying: 'Behold, thy father-in-law goeth up to Timnah to shear his sheep.'

14 Tad viņa novilka savas atraitņu drēbes un apsedzās ar vaiga apsegu un aptinās un apsēdās priekš Enaima vārtiem, kas ir uz Timnas ceļa; jo tā bija redzējusi, ka Šelus bija pieaudzis un ka viņa tam nebija dota par sievu.

And she put off from her the garments of her widowhood, and covered herself with her veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the entrance of Enaim, which is by the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she was not given unto him to wife.

15 Un Jūda to redzēja un šķita, to esam mauku, tāpēc ka tā savu vaigu bija apsegusi.

When Judah saw her, he thought her to be a harlot; for she had covered her face.

16 Un noklīda pie tās ceļmalā un sacīja: nāc jel, laid man pie tevis ieiet; jo viņš nezināja, to savu vedeklu esam. Un tā sacīja: ko tu man dosi, ja tu pie manis ieiesi?

And he turned unto her by the way, and said: 'Come, I pray thee, let me come in unto thee'; for he knew not that she was his daughter-in-law. And she said: 'What wilt thou give me, that thou mayest come in unto me?'

17 Un tas sacīja: es tev sūtīšu vienu āzi no ganāmpulka. Un tā sacīja: tad dod man ķīlas, tiekams tu to sūti.

And he said: 'I will send thee a kid of the goats from the flock.' And she said: 'Wilt thou give me a pledge, till thou send it?'

18 Tad tas sacīja: kas tās tādas ķīlas, ko man tev būs dot? Un tā atbildēja: tavs aizspiežamais gredzens un tava virkne un tava niedre, kas tavā rokā. Un tas viņai to deva un iegāja pie tās; un tā tapa grūta no viņa.

And he said: 'What pledge shall I give thee?' And she said: 'Thy signet and thy cord, and thy staff that is in thy hand.' And he gave them to her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him.

19 Un tā cēlās un aizgāja un nolika to apsegu un apvilka savas atraitņu drēbes.

And she arose, and went away, and put off her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.

20 Un Jūda sūtīja to āzi caur savu draugu, to Adulamnieku, atņemt tās ķīlas no tās sievas rokas; bet tas to neatrada.

And Judah sent the kid of the goats by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman's hand; but he found her not.

21 Tad tas vaicāja tās vietas ļaudis sacīdams: kur ir tā mauka, kas Enaimā uz ceļa sēdējusi? Un tie sacīja: še maukas nav bijis.

Then he asked the men of her place, saying: 'Where is the harlot, that was at Enaim by the wayside?' And they said: 'There hath been no harlot here.'

22 Un tas atgriezās pie Jūdas un sacīja: es to neesmu atradis, un tās vietas ļaudis arīdzan saka: še maukas nav bijis.

And he returned to Judah, and said: 'I have not found her; and also the men of the place said: There hath been no harlot here.'

23 Tad Jūda sacīja: lai tā to sev patur, ka netopam kaunā; redzi, es šo āzi esmu sūtījis, un tu viņas neesi atradis.

And Judah said: 'Let her take it, lest we be put to shame; behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.'

24 Un notikās pēc kādiem trim mēnešiem, tad Jūdam tapa vēstīts un sacīts: Tamāre, tava vedekla, maucību dzinusi, un redzi, tā ir arī grūta no maukošanas. Tad Jūda sacīja: izvediet to ārā, ka tā top sadedzināta.

And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told Judah, saying: 'Tamar thy daughter-in-law hath played the harlot; and moreover, behold, she is with child by harlotry.' And Judah said: 'Bring her forth, and let her be burnt.'

25 Kad nu tā tapa izvesta, tad tā sūtīja pie sava tēvoča un sacīja: no tā vīra, kam šās lietas pieder, es esmu grūta; un tā sacīja: vai pazīsti jel, - kam tas aizspiežamais gredzens un šī virkne un šī niedre pieder?

When she was brought forth, she sent to her father-in-law, saying: 'By the man, whose these are, am I with child'; and she said: 'Discern, I pray thee, whose are these, the signet, and the cords, and the staff.'

26 Un Jūda tās pazina un sacīja: tā sieva ir taisnāka nekā es, tāpēc ka es viņu savam dēlam Šelum neesmu devis. Un viņš to vairs neatzina.

And Judah acknowledged them, and said: 'She is more righteous than I; forasmuch as I gave her not to Shelah my son.' And he knew her again no more.

27 Un tai dzemdējot, redzi, tai bija dvīņi viņas miesās.

And it came to pass in the time of her travail, that, behold, twins were in her womb.

28 Un kad tā dzemdēja, tad viens roku izbāza, un bērnu saņēmēja to ņēma un apsēja sarkanu pavedienu ap to roku un sacīja: šis nāks pirmais ārā.

And it came to pass, when she travailed, that one put out a hand; and the midwife took and bound upon his hand a scarlet thread, saying: 'This came out first.'

29 Un kad tas to roku ievilka, redzi, tad nāca viņa brālis ārā; un tā sacīja: kāpēc tu sev plēsumu esi plēsis? Un tā viņa vārdu nosauca Perec (plēsis).

And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold his brother came out; and she said: 'Wherefore hast thou made a breach for thyself?' Therefore his name was called Perez.

30 Un pēc tam viņa brālis nāca ārā, ap kā roku tas sarkanais pavediens bija, un tā viņa vārdu nosauca Zerus (atspīdums).

And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his hand; and his name was called Zerah.
