Pirmā Mozus 39
1 Un Jāzeps tapa novests uz Ēģipti, un Potifars, Faraona kambarjunkurs un sargu virsnieks, viens ēģiptiešu vīrs, to nopirka no to Ismaēliešu rokas, kas to uz turieni bija noveduši.
Joseph had been taken to Egypt by the Ishmaelites, who had sold him to Potiphar, an Egyptian who was one of Pharaoh's officers, the commander of the royal guard.
2 Un Tas Kungs bija ar Jāzepu, tā ka tam viss laimīgi izdevās, un tas bija sava kunga, tā ēģiptieša, namā.
The Lord was with Joseph and made him successful. He lived in his Egyptian master's house.
3 Un viņa kungs redzēja, ka Tas Kungs bija ar viņu, un ka Tas Kungs visiem darbiem labi lika izdoties caur viņa roku.
His master noticed that the Lord was with him and made him successful in everything he did.
4 Tad Jāzeps atrada žēlastību viņa priekšā un viņam kalpoja, un viņš to iecēla pār savu namu, un deva viņa rokā visu, kas tam piederēja.
Potiphar appreciated Joseph and his service, and put him in charge of his household and made him responsible for everything he owned.
5 Un no tā laika, kad viņš to bija cēlis pār savu namu un pār visu, kas viņam piederēja, Tas Kungs svētīja tā ēģiptieša namu Jāzepa labad, un Tā Kunga svētība bija visās lietās, kas viņam piederēja, sētā un laukā.
From the time he put Joseph in charge and trusted him with all he had, the Lord blessed Potiphar's household because of Joseph. The Lord blessed everything he had, whether in his house or in his fields.
6 Un visu, kas tam piederēja, viņš nodeva Jāzepa rokās, un negādāja pats par neko, kā vien par to maizi, ko ēda. Un Jāzeps bija skaists no auguma un skaists no ģīmja.
So Potiphar left Joseph to care for everything he owned. He didn't bother with anything except to decide what food he was going to eat. Now Joseph was handsome, having a good physique,
7 Un notikās pēc šīm lietām, ka viņa kunga sieva savas acis uzmeta uz Jāzepu un sacīja: guli pie manis.
so some time later he caught the eye of his master's wife. She propositioned him, saying, “Come here! Sleep with me!”
8 Bet viņš liedzās un sacīja uz sava kunga sievu: redzi, mans kungs negādā par neko, kas ir namā, un visu, kas viņam pieder, viņš ir devis manā rokā.
But he turned her down, telling his master's wife, “Look, my master trusts me so much he doesn't even bother to find out how his household is running. He's put me in charge of everything he owns—
9 Neviens šinī namā nav lielāks pār mani, un viņš man neko nav aizliedzis, bez vien tevi, tāpēc ka tu esi viņa sieva; kā tad lai es tādu lielu ļaunumu daru un pret Dievu grēkoju?
no one in this house has more authority than me! He hasn't held back anything from me except you, because you are his wife. So how could I do such an evil thing as this, and sin against God?”
10 Un kad viņa ikdienas to uz Jāzepu runāja, un tas viņai nepaklausīja, ka pie viņas būtu gulējis un ap viņu bijis,
Day after day she persisted in asking him, but he refused to sleep with her and tried to avoid her.
11 Tad notikās kādā dienā Jāzepam namā nākot savu darbu padarīt, un no nama ļaudīm nevienam mājās neesot,
But one day he went into the house to do his work and none of the other servants were there.
12 Ka tā viņu sagrāba pie drēbēm un sacīja: guli pie manis. Bet tas pameta savas drēbes viņas rokā un izbēga un izgāja ārā.
She grabbed him by his clothing, and demanded, “Sleep with me!” But leaving his clothing in her hand, he ran out of the house.
13 Kad nu tā redzēja, ka tas savas drēbes viņas rokā bija pametis un izbēdzis ārā,
Seeing that he'd left his clothing in her hand, and had ran out of the house,
14 Tad tā sasauca savu saimi un runāja uz tiem un sacīja: raugāt, viņš to Ebreju vīru pie mums ir atvedis mūs apsmiet; tas nāca pie manis gulēt un es brēcu visā galvā(skaļā balsī).
she shouted out to her servants, “Look at this! He brought this Hebrew slave here to dishonor us! This man came to try and rape me, but I screamed at the top of my voice.
15 Un kad tas dzirdēja, ka es savu balsi pacēlu un brēcu, tad tas pameta savas drēbes pie manis un aizbēga un izmuka ārā.
When he heard me scream for help, he left his clothing beside me and ran outside.”
16 Un tā lika viņa drēbes sev līdzās, kamēr viņas kungs pārnāca mājā; tad tā uz viņu runāja pēc šiem vārdiem
She kept his clothing with her until her husband came home.
17 Un sacīja: tas Ebreju kalps, ko tu mums esi atvedis, nāca pie manis, mani apsmiet.
Then she told him her story. It went like this: “That Hebrew slave you brought here tried to come and dishonor me.
18 Un kad es savu balsi pacēlu un brēcu, tad tas pameta savas drēbes pie manis un izbēga ārā.
But as soon as I screamed and called for help, he left his clothing beside me and ran outside.”
19 Un kad viņa kungs dzirdēja savas sievas vārdus, kā tā uz viņu bija runājusi sacīdama: tā un tā man tavs kalps darījis, tad viņa kungs apskaitās ļoti.
When Potiphar heard the story his wife told him, saying, “This is what your servant did to me,” he became angry.
20 Un Jāzepa kungs to ņēma un to ielika cietuma namā, tanī vietā, kur ķēniņa cietuma ļaudis tapa apsargāti; un viņš bija tur cietuma namā.
He took Joseph and put him in the prison where the king's prisoners were kept, and there he stayed.
21 Bet Tas Kungs bija ar Jāzepu, un tam parādīja apžēlošanu un tam lika atrast žēlastību cietuma sarga priekšā.
But the Lord was with Joseph, showing him trustworthy love, and made the chief jailer pleased with him.
22 Un cietuma sargs deva Jāzepa rokā visus cietuma ļaudis, kas cietuma namā bija, un viss, kas tur bija jādara, to viņš darīja.
So the chief jailer put Joseph in charge of all the prisoners there and gave him the responsibility for running the prison.
23 Cietuma sargs neraudzīja ne uz vienu lietu, kas bija viņa rokā, jo Tas Kungs bija ar viņu, un ko vien viņš darīja, tam Tas Kungs lika labi izdoties.
The chief jailer didn't bother with anything for Joseph took care of it all for the Lord was with him and made him successful.
