Pirmā Mozus 43
1 Un bads bija grūts tanī zemē.
But the famine prevailed in the land.
2 Un kad tā labība, ko tie no Ēģiptes bija atveduši, jau bija izlietojuši, tad viņu tēvs uz tiem sacīja: noejat atkal un pērciet mums maizes kādu mazumu.
And it came to pass, when they had finished eating the corn which they had brought out of Egypt, that their father said to them, Go again; buy us a little food.
3 Un Jūda uz to runāja un sacīja: tas vīrs mums stipri piekodinājis un sacījis: jūs manu vaigu neredzēsiet, ja jūsu brālis nav jums līdz.
And Judas spoke to him, saying, The man, the lord of the country, positively testified to us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, unless your younger brother be with you.
4 Ja tad tu mūsu brāli mums sūtīsi līdz, tad mēs gribam noiet un pirkt maizes priekš tevis.
If, then, thou send our brother with us, we will go down, and buy thee food;
5 Bet ja tu to nesūtīsi, tad mēs nenoiesim, jo tas vīrs mums ir sacījis: jums nebūs manu vaigu redzēt, ja jūsu jaunākais brālis jums nav līdz.
but if thou send not our brother with us, we will not go: for the man spoke to us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, unless your younger brother be with you.
6 Tad Israēls sacīja: kāpēc jūs man tik ļauni esat darījuši, tam vīram sacīdami, ka jums vēl viens brālis esot?
And Israel said, Why did ye harm me, inasmuch as ye told the man that ye had a brother?
7 Un tie sacīja: tas vīrs jautāja jautādams pēc mums un pēc mūsu radiem un sacīja: vai jūsu tēvs vēl dzīvs? Vai jums vēl viens brālis? Tad mēs viņam atbildējām, kā viņš mums jautāja; kā tad mēs to varējām zināt, ka tas sacīs: vediet savu brāli šurp?
And they said, The man closely questioned us about our family also, saying, Does your father yet live, and have ye a brother? and we answered him according to this question: did we know that he would say to us, Bring your brother?
8 Tad Jūda sacīja uz Israēli, savu tēvu: sūti to zēnu man līdz, tad mēs celsimies un noiesim, lai dzīvojam un nemirstam, ne mēs, ne tu pats, ne mūsu bērniņi.
And Judas said to his father Israel, Send the boy with me, and we will arise and go, that we may live and not die, both we and thou, and our store.
9 Es galvoju par viņu, no manas rokas tev būs viņu prasīt; ja es to pie tevis nevedīšu atpakaļ un to nestādīšu priekš tavām acīm, tad es visu savu mūžu gribu noziedzīgs būt tavā priekšā.
And I engage for him; at my hand do thou require him; if I bring him not to thee, and place him before thee, I shall be guilty toward thee for ever.
10 Jo ja mēs nebūtu kavējušies, mēs tagad jau otru reizi būtu pārnākuši.
For if we had not tarried, we should now have returned twice.
11 Tad viņu tēvs Israēls uz tiem sacīja: ja tam nu tā būs būt, tad dariet tā: ņemiet no šās zemes visteicamiem augļiem savos traukos un nonesiet tam vīram dāvanu, balzama kādu mazumu un kādu mazumu medus, dārgas zāles un mirres, riekstus un mandeles.
And Israel, their father, said to them, If it be so, do this; take of the fruits of the earth in your vessels, and carry down to the man presents of gum and honey, and frankincense, and stacte, and turpentine, and walnuts.
12 Ņemiet arīdzan otrtik naudas savā rokā, un to naudu, kas jūsu maisu virsgalā atlikta, nesiet atpakaļ savā rokā, tiem jau tur būs misējies.
And take double money in your hands, and the money that was returned in your sacks, carry back with you, lest peradventure it is a mistake.
13 Ņemiet arī savu brāli un ceļaties un ejat atkal pie tā vīra.
And take your brother; and arise, go down to the man.
14 Bet tas visuvarenais Dievs lai jums dod žēlastību tā vīra priekšā, ka tas atlaiž jūsu otru brāli un Benjaminu. Bet es esmu tā kā kam bērni rautin atrauti.
And my God give you favour in the sight of the man, and send away your other brother, and Benjamin, for I accordingly as I have been bereaved, am bereaved.
15 Tad tie vīri ņēma to dāvanu, un ņēma otrtik naudas savā rokā un Benjaminu, un cēlās un nogāja uz Ēģiptes zemi un stājās Jāzepa priekšā.
And the men having taken these presents, and the double money, took in their hands also Benjamin; and they rose up and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
16 Kad nu Jāzeps Benjaminu pie tiem ieraudzīja, tad viņš sacīja tam, kas bija pār viņa namu: ieved tos vīrus namā un nokauj kādu kaujamu lopu un taisi ēdienu, jo tie vīri pie manis ēdīs pusdienu.
And Joseph saw them and his brother Benjamin, born of the same mother; and he said to the steward of his household, Bring the men into the house, and slay beasts and make ready, for the men are to eat bread with me at noon.
17 Un tas vīrs darīja, kā Jāzeps bija sacījis, un tas vīrs ieveda tos vīrus Jāzepa namā.
And the man did as Joseph said; and he brought the men into the house of Joseph.
18 Tad tie vīri bijās, kad tos veda Jāzepa namā, un sacīja: tās naudas dēļ, ko viņu reiz' atdabūjām savos maisos, mēs esam ievesti, lai viņš mums var uzbrukt un mums uzmākties un mūs par vergiem ņemt un mūsu ēzeļus.
And the men, when they perceived that they were brought into the house of Joseph, said, We are brought in because of the money that was returned in our sacks at the first; even in order to inform against us, and lay it to our charge; to take us for servants, and our asses.
19 Tad tie piegāja pie tā vīra, kas bija pār Jāzepa namu, un runāja ar to priekš nama durvīm
And having approached the man who was over the house of Joseph, they spoke to him in the porch of the house,
20 Un sacīja: ak mans kungs, mums viņu reiz' bija jānāk, labības pirkt.
saying, We pray [thee], Sir; we came down at first to buy food.
21 Un kad bijām nākuši mājas vietā un atraisījām savus maisus, redzi, tad ikvienam tā nauda bija viņa maisa virsgalā ar pilnu svaru, un mēs to esam atkal atnesuši savā rokā.
And it came to pass, when we came to unlade, and opened our sacks, [there was] also this money of each in his sack; we have now brought back our money by weight in our hands.
22 Mēs arī esam atnesuši citu naudu savā rokā, maizes pirkt, mēs nezinām, kas mūsu naudu mūsu maisos ielicis.
And we have brought other money with us to buy food; we know not who put the money into our sacks.
23 Un tas sacīja: esiet ar mieru, nebīstaties! Jūsu Dievs un jūsu tēva Dievs jums devis jūsu maisos apslēptu mantu; jūsu nauda man rokā tikusi. Un viņš izveda Sīmeanu pie tiem ārā.
And he said to them, [God deal] mercifully with you; be not afraid; your God, and the God of your fathers, has given you treasures in your sacks, and I have enough of your good money. And he brought Symeon out to them.
24 Pēc viņš tos vīrus ieveda Jāzepa namā un tiem deva ūdeni, un tie mazgāja savas kājas; un viņš deva viņu ēzeļiem ēdamo.
And he brought water to wash their feet; and gave provender to their asses.
25 Un tie sataisīja to dāvanu, tiekams Jāzeps nāca uz pusdienu; jo tie bija dzirdējuši, ka tiem tur bija maizi ēst.
And they prepared their gifts, until Joseph came at noon, for they heard that he was going to dine there.
26 Kad nu Jāzeps nāca namā, tad tie viņam namā atnesa to dāvanu, kas bija viņu rokās, un metās viņa priekšā pie zemes.
And Joseph entered into the house, and they brought him the gifts which they had in their hands, into the house; and they did him reverence with their face to the ground.
27 Un viņš jautāja, kā tiem klājās, un sacīja: kā klājās jūsu vecajam tēvam, par ko jūs stāstījāt? Vai viņš vēl dzīvs?
And he asked them, How are ye? and he said to them, Is your father, the old man of whom ye spoke, well? Does he yet live?
28 Un tie sacīja: tavam kalpam, mūsu tēvam, labi klājās, viņš vēl dzīvs; un tie noliecās un klanījās.
And they said, Thy servant our father is well; he is yet alive. And he said, Blessed be that man by God; —and they bowed, and did him reverence.
29 Un viņš pacēla savas acis un ieraudzīja savu brāli Benjaminu, savas mātes dēlu, un sacīja: vai šis ir jūsu jaunākais brālis, par ko man stāstījāt? Un viņš sacīja: Dievs lai tev žēlīgs, mans dēls!
And Joseph lifted up his eyes, and saw his brother Benjamin, born of the same mother; and he said, Is this your younger brother, whom ye spoke of bringing to me? and he said, God have mercy on thee, my son.
30 Un Jāzeps steidzās, jo viņa sirds iesila uz savu brāli, un viņš meklēja, kur raudāt, un iegāja kambarī un tur raudāja.
And Joseph was troubled, for his bowels yearned over his brother, and he sought to weep; and he went into his chamber, and wept there.
31 Un viņš mazgāja savu vaigu un nāca ārā un savaldījās un sacīja: celiet maizi priekšā.
And he washed his face and came out, and refrained himself, and said, Set on bread.
32 Un tie cēla priekšā viņam (at)sevišķi un viņiem (at)sevišķi, un tiem ēģiptiešiem (at)sevišķi, kas pie viņa ēda, jo ēģiptieši ar Ebrejiem nevar maizi ēst, jo ēģiptiešiem tā ir negantība.
And they set on [bread] for him alone, and for them by themselves, and for the Egyptians feasting with him by themselves, for the Egyptians could not eat bread with the Hebrews, for it is an abomination to the Egyptians.
33 Un tie sēdēja viņam pretī, tas pirmdzimtais pēc savas pirmdzimtības, un tas jaunākais pēc savas jaunības.
And they sat before him, the first-born according to his seniority, and the younger according to his youth; and the men looked with amazement every one at his brother.
34 Par to tie vīri brīnījās savā starpā, un viņš cēla tiem priekšā goda daļas no sava galda, bet Benjamina daļu viņš pieckārtīgi vairoja pār visu citu daļām; un tie dzēra un padzērās ar viņu.
And they took their portions from him to themselves; but Benjamin's portion was five times as much as the portions of [the others]. And they drank and were filled with drink with him.
