Pirmā Mozus 44
1 Un viņš pavēlēja tam, kas bija pār viņa namu, un sacīja: pildi to vīru maisus ar labību, cik tie var nest, un liec ikviena naudu viņa maisa virsgalā.
Joseph ordered his household supervisor, “Fill the men's sacks with as much grain as they can hold and put each man's money at the top of his sack.
2 Un manu biķeri, to sudraba biķeri, liec tam jaunākam maisa virsgalā, arī viņa labības naudu. Un tas darīja pēc Jāzepa vārda, ko viņš bija sacījis.
Then put my special silver cup at the top of the sack of the youngest, along with the money for his grain.” He did as Joseph told him.
3 Rītā, gaismai austot, tie vīri tapa atlaisti līdz ar saviem ēzeļiem.
At sunrise they were sent on their way with their donkeys.
4 Bet tiem no pilsētas izejot un tāli vēl neesot, Jāzeps sacīja savam nama uzraugam: celies, dzenies tiem vīriem pakaļ, un tos panācis saki tiem: kādēļ esat atmaksājuši labu ar ļaunu?
They had hardly left the city when Joseph told his household supervisor, “Go after those men, and when you catch up with them, ask them, ‘Why have you paid back good with evil by stealing my master's silver cup?
5 Vai šis nav tas, no kā mans kungs dzer? Un no tā viņš mēdz padzert. Jūs esat ļaunu darījuši, to darīdami.
This is the cup he personally drinks from, and which he uses for divination. What you've done is really evil!’”
6 Un tas viņus panāca un viņiem sacīja šos vārdus.
When he caught up with them, he told them what Joseph had said.
7 Tad viņi uz to sacīja: kāpēc mans kungs runā tādus vārdus? Ne mūžam tavi kalpi tādu darbu nedarīs.
“My lord, what are you saying?” they replied. “We your servants wouldn't do anything like that!
8 Redzi, to naudu, ko esam atraduši savu maisu virsgalā, mēs tev atkal esam atnesuši no Kanaāna zemes, - kā tad mēs zagsim no tava kunga nama sudrabu vai zeltu?
Remember that we brought back the money we found at the top of our sacks when we returned from Canaan. Why would we steal silver or gold from your master's house?
9 Pie kura no taviem kalpiem to atradīs, tas lai mirst, un mēs arī gribam būt par vergiem savam kungam.
If any one of us is found with it, he shall die, and all of us will become your slaves.”
10 Un viņš sacīja: lai nu arī notiek pēc jūsu vārdiem: pie kura to atradīs, tas būs mans vergs, bet jūs būsiet svabadi.
“Whatever you say,” the man replied, “but only the one found with it will become my slave since the rest of you will be free of any blame.”
11 Un tie steidzās un nocēla ikviens savu maisu zemē, un ikviens atraisīja savu maisu.
They all unloaded their sacks and put them on the ground. They each opened their own sacks.
12 Un viņš pārmeklēja no tā vecākā iesākdams un pie tā jaunākā beigdams, un tas biķeris tapa atrasts Benjamina maisā.
The household supervisor searched the sacks, beginning with the oldest and working his way down to the youngest. The cup was found in Benjamin's sack.
13 Tad tie saplēsa savas drēbes un apkrāva ikviens savu ēzeli un griezās atpakaļ uz pilsētu.
The brothers tore their clothes in grief. Then they loaded their sacks back on their donkeys and headed back to the city.
14 Un Jūda ar saviem brāļiem nāca Jāzepa namā, jo šis tur vēl bija, un tie nometās priekš viņa vaiga pie zemes.
Joseph was still at home when Judah and his brothers arrived, and they fell to the ground before him.
15 Un Jāzeps uz tiem sacīja: kas tas par darbu, ko jūs esat darījuši? Vai nezinājāt, ka tāds vīrs, kā es, tiešām to paredzēs?
“Why did you do this?” Joseph asked. “Don't you know a man like me can find out things through divination?”
16 Tad Jūda sacīja: ko lai sakām savam kungam, ko lai runājam un kā lai taisnojamies? Dievs tavu kalpu noziegumu ir atradis, redzi, mēs esam sava kunga vergi, - tā mēs, kā arī tas, pie kā tas biķeris atrasts.
“My lord, what can we say?” Judah replied. “How can we explain this to you? In what way can we prove our innocence? God has exposed the guilt of your servants. My lord, we are your slaves—all of us, including the one who was found with the cup.”
17 Tad viņš sacīja: nemūžam es to nedarīšu; tas vīrs, pie kā tas biķeris atrasts, tam būs man būt par vergu. Bet jūs ejat ar mieru pie sava tēva.
“I wouldn't do anything like that!” Joseph replied. “Only the man who was found with the cup will become my slave. The rest of you are free to return to your father.”
18 Tad Jūda pie tā piegāja un sacīja: ak mans kungs! Lūdzams, lai tavs kalps runā kādu vārdu priekš sava kunga ausīm, un neapskaities par savu kalpu, jo tu esi tik augsts kā Faraons.
Judah came closer and said to him, “If you please, my lord, let your servant just say a word. Please don't become angry with your servant, even though you are as powerful as Pharaoh himself.
19 Mans kungs vaicāja savus kalpus un sacīja: vai jums ir tēvs vai brālis?
My lord, previously you asked us, ‘Do you have a father or a brother?’
20 Tad mēs sacījām savam kungam: mums ir vecs tēvs un viens zēns, kas tam vecumā dzimis, tas jaunākais, un viņa brālis ir miris, un tas ir viens pats no savas mātes atlicis, un viņa tēvs viņu mīļo.
We told you, my lord, ‘We have an elderly father, and a younger brother, born when our father was already old. The boy's brother is dead. He is the only one of his mother's children left, and his father loves him dearly.’
21 Tad tu sacīji saviem kalpiem: atvediet to pie manis, lai manas acis viņu redz.
Then you ordered us, ‘Bring him here to me so I can see him.’
22 Tad mēs sacījām uz savu kungu: tas zēns savu tēvu nevar atstāt; ja tas atstās savu tēvu, tad šis mirs.
We told you, ‘The boy can't leave his father; if he did, his father would die.’
23 Tad tu saviem kalpiem sacīji: ja jūsu jaunākais brālis ar jums neatnāk, tad jūs manu vaigu vairs neredzēsiet.
But you told us, ‘If your youngest brother doesn't come with you, you won't see me again.’
24 Un kad mēs nācām pie tava kalpa, sava tēva, un viņam sacījām sava kunga vārdus,
So when we went back to your servant, our father, we explained to him everything you had told us.
25 Tad mūsu tēvs sacīja: noejat atkal, pērciet mums ēdama kādu mazumu.
However, later on, our father told us, ‘Go back and buy some more food.’
26 Tad sacījām: mēs nevaram noiet: ja mūsu jaunākais brālis mums ir līdz, tad mēs noiesim. Jo mēs nevaram tā vīra vaigu redzēt, ja šis mūsu jaunākais brālis nav mums līdz.
But we said, ‘There's no way we can go back unless Benjamin our youngest brother goes with us, because we won't be able to see the man if Benjamin isn't with us.’
27 Tad tavs kalps, mans tēvs, mums sacīja: jūs zināt, ka mana sieva man divus dēlus dzemdējusi.
Then my father said to us, ‘You realize that my wife had two sons for me.
28 Un tas viens ir no manis aizgājis, un es sacīju, tiešām tas ir saplosīts, un es to vairs neesmu redzējis.
One is no more, ripped to pieces no doubt, for I've never seen him since.
29 Ja tad jūs arī šo paņemsiet no manām acīm un tam kāda nelaime uzies, tad jūs manus sirmos matus ar sirdēstiem novedīsiet kapā. (Sheol h7585)
If you take this one away from me too, and something bad happens to him, you'll send this old man to his grave in grief.’ (Sheol h7585)
30 Tad nu, kad es nākšu pie tava kalpa, sava tēva, un tas zēns mums nebūs līdz, jo tā tēva dvēsele viņa dvēselei sietin piesieta,
So if the boy isn't with us when I go back to my father, whose life depends on the life of the boy,
31 Tad notiks, kad tas redzēs, ka tā zēna nav, tad tas mirs, un tavi kalpi novedīs tava kalpa, mana tēva, sirmos matus ar sirdēstiem kapā. (Sheol h7585)
as soon as he sees the boy isn't there he'll die, and we will really send this old man, our father, to his grave in grief. (Sheol h7585)
32 Jo tavs kalps ir galvojis par to zēnu pie sava tēva, un sacījis: ja es viņu tev atpakaļ neatvedīšu, tad visu savu mūžu es gribu būt noziedzīgs sava tēva priekšā.
In fact I gave myself as the guarantee for the boy to my father. I told him, ‘If I don't bring him back to you, then I will always carry the blame!’
33 Un nu lai jel tavs kalps tā zēna vietā paliek par sava kunga vergu, un lai tas zēns aiziet ar saviem brāļiem.
So please let me stay here as my lord's slave instead of the boy. Let him go back home with his brothers.
34 Jo kā es varētu iet pie sava tēva, ja tas zēns man nebūtu līdz? - Man būtu jāredz tie sirdēsti, kas manam tēvam uzies.
For how could I ever go back to my father if the boy wasn't with me? I couldn't stand seeing the anguish that would cause my father.”
