Genesis 39
1 Now Joseph was taken down to Egypt; and Potiphar the Egyptian, a captain of high position in Pharaoh's house, got him for a price from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there.
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.
2 And the Lord was with Joseph, and he did well; and he was living in the house of his master the Egyptian.
Un Tas Kungs bija ar Jāzepu, tā ka tam viss laimīgi izdevās, un tas bija sava kunga, tā ēģiptieša, namā.
3 And his master saw that the Lord was with him, making everything he did go well.
Un viņa kungs redzēja, ka Tas Kungs bija ar viņu, un ka Tas Kungs visiem darbiem labi lika izdoties caur viņa roku.
4 And having a high opinion of Joseph as his servant, he made him the overseer of his house and gave him control over all he had.
Tad Jāzeps atrada žēlastību viņa priekšā un viņam kalpoja, un viņš to iecēla pār savu namu, un deva viņa rokā visu, kas tam piederēja.
5 And from the time when he made him overseer and gave him control of all his property, the blessing of the Lord was with the Egyptian, because of Joseph; the blessing of the Lord was on all he had, in the house and in the field.
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.
6 And he gave Joseph control of all his property, keeping no account of anything, but only the food which was put before him. Now Joseph was very beautiful in form and face.
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.
7 And after a time, his master's wife, looking on Joseph with desire, said to him, Be my lover.
Un notikās pēc šīm lietām, ka viņa kunga sieva savas acis uzmeta uz Jāzepu un sacīja: guli pie manis.
8 But he would not, and said to her, You see that my master keeps no account of what I do in his house, and has put all his property in my control;
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.
9 So that no one has more authority in this house than I have; he has kept nothing back from me but you, because you are his wife; how then may I do this great wrong, sinning against God?
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?
10 And day after day she went on requesting Joseph to come to her and be her lover, but he would not give ear to her.
Un kad viņa ikdienas to uz Jāzepu runāja, un tas viņai nepaklausīja, ka pie viņas būtu gulējis un ap viņu bijis,
11 Now one day he went into the house to do his work; and not one of the men of the house was inside.
Tad notikās kādā dienā Jāzepam namā nākot savu darbu padarīt, un no nama ļaudīm nevienam mājās neesot,
12 And pulling at his coat, she said, Come to my bed; but slipping out of his coat, he went running away.
Ka tā viņu sagrāba pie drēbēm un sacīja: guli pie manis. Bet tas pameta savas drēbes viņas rokā un izbēga un izgāja ārā.
13 And when she saw that he had got away, letting her keep his coat,
Kad nu tā redzēja, ka tas savas drēbes viņas rokā bija pametis un izbēdzis ārā,
14 She sent for the men of her house and said to them, See, he has let a Hebrew come here and make sport of us; he came to my bed, and I gave a loud cry;
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).
15 And hearing it he went running out without his coat.
Un kad tas dzirdēja, ka es savu balsi pacēlu un brēcu, tad tas pameta savas drēbes pie manis un aizbēga un izmuka ārā.
16 And she kept his coat by her, till his master came back.
Un tā lika viņa drēbes sev līdzās, kamēr viņas kungs pārnāca mājā; tad tā uz viņu runāja pēc šiem vārdiem
17 Then she gave him the same story, saying, The Hebrew servant whom you have taken into our house came in to make sport of me;
Un sacīja: tas Ebreju kalps, ko tu mums esi atvedis, nāca pie manis, mani apsmiet.
18 And when I gave a loud cry he went running out without his coat.
Un kad es savu balsi pacēlu un brēcu, tad tas pameta savas drēbes pie manis un izbēga ārā.
19 And hearing his wife's account of what his servant had done, he became very angry.
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.
20 And Joseph's master took him and put him in prison, in the place where the king's prisoners were kept in chains, and he was there in the prison-house.
Un Jāzepa kungs to ņēma un to ielika cietuma namā, tanī vietā, kur ķēniņa cietuma ļaudis tapa apsargāti; un viņš bija tur cietuma namā.
21 But the Lord was with Joseph, and was good to him, and made the keeper of the prison his friend.
Bet Tas Kungs bija ar Jāzepu, un tam parādīja apžēlošanu un tam lika atrast žēlastību cietuma sarga priekšā.
22 And the keeper of the prison put all the prisoners under Joseph's control, and he was responsible for whatever was done there.
Un cietuma sargs deva Jāzepa rokā visus cietuma ļaudis, kas cietuma namā bija, un viss, kas tur bija jādara, to viņš darīja.
23 And the keeper of the prison gave no attention to anything which was under his care, because the Lord was with him; and the Lord made everything he did go well.
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.
