Genesis 37
1 Jacob settled down and lived in Canaan as his father had done.
Un Jēkabs dzīvoja tai zemē, kur viņa tēvs kā svešinieks bija mitis, Kanaāna zemē.
2 This is the story of Jacob and his family. Joseph was seventeen, and helped look after the flock with his brothers, the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father's wives. Joseph told his father about some of the bad things his brothers were doing.
Šie ir Jēkaba radu raksti: Jāzeps, septiņpadsmit gadus vecs būdams, ganīja avis ar saviem brāļiem, un tas zēns bija pie Bilhas un Zilfas, sava tēva sievu, dēliem, un Jāzeps nesa viņu ļauno slavu tēvam priekšā.
3 Israel loved Joseph more than any of his other sons, because Joseph had been born to him when he was already old. He made a colorful robe with long sleeves for Joseph.
Un Israēls mīlēja Jāzepu pār visiem saviem bērniem, jo tas viņam bija dzimis vecumā, un viņš tam taisīja raibus svārkus.
4 When his brothers noticed that their father loved him more than any of them, they hated him and had nothing good to say about him.
Un viņa brāļi redzēja, ka tēvs to mīlēja pār visiem viņa brāļiem, un tie to ienīdēja un nevarēja laipni ar to runāt.
5 Joseph had a dream, and when he told his brothers about it, they hated him even more.
Un Jāzeps sapņoja sapni un to stāstīja saviem brāļiem, - tad šie to vēl vairāk ienīdēja.
6 “Listen to this dream I had,” he told them.
Un viņš uz tiem sacīja: klausāties jel šo sapni, ko esmu redzējis.
7 “We were tying up bundles of grain out in the fields when all of a sudden my bundle stood up, and your bundles came over and bowed down to it.”
Un redzi, mēs sējām kūlīšus laukā, un redzi, mans kūlītis cēlās un stāvēja, un redzi, jūsu kūlīši apstājušies klanījās pret manu kūlīti.
8 “Do you really think you're going to be our king?” they asked. “Do you honestly believe you're going to rule over us?” They hated him even more because of his dream and how he described it.
Tad viņa brāļi uz to sacīja: vai tu mums paliksi par ķēniņu? Vai tu valdīdams pār mums valdīsi? Un tie vēl vairāk to ienīdēja viņa sapņu un viņa stāstu dēļ.
9 Then he had another dream told his brothers about it. “Listen, I had another dream,” he explained. “The sun and moon and eleven stars were bowing down before me.”
Un tas sapņoja vēl citu sapni un to teica saviem brāļiem un sacīja: redzi, es vēl citu sapni esmu redzējis, un redzi, saule un mēnesis un vienpadsmit zvaigznes klanījās priekš manis.
10 He also told his father as well as his brothers, and his father told him off, saying, “What's this dream that you've had? Are we—I and your mother and brothers—really going to come and bow down to the ground before you?”
Un kad viņš to stāstīja savam tēvam un saviem brāļiem, tad viņa tēvs to aprāja un uz to sacīja: kas tas par sapni, ko tu esi sapņojis? Vai es un tava māte un tavi brāļi patiesi nāksim pie zemes klanīties tavā priekšā?
11 Joseph's brothers became jealous of him, but his father puzzled over the meaning of the dream.
Un viņa brāļi to skauda, bet viņa tēvs šo vārdu paturēja.
12 One day Joseph's brothers took their father's flocks to graze near Shechem.
Un viņa brāļi gāja ganīt sava tēva lopus Šehemē. Tad Israēls sacīja uz Jāzepu:
13 Israel told Joseph, “Your brothers are looking after the sheep near Shechem. Get ready because I want you to go and see them.” “I'll do it,” Joseph replied.
Vai tavi brāļi negana Šehemē? Nāc, es tevi sūtīšu pie tiem; un tas sacīja: redzi, še es esmu. Un viņš uz to sacīja:
14 So he told him, “Off you go and see how your brothers and the flocks are doing, and come back and let me know.” So he sent him off. Joseph set out from the Hebron Valley,
Ej jel, lūko, kā taviem brāļiem klājās un kā lopiņiem klājās, un nes man vēsti atpakaļ. Un viņš to izsūtīja no Hebrones ielejas, un tas nāca uz Šehemi.
15 and arrived in Shechem. A man there found him wandering about in the field, so he asked him, “What are you looking for?”
Un viens vīrs viņu atrada un redzi, viņš maldījās pa lauku; tad tas vīrs to vaicāja sacīdams, ko tu meklē?
16 “I'm looking for my brothers,” Joseph replied. “Can you please tell me where they're looking after the flock?”
Un tas sacīja: es meklēju savus brāļus, saki man lūdzams, kur tie gana?
17 “They've already left,” the man replied. “I heard them say, ‘Let's go to Dothan.’” So Joseph followed his brothers and caught up with them at Dothan.
Tad tas vīrs sacīja: tie no šejienes aizgājuši, jo es dzirdēju tos sakām: iesim uz Dotanu; un Jāzeps gāja saviem brāļiem pakaļ un atrada tos Dotanā.
18 But they saw him coming way off in the distance, and before he got to them, they made plans to kill him.
Un tie to ieraudzīja no tālienes, un pirms tas tuvu pie viņiem atnāca, tie sarunājās viņu nokaut,
19 “Look, here comes the Lord of Dreams!” they said to each other.
Un sacīja viens uz otru: redzi, še nāk tas sapņotājs.
20 “Come on, let's kill him and throw him into one of the pits. We'll say that some wild animal has eaten him. Then we'll see what happens to his dreams!”
Un nu nāciet, nokausim to un iemetīsim to kādā bedrē un sacīsim: negants zvērs to aprijis; tad redzēsim, kas būs no viņa sapņiem.
21 When Reuben heard all this, he tried to save Joseph from them.
Un Rūbens to dzirdēja un to izpestīja no viņu rokām un sacīja: nenokausim viņu.
22 “Let's not attack and kill him,” he suggested. “Don't murder him, just throw him into this pit here in the desert. You don't need to be guilty of violence.” Reuben said this so that he could come back later and rescue Joseph from them and take him home to his father.
Un Rūbens uz tiem sacīja: neizlejat asinis, metiet viņu tai bedrē, kas te tuksnesī, un nepieliekat rokas pie viņa, - lai viņš to izpestītu no viņu rokām un pārvestu savam tēvam.
23 So when Joseph arrived, his brothers ripped off his robe—the colorful long-sleeved robe he was wearing—
Un notikās, kad Jāzeps atnāca pie saviem brāļiem, tad tie Jāzepam novilka svārkus, tos raibos, kas tam bija mugurā.
24 grabbed him and threw him into a pit. (The pit was empty—it didn't have any water in it.)
Un tie to ņēma un iemeta bedrē, bet tā bedre bija tukša, un tur ūdens nebija iekšā.
25 They were just sitting down to have a meal when they saw a caravan of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead. Their camels were carrying aromatic spices, balm, and myrrh to take to Egypt.
Pēc tie apsēdās maizi ēst un pacēla savas acis un skatījās, un redzi, Ismaēliešu pulks nāca no Gileādas, un viņu kamieļi nesa dārgas zāles, balzamu un mirres; tie gāja, to nonest uz Ēģipti.
26 “What's the point of killing our brother?” Judah asked his brothers. “Then we'd have to cover up his death!
Tad Jūda sacīja uz saviem brāļiem: ko tas mums līdz, ja savu brāli nokaujam un viņa asinis slēpjam?
27 Instead, why don't we sell him to these Ishmaelites? We don't have to kill him. After all he's our brother, our own flesh and blood.” His brothers agreed.
Nāciet, pārdosim viņu tiem Ismaēliešiem un nepieliksim savas rokas pie viņa, jo viņš ir mūsu brālis, mūsu miesa. Un viņa brāļi tam klausīja.
28 So when the Ishmaelites (who were traders from Midian) came by, they pulled Joseph out of the pit and sold him to them for twenty pieces of silver. The Ishmaelites took him to Egypt.
Tiem Midianiešu vīriem, tiem tirgotājiem, garām ejot, tie izvilka un izcēla Jāzepu no bedres un pārdeva Jāzepu tiem Ismaēliešiem par divdesmit sudraba gabaliem, un tie aizveda Jāzepu uz Ēģiptes zemi.
29 When Reuben came back later and looked into the pit, Joseph was gone. He tore his clothes in grief.
Un Rūbens gāja atpakaļ pie tās bedres un redzi, Jāzeps nebija bedrē; tad tas saplēsa savas drēbes
30 He returned to his brothers. “The boy's gone!” he moaned. “What am I going to do now?”
Un griezās atpakaļ pie saviem brāļiem un sacīja: tā puisēna tur nav un es, - kur man būs palikt?
31 They slaughtered a goat and dipped Joseph's robe in the blood.
Un tie ņēma Jāzepa svārkus un nokāva āzi un iemērca tos svārkus asinīs.
32 Then they sent the colorful robe to their father with the message, “We found this. Please examine it and see if it's your son's robe or not.”
Un nosūtīja tos raibos svārkus un lika tos nonest savam tēvam un sacīja: šos esam atraduši; apraugi jel, vai tie ir tava dēla svārki, vai nē?
33 His father recognized it right away and said, “This is my son's robe! Some wild animal must have eaten him. Poor Joseph has been ripped to pieces, no doubt about it!”
Un tas tos pazina un sacīja: tie ir mana dēla svārki; nikns zvērs viņu ir aprijis, plosīt tas Jāzepu saplosījis.
34 Jacob tore his clothes in grief and dressed in sackcloth. He mourned the death of his son for a long time.
Un Jēkabs pārplēsa savas drēbes un apvilka maisu ap saviem gurniem un bēdājās pēc sava dēla ilgu laiku.
35 All his sons and daughters tried to console him, but he rejected their attempts. “No,” he said, “I will go down into my grave mourning for my son.” So Joseph's father went on weeping for him. (Sheol h7585)
Tad visi viņa dēli un visas viņa meitas cēlās, viņu iepriecināt, bet viņš negribējās iepriecinājams būt un sacīja: ar bēdām es noiešu kapā pie sava dēla. Un viņa tēvs to apraudāja. (Sheol h7585)
36 In the meantime the Ishmaelites had arrived in Egypt and had sold Joseph to Potiphar. Potiphar was one of Pharaoh's officers, the captain of the guard.
Un tie Midianieši to pārdeva Ēģiptes zemē Potifaram, ķēniņa Faraona kambarjunkuram un sargu virsniekam.
