Acts 7
1 The high priest said, “Are these things so?”
Un tas augstais priesteris sacīja: “Vai tas tā ir?”
2 He said, “Brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,
Bet viņš sacīja: “Vīri, brāļi un tēvi, klausāties! Tas godības Dievs parādījās mūsu tēvam Ābrahāmam, kad viņš bija Mezopotamijā, pirms Hāranā mājoja,
3 and said to him, ‘Get out of your land and away from your relatives, and come into a land which I will show you.’
Un sacīja uz viņu: izej no savas zemes un no saviem radiem un ej uz to zemi, ko Es tev rādīšu.
4 Then he came out of the land of the Chaldaeans and lived in Haran. From there, when his father was dead, God moved him into this land where you are now living.
Tad viņš no Kaldeju zemes izgājis mājoja Hāranā; un pēc, kad viņa tēvs bija nomiris, Dievs viņu no turienes pārveda uz šo zemi, kur jūs tagad dzīvojiet,
5 He gave him no inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on. He promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his offspring after him, when he still had no child.
Un viņam nedeva nekādu iemantojamu tiesu iekš tās, ir ne pēdas platumā; un tomēr viņam to solīja par mantu dot un viņa dzimumam pēc viņa, kad viņam bērnu vēl nebija.
6 God spoke in this way: that his offspring would live as aliens in a strange land, and that they would be enslaved and mistreated for four hundred years.
Bet Dievs tā runāja: tavs dzimums būs piedzīvotājs svešā zemē un piespiests pie kalpošanas un grūti vārdzināts četrsimt gadus.
7 ‘I will judge the nation to which they will be in bondage,’ said God, ‘and after that they will come out and serve me in this place.’
Un to tautu, kam tie kalpos, Es gribu sodīt, Dievs sacīja; un pēc tam tie izies un Man kalpos šinī vietā.
8 He gave him the covenant of circumcision. So Abraham became the father of Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day. Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob became the father of the twelve patriarchs.
Un Viņš tam deva to apgraizīšanas derību. Un tā viņš dzemdināja to Īzaku un to apgraizīja astotā dienā, un Īzaks to Jēkabu, un Jēkabs tos divpadsmit vectēvus.
9 “The patriarchs, moved with jealousy against Joseph, sold him into Egypt. God was with him
Un tie vectēvi apskauda un pārdeva Jāzepu uz Ēģiptes zemi; un Dievs bija ar viņu,
10 and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. He made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
Un to izglāba no visām viņa bēdām un tam deva žēlastību un gudrību Faraona, Ēģiptes ķēniņa, priekšā, un tas viņu iecēla par valdītāju pār Ēģiptes zemi un visu savu namu.
11 Now a famine came over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction. Our fathers found no food.
Bet bads nāca un lielas bēdas pār visu Ēģiptes un Kanaāna zemi; un mūsu tēvi neatrada barības.
12 But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers the first time.
Un Jēkabs dzirdējis, labību esam Ēģiptes zemē, izsūtīja mūsu tēvus pirmo reiz.
13 On the second time Joseph was made known to his brothers, and Joseph’s family was revealed to Pharaoh.
Un otru reiz Jāzeps no saviem brāļiem tapa pazīts, un Jāzepa radi Faraonam kļuva zināmi.
14 Joseph sent and summoned Jacob his father and all his relatives, seventy-five souls.
Un Jāzeps sūtīja un ataicināja savu tēvu Jēkabu un visus savus radus, septiņdesmit un piecas dvēseles.
15 Jacob went down into Egypt and he died, himself and our fathers;
Un Jēkabs nogāja uz Ēģiptes zemi un nomira, viņš un mūsu tēvi,
16 and they were brought back to Shechem and laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price in silver from the children of Hamor of Shechem.
Un tapa pārvesti uz Šehemi un tai kapā ielikti, ko Ābrahāms ar sudraba maksu bija pircis no Hamora bērniem Šehemē.
17 “But as the time of the promise came close which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
Bet kad tas apsolīšanas laiks tuvu klāt nāca, ko Dievs Ābrahāmam bija zvērējis, tad tie ļaudis auga un vairojās Ēģiptes zemē,
18 until there arose a different king who didn’t know Joseph.
Tiekams cits ķēniņš cēlās, kas Jāzepu nepazina.
19 The same took advantage of our race and mistreated our fathers, and forced them to abandon their babies, so that they wouldn’t stay alive.
Šis mūsu tautai ar viltu uzmācās un mūsu tēviem ļaunu darīja, tā ka viņiem savi mazie bērniņi bija jāizmet laukā, lai tie nepaliktu pie dzīvības.
20 At that time Moses was born, and was exceedingly handsome to God. He was nourished three months in his father’s house.
Tai laikā Mozus piedzima un bija Dievam patīkams un tapa audzināts trīs mēnešus sava tēva namā.
21 When he was abandoned, Pharaoh’s daughter took him up and reared him as her own son.
Un kad tas bija izlikts laukā, tad Faraona meita to uzņēma un to uzaudzināja sev pašai par dēlu.
22 Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. He was mighty in his words and works.
Un Mozus tapa mācīts visā ēģiptiešu gudrībā un bija spēcīgs vārdos un darbos.
23 But when he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the children of Israel.
Kad nu viņš bija četrdesmit gadus vecs, tad tas savā sirdī apņēmās, apmeklēt savus brāļus, Israēla bērnus.
24 Seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him and avenged him who was oppressed, striking the Egyptian.
Un redzēdams, ka viens netaisnību cieta, viņš pārstāvēja un atrieba to, kam pāri darīja, un nosita to Ēģiptieti.
25 He supposed that his brothers understood that God, by his hand, was giving them deliverance; but they didn’t understand.
Un viņš domāja, ka viņa brāļi nomanīšot, ka Dievs caur viņa roku tiem dodot pestīšanu. Bet tie to nesaprata.
26 “The day following, he appeared to them as they fought, and urged them to be at peace again, saying, ‘Sirs, you are brothers. Why do you wrong one another?’
Un otrā dienā viņš tiem piestājās, kad tie bārās un tos skubināja uz mieru sacīdams: vīri, jūs esat brāļi, kāpēc jūs viens otram pāri darāt?
27 But he who did his neighbor wrong pushed him away, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?
Bet tas, kas savam tuvākam pāri darīja, viņu atgrūda sacīdams: kas tevi cēlis par virsnieku un tiesas kungu pār mums?
28 Do you want to kill me as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?’
Vai tu mani arīdzan gribi nokaut, kā tu vakar to Ēģiptieti esi nokāvis?
29 Moses fled at this saying, and became a stranger in the land of Midian, where he became the father of two sons.
Un Mozus šī vārda dēļ bēga un piemita Midijana zemē, kur viņš divus dēlus dzemdināja.
30 “When forty years were fulfilled, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in a flame of fire in a bush.
Un kad četrdesmit gadi bija pagājuši, tad Tā Kunga eņģelis Sinaī kalna tuksnesī viņam parādījās degošā ērkšķu krūmā.
31 When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight. As he came close to see, the voice of the Lord came to him,
Un Mozus to redzēdams, brīnījās par to parādīšanu, un kad tas piegāja to aplūkot, tad Tā Kunga balss uz viņu notika:
32 ‘I am the God of your fathers: the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ Moses trembled and dared not look.
“Es esmu tavu tēvu Dievs, Ābrahāma Dievs un Īzaka Dievs un Jēkaba Dievs.” Un Mozus sāka drebēt un nedrīkstēja tur skatīties.
33 The Lord said to him, ‘Take off your sandals, for the place where you stand is holy ground.
Bet Tas Kungs uz to sacīja: “Noauni kurpes no savām kājām, jo tā vieta, kur tu stāvi, ir svēta zeme.
34 I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their groaning. I have come down to deliver them. Now come, I will send you into Egypt.’
Es redzēdams esmu redzējis Savu ļaužu grūtumu Ēģiptes zemē, un dzirdējis viņu nopūšanos un nolaidies tos izglābt; un nu nāc, Es tevi sūtīšu uz Ēģiptes zemi.”
35 “This Moses whom they refused, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge?’—God has sent him as both a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.
Šo Mozu, ko tie bija aizlieguši sacīdami: kas tevi cēlis par virsnieku un tiesas kungu? šo Dievs sūtījis par virsnieku un pestītāju caur tā eņģeļa roku, kas tam bija parādījies ērkšķu krūmā.
36 This man led them out, having worked wonders and signs in Egypt, in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness for forty years.
Šis viņus ir izvedis, darīdams brīnumus un zīmes Ēģiptes zemē un sarkanā jūrā un tuksnesī četrdesmit gadus.
37 This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel, ‘The Lord our God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me.’
Šis ir tas Mozus, kas uz Israēla bērniem sacīja: “Tas Kungs, jūsu Dievs, jums no jūsu brāļiem cels vienu pravieti tā kā mani; To jums būs klausīt.”
38 This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness with the angel that spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, who received living revelations to give to us,
Šis pie tās draudzes tuksnesī bija ar to eņģeli, kas uz viņu runāja Sinaī kalnā, un bija ar mūsu tēviem; un saņēma dzīvus vārdus, mums tos dot;
39 to whom our fathers wouldn’t be obedient, but rejected him and turned back in their hearts to Egypt,
Tam mūsu tēvi negribēja paklausīt, bet viņu atmeta un savās sirdis atgriezās uz Ēģiptes zemi,
40 saying to Aaron, ‘Make us gods that will go before us, for as for this Moses who led us out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.’
Sacīdami uz Āronu: taisi mums dievus, kas mūsu priekšā ies; jo mēs nezinām, kas ir noticis šim Mozum, kas mūs izvedis no Ēģiptes zemes.
41 They made a calf in those days, and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their hands.
Un tie taisīja tanīs dienās vienu teļu un pienesa tam elkadievam upurus un priecājās par savu roku darbiem.
42 But God turned away and gave them up to serve the army of the sky, as it is written in the book of the prophets, ‘Did you offer to me slain animals and sacrifices forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
Bet Dievs novērsās un tos nodeva kalpot tam debess spēkam, itin kā ir rakstīts praviešu grāmatā: vai tu Israēla nams šinīs četrdesmit gados tuksnesī Man esi atnesis kaujamus un citus upurus?
43 You took up the tabernacle of Moloch, the star of your god Rephan, the figures which you made to worship, so I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’
Un jūs esat pieņēmuši to Moloka dzīvokli un sava Dieva, Remvana, zvaigzni, tās bildes, ko esat taisījuši, tās pielūgt; un Es jūs pārcelšu viņpus Bābeles.
44 “Our fathers had the tabernacle of the testimony in the wilderness, even as he who spoke to Moses commanded him to make it according to the pattern that he had seen;
Tā liecības telts bija pie mūsu tēviem tuksnesī, itin kā tas, kas ar Mozu runājis, bija pavēlējis, to taisīt pēc tās priekšzīmes, ko viņš bija redzējis;
45 which also our fathers, in their turn, brought in with Joshua when they entered into the possession of the nations whom God drove out before the face of our fathers to the days of David,
To dabūjuši, mūsu tēvi ar Jozua to arī ieveda tai zemē, kas tiem pagāniem bija, kurus Dievs ir izdzinis mūsu tēvu priekšā līdz Dāvida dienām.
46 who found favor in the sight of God, and asked to find a habitation for the God of Jacob.
Šis žēlastību atrada Dieva priekšā un ilgojās tam Jēkaba Dievam dzīvokli atrast.
47 But Solomon built him a house.
Un Salamans Viņam namu uztaisīja.
48 However, the Most High doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says,
Bet tas Visuaugstākais nedzīvo namos, kas rokām taisīti, itin kā tas pravietis saka:
49 ‘heaven is my throne, and the earth a footstool for my feet. What kind of house will you build me?’ says the Lord. ‘Or what is the place of my rest?
“Debess ir Mans goda krēsls un zeme Manu kāju pamesls; kādu namu jūs Man uztaisīsiet, tā saka Tas Kungs, jeb kura ir Mana dusas vieta?
50 Didn’t my hand make all these things?’
Vai Mana roka nav šo visu taisījusi?”
51 “You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit! As your fathers did, so you do.
Jūs stūrgalvīgie un sirdīs un ausīs neapgraizītie, jūs allažiņ tam Svētam Garam pretī stāvat, tā kā jūsu tēvi, tā arī jūs!
52 Which of the prophets didn’t your fathers persecute? They killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One, of whom you have now become betrayers and murderers.
Kuru no tiem praviešiem jūsu tēvi nav vajājuši? Viņi nokāvuši tos, kas par Tā Taisnā atnākšanu papriekš sludināja; Šim jūs tagad esat palikuši par nodevējiem un slepkavām,
53 You received the law as it was ordained by angels, and didn’t keep it!”
Jūs, kas bauslību caur eņģeļu rokām esat dabūjuši un neesat sargājuši.”
54 Now when they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth.
Kad tie to dzirdēja, tad tas tiem iedūra sirdī un tie sakoda zobus pret viņu.
55 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked up steadfastly into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
Bet viņš, Svēta Gara pilns būdams, skatījās uz debesīm un redzēja Dieva godību un Jēzu stāvam pie Dieva labās rokas,
56 and said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”
Un sacīja: redzi, es debesis redzu atvērtas un To Cilvēka Dēlu stāvam pie Dieva labās rokas.
57 But they cried out with a loud voice and stopped their ears, then rushed at him with one accord.
Bet tie ar skaņu balsi brēkdami aizturēja savas ausis un visi kopā viņam uzmācās virsū,
58 They threw him out of the city and stoned him. The witnesses placed their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul.
Un to izmeta no pilsētas ārā un nomētāja ar akmeņiem; un tie liecinieki savas drēbes nolika pie viena jaunekļa kājām, kam vārds bija Sauls.
59 They stoned Stephen as he called out, saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!”
Un tie ar akmeņiem nomētāja Stefanu, kas sauca un sacīja: Kungs Jēzu, pieņem manu garu!
60 He kneeled down and cried with a loud voice, “Lord, don’t hold this sin against them!” When he had said this, he fell asleep.
Un ceļos mezdamies tas sauca ar skaņu balsi: Kungs, nepielīdzini tiem šo grēku! Un to sacījis viņš aizmiga.
