Pirmā Mozus 20

1 Un Ābrahāms no turienes aizgāja uz to zemi pret dienasvidus pusi un dzīvoja starp Kādeš un Šur un piemita Ģerarā.

Abraham removed from thence to the south country, and dwelt between Cades and Sur, and sojourned in Gerara.

2 Un Ābrahāms sacīja no Sāras, savas sievas: tā ir mana māsa; tad Abimelehs, Ģeraras ķēniņš, sūtīja un paņēma Sāru.

And he said of Sara his wife: She is my sister. So Abimelech the king of Gerara sent, and took her.

3 Bet Dievs nāca pie Abimeleha sapnī nakts laikā un uz to sacīja: redzi, tev jāmirst tās sievas dēļ, ko tu esi ņēmis, jo tā ir laulāta sieva.

And God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and he said to him: Lo thou shalt die for the woman thou hast taken: for she hath a husband.

4 Bet Abimelehs viņu vēl nebija aizskāris; tad tas sacīja: Kungs, vai Tu arī taisnus ļaudis nonāvēsi?

Now Abimelech had not touched her, and he said: Lord, wilt thou slay a nation, that is ignorant and just?

5 Vai viņš man nav sacījis: tā ir mana māsa? Un viņa pati arīdzan sacījusi: tas ir mans brālis. Es to esmu darījis vientiesīgu sirdi un šķīstām rokām.

Did not he say to me: She is my sister: and she say, He is my brother? in the simplicity of my heart, and cleanness of my hands have I done this.

6 Tad Dievs sapnī uz to sacīja: Es arīdzan zinu, ka to esi darījis savā sirds vientiesībā, un Es tevi arī esmu atturējis, ka tu pret Mani negrēko; tādēļ Es tev neesmu ļāvis viņu aizskart.

And God said to him: And I know that thou didst it with a sincere heart: and therefore I withheld thee from sinning against me, and I suffered thee not to touch her.

7 Un nu, atdodi tam vīram to sievu, jo tas ir pravietis, un lai viņš priekš tevis lūdz, tad tu dzīvosi; bet ja tu to neatdosi, tad zini, ka tu mirdams mirsi, un viss, kas tev pieder.

Now therefore restore the man his wife, for he is a prophet: and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live: but if thou wilt not restore her, know that thou shalt surely die, thou and all that are thine.

8 Un no rīta agri Abimelehs cēlās un aicināja visus savus kalpus un runāja visus šos vārdus priekš viņu ausīm, un tie vīri bijājās ļoti.

And Abimelech forthwith rising up in the night, called all his servants: and spoke all these words in their hearing, and all the men were exceedingly afraid.

9 Un Abimelehs aicināja Ābrahāmu un uz to sacīja: kam tu mums to esi darījis, un ko es pret tevi esmu grēkojis, ka tu par mani un par manu valsti vedis tik lielus grēkus? Tu man tā esi darījis, kā nepieklājās darīt.

And Abimelech called also for Abraham, and said to him: What hast thou done to us? what have we offended thee in, that thou hast brought upon me and upon my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done to us what thou oughtest not to do.

10 Un Abimelehs sacīja uz Ābrahāmu: ko tu esi nodomājis to darīdams?

And again he expostulated with him, and said, What sawest thou, that thou hast done this?

11 Tad Ābrahāms sacīja: es domāju, tiešām Dieva bijāšanas nav šinī vietā, un tie mani nokaus manas sievas dēļ.

Abraham answered: I thought with myself, saying: Perhaps there is not the fear of God in this place: and they will kill me for the sake of my wife:

12 Un tā arī tiešām ir mana māsa, mana tēva meita, bet tik ne manas mātes meita; un tā ir tapusi mana sieva.

Howbeit, otherwise also she is truly my sister, the daughter of my father, and not the daughter of my mother, and I took her to wife.

13 Un pēc tam, kad Dievs man licis iziet no mana tēva nama, tad es uz to sacīju: lai šī ir tā žēlastība, ko tu pie manis darīsi: visur, kurp nāksim saki no manis: tas ir mans brālis.

And after God brought me out of my father’s house, I said to her: Thou shalt do me this kindness: In every place, to which we shall come, thou shalt say that I am thy brother.

14 Tad Abimelehs ņēma avis un vēršus un kalpus un kalpones un deva tos Ābrahāmam un atdeva tam arī Sāru, viņa sievu.

And Abimelech took sheep and oxen, and servants and handmaids, and gave to Abraham: and restored to him Sara, his wife.

15 Un Abimelehs sacīja: redzi, mana zeme ir tavā priekšā; dzīvo, kur tavām acīm patīk.

And said: The land is before you, dwell wheresoever it shall please thee.

16 Un uz Sāru viņš sacīja: redzi, es tavam brālim esmu devis tūkstoš sudraba gabalus, un, redzi, lai tas tev ir par acu apsegu priekš visiem, kas pie tevis un visur, un tu esi taisnota.

And to Sara he said: Behold I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver: this shall serve thee for a covering of thy eyes to all that are with thee, and whithersoever thou shalt go: and remember thou wast taken.

17 Un Ābrahāms pielūdza Dievu, tad Dievs dziedināja Abimeleku un viņa sievu un viņa kalpones, ka tās dzemdēja.

And when Abraham prayed, God healed Abimelech and his wife, and his handmaids, and they bore children:

18 Jo Tas Kungs Abimeleha namā bija cieti aizslēdzis visas mātes, Sāras, Ābrahāma sievas, dēļ.

For the Lord had closed up every womb of the house of Abimelech on account of Sara, Abraham’s wife.
