Pirmā Mozus 28
1 Tad Īzaks aicināja Jēkabu un to svētīja un tam pavēlēja un uz to sacīja: tev nebūs sievu ņemt no Kanaāniešu meitām.
Isaac called Jacob, blessed him, and commanded him, "You must not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan.
2 Celies, ej uz Mezopotamiju, Betuēļa, savas mātes tēva, namā, un ņem sev sievu no turienes, no Lābana, savas mātes brāļa, meitām.
Arise, go to Paddan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father. Take a wife from there from the daughters of Laban, your mother's brother.
3 Un tas visuvarenais Dievs lai tevi svētī un lai tevi dara auglīgu un lai tevi vairo, ka topi par lielu ļaužu pulku.
May El Shaddai bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a company of peoples,
4 Un lai viņš tev dod Ābrahāma svētību, tev un tavam dzimumam ar tevi, ka tu vari iemantot to zemi, kur tu esi piemitis, ko Dievs Ābrahāmam ir devis.
and give you the blessing of Abraham, to you, and to your descendants with you, that you may inherit the land where you travel, which God gave to Abraham."
5 Tā Īzaks atlaida Jēkabu, un tas gāja uz Mezopotamiu pie Lābana, Betuēļa, tā Sīrieša, dēla, Rebekas, Jēkaba un Ēsava mātes, brāļa.
Isaac sent Jacob away. He went to Paddan Aram to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramean, Rebekah's brother, Jacob's and Esau's mother.
6 Kad nu Ēsavs redzēja, ka Īzaks Jēkabu bija svētījis un uz Mezopotamiu sūtījis, no turienes sievu ņemt, un ka viņš to svētījot tam bija pavēlējis sacīdams: tev nebūs sievu ņemt no Kanaāniešu meitām,
Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan Aram, to take him a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he gave him a command, saying, "You must not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan,"
7 Un ka Jēkabs savam tēvam un savai mātei bija paklausījis un uz Mezopotamiu aizgājis,
and that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and left for Paddan Aram.
8 Un kad Ēsavs arī redzēja, ka Īzaks, viņa tēvs, tās Kanaāniešu meitas neieredzēja, -
Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan did not please Isaac, his father.
9 Tad Ēsavs gāja pie Ismaēla un ņēma klāt pie savām sievām sev par sievu Maālatu, Ismaēla, Ābrahāma dēla, meitu, Nebajota māsu. -
Esau went to Ishmael, and took, besides the wives that he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife.
10 Un Jēkabs aizgāja no Bēršebas un gāja uz Hāranu.
Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.
11 Un tam gadījās nonākt kādā vietā, tur viņš palika par nakti, jo saule bija nogājusi; un tas ņēma vienu no tās vietas akmeņiem un lika to sev pagalvē un apgūlās tanī vietā.
He came to a certain place, and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. He took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.
12 Un tas sapņoja, un redzi, trepes bija celtas virs zemes, un viņu virsgals aiztika debesis, un redzi, Dieva eņģeļi pa tām uzkāpa un nokāpa.
And he dreamed. And look, a stairway was set upon the earth, and its top reached to heaven. And look, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
13 Un redzi, Tas Kungs stāvēja virsgalā un sacīja: Es esmu Tas Kungs, tava tēva Ābrahāma Dievs un Īzaka Dievs; to zemi, kur tu guli, Es došu tev un tavam dzimumam.
And God stood above it, and said, "I am the God of Abraham your grandfather, and the God of Isaac. The land on which you are lying I will give to you and to your descendants.
14 Un tavs dzimums būs kā zemes pīšļi, un tu izplētīsies pret vakariem un pret rītiem, uz ziemeļa pusi un uz dienasvidus pusi, un caur tevi un tavu sēklu visas zemes ciltis taps svētītas.
Your descendants will be as the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. And through you and through your descendants will all the families of the earth be blessed.
15 Un redzi, Es esmu ar tevi un pasargāšu tevi visur, kur tu noiesi, un pārvedīšu tevi atkal uz šo zemi; jo Es tevi negribu atstāt, tiekams Es izdarīšu, ko Es uz tevi esmu runājis.
And look, I am with you, and will watch over you wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken of to you."
16 Kad nu Jēkabs no sava miega atmodās, tad tas sacīja: tiešām, Tas Kungs ir šinī vietā, un es to neesmu zinājis.
Then Jacob woke up from his sleep, and said, "Surely God is in this place, and I did not know it."
17 Un viņš bijās un sacīja: cik bijājama ir šī vieta! Še ir tiešām Dieva nams un še ir debesu vārti.
He was afraid, and said, "How awesome is this place. This is none other than God's house, and this is the gate of heaven."
18 Un Jēkabs cēlās rītā agri un ņēma to akmeni, kas tam bija pagalvē bijis, un to uzcēla par zīmi un tam uzlēja eļļu virsū.
And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up as a standing-stone, and poured oil on top of it.
19 Un viņš nosauca tās vietas vārdu Bēteli (Dieva nams); bet papriekš tai pilsētai bija Lūza vārds.
He called the name of that place Bethel, though previously the city was named Luz.
20 Un Jēkabs solīdamies solījās un sacīja: ja Dievs Tas Kungs būs ar mani un mani pasargās uz šā ceļa, ko es staigāju, un man dos maizi ēst un drēbes ģērbties,
Then Jacob made a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and will watch over me on this journey I am taking, and will give me food to eat, and clothing to put on,
21 Un man liks ar mieru pāriet sava tēva namā, tad Tas Kungs lai man ir par Dievu.
so that I return to my father's house safely, then he will be my God,
22 Un šim akmenim, ko esmu uzcēlis par zīmi, būs tapt par Dieva namu, un no visa, ko Tu man dosi, es Tev došu desmito tiesu.
and this stone, which I have set up as a standing-stone, will be God's house. Of all that you will give me I will surely give the tenth to you."
