Pirmā Mozus 44

1 Un viņš pavēlēja tam, kas bija pār viņa namu, un sacīja: pildi to vīru maisus ar labību, cik tie var nest, un liec ikviena naudu viņa maisa virsgalā.

And Joseph commanded the steward of his house, saying: Fill their sacks with corn, as much as they can hold: and put the money of every one in the top of his sack.

2 Un manu biķeri, to sudraba biķeri, liec tam jaunākam maisa virsgalā, arī viņa labības naudu. Un tas darīja pēc Jāzepa vārda, ko viņš bija sacījis.

And in the mouth of the younger’s sack put my silver cup, and the price which he gave for the wheat. And it was so done.

3 Rītā, gaismai austot, tie vīri tapa atlaisti līdz ar saviem ēzeļiem.

And when the morning arose, they were sent away with their asses.

4 Bet tiem no pilsētas izejot un tāli vēl neesot, Jāzeps sacīja savam nama uzraugam: celies, dzenies tiem vīriem pakaļ, un tos panācis saki tiem: kādēļ esat atmaksājuši labu ar ļaunu?

And when they were now departed out of the city, and had gone forward a little way; Joseph sending for the steward of his house, said: Arise, and pursue after the men: and when thou hast overtaken them, say to them: Why have you returned evil for good?

5 Vai šis nav tas, no kā mans kungs dzer? Un no tā viņš mēdz padzert. Jūs esat ļaunu darījuši, to darīdami.

The cup which you have stolen is that in which my lord drinketh, and in which he is wont to divine: you have done a very evil thing.

6 Un tas viņus panāca un viņiem sacīja šos vārdus.

He did as he had commanded him. And having overtaken them, he spoke to them the same words.

7 Tad viņi uz to sacīja: kāpēc mans kungs runā tādus vārdus? Ne mūžam tavi kalpi tādu darbu nedarīs.

And they answered: Why doth our lord speak so, as though thy servants had committed so heinous a fact?

8 Redzi, to naudu, ko esam atraduši savu maisu virsgalā, mēs tev atkal esam atnesuši no Kanaāna zemes, - kā tad mēs zagsim no tava kunga nama sudrabu vai zeltu?

The money, that we found in the top of our sacks, we brought back to thee from the land of Chanaan: how then should it be that we should steal out of thy lord’s house, gold or silver?

9 Pie kura no taviem kalpiem to atradīs, tas lai mirst, un mēs arī gribam būt par vergiem savam kungam.

With whomsoever of thy servants shall be found that which thou seekest, let him die, and we will be the bondmen of my lord.

10 Un viņš sacīja: lai nu arī notiek pēc jūsu vārdiem: pie kura to atradīs, tas būs mans vergs, bet jūs būsiet svabadi.

And he said to them: Let it be according to your sentence: with whomsoever it shall be found, let him be my servant, and you shall be blameless.

11 Un tie steidzās un nocēla ikviens savu maisu zemē, un ikviens atraisīja savu maisu.

Then they speedily took down their sacks to the ground, and every man opened his sack.

12 Un viņš pārmeklēja no tā vecākā iesākdams un pie tā jaunākā beigdams, un tas biķeris tapa atrasts Benjamina maisā.

Which when he had searched, beginning at the eldest and ending at the youngest, he found the cup in Benjamin’s sack.

13 Tad tie saplēsa savas drēbes un apkrāva ikviens savu ēzeli un griezās atpakaļ uz pilsētu.

Then they rent their garments, and loading their asses again, returned into the town.

14 Un Jūda ar saviem brāļiem nāca Jāzepa namā, jo šis tur vēl bija, un tie nometās priekš viņa vaiga pie zemes.

And Juda at the head of his brethren went in to Joseph, (for he was not yet gone out of the place), and they altogether fell down before him on the ground.

15 Un Jāzeps uz tiem sacīja: kas tas par darbu, ko jūs esat darījuši? Vai nezinājāt, ka tāds vīrs, kā es, tiešām to paredzēs?

And he said to them: Why would you do so? know you not that there is no one like me in the science of divining.

16 Tad Jūda sacīja: ko lai sakām savam kungam, ko lai runājam un kā lai taisnojamies? Dievs tavu kalpu noziegumu ir atradis, redzi, mēs esam sava kunga vergi, - tā mēs, kā arī tas, pie kā tas biķeris atrasts.

And Juda said to him: What shall we answer my lord? or what shall we say, or be able justly to allege? God hath found out the iniquity of thy servants: behold, we are all bondmen to my lord, both we, and he with whom the cup was found.

17 Tad viņš sacīja: nemūžam es to nedarīšu; tas vīrs, pie kā tas biķeris atrasts, tam būs man būt par vergu. Bet jūs ejat ar mieru pie sava tēva.

Joseph answered: God forbid that I should do so: he that stole the cup, he shall be my bondman: and go you away free to your father.

18 Tad Jūda pie tā piegāja un sacīja: ak mans kungs! Lūdzams, lai tavs kalps runā kādu vārdu priekš sava kunga ausīm, un neapskaities par savu kalpu, jo tu esi tik augsts kā Faraons.

Then Juda coming nearer, said boldly: I beseech thee, my lord, let thy servant speak a word in thy ears, and be not angry with thy servant: for after Pharao thou art,

19 Mans kungs vaicāja savus kalpus un sacīja: vai jums ir tēvs vai brālis?

My lord. Thou didst ask thy servants the first time: Have you a father or a brother?

20 Tad mēs sacījām savam kungam: mums ir vecs tēvs un viens zēns, kas tam vecumā dzimis, tas jaunākais, un viņa brālis ir miris, un tas ir viens pats no savas mātes atlicis, un viņa tēvs viņu mīļo.

And we answered thee, my lord: We have a father an old man, and a young boy, that was born in his old age; whose brother by the mother is dead: and he alone is left of his mother, and his father loveth him tenderly.

21 Tad tu sacīji saviem kalpiem: atvediet to pie manis, lai manas acis viņu redz.

And thou saidst to thy servants: Bring him hither to me, and I will set my eyes on him.

22 Tad mēs sacījām uz savu kungu: tas zēns savu tēvu nevar atstāt; ja tas atstās savu tēvu, tad šis mirs.

We suggested to my lord: The boy cannot leave his father: for if he leave him, he will die.

23 Tad tu saviem kalpiem sacīji: ja jūsu jaunākais brālis ar jums neatnāk, tad jūs manu vaigu vairs neredzēsiet.

And thou saidst to thy servants: Except your youngest brother come with you, you shall see my face no more.

24 Un kad mēs nācām pie tava kalpa, sava tēva, un viņam sacījām sava kunga vārdus,

Therefore when we were gone up to thy servant our father, we told him all that my lord had said.

25 Tad mūsu tēvs sacīja: noejat atkal, pērciet mums ēdama kādu mazumu.

And our father said: Go again, and buy us a little wheat.

26 Tad sacījām: mēs nevaram noiet: ja mūsu jaunākais brālis mums ir līdz, tad mēs noiesim. Jo mēs nevaram tā vīra vaigu redzēt, ja šis mūsu jaunākais brālis nav mums līdz.

And we said to him: We cannot go: if our youngest brother go down with us, we will set out together: otherwise, without him we dare not see the man’s face.

27 Tad tavs kalps, mans tēvs, mums sacīja: jūs zināt, ka mana sieva man divus dēlus dzemdējusi.

Whereunto he answered: You know that my wife bore me two.

28 Un tas viens ir no manis aizgājis, un es sacīju, tiešām tas ir saplosīts, un es to vairs neesmu redzējis.

One went out, and you said: A beast devoured him: and hitherto he appeareth not.

29 Ja tad jūs arī šo paņemsiet no manām acīm un tam kāda nelaime uzies, tad jūs manus sirmos matus ar sirdēstiem novedīsiet kapā. (Sheol h7585)

If you take this also, and any thing befall him in the way you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow unto hell. (Sheol h7585)

30 Tad nu, kad es nākšu pie tava kalpa, sava tēva, un tas zēns mums nebūs līdz, jo tā tēva dvēsele viņa dvēselei sietin piesieta,

Therefore if I shall go to thy servant our father, and the boy be wanting, (whereas his life dependeth upon the life of him, )

31 Tad notiks, kad tas redzēs, ka tā zēna nav, tad tas mirs, un tavi kalpi novedīs tava kalpa, mana tēva, sirmos matus ar sirdēstiem kapā. (Sheol h7585)

And he shall see that he is not with us, he will die, and thy servants shall bring down his gray hairs with sorrow unto hell. (Sheol h7585)

32 Jo tavs kalps ir galvojis par to zēnu pie sava tēva, un sacījis: ja es viņu tev atpakaļ neatvedīšu, tad visu savu mūžu es gribu būt noziedzīgs sava tēva priekšā.

Let me be thy proper servant, who took him into my trust, and promised, saying: If I bring him not again, I will be guilty of sin against my father for ever.

33 Un nu lai jel tavs kalps tā zēna vietā paliek par sava kunga vergu, un lai tas zēns aiziet ar saviem brāļiem.

Therefore I thy servant will stay instead of the boy in the service of my lord, and let the boy go up with his brethren.

34 Jo kā es varētu iet pie sava tēva, ja tas zēns man nebūtu līdz? - Man būtu jāredz tie sirdēsti, kas manam tēvam uzies.

For I cannot return to my father without the boy, lest I be a witness of the calamity that will oppress my father.
