Exodus 2
1 And there went a man of the house of Levi, and took to wife a daughter of Levi.
Un viens vīrs no Levja nama nogāja un apņēma Levja meitu.
2 And the woman conceived, and bore a son; and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months.
Un tā sieva tapa grūta un dzemdēja dēlu. Kad nu tā redzēja viņu esam skaistu, tad tā viņu paslēpa trīs mēnešus.
3 And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch; and she put the child therein, and laid it in the flags by the river's brink.
Bet kad viņu vairs nevarēja paslēpt, tad tā ņēma priekš viņa niedru šķirstiņu un to aptraipīja ar piķi un sveķiem, ielika to bērnu tur iekšā, un to nolika niedrēs upmalā.
4 And his sister stood afar off, to know what would be done to him.
Un viņa māsa stāvēja no tālienes, nolūkot, kas tam notiktu.
5 And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe in the river; and her maidens walked along by the river-side; and she saw the ark among the flags, and sent her handmaid to fetch it.
Tad Faraona meita nonāca upē mazgāties, un viņas jumpravas staigāja upes malā. Un viņa redzēja to šķirstu niedru vidū un sūtīja savu kalponi un lika to atnest.
6 And she opened it, and saw it, even the child; and behold a boy that wept. And she had compassion on him, and said: 'This is one of the Hebrews' children.'
Kad nu viņa to atvēra, tad tā redzēja to bērniņu, un raugi, tas puisēns raudāja, un viņa par to apžēlojās un sacīja: šis ir viens no tiem Ebreju bērniņiem.
7 Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter: 'Shall I go and call thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee?'
Tad viņa māsa sacīja uz Faraona meitu: vai man būs iet un tev aicināt zīdītāju no Ebreju sievām, kas tev to bērnu var zīdināt?
8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her: 'Go.' And the maiden went and called the child's mother.
Un Faraona meita uz to sacīja: ej! Un tā meitene nogāja un aicināja tā bērniņa māti.
9 And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her: 'Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages.' And the woman took the child, and nursed it.
Un Faraona meita uz viņu sacīja: ņem šo bērniņu un zīdi man to, es tev došu tavu algu. Un tā sieva ņēma to bērniņu un to zīdīja.
10 And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses, and said: 'Because I drew him out of the water.'
Un kad tas bērniņš bija paaudzis, tad viņa to noveda pie Faraona meitas, un tas viņai tapa par dēlu, un tā viņa vārdu nosauca Mozu (izvilktais), sacīdama: tāpēc, ka es to no ūdens esmu izvilkusi.
11 And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown up, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens; and he saw an Egyptian smiting a Hebrew, one of his brethren.
Un notika tanīs dienās, kad Mozus bija uzaudzis, tad viņš izgāja pie saviem brāļiem un apraudzīja viņu grūtumu un redzēja ēģiptiešu vīru sitam vienu Ebreju vīru, vienu no viņa brāļiem.
12 And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he smote the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.
Un viņš skatījās šurp un turp un redzēdams, ka tur neviena nebija, viņš to Ēģiptieti nosita un to apslēpa smiltīs.
13 And he went out the second day, and, behold, two men of the Hebrews were striving together; and he said to him that did the wrong: 'Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow?'
Un viņš izgāja otrā dienā un redzi, divi Ebreju vīri bārās; un viņš sacīja uz to vainīgo: kāpēc tu siti savu tuvāko?
14 And he said: 'Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us? thinkest thou to kill me, as thou didst kill the Egyptian?' And Moses feared, and said: 'Surely the thing is known.'
Tad tas sacīja: kas tevi mums licis par virsnieku jeb soģi? Vai tu tā saki, mani arīdzan gribēdams nokaut, kā tu to Ēģiptieti esi nokāvis? Tad Mozus bijās un sacīja: patiesi šī lieta ir tapusi zināma.
15 Now when Pharaoh heard this thing, he sought to slay Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh, and dwelt in the land of Midian; and he sat down by a well.
Kad nu Faraons šo lietu dzirdēja, tad viņš meklēja Mozu nokaut, un Mozus bēga no Faraona un mita Midijanas zemē un apmetās pie vienas akas.
16 Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters; and they came and drew water, and filled the troughs to water their father's flock.
Un Midijanas priesterim bija septiņas meitas; tās nāca smelt un pildīja ūdens siles, dzirdināt sava tēva avis.
17 And the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.
Bet tie gani nāca un tās nodzina, un Mozus cēlās tām palīgā un dzirdināja viņu avis.
18 And when they came to Reuel their father, he said: 'How is it that ye are come so soon to-day?'
Un kad tās nāca pie sava tēva Reguēļa, tad viņš sacīja: kā tad jūs šodien tik drīz esat pārnākušas?
19 And they said: 'An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds, and moreover he drew water for us, and watered the flock.'
Tad tās sacīja: viens ēģiptiešu vīrs mūs izglābis no to ganu rokas, un viņš mums arī smēlis un dzirdinājis mūsu avis.
20 And he said unto his daughters: 'And where is he? Why is it that ye have left the man? call him, that he may eat bread.'
Un tas sacīja uz savām meitām: kur tad viņš ir? Kāpēc jūs šo vīru tur esat atstājušas. Aicinājiet to, maizi ēst.
21 And Moses was content to dwell with the man; and he gave Moses Zipporah his daughter.
Un Mozum bija pa prātam, palikt pie tā vīra, un tas deva Mozum savu meitu Ciporu par sievu.
22 And she bore a son, and he called his name Gershom; for he said: 'I have been a stranger in a strange land.'
Tā viņam dzemdēja dēlu, un tas viņa vārdu nosauca Geršomu (piemitējs), sacīdams: es esmu piemitējs svešā zemē.
23 And it came to pass in the course of those many days that the king of Egypt died; and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.
Un ilgu laiku pēc tam Ēģiptes ķēniņš nomira un Israēla bērni nopūtās un brēca par to kalpošanu, un viņu brēkšana par to kalpošanu uzkāpa pie Dieva.
24 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
Un Dievs dzirdēja viņu nopūtas, un pieminēja Savu derību ar Ābrahāmu, Īzaku un Jēkabu.
25 And God saw the children of Israel, and God took cognizance of them.
Un Dievs uzlūkoja Israēla bērnus un Dievs ņēma to vērā.
