Genesis 33 (GLK)

1Un Jēkabs pacēla savas acis un skatījās, un redzi, Ēsavs nāca un četrsimt vīri līdz ar to; tad viņš piedalīja tos bērnus pie Leas un pie Rahēles un pie tām divām kalponēm,Now Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming toward him with four hundred men. So he divided the children among Leah, Rachel, and the two maidservants.

2Un lika tās kalpones un viņu bērnus priekšā, un Leū un viņas bērnus tiem pakaļ, un Rahēli un Jāzepu visu pēc.He put the maidservants and their children in front, Leah and her children next, and Rachel and Joseph at the rear.

3Un viņš pats gāja tiem priekšā un klanījās septiņreiz pie zemes, tiekams viņš tapa klāt pie sava brāļa.But Jacob himself went on ahead and bowed to the ground seven times as he approached his brother.

4Un Ēsavs tecēja tam pretī un to apkampa un metās viņam ap kaklu un to skūpstīja, un tie raudāja.Esau, however, ran to him and embraced him, threw his arms around his neck, and kissed him. And they both wept.

5Un viņš pacēla savas acis un redzēja tās sievas un tos bērnus un sacīja: kas šie tev ir? Un tas sacīja: šie ir tie bērni, ar ko Dievs tavu kalpu svētījis.When Esau looked up and saw the women and children, he asked, “Who are these with you?” Jacob answered, “These are the children God has graciously given your servant.”

6Tad tās kalpones piegāja, viņas un viņu bērni, un klanījāsThen the maidservants and their children approached and bowed down.

7Un Lea piegāja arīdzan un viņas bērni, un klanījās, un pēc nāca Jāzeps un Rahēle un klanījās.Leah and her children also approached and bowed down, and then Joseph and Rachel approached and bowed down.

8Un viņš sacīja: kas viss tas tev par pulku, ko es esmu sastapis? Un tas sacīja: lai es žēlastību atrastu tavās acīs, mans kungs.“What do you mean by sending this whole company to meet me?” asked Esau. “To find favor in your sight, my lord,” Jacob answered.

9Un Ēsavs sacīja: man pašam diezgan, brāli; paturi, kas tev ir.“I already have plenty, my brother,” Esau replied. “Keep what belongs to you.”

10Bet Jēkabs sacīja: ak ne! Lūdzams, ja es žēlastību esmu atradis tavās acīs, tad ņem manu dāvanu no manas rokas; jo tāpēc es tavu vaigu esmu redzējis, tā kā redz Dieva vaigu, un tu mani mīļi esi saņēmis.But Jacob insisted, “No, please! If I have found favor in your sight, then receive this gift from my hand. For indeed, I have seen your face, and it is like seeing the face of God, since you have received me favorably.

11Pieņem lūdzams manu svētību, kas tev ir pievesta, jo Dievs mani ar to svētījis, un man ir viss papilnam. Un tas viņu spieda, ka viņš to ņēma.Please accept my gift that was brought to you, because God has been gracious to me and I have all I need.” So Jacob pressed him until he accepted.

12Un viņš sacīja: nāc, ejam projām, es iešu tev līdzi.Then Esau said, “Let us be on our way, and I will go ahead of you.”

13Bet tas uz viņu sacīja: mans kungs zin, ka man sīki bērni un avis un teļu mātes; kad tos tikai vienu dienu pārdzītu, tad man visi lopiņi apmirtu.But Jacob replied, “My lord knows that the children are frail, and I must care for sheep and cattle that are nursing their young. If they are driven hard for even a day, all the animals will die.

14Ej, kungs, lūdzams savam kalpam papriekš, un es iešu ceļā lēniņām, tā kā mani lopiņi spēj, kas manā priekšā, un tā kā tie bērni spēj, tiekams es nāku pie sava kunga Seīrā.Please let my lord go ahead of his servant. I will continue on slowly, at a comfortable pace for the livestock and children, until I come to my lord at Seir.”

15Un Ēsavs sacīja: tad nu es atstāšu pie tevis kādus no tiem ļaudīm, kas pie manis. Un tas sacīja: kam tā vajag? Lai žēlastību atrodu sava kunga acīs.“Let me leave some of my people with you,” Esau said. But Jacob replied, “Why do that? Let me find favor in the sight of my lord.”

16Un Ēsavs tanī dienā griezās atpakaļ pa savu ceļu uz Seīru.So that day Esau started on his way back to Seir,

17Bet Jēkabs nogāja uz Sukotu un uzcēla sev namu, un taisīja laidarus saviem lopiem; tādēļ viņš tās vietas vārdu nosauca Sukotu (laidari).but Jacob went on to Succoth, where he built a house for himself and shelters for his livestock; that is why the place was called Succoth.

18Un Jēkabs nonāca sveiks vesels Šehemas pilsētā, kas ir Kanaāna zemē, no Mezopotamijas nākdams, un apmetās tās pilsētas priekšā.After Jacob had come from Paddan-aram, he arrived safely at the city of Shechem in the land of Canaan, and he camped just outside the city.

19Un viņš pirka vienu zemes gabalu no Hamora, Šehema tēva, bērniem, par simts sudraba gabaliem, un uzcēla tur savu dzīvokliAnd the plot of ground where he pitched his tent, he purchased from the sons of Hamor, Shechem’s father, for a hundred pieces of silver.

20Un uztaisīja tur altāri un to nosauca: tas Stiprais Dievs ir Israēla Dievs.There he set up an altar and called it El-Elohe-Israel.
