Genesis 39

1 Ja Joosep viidi alla Egiptusesse; ja egiptlane Pootifar, vaarao hoovkondlane, ihukaitsepealik, ostis tema ismaeliitidelt, kes olid ta sinna toonud.

2 Aga Issand oli Joosepiga ja tema oli mees, kellel kõik asjad korda läksid; ja ta elas oma isanda, egiptlase kojas.

3 Ka tema isand nägi, et Issand oli temaga ja et kõik, mis ta tegi, laskis Issand tema käes korda minna.

4 Ja Joosep leidis armu tema silmis ning teenis teda; ja ta pani tema oma koja üle, ja kõik, mis tal oli, ta andis tema kätte.

5 Ja sellest ajast peale, kui ta oli pannud tema oma koja üle, ja kõige üle, mis tal oli, Issand õnnistas egiptlase koda Joosepi pärast, ja Issanda õnnistus oli kõigega, mis tal oli kojas ja väljal.

6 Ja ta jättis kõik, mis tal oli, Joosepi kätte ega teadnud millestki, kui ainult leivast, mida ta sõi. Joosep oli jumekas ja ilusa välimusega.

7 Nende asjaolude tõttu sündis, et ta isanda naine Joosepile silma heitis ja ütles: 'Maga mu juures!'

8 Aga ta keeldus ja ütles oma isanda naisele: 'Vaata, mu isand ise ei tea, mis kojas on, ja kõik, mis tal on, ta on andnud minu kätte.

9 Ei ole ükski selles kojas suurem minust ja tema ei ole mulle keelanud midagi muud kui sind, sest sa oled tema naine. Kuidas tohiksin siis teha seda suurt kurja ja pattu oma Jumala vastu?'

10 Ja kuigi naine rääkis Joosepile iga päev, ei kuulanud see teda, et ta magaks ta kõrval ja oleks ta juures.

11 Aga ühel päeval, kui Joosep tuli koju oma toimetusi tegema ja ühtegi inimest pererahvast ei olnud kodus,

12 haaras ta kinni tema kuuest, öeldes: 'Maga mu juures!' Aga Joosep jättis oma kuue tema kätte, põgenes ja läks õue.

13 Ja kui naine nägi, et ta oma kuue oli jätnud tema kätte ja oli põgenenud õue,

14 siis ta hüüdis pererahvast ja rääkis neile, öeldes: 'Näete, ta on toonud meie juurde heebrea mehe meid ära naerma! Ta tuli mu juurde, et minuga magada, aga ma hüüdsin suure häälega,

15 ja kui ta kuulis, et ma häält tõstsin ja hüüdsin, siis ta jättis oma kuue mu juurde, põgenes ja läks õue.'

16 Ja ta pani tema kuue enese kõrvale seniks, kui ta isand koju tuli.

17 Ja ta rääkis temale needsamad sõnad, öeldes: 'Heebrea sulane, kelle sa oled meie juurde toonud, tuli mu juurde mind ära naerma.

18 Aga kui ma häält tõstsin ja hüüdsin, siis ta jättis oma kuue mu juurde ja põgenes õue.'

19 Ja kui ta isand kuulis oma naise jutustust, mida see temale rääkis, öeldes: 'Nõndaviisi on su sulane minuga teinud', siis ta viha süttis põlema.

20 Ja Joosepi isand võttis tema ja pani vangihoonesse, sinna paika, kus kuninga vange kinni peeti. Siis oli ta seal vangihoones.

21 Aga Issand oli Joosepiga ja pööras tema poole oma helduse ning tegi, et ta sai vangihoone ülema soosikuks.

22 Ja vangihoone ülem andis Joosepi kätte kõik vangid, kes olid vangihoones, ja kõik, mis seal pidi tehtama, tegi tema.

23 Vangihoone ülem ei vaadanud millegi järele, mis oli tema käes, sest Issand oli temaga ja mis ta tegi, Issand laskis korda minna.

4974. And his lord saw that Jehovah was with him. That this signifies that it was perceived in natural good that the Divine was therein, is evident from the signification of “seeing,” as being understanding and perceiving (n. 2150, 3764, 4339, 4567, 4723); and from the signification of “lord,” as being good (as shown just above, n. 4973), here natural good, because it is an Egyptian who is here the “lord.” That the Divine was therein, is signified by Jehovah being with him (as above, n. 4971).

Genesis 29

Estudio

   

1 Then Jacob went on his journey, and came to the land of the children of the east.

2 He looked, and behold, a well in the field, and, behold, three flocks of sheep lying there by it. For out of that well they watered the flocks. The stone on the well's mouth was large.

3 There all the flocks were gathered. They rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the sheep, and put the stone again on the well's mouth in its place.

4 Jacob said to them, "My relatives, where are you from?" They said, "We are from Haran."

5 He said to them, "Do you know Laban, the son of Nahor?" They said, "We know him."

6 He said to them, "Is it well with him?" They said, "It is well. See, Rachel, his daughter, is coming with the sheep."

7 He said, "Behold, it is still the middle of the day, not time to gather the livestock together. Water the sheep, and go and feed them."

8 They said, "We can't, until all the flocks are gathered together, and they roll the stone from the well's mouth. Then we water the sheep."

9 While he was yet speaking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she kept them.

10 It happened, when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban, his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban, his mother's brother, that Jacob went near, and rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.

11 Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up his voice, and wept.

12 Jacob told Rachel that he was her father's brother, and that he was Rebekah's son. She ran and told her father.

13 It happened, when Laban heard the news of Jacob, his sister's son, that he ran to meet Jacob, and embraced him, and kissed him, and brought him to his house. Jacob told Laban all these things.

14 Laban said to him, "Surely you are my bone and my flesh." He lived with him for a month.

15 Laban said to Jacob, "Because you are my brother, should you therefore serve me for nothing? Tell me, what will your wages be?"

16 Laban had two daughters. The name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.

17 Leah's eyes were weak, but Rachel was beautiful in form and attractive.

18 Jacob loved Rachel. He said, "I will serve you seven years for Rachel, your younger daughter."

19 Laban said, "It is better that I give her to you, than that I should give her to another man. Stay with me."

20 Jacob served seven years for Rachel. They seemed to him but a few days, for the love he had for her.

21 Jacob said to Laban, "Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in to her."

22 Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made a feast.

23 It happened in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter, and brought her to him. He went in to her.

24 Laban gave Zilpah his handmaid to his daughter Leah for a handmaid.

25 It happened in the morning that, behold, it was Leah. He said to Laban, "What is this you have done to me? Didn't I serve with you for Rachel? Why then have you deceived me?"

26 Laban said, "It is not done so in our place, to give the younger before the firstborn.

27 Fulfill the week of this one, and we will give you the other also for the service which you will serve with me yet seven other years."

28 Jacob did so, and fulfilled her week. He gave him Rachel his daughter as wife.

29 Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah, his handmaid, to be her handmaid.

30 He went in also to Rachel, and he loved also Rachel more than Leah, and served with him yet seven other years.

31 Yahweh saw that Leah was hated, and he opened her womb, but Rachel was barren.

32 Leah conceived, and bore a son, and she named him Reuben. For she said, "Because Yahweh has looked at my affliction. For now my husband will love me."

33 She conceived again, and bore a son, and said, "Because Yahweh has heard that I am hated, he has therefore given me this son also." She named him Simeon.

34 She conceived again, and bore a son. Said, "Now this time will my husband be joined to me, because I have borne him three sons." Therefore was his name called Levi.

35 She conceived again, and bore a son. She said, "This time will I praise Yahweh." Therefore she named him Judah. Then she stopped bearing.
