Ezra 3
1 And the seventh month came on, and the children of Israel [were] in their cities, and the people assembled as one man at Jerusalem.
Ko je prišel sedmi mesec in so bili Izraelovi otroci v mestih, se je ljudstvo kakor en človek zbralo skupaj v Jeruzalemu.
2 Then stood up Jesus the [son] of Josedec, and his brethren the priests, and Zorobabel the [son] of Salathiel, and his brethren, and they built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer upon it whole burnt offerings, according to the things that were written in the law of Moses the man of God.
Potem je vstal Jocadákov sin Ješúa in njegovi bratje duhovniki in Šealtiélov sin Zerubabél in njegovi bratje in zgradili so oltar Izraelovemu Bogu, da na njem darujejo žgalne daritve, kakor je to zapisano v postavi Mojzesa, Božjega moža.
3 And they set up the altar on its place, for there was a terror upon them because of the people of the lands: and the whole burnt offerings was offered up upon it to the Lord morning and evening.
Nad njegovimi podnožji so postavili oltar, kajti strah je bil nad njimi zaradi ljudstva tistih dežel. Na njem so darovali žgalne daritve Gospodu, torej žgalne daritve zjutraj in zvečer.
4 And they kept the feast of tabernacles, according to that which was written, and [offered] whole burnt offerings daily in number according to the ordinance, the exact daily rate.
Imeli so tudi šotorski praznik, kakor je ta zapisan in darovali so dnevne žgalne daritve po številu, glede na navado, kakor je zahtevala vsakodnevna dolžnost.
5 And after this the perpetual whole burnt offering, and [offering] for the season of new moon, and for all the hallowed feasts to the Lord, and for every one that offered a free will offering to the Lord.
Potem so darovali nenehno žgalno daritev, tako na mlaje in ob vseh določenih Gospodovih praznikih, [tisti], ki so bili posvečeni in od vsakega, ki je voljno daroval prostovoljno daritev Gospodu.
6 On the first day of the seventh month they began to offer whole burnt offerings to the Lord: but the foundation of the house of the Lord was not laid.
Od prvega dne sedmega meseca so začeli darovati žgalne daritve Gospodu. Toda temelj Gospodovega templja še ni bil položen.
7 And they gave money to the stone-hewers and carpenters, and meat and drink, and oil, to the Sidonians, and Tyrians, to bring cedar trees from Libanus to the sea of Joppa, according to the grant of Cyrus king of the Persians to them.
Denar so dajali tudi zidarjem in tesarjem; in hrano, pijačo in olje tistim iz Sidóna in tistim iz Tira, da iz Libanona pripeljejo cedrova drevesa k morju pri Jopi, glede na dovoljenje, ki so ga imeli od perzijskega kralja Kira.
8 And in the second year of their coming to the house of God in Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zorobabel the [son] of Salathiel, and Jesus the [son] of Josedec, and the rest of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all who came from the captivity to Jerusalem, and they appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, over the workmen in the house of the Lord.
Torej v drugem letu svojega prihoda k Božji hiši v Jeruzalemu, v drugem mesecu, so začeli Šealtiélov sin Zerubabél, Jocadákov sin Ješúa in preostanek izmed njihovih bratov duhovnikov in Lévijevcev in vsi tisti, ki so prišli iz ujetništva v Jeruzalem in določili so Lévijevce, od dvajset let stare in navzgor, da poženejo delo Gospodove hiše.
9 And Jesus and his sons and his brethren stood, Cadmiel and his sons the sons of Juda, over them that wrought the works in the house of God: the sons of Enadad, their sons and their brethren the Levites.
Potem so skupaj vstali Ješúa, s svojimi sinovi in svojimi brati, Kadmiél in njegovi sinovi, Judovi sinovi, da postavijo delavce v Božji hiši, Henadádove sinove z njihovimi sinovi in njihovimi brati Lévijevci.
10 And they laid a foundation for building the house of the Lord: and the priests in their robes stood with trumpets and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the Lord, according to the order of David king of Israel.
Ko so graditelji položili temelj Gospodovemu templju, so postavili duhovnike v njihovi obleki s trobentami in Lévijevce, Asáfove sinove, s cimbalami, da hvalijo Gospoda, po odredbi Izraelovega kralja Davida.
11 And they answered [each other] with praise and thanksgiving to the Lord, [saying], For [it is] good, for his mercy to Israel [endures] for ever. And all the people shouted with a loud voice to praise the Lord at the laying the foundation of the house of the Lord.
Peli so skupaj po skupini v slavljenju in zahvaljevanju Gospodu, ker je dober, kajti njegovo usmiljenje do Izraela traja večno. In vse ljudstvo je vriskalo z močnim vzklikanjem, ko so hvalili Gospoda, ker je bil položen temelj Gospodove hiše.
12 But many of the priests and the Levites, and the elder men, heads of families, who had seen the former house on its foundation, and [who saw] this house with their eyes, wept with a loud voice: but the multitude shouted with joy to raise a song.
Vendar pa so mnogi izmed duhovnikov in Lévijevcev in vodij očetov, ki so bili starodavni ljudje, ki so videli prvo hišo, ko so bili temelji te hiše položeni pred njihovimi očmi, jokali z močnim glasom in mnogi so zaradi radosti na glas vzklikali,
13 And the people did not distinguish the voice of the glad shout from the voice of the weeping of the people: for the people shouted with a loud voice, and the voice was heard even from afar off.
tako da ljudstvo ni moglo razločiti glasu radostnega vzklikanja od glasu jokanja ljudstva, kajti ljudstvo je vzklikalo z glasnim vriskom in zvok je bilo slišati daleč proč.
