Ezra 6
1 Then Darius the king made a decree, and search was made in the house of the rolls, where the treasures were laid up in Babylon.
Potem je kralj Darej izdal odlok in narejena je bila preiskava v hiši zvitkov, kjer so bili v Babilonu shranjeni zakladi.
2 And there was found at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of the Medes, a roll, and therein was a record thus written:
In tam pri Ahmeti, v palači, ki je v provinci Medijcev, je bil najden zvitek in v njem je bil tako zapisan zapis:
3 In the first year of Cyrus the king the same Cyrus the king made a decree concerning the house of God at Jerusalem, Let the house be builded, the place where they offered sacrifices, and let the foundations thereof be strongly laid; the height thereof threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof threescore cubits;
›V prvem letu kralja Kira je isti kralj Kir izdal odlok glede Božje hiše v Jeruzalemu: ›Naj bo hiša zgrajena, kraj, kjer so darovali daritve in naj bodo njeni temelji trdno položeni. Njena višina [naj bo] šestdeset in njena širina šestdeset komolcev,
4 With three rows of great stones, and a row of new timber: and let the expenses be given out of the king’s house:
s tremi vrstami velikih kamnov in vrsto iz novih tramov in stroški naj bodo poravnani iz kraljeve hiše.
5 And also let the golden and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took forth out of the temple which is at Jerusalem, and brought unto Babylon, be restored, and brought again unto the temple which is at Jerusalem, every one to his place, and place them in the house of God.
Tudi zlate in srebrne posode Božje hiše, ki jih je Nebukadnezar vzel iz templja, ki je v Jeruzalemu in jih prenesel v Babilon, naj bodo povrnjene in ponovno prinesene v tempelj, ki je v Jeruzalemu, vsako na svoj kraj in [naj] jih prinesejo v Božjo hišo.‹
6 Now therefore, Tatnai, governor beyond the river, Shethar–boznai, and your companions the Apharsachites, which are beyond the river, be ye far from thence:
›Sedaj torej Tatenáj, voditelj onkraj reke, Šetár Boznáj in vaši družabniki, Afarsahejci, ki so onkraj reke, bodite daleč od tam.
7 Let the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God in his place.
Pustite delo te Božje hiše. Naj voditelj Judov in starešine Judov zgradijo to Božjo hišo na njenem kraju.
8 Moreover I make a decree what ye shall do to the elders of these Jews for the building of this house of God: that of the king’s goods, even of the tribute beyond the river, forthwith expenses be given unto these men, that they be not hindered.
Poleg tega izdajam odlok, kaj boste naredili starešinam teh Judov za zgradbo te Božje hiše, da bodo od kraljevih dobrin, celó od davka onkraj reke, nemudoma izplačani stroški tem možem, da ne bodo ovirani.
9 And that which they have need of, both young bullocks, and rams, and lambs, for the burnt offerings of the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the appointment of the priests which are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail:
In to, kar potrebujejo, tako mlade bikce kakor ovne in jagnjeta za žgalne daritve Bogu nebes, pšenico, sol, vino in olje, glede na določilo duhovnikov, ki so v Jeruzalemu, naj jim bo to čisto gotovo dano dan za dnem,
10 That they may offer sacrifices of sweet savours unto the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king, and of his sons.
da bodo lahko darovali žrtvovanje prijetnih vonjav Bogu nebes in molili za življenje kralja in njegovih sinov.
11 Also I have made a decree, that whosoever shall alter this word, let timber be pulled down from his house, and being set up, let him be hanged thereon; and let his house be made a dunghill for this.
Prav tako sem izdal odlok, da kdorkoli bo predrugačil to besedo, naj bo tram izvlečen dol iz njegove hiše in naj bo postavljen pokonci; naj bo tisti obešen nanj in naj bo zaradi tega njegova hiša narejena za gnojišče.
12 And the God that hath caused his name to dwell there destroy all kings and people, that shall put to their hand to alter and to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree; let it be done with speed.
In Bog, ki je svojemu imenu storil, da prebiva tam, naj uniči vse kralje in ljudstvo, ki bo svojo roko položilo, da spremenijo in uničijo to Božjo hišo, ki je v Jeruzalemu. Jaz, Darej, sem zapovedal ta odlok. Naj bo hitro uresničen.‹
13 Then Tatnai, governor on this side the river, Shethar–boznai, and their companions, according to that which Darius the king had sent, so they did speedily.
Potem so Tatenáj, voditelj na tej strani reke, Šetár Boznáj in njihovi družabniki tako hitro storili glede na to, kar je kralj Darej poslal.
14 And the elders of the Jews builded, and they prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they builded, and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the commandment of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.
Starešine Judov so gradili in uspevali po prerokovanju prerokov Ageja in Idójevega sina Zaharija. Gradili so in to končali glede na zapoved Izraelovega Boga in glede zapovedi Kira, Dareja in Artakserksa, kralja Perzije.
15 And this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
Ta hiša je bila končana na tretji dan meseca adárja, ki je bil v šestem letu kraljevanja kralja Dareja.
16 And the children of Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy,
Izraelovi otroci, duhovniki, Lévijevci in preostanek otrok iz ujetništva, so z radostjo praznovali posvetitev te Božje hiše.
17 And offered at the dedication of this house of God an hundred bullocks, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve he goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
Pri posvetitvi te Božje hiše so darovali sto bikcev, dvesto ovnov, štiristo jagnjet. In za daritev za greh za ves Izrael dvanajst kozlov, glede na število Izraelovih rodov.
18 And they set the priests in their divisions, and the Levites in their courses, for the service of God, which is at Jerusalem; as it is written in the book of Moses.
Postavili so duhovnike v svojih oddelkih in Lévijevce po svojih skupinah za Božjo službo, ki je v Jeruzalemu, kakor je to zapisano v Mojzesovi knjigi.
19 And the children of the captivity kept the passover upon the fourteenth day of the first month.
Otroci iz ujetništva so praznovali pasho na štirinajsti dan prvega meseca.
20 For the priests and the Levites were purified together, all of them were pure, and killed the passover for all the children of the captivity, and for their brethren the priests, and for themselves.
Kajti duhovniki in Lévijevci so bili skupaj posvečeni, vsi izmed njih so bili čisti in zaklali so pashalno jagnje za vse otroke iz ujetništva in za njihove brate duhovnike in zase.
21 And the children of Israel, which were come again out of captivity, and all such as had separated themselves unto them from the filthiness of the heathen of the land, to seek Yhwh God of Israel, did eat,
Izraelovi otroci, ki so ponovno prišli iz ujetništva in vsi tisti, ki so se ločili pred umazanostjo poganov dežele, da iščejo Gospoda, Izraelovega Boga, so jedli
22 And kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy: for Yhwh had made them joyful, and turned the heart of the king of Assyria unto them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel.
in z radostjo so sedem dni praznovali praznik nekvašenega kruha, kajti Gospod jih je naredil radostne in obrnil srce asirskega kralja k njim, da okrepi njihove roke v delu pri Božji hiši Izraelovega Boga.
