< Ezra 6 >

1 Then Darius the king made a decree, and they sought in the house of the scrolls of the treasuries placed there 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 has been found at Achmetha, in a palace that [is] in the province of Media, a scroll, and a record thus written within it [is]:
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, Cyrus the king has made a decree concerning the house of God in Jerusalem: let the house be built in the place where they are sacrificing sacrifices, and its foundations strongly laid; its height sixty cubits, its breadth sixty 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 three rows of rolled stones, and a row of new wood, and let the outlay 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, the vessels of the house of God, of gold and silver, that Nebuchadnezzar took forth out of the temple that [is] in Jerusalem, and brought to Babylon, let be given back, and go to the temple that [is] in Jerusalem, [each] to its place, and put [them] down 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 Tatnai, governor beyond the river, Shethar-Boznai, and their companions, the Apharsachites, who [are] beyond the river, be far from here;
›Sedaj torej Tatenáj, voditelj onkraj reke, Šetár Boznáj in vaši družabniki, Afarsahejci, ki so onkraj reke, bodite daleč od tam.
7 let alone the work of this house of God, let the governor of the Jews, and [the] elders of the Jews, build this house of God on its place.
Pustite delo te Božje hiše. Naj voditelj Judov in starešine Judov zgradijo to Božjo hišo na njenem kraju.
8 And a decree is made by me concerning that which you do with [the] elders of these Jews to build this house of God, that of [the] riches of [the] king, that [are] of [the] tribute beyond [the] river, let the outlay be given speedily to these men, that they do not cease;
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 what they are needing—both young bullocks, and rams, and lambs for burnt-offerings to the God of the heavens, wheat, salt, wine, and oil according to the saying of the priests who [are] in Jerusalem—let be given to 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 are bringing sweet savors near to the God of the heavens, and praying 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 And a decree is made by me, that anyone who changes this thing, let wood be pulled down from his house, and being raised up, let him be struck on it, 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 God, who caused His Name to dwell there, casts down any king and people that puts forth his hand to change, to destroy this house of God that [is] in Jerusalem; I Darius have made a decree; let it be done speedily.”
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 beyond the river, Shethar-Boznai, and their companions, according to that which Darius the king has sent, so they have done 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 are building and prospering through [the] prophecy of Haggai [the] prophet, and Zechariah son of Iddo, and they have built and finished by [the] decree of [the] God of Israel, and by [the] decree 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 has gone out until the third day of the month Adar, that is [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 sons of Israel have made, [and] the priests, and the Levites, and the rest of the sons of the captivity, a 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 have brought near for the dedication of this house of God: one hundred bullocks, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and twelve young male goats for a sin-offering for all Israel 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 have established the priests in their divisions, and the Levites in their courses, over the service of God that [is] in Jerusalem, as it is written in the scroll 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 sons of the captivity make the Passover on the fourteenth of the first month,
Otroci iz ujetništva so praznovali pasho na štirinajsti dan prvega meseca.
20 for the priests and the Levites have been purified together—all of them [are] pure—and they slaughter the Passover for all the sons of the captivity, and for their brothers 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 sons of Israel, those returning from the captivity, and everyone who is separated from the uncleanness of the nations of the land to them, to seek to YHWH, God of Israel, 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 they make the Celebration of Unleavened Things seven days with joy, for YHWH made them to rejoice, and turned around the heart of the king of Asshur to 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.
