< Ezra 6 >

1 Then Daryavesh the king made a decree, and search was made in the house of the archives, where the treasures were laid up in Babylon.
Тогда Дарий царь повеле, и искаша во книгохранителницах, идеже сокровище лежит в Вавилоне.
2 There was found at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of Media, a scroll, and there was written in it as follows: "Memorandum:
И обретеся во Амафе граде Мидийстем в палате главизна едина, и сие писано бе в ней на память:
3 In the first year of Koresh the king, Koresh the king made a decree: Concerning God's house at Jerusalem, let the house be built, the place where they offer sacrifices, and let its foundations be strongly laid; its height one hundred three feet and four inches; and its breadth one hundred three feet and four inches;
в лето первое Кира царя, Кир царь царь повеле о доме Божии, иже во Иерусалиме: дом да созиждется, и место, идеже жрут жертвы: и положи меру высоты лакот шестьдесят, широта его лакот шестьдесят:
4 with three layers of great stones, and one layer of timber. And let the expenses be given out of the king's house.
и стены каменныя твердыя три, и стена древяная едина, иждивение же от дому царева да дастся:
5 Also let the gold and silver vessels of God's house, which Nebuchadnezzar took forth out of the temple which is at Jerusalem, and brought to Babylon, be restored, and brought again to the temple which is at Jerusalem, everyone to its place; and you shall put them in God's house.
и сосуди дому Божия златии и сребрянии, ихже Навуходоносор взя от дому, иже во Иерусалиме, и пренесе их в Вавилон, да отдадутся и внесутся в дом, иже во Иерусалиме, на место, идеже и поставлени бяху в дому Божии:
6 Now therefore, Tattenai, governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and your companions the Apharsachites, who are beyond the River, you must stay far from there.
ныне убо дадите, князие сущии за рекою, Сафарвузанай и сослужителие их Афарсахее, иже за рекою, далече отидите оттуду:
7 Leave 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 its place.
ныне оставите дело дому Божия: князие Иудейстии и старейшины их дом Божий той да созидают на месте своем:
8 Moreover I make a decree what you shall do to these elders of the Jews for the building of this house of God: that of the king's goods, even of the tribute beyond the River, expenses be given with all diligence to these men, that they be not hindered.
и от мене повелено бысть, да не когда что сотворите противно старейшинам Жидовским в созидании дому Божия онаго: и от имений царских даней сущих за рекою прилежно на иждивение да дается мужем тем, еже бы не престало дело то:
9 That which they have need of, both young bulls, and rams, and lambs, for burnt offerings to the God of heaven; also wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the word of the cohanim who are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail;
и еже аще оскудеет, и телцы и овны и агнцы, во всесожжения Богу небесному, пшеница, соль, вино, елей, по словеси священников, иже во Иерусалиме, да дается им по вся дни, еже аще воспросят,
10 that they may offer sacrifices of pleasant aroma to the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king, and of his sons.
да будут приносящии благоухания Богу небесному и да молятся о жизни царя и сынов его:
11 Also I have made a decree, that whoever shall alter this word, let a beam be pulled out from his house, and let him be lifted up and fastened thereon; and let his house be made a dunghill for this:
и от мене уставлено повеление, да всяк человек, иже преступит повеление сие, возмется древо от дому его, и воздвижен обесится на нем, и дом его мне будет взят:
12 and the God who has caused his name to dwell there overthrow all kings and peoples who shall put forth their hand to alter the same, to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Daryavesh have made a decree; let it be done with all diligence.
и Бог, Егоже обитает имя тамо, да низвратит всякаго царя и люди, иже прострут руку свою пременити или разорити дом Божий, иже есть во Иерусалиме: аз Дарий поставих повеление, с прилежанием да будет.
13 Then Tattenai, the governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and their companions, because Daryavesh the king had sent a decree, did accordingly with all diligence.
Тогда Фафанай князь страны заречныя, Сафарвузанай и сослужебницы его, якоже посла Дарий царь, тако сотвориша тщателно.
14 The elders of the Jews built and prospered, through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. They built and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the decree of Koresh, and Daryavesh, and Artachshasta king of Persia.
Старейшины же Иудейстии созидаху и левити по пророчеству Аггеа пророка и Захарии сына Аддова. И создаша и совершиша по повелению Бога Израилева и по повелению Кира и Дариа и Артаксеркса царей Персских,
15 This house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Daryavesh the king.
и совершиша дом той даже до дне третияго, месяца Адара, иже есть в лето шестое царства Дариа царя.
16 The children of Israel, the cohanim, and the Levites, and the rest of the people from the exile, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy.
Сотвориша же сынове Израилевы, священницы и левити, и прочии сынов преселения обновление дому Божия в радости,
17 They offered at the dedication of this house of God one hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve male goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
и принесоша на обновление дому Божия телцев сто, овнов двести, агнцев четыреста, козлов от коз за грехи всего Израиля дванадесять, по числу колен Израилевых:
18 They set the cohanim 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.
и поставиша священников в чинех своих и левиты в частех своих на служение дому Божия во Иерусалиме, якоже писано есть в книзе Моисеове.
19 The people from the exile kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
И сотвориша сынове преселения пасху в четвертыйнадесять день месяца перваго:
20 For the cohanim and the Levites had purified themselves together; all of them were pure: and they killed the Passover lamb for all the people from the exile, and for their brothers the cohanim, and for themselves.
очищени бо бяху священницы и левити даже до единаго вси чисти, и пожроша пасху всем сыном преселения и братии их священником и себе самым.
21 The children of Israel who had come again out of the captivity, and all such as had separated themselves to them from the filthiness of the nations of the land, to seek the LORD, the God of Israel, ate,
И ядоша сынове Израилевы пасху, иже от преселения, и всяк отлучивыйся от осквернения языков земли к ним, еже взыскати Господа Бога Израилева.
22 and kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy: for the LORD had made them joyful, and had turned the heart of the king of Assyria to them, to strengthen their hands in the work of God's house, the God of Israel.
И сотвориша праздник опресночный седмь дний в веселии, яко возвесели их Господь и обрати сердце царя Ассурска к ним, укрепити руки их в делех дому Бога Израилева.
