Ezra 3
1 When the seventh month had come, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem.
Kad nu septītais mēnesis atnāca, un Israēla bērni bija savās pilsētās, tad tie ļaudis sapulcējās Jeruzāleme tā kā viens vienīgs vīrs.
2 Then Jeshua the son of Jozadak stood up with his brothers the priests and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and his relatives, and built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings on it, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
Un Ješuūs, Jocadaka dēls, cēlās ar saviem brāļiem, tiem priesteriem un Zerubabels, Šealtiēļa dēls, ar saviem brāļiem, un uzcēla Israēla Dieva altāri, uz viņa upurēt dedzināmos upurus, kā stāv rakstīts Mozus, Tā Dieva vīra, bauslībā.
3 In spite of their fear because of the peoples of the surrounding lands, they set the altar on its base; and they offered burnt offerings on it to the LORD, even burnt offerings morning and evening.
Un tie uzcēla to altāri savā vietā, gan bīdamies no tās zemes tautām, un uz tā upurēja dedzināmos upurus Tam Kungam, dedzināmos upurus rītos un vakaros,
4 They kept the feast of booths, as it is written, and offered the daily burnt offerings by number, according to the ordinance, as the duty of every day required;
Un turēja lieveņu svētkus, kā stāv rakstīts, un upurēja ikdienas dedzināmos upurus pēc tā skaita, kā pienācās, ikdienas savus;
5 and afterward the continual burnt offering, the offerings of the new moons, of all the set feasts of the LORD that were consecrated, and of everyone who willingly offered a free will offering to the LORD.
Un pēc tam arī tos nemitējamos dedzināmos upurus un kā nākas jaunos mēnešos un visos, Tam Kungam svētītos svētkos un priekš ikviena, kas Tam Kungam atnesa kādu labprātības dāvanu.
6 From the first day of the seventh month, they began to offer burnt offerings to the LORD; but the foundation of the LORD’s temple was not yet laid.
No septītā mēneša pirmās dienas tie iesāka Tam Kungam upurēt dedzināmos upurus; bet Tā Kunga nama pamats vēl nebija likts.
7 They also gave money to the masons and to the carpenters. They also gave food, drink, and oil to the people of Sidon and Tyre to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea, to Joppa, according to the grant that they had from Cyrus King of Persia.
Un tie deva naudu akmeņu cirtējiem un amatniekiem un ēst un dzert un eļļu Sidoniešiem un Tiriešiem, lai tie vestu ciedru kokus no Lībanus jūrmalā uz Jazu, kā Kirus, Persiešu ķēniņš, tiem bija vēlējis.
8 Now in the second year of their coming to God’s house at Jerusalem, in the second month, Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the rest of their brothers the priests and the Levites, and all those who had come out of the captivity to Jerusalem, began the work and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to have the oversight of the work of the LORD’s house.
Tad nu otrā gadā pēc viņu atnākšanas pie Dieva nama Jeruzālemē, otrā mēnesī, Zerubabels, Šealtiēļa dēls, un Ješuūs, Jocadaka dēls, un tie atlikušie no viņu brāļiem, priesteri un leviti un visi, kas no cietuma zemes bija pārnākuši Jeruzālemē, iesāka un iecēla tos levitus, kas divdesmit gadus veci un pāri, par uzraugiem pie Tā Kunga nama darba.
9 Then Jeshua stood with his sons and his brothers, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, together to have the oversight of the workmen in God’s house: the sons of Henadad, with their sons and their brothers the Levites.
Un Ješuūs, viņa dēli un viņa brāļi, Kadmiēls un viņa dēli, un Jūda dēli stāvēja kā viens vienīgs vīrs, uzraugi būdami pār tiem, kas to darbu pie Tā Kunga nama darīja, tāpat Henadada bērni, viņu dēli un viņu brāļi, tie leviti.
10 When the builders laid the foundation of the LORD’s temple, they set the priests in their vestments with trumpets, with the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the LORD, according to the directions of David king of Israel.
Kad nu tie amatnieki Tā Kunga namam lika pamatu, tad nostādīja priesterus amata drēbēs ar bazūnēm un levitus, Asafa dēlus, ar pulkstenīšiem, To Kungu teikt ar Dāvida, Israēla ķēniņa dziesmām.
11 They sang to one another in praising and giving thanks to the LORD, “For he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever toward Israel.” All the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised the LORD, because the foundation of the LORD’s house had been laid.
Un tie dziedāja viens par otru, To Kungu teikdami un slavēdami, ka Tas ir labs, un Viņa žēlastība paliek mūžīgi pār Israēli. Un visi ļaudis gavilēja ar lielu gavilēšanu, To Kungu teikdami, ka pamats bija likts Tā Kunga namam.
12 But many of the priests and Levites and heads of fathers’ households, the old men who had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice. Many also shouted aloud for joy,
Bet daudz priesteru un levitu un cilts tēvu, kas bija veci, kas bija redzējuši to pirmo namu, kad tie šim namam redzēja pamatu liekam, tad tie raudāja gauži. Bet daudz atkal pacēla savas balsis ar gavilēšanu un ar prieku,
13 so that the people could not discern the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people; for the people shouted with a loud shout, and the noise was heard far away.
Tā ka tie ļaudis nevarēja izšķirt to gaviļu un prieka balsi no ļaužu raudāšanas, jo tie ļaudis gavilēja ar skaņu gavilēšanu, un tā skaņa bija tālu dzirdama.
