Ezra 5
1 Now the prophets, Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo, prophesied to the Jews who were in Judah and Jerusalem. They prophesied to them in the name of the God of Israel.
Un pravieši Hagaja un Zaharija, Idus dēls, sludināja tiem Jūdiem, kas Jūdā un Jeruzālemē dzīvoja, - Israēla Dieva vārdā tie uz viņiem runāja.
2 Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak rose up and began to build God’s house which is at Jerusalem; and with them were the prophets of God, helping them.
Tad Zerubabels, Šealtiēļa dēls, un Ješuūs, Jocadaka dēls, cēlās un sāka uzcelt Dieva namu Jeruzālemē, un līdz ar tiem tie Dieva pravieši, kas tos iedrošināja.
3 At the same time Tattenai, the governor beyond the River, came to them, with Shetharbozenai and their companions, and asked them, “Who gave you a decree to build this house and to finish this wall?”
Tanī laikā pie tiem atnāca Tatnajs, zemes valdītājs viņpus upes, un ŠetarBoznajs ar saviem biedriem, un uz tiem tā sacīja: kas jums atvēlējis, šo namu uztaisīt un šo mūri uzcelt?
4 They also asked for the names of the men who were making this building.
Tad mēs viņiem sacījām to vīru vārdus, kas šo darbu taisīja.
5 But the eye of their God was on the elders of the Jews, and they did not make them cease until the matter should come to Darius, and an answer should be returned by letter concerning it.
Bet viņu Dieva acs bija pār Jūdu vecajiem, ka tie viņus neaizkavēja, kamēr šī lieta Dārijam nāca zināma un tie grāmatu par to dabūja atpakaļ.
6 The copy of the letter that Tattenai, the governor beyond the River, and Shetharbozenai, and his companions the Apharsachites who were beyond the River, sent to Darius the king follows.
Šis ir tās grāmatas raksts, ko Tatnajs, zemes valdītājs viņpus upes, ar ŠetarBoznaju un viņa biedriem, Avarzaķiešiem, kas viņpus upes dzīvoja, rakstīja ķēniņam Dārijam.
7 They sent a letter to him, in which was written: To Darius the king, all peace.
Tie sūtīja viņam grāmatu un tanī tā bija rakstīts: viss miers lai ir ķēniņam Dārijam.
8 Be it known to the king that we went into the province of Judah, to the house of the great God, which is being built with great stones and timber is laid in the walls. This work goes on with diligence and prospers in their hands.
Ķēniņam lai ir zināms, ka mēs esam nogājuši Jūda zemē tā lielā Dieva namā, kas top uzcelts no cirstiem akmeņiem, un baļķi top ielikti sienās, un darbs top tikuši(rūpīgi) darīts un izdodas labi caur viņu rokām.
9 Then we asked those elders, and said to them thus, “Who gave you a decree to build this house, and to finish this wall?”
Mēs tad esam vaicājuši tos vecajus un uz viņiem sacījuši: kas jums atvēlējis, šo namu uzcelt un šo mūri uztaisīt?
10 We asked them their names also, to inform you that we might write the names of the men who were at their head.
Mēs arī viņu vārdus esam izprasījuši no tiem, tev dot ziņu un rakstīt to vīru vārdus, kas viņu virsnieki.
11 Thus they returned us answer, saying, “We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth and are building the house that was built these many years ago, which a great king of Israel built and finished.
Bet tie mums atdeva tādu atbildi un sacīja: mēs esam debesu un zemes Dieva kalpi un uzceļam to namu, kas jau sen priekšgados bijis uzcelts, jo liels Israēla ķēniņš to uzcēlis un pabeidzis.
12 But after our fathers had provoked the God of heaven to wrath, he gave them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, the Chaldean, who destroyed this house and carried the people away into Babylon.
Tādēļ vien ka mūsu tēvi bija apkaitinājuši to debesu Dievu, viņš tos nodevis Kaldeja NebukadNecara, Bābeles ķēniņa, rokā, un tas šo namu nopostījis un tos ļaudis aizvedis cietumā uz Bābeli.
13 But in the first year of Cyrus king of Babylon, Cyrus the king made a decree to build this house of God.
Bet Bābeles ķēniņa Kirus pirmā gadā ķēniņš Kirus pavēlējis, šo Dieva namu uzcelt.
14 The gold and silver vessels of God’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple that was in Jerusalem and brought into the temple of Babylon, those Cyrus the king also took out of the temple of Babylon, and they were delivered to one whose name was Sheshbazzar, whom he had made governor.
Un arī Dieva nama zelta un sudraba traukus, ko NebukadNecars izvedis no Dieva nama Jeruzālemē un tos novedis sava dieva namā uz Bābeli, tos ķēniņš Kirus ir ņēmis no Bābeles dieva nama, un tie ir atdoti vienam ar vārdu Šešbacars, ko viņš bija iecēlis par zemes valdītāju.
15 He said to him, ‘Take these vessels, go, put them in the temple that is in Jerusalem, and let God’s house be built in its place.’
Un viņš uz to sacīja: ņem šos traukus, ej un noved tos uz to Dieva namu, kas Jeruzālemē, un lai tas Dieva nams top uzcelts savā vietā.
16 Then the same Sheshbazzar came and laid the foundations of God’s house which is in Jerusalem. Since that time even until now it has been being built, and yet it is not completed.
Tad šis Šešbacars nāca un lika pamatu Dieva namam Jeruzālemē, un tā no tā laika līdz šim ir strādāts, bet ne pabeigts.
17 Now therefore, if it seems good to the king, let a search be made in the king’s treasure house, which is there at Babylon, whether it is so that a decree was made by Cyrus the king to build this house of God at Jerusalem; and let the king send his pleasure to us concerning this matter.”
Ja nu ķēniņam patīk, tad lai meklē ķēniņa mantu namā, kas Bābelē, vai tā ir, ka no ķēniņa Kirus pavēlēts, uzcelt Dieva namu Jeruzālemē, un lai ķēniņa pavēle par to mums top sūtīta.
