< Nehemiah 8 >

1 And all the people are gathered as one man unto the broad place that [is] before the water-gate, and they say to Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses, that Jehovah commanded Israel.
Tada se skupi sav narod jednodušno na ulicu koja je pred vratima vodenijem, i rekoše Jezdri književniku da donese knjigu zakona Mojsijeva koji dade Gospod Izrailju.
2 And Ezra the priest bringeth the law before the assembly, both of men and women, and every one intelligent to hear, on the first day of the seventh month,
I donese Jezdra sveštenik zakon pred zbor, u kom bjehu ljudi i žene i svi koji mogahu razumjeti, prvoga dana sedmoga mjeseca.
3 and he readeth in it before the broad place that [is] before the water-gate, from the light till the middle of the day, over-against the men, and the women, and those intelligent, and the ears of all the people [are] unto the book of the law.
I èita je na ulici koja je pred vratima vodenijem od jutra do podne pred ljudima i ženama i onijem koji mogahu razumjeti, i uši svemu narodu bijahu obraæene ka knjizi zakonskoj.
4 And Ezra the scribe standeth on a tower of wood that they made for the purpose, and Mattithiah standeth near him, and Shema, and Anaiah, and Urijah, and Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right; and on his left Pedaiah, and Mishael, and Malchijah, and Hashum, and Hashbaddana, Zechariah, Meshullam.
A Jezdra književnik stajaše na mjestu povisoku, koje bjehu naèinili od drveta za to; i do njega stajaše Matatija i Sema i Anaja i Urija i Helkija i Masija s desne strane, a s lijeve Fedaja i Misailo i Malhija i Asum i Asvadana, Zaharija i Mesulam.
5 And Ezra openeth the book before the eyes of all the people — for above all the people he hath been — and at his opening [it] all the people have stood up,
I otvori Jezdra knjigu na vidiku svemu narodu, jer bijaše više svega naroda, i kad je otvori, usta sav narod.
6 and Ezra blesseth Jehovah, the great God, and all the people answer, 'Amen, Amen,' with lifting up of their hands, and they bow and do obeisance to Jehovah — faces to the earth.
I Jezdra blagoslovi Gospoda Boga velikoga, a sav narod odgovori: amin, amin, podigavši ruke svoje, pa se saviše i pokloniše se Gospodu licem do zemlje.
7 And Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, giving the people understanding in the law, and the people, [are] on their station,
A Isus i Vanije i Serevija, Jamin, Akuv, Savetaj, Odija, Masija, Kelita, Azarija, Jozavad, Anan, Felaja i drugi Leviti pouèavahu narod zakonu, i narod stajaše na mjestu.
8 and they read in the book, in the law of God, explaining — so as to give the meaning, and they give understanding to the convocation.
I èitahu knjigu, zakon Božji, razgovijetno, i razlagahu smisao, te se razumijevaše što se èitaše.
9 And Nehemiah — he [is] the Tirshatha — saith (and Ezra the priest, the scribe, and the Levites who are instructing the people) to all the people, 'To-day is holy to Jehovah your God, do not mourn, nor weep:' for all the people are weeping at their hearing the words of the law.
Potom Nemija, koji je Tirsata, i sveštenik Jezdra književnik i Leviti koji pouèavahu narod, rekoše svemu narodu: ovaj je dan svet Gospodu Bogu vašemu; ne tužite ni plaèite. Jer plakaše sav narod slušajuæi što govori zakon.
10 And he saith to them, 'Go, eat fat things, and drink sweet things, and sent portions to him for whom nothing is prepared, for to-day [is] holy to our Lord, and be not grieved, for the joy of Jehovah is your strength.'
I reèe im: idite i jedite pretilo i pijte slatko i šaljite dijelove onima koji nemaju ništa zgotovljeno, jer je ovaj dan svet Gospodu našemu. Zato ne budite žalosni, jer je radost Gospodnja vaša sila.
11 And the Levites are keeping all the people silent, saying, 'Be silent, for to-day [is] holy, and be not grieved.'
I Leviti utišaše narod govoreæi: muèite, jer je ovaj dan svet, i ne budite žalosni.
12 And all the people go to eat, and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great joy, because they have understood concerning the words that they made known to them.
I otide sav narod da jede i pije i da šalje dijelove, i veseliše se veoma što razumješe rijeèi koje im se kazaše.
13 And on the second day have been gathered heads of the fathers of all the people, the priests, and the Levites, unto Ezra the scribe, even to act wisely concerning the words of the law.
A sjutradan skupiše se glavari domova otaèkih iz svega naroda, sveštenici i Leviti, k Jezdri književniku da uèe što zakon govori.
14 And they find written in the law that Jehovah commanded by the hand of Moses, that the sons of Israel dwell in booths in the feast, in the seventh month,
I naðoše napisano u zakonu da je Gospod zapovjedio preko Mojsija da sinovi Izrailjevi borave u sjenicama na praznik sedmoga mjeseca.
15 and that they proclaim and cause to pass over all their cities, (and in Jerusalem, ) saying, 'Go ye out to the mount, and bring leaves of the olive, and leaves of the oil tree, and leaves of the myrtle, and leaves of the palms, and leaves of thick trees, to make booths as it is written.'
I objaviše i proglasiše po svijem gradovima svojim i u Jerusalimu govoreæi: idite u goru, i donesite granja maslinova i granja od divlje masline i granja mirtova i palmova i granja od šumnatijeh drveta, da naèinite sjenice, kako je napisano.
16 And the people go out, and bring in, and make for themselves booths, each on his roof, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and in the broad place of the water-gate, and in the broad place of the gate of Ephraim.
I narod izide i donese i naèini sjenice svaki na svom krovu i u svom trijemu i u trijemovima doma Božijega i na ulici kod vrata vodenijeh i na ulici kod vrata Jefremovijeh.
17 And they make — all the assembly of the captives of the captivity — booths, and they sit in booths; for the sons of Israel had not done, from the days of Jeshua son of Nun, so unto that day, and there is very great joy.
I tako naèini sjenice sav zbor, što se bješe vratio iz ropstva, i boravljahu pod sjenicama. A od vremena Isusa sina Navina do toga dana ne èiniše tako sinovi Izrailjevi. I bi veselje veoma veliko.
18 And he readeth in the book of the law of God day by day, from the first day till the last day, and they make a feast seven days, and on the eighth day a restraint, according to the ordinance.
I èitaše se knjiga zakona Božijega svaki dan, od prvoga dana do pošljednjega; i praznovaše praznik sedam dana, a osmi dan bi sabor, kako je ureðeno.
