عَزْرَا 3
| وَلَمَّا ٱسْتُهِلَّ ٱلشَّهْرُ ٱلسَّابِعُ وَبَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي مُدُنِهِمُ، ٱجْتَمَعَ ٱلشَّعْبُ كَرَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ١ 1 |
And when the seventh month was come, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem.
| وَقَامَ يَشُوعُ بْنُ يُوصَادَاقَ وَإِخْوَتُهُ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ، وَزَرُبَّابِلُ بْنُ شَأَلْتِئِيلَ وَإِخْوَتُهُ، وَبَنَوْا مَذْبَحَ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيُصْعِدُوا عَلَيْهِ مُحْرَقَاتٍ كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي شَرِيعَةِ مُوسَى رَجُلِ ٱللهِ. | ٢ 2 |
Then stood up Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and builded the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt-offerings thereon, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
| وَأَقَامُوا ٱلْمَذْبَحَ فِي مَكَانِهِ، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ عَلَيْهِمْ رُعْبٌ مِنْ شُعُوبِ ٱلْأَرَاضِي، وَأَصْعَدُوا عَلَيْهِ مُحْرَقَاتٍ لِلرَّبِّ، مُحْرَقَاتِ ٱلصَّبَاحِ وَٱلْمَسَاءِ. | ٣ 3 |
And they set the altar upon its base; for fear was upon them because of the peoples of the countries: and they offered burnt-offerings thereon unto Jehovah, even burnt-offerings morning and evening.
| وَحَفِظُوا عِيدَ ٱلْمَظَالِّ كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ، وَمُحْرَقَةَ يَوْمٍ فَيَوْمٍ بِٱلْعَدَدِ كَٱلْمَرْسُومِ، أَمْرَ ٱلْيَوْمِ بِيَوْمِهِ. | ٤ 4 |
And they kept the feast of tabernacles, as it is written, and [offered] the daily burnt-offerings by number, according to the ordinance, as the duty of every day required;
| وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ٱلْمُحْرَقَةُ ٱلدَّائِمَةُ، وَلِلْأَهِلَّةِ وَلِجَمِيعِ مَوَاسِمِ ٱلرّبِّ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةِ، وَلِكُلِّ مَن تبرَّعَ بِمُتَبَرَّعٍ لِلرَّبِّ. | ٥ 5 |
and afterward the continual burnt-offering, and [the offerings] of the new moons, and of all the set feasts of Jehovah that were consecrated, and of every one that willingly offered a freewill-offering unto Jehovah.
| ٱبْتَدَأُوا مِنَ ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ مِنَ ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلسَّابِعِ يُصْعِدُونَ مُحْرَقَاتٍ لِلرَّبِّ، وَهَيْكَلُ ٱلرَّبِّ لَمْ يَكُنْ قَدْ تَأَسَّسَ. | ٦ 6 |
From the first day of the seventh month began they to offer burnt-offerings unto Jehovah: but the foundation of the temple of Jehovah was not yet laid.
| وَأَعْطَوْا فِضَّةً لِلنَّحَّاتِينَ وَٱلنَّجَّارِينَ، وَمَأْكَلًا وَمَشْرَبًا وَزَيْتًا لِلصِّيدُونِيِّينَ وَٱلصُّورِيِّينَ لِيَأْتُوا بِخَشَبِ أَرْزٍ مِنْ لُبْنَانَ إِلَى بَحْرِ يَافَا، حَسَبَ إِذْنِ كُورَشَ مَلِكِ فَارِسَ لَهُمْ. | ٧ 7 |
They gave money also unto the masons, and to the carpenters; and food, and drink, and oil, unto them of Sidon, and to them of Tyre, to bring cedar-trees from Lebanon to the sea, unto Joppa, according to the grant that they had of Cyrus king of Persia.
| وَفِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلثَّانِيَةِ مِنْ مَجِيئِهِمْ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱللهِ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلثَّانِي، شَرَعَ زَرُبَّابِلُ بْنُ شَأَلْتِئِيلَ وَيَشُوعُ بْنُ يُوصَادَاقَ وَبَقِيَّةُ إِخْوَتِهِمِ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ وَجَمِيعُ ٱلْقَادِمِينَ مِنَ ٱلسَّبْيِ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَأَقَامُوا ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ مِنِ ٱبْنِ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً فَمَا فَوْقُ لِلْمُنَاظَرَةِ عَلَى عَمَلِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٨ 8 |
Now in the second year of their coming unto the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the rest of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all they that were come out of the captivity unto Jerusalem, and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to have the oversight of the work of the house of Jehovah.
| وَوَقَفَ يَشُوعُ مَعَ بَنِيهِ وَإِخْوَتِهِ، قَدْمِيئِيلَ وَبَنِيهِ بَنِي يَهُوذَا مَعًا لِلْمُنَاظَرَةِ عَلَى عَامِلِي ٱلشُّغْلِ فِي بَيْتِ ٱللهِ، وَبَنِي حِينَادَادَ مَعَ بَنِيهِمْ وَإِخْوَتِهِمِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ. | ٩ 9 |
Then stood Jeshua with his sons and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, together, to have the oversight of the workmen in the house of God: the sons of Henadad, with their sons and their brethren the Levites.
| وَلَمَّا أَسَّسَ ٱلْبَانُونَ هَيْكَلَ ٱلرَّبِّ، أَقَامُوا ٱلْكَهَنَةَ بِمَلَابِسِهِمْ بِأَبْوَاقٍ، وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ بَنِي آسَافَ بِٱلصُّنُوجِ، لِتَسْبِيحِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى تَرْتِيبِ دَاوُدَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٠ 10 |
And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of Jehovah, they set the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise Jehovah, after the order of David king of Israel.
| وَغَنَّوْا بِٱلتَّسْبِيحِ وَٱلْحَمْدِ لِلرَّبِّ، لِأَنَّهُ صَالِحٌ لِأَنَّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ رَحْمَتَهُ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَكُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ هَتَفُوا هُتَافًا عَظِيمًا بِٱلتَّسْبِيحِ لِلرَّبِّ لِأَجْلِ تَأْسِيسِ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ١١ 11 |
And they sang one to another in praising and giving thanks unto Jehovah, [saying], For he is good, for his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised Jehovah, because the foundation of the house of Jehovah was laid.
| وَكَثِيرُونَ مِنَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ وَرُؤُوسِ ٱلْآبَاءِ ٱلشُّيُوخِ، ٱلَّذِينَ رَأَوْا ٱلْبَيْتَ ٱلْأَوَّلَ، بَكَوْا بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ عِنْدَ تَأْسِيسِ هَذَا ٱلْبَيْتِ أَمَامَ أَعْيُنِهِمْ. وَكَثِيرُونَ كَانُوا يَرْفَعُونَ أَصْوَاتَهُمْ بِٱلْهُتَافِ بِفَرَحٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
But many of the priests and Levites and heads of fathers’ [houses], the old men that had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice; and many shouted aloud for joy:
| وَلَمْ يَكُنِ ٱلشَّعْبُ يُمَيِّزُ هُتَافَ ٱلْفَرَحِ مِنْ صَوْتِ بُكَاءِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلشَّعْبَ كَانَ يَهْتِفُ هُتَافًا عَظِيمًا حَتَّى أَنَّ ٱلصَّوْتَ سُمِعَ مِنْ بُعْدٍ. | ١٣ 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 afar off.
