Ezra 3
1 By the seventh month, the Israelites had settled in their towns, and the people assembled as one man in Jerusalem.
A kad doðe sedmi mjesec i sinovi Izrailjevi bijahu u svojim gradovima, sabra se narod jednodušno u Jerusalim.
2 Then Jeshua son of Jozadak and his fellow priests, along with Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and his associates, began to build the altar of the God of Israel to sacrifice burnt offerings on it, as it is written in the Law of Moses the man of God.
Tada usta Isus sin Josedekov s braæom svojom sveštenicima i Zorovavelj sin Salatilov s braæom svojom, i zgradiše oltar Boga Izrailjeva da prinose na njemu žrtve paljenice kako piše u zakonu Mojsija èovjeka Božijega.
3 They set up the altar on its foundation and sacrificed burnt offerings on it to the LORD—both the morning and evening burnt offerings—even though they feared the people of the land.
I podigoše oltar na mjestu njegovu, ako i bijahu u strahu od naroda zemaljskih; i prinosiše na njemu žrtve paljenice Gospodu, žrtve paljenice jutrom i veèerom;
4 They also celebrated the Feast of Tabernacles in accordance with what is written, and they offered burnt offerings daily based on the number prescribed for each day.
I praznovaše praznik sjenica, kako je pisano, prinoseæi žrtve paljenice svaki dan na broj kako je ureðeno za svaki dan.
5 After that, they presented the regular burnt offerings and those for New Moons and for all the appointed sacred feasts of the LORD, as well as all the freewill offerings brought to the LORD.
A potom prinosiše žrtvu paljenicu svagdašnju, i na mladine i na sve praznike Gospodnje osveæene i od svakoga koji dragovoljno prinošaše prinos Gospodu.
6 On the first day of the seventh month, the Israelites began to offer burnt offerings to the LORD, although the foundation of the temple of the LORD had not been laid.
Od prvoga dana mjeseca sedmoga poèeše prinositi žrtve paljenice Gospodu, a dom Gospodnji još ne bješe osnovan.
7 They gave money to the masons and carpenters, and food and drink and oil to the people of Sidon and Tyre to bring cedar logs from Lebanon to Joppa by sea, as authorized by Cyrus king of Persia.
I dadoše novce kamenarima i drvodjeljama, i hranu i piæe i ulje Sidonjanima i Tircima da dovoze drva kedrova s Livana u more Jopsko, kako im bješe dopustio Kir car Persijski.
8 In the second month of the second year after they had arrived at the house of God in Jerusalem, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, Jeshua son of Jozadak, and the rest of their associates including the priests, the Levites, and all who had returned to Jerusalem from the captivity, began the work. They appointed Levites twenty years of age or older to supervise the construction of the house of the LORD.
I druge godine po povratku njihovu k domu Božijemu u Jerusalim, drugoga mjeseca poèeše Zorovavelj sin Salatilov i Isus sin Josedekov i ostala braæa njihova, sveštenici i Leviti, i svi koji doðoše iz ropstva u Jerusalim, i postaviše Levite od dvadeset godina i više da nastoje nad poslom oko doma Gospodnjega.
9 So Jeshua and his sons and brothers, Kadmiel and his sons (descendants of Yehudah), and the sons of Henadad and their sons and brothers—all Levites—joined together to supervise those working on the house of God.
I bi postavljen Isus i sinovi njegovi i braæa njegova, i Kadmilo i sinovi njegovi, sinovi Judini, zajedno da nastoje nad poslenicima u domu Božijem, i sinovi Inadadovi i njihovi sinovi i braæa njihova Leviti.
10 When the builders had laid the foundation of the temple of the LORD, the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites (the sons of Asaph) with cymbals, took their positions to praise the LORD, as David king of Israel had prescribed.
I kad zidari polagahu temelj crkvi Gospodnjoj, postaviše sveštenike obuèene s trubama i Levite sinove Asafove s kimvalima da hvale Gospoda po uredbi Davida cara Izrailjeva.
11 And they sang responsively with praise and thanksgiving to the LORD: “For He is good; for His loving devotion to Israel endures forever.” Then all the people gave a great shout of praise to the LORD, because the foundation of the house of the LORD had been laid.
I pjevahu naizmjence hvaleæi i slaveæi Gospoda: jer je dovijeka milost njegova nad Izrailjem. I sav narod podvikivaše iza glasa hvaleæi Gospoda što se osnivaše dom Gospodnji.
12 But many of the older priests, Levites, and family heads who had seen the first temple wept loudly when they saw the foundation of this temple. Still, many others shouted joyfully.
A mnogi od sveštenika i Levita i glavara domova otaèkih, starci koji bijahu vidjeli preðašnji dom, plakahu iza glasa gledajuæi ovaj dom koji se osnivaše, a mnogi opet podvikivahu od radosti,
13 The people could not distinguish the shouts of joy from the sound of weeping, because the people were making so much noise. And the sound was heard from afar.
Te narod ne mogaše razaznati vike radosne od vike plaène u narodu, jer narod podvikivaše iza glasa, i vika se èujaše daleko.
