Ezra 6
1 Thus King Darius ordered a search of the archives stored in the treasury of Babylon.
Tada car Darije zapovjedi te tražiše u knjižnici gdje se ostavljaše blago u Vavilonu.
2 And a scroll was found in the fortress of Ecbatana, in the province of Media, with the following written on it: Memorandum:
I naðoše u Ahmeti u dvoru carskom u zemlji Midskoj knjigu u kojoj bješe zapisan ovaj spomen:
3 In the first year of King Cyrus, he issued a decree concerning the house of God in Jerusalem: Let the house be rebuilt as a place for offering sacrifices, and let its foundations be firmly laid. It is to be sixty cubits high and sixty cubits wide,
Prve godine cara Kira zapovjedi car Kir: dom Božji u Jerusalimu da se sazida da bude mjesto gdje æe se prinositi žrtve, i temelji da mu se izidaju, da bude visok šezdeset lakata i širok šezdeset lakata.
4 with three layers of cut stones and one of timbers. The costs are to be paid from the royal treasury.
Tri reda da budu od kamenja velikoga i jedan red od drveta novoga, a trošak da se daje iz carskoga doma.
5 Furthermore, the gold and silver articles of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took from the temple in Jerusalem and carried to Babylon, must also be returned to the temple in Jerusalem and deposited in the house of God.
I sudovi doma Božijega zlatni i srebrni što Navuhodonosor bješe uzeo iz crkve Jerusalimske i donio u Vavilon, da se vrate i opet odnesu u crkvu Jerusalimsku na svoje mjesto i da se ostave u domu Božijem.
6 Therefore Darius decreed: To Tattenai governor of the region west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and your associates and officials in the region: You must stay away from that place!
Zato Tatnaju upravitelju s one strane rijeke, Setar-Vosnaju s drugovima svojim Afarsašanima, koji ste s one strane rijeke, uklonite se odatle.
7 Leave this work on the house of God alone. Let the governor and elders of the Jews rebuild this house of God on its original site.
Ostavite neka se gradi taj dom Božji, upravitelj Judejski i starješine njihove neka zidaju taj dom Božji na mjestu njegovu.
8 I hereby decree what you must do for these elders of the Jews who are rebuilding this house of God: The cost is to be paid in full to these men from the royal treasury out of the taxes of the provinces west of the Euphrates, so that the work will not be hindered.
Još zapovijedam šta æete èiniti starješinama Judejskim da bi se sazidao taj dom Božji; od blaga carskoga, od dohodaka s one strane rijeke, da se daje bez oklijevanja trošak onijem ljudima da se ne ustavljaju.
9 Whatever is needed—young bulls, rams, and lambs for burnt offerings to the God of heaven, as well as wheat, salt, wine, and oil, as requested by the priests in Jerusalem—must be given to them daily without fail.
I što treba, bilo junaca ili ovnova i jaganjaca za žrtve paljenice Bogu nebeskomu, ili pšenice, soli, vina i ulja, kako reku sveštenici Jerusalimski, da im se daje svaki dan bez odgaðanja,
10 Then they will be able to offer sacrifices of a sweet aroma to the God of heaven and to pray for the lives of the king and his sons.
Da prinose mirisne žrtve Bogu nebeskomu i da se mole za život carev i sinova njegovijeh.
11 I also decree that if any man interferes with this directive, a beam is to be torn from his house and raised up, and he is to be impaled on it. And his own house shall be made a pile of rubble for this offense.
Još zapovijedam: ko bi uèinio drukèije, iz njegove kuæe da se uzme brvno i pobode, i on na njemu da se pogubi, i njegova kuæa da bude bunište za to.
12 May God, who has caused His Name to dwell there, overthrow any king or people who lifts a hand to alter this decree or to destroy this house of God in Jerusalem. I, Darius, have issued the decree. Let it be carried out with diligence.
I Bog koji je ondje nastanio ime svoje, da obori svakoga cara i svaki narod koji bi digao ruku da promijeni ovo i raskopa taj dom Božji u Jerusalimu. Ja Darije zapovijedam ovo, odmah da se izvrši.
13 In response, Tattenai the governor of the region west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and their associates diligently carried out what King Darius had decreed.
Tada Tatnaj upravitelj s ove strane rijeke, Setar-Vosnaj i drugovi njihovi uèiniše odmah kako zapovjedi Darije.
14 So the Jewish elders built and prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah son of Iddo. They finished building according to the command of the God of Israel and the decrees of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes, kings of Persia.
I starješine Judejske zidaše i napredovaše po proroštvu Ageja proroka i Zaharije sina Idova, zidaše i dovršiše po zapovijesti Boga Izrailjeva i po zapovijesti Kira i Darija i Artakserksa cara Persijskoga.
15 And this temple was completed on the third day of the month of Adar, in the sixth year of the reign of King Darius.
I svrši se taj dom do treæega dana mjeseca Adara šeste godine carovanja cara Darija.
16 Then the people of Israel—the priests, the Levites, and the rest of the exiles—celebrated the dedication of the house of God with joy.
I sinovi Izrailjevi, sveštenici i Leviti i ostali izmeðu onijeh koji se vratiše iz ropstva posvetiše taj dom Božji radujuæi se.
17 For the dedication of the house of God they offered a hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs, and a sin offering for all Israel of twelve male goats, one for each tribe of Israel.
I prinesoše na posveæenje toga doma Božijega sto junaca, dvjesta ovnova, èetiri stotine jaganjaca i dvanaest jaraca na žrtvu za grijeh za svega Izrailja prema broju plemena Izrailjevijeh.
18 They also appointed the priests by their divisions and the Levites by their groups to the service of God in Jerusalem, according to what is written in the Book of Moses.
I postaviše sveštenike po redovima njihovijem i Levite po redovima njihovijem da služe Bogu u Jerusalimu kako je napisano u knjizi Mojsijevoj.
19 On the fourteenth day of the first month, the exiles kept the Passover.
Potom slaviše koji se vratiše iz ropstva pashu èetrnaestoga dana prvoga mjeseca.
20 All the priests and Levites had purified themselves and were ceremonially clean. And the Levites slaughtered the Passover lamb for all the exiles, for their priestly brothers, and for themselves.
Jer se oèistiše i sveštenici i Leviti, te bijahu svi èisti, i klaše pashu za sve koji se vratiše iz ropstva i za braæu svoju sveštenike i za sebe same.
21 The Israelites who had returned from exile ate it, together with all who had separated themselves from the uncleanness of the peoples of the land to seek the LORD, the God of Israel.
I jedoše sinovi Izrailjevi koji se vratiše iz ropstva i svi koji se od neèistote naroda zemaljskih odvojiše k njima da traže Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva.
22 For seven days they kept the Feast of Unleavened Bread with joy, because the LORD had made them joyful and turned the heart of the king of Assyria toward them to strengthen their hands in the work on the house of the God of Israel.
I praznovaše praznik prijesnijeh hljebova sedam dana veseleæi se; jer ih razveseli Gospod i obrati srce cara Asirskoga k njima da ukrijepi ruke njihove u poslu oko doma Boga, Boga Izrailjeva.
