< Ezra 3 >

1 And the seventh month came on, and the children of Israel [were] in their cities, and the people assembled as one man at Jerusalem.
Пришедшу же месяцу седмому, и бяху сынове Израилевы во градех своих, и собрашася людие аки человек един во Иерусалим.
2 Then stood up Jesus the [son] of Josedec, and his brethren the priests, and Zorobabel the [son] of Salathiel, and his brethren, and they built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer upon it whole burnt offerings, according to the things that were written in the law of Moses the man of God.
И воста Иисус сын Иоседеков и братия его священницы, и Зоровавель сын Салафиилев и братия его, и создаша олтарь Богу Израилеву, да принесут на нем всесожжения, якоже писано есть в законе Моисеа человека Божия.
3 And they set up the altar on its place, for there was a terror upon them because of the people of the lands: and the whole burnt offerings was offered up upon it to the Lord morning and evening.
И уготоваша олтарь на основании его, понеже страх бе на них от людий земных, и вознесоша на том всесожжение Господеви утро и в вечер:
4 And they kept the feast of tabernacles, according to that which was written, and [offered] whole burnt offerings daily in number according to the ordinance, the exact daily rate.
и сотвориша праздник кущей, якоже писано, и всесожжения на всяк день числом по повелению, дело дне в день свой:
5 And after this the perpetual whole burnt offering, and [offering] for the season of new moon, and for all the hallowed feasts to the Lord, and for every one that offered a free will offering to the Lord.
и посем всесожжения непрестанная и в новомесячия и во вся праздники Господеви освященныя, и о всяцем добровольно приносящем со усердием Господеви.
6 On the first day of the seventh month they began to offer whole burnt offerings to the Lord: but the foundation of the house of the Lord was not laid.
От перваго дне месяца седмаго начаша возносити всесожжения Господеви, дом же Господень не бе еще основан.
7 And they gave money to the stone-hewers and carpenters, and meat and drink, and oil, to the Sidonians, and Tyrians, to bring cedar trees from Libanus to the sea of Joppa, according to the grant of Cyrus king of the Persians to them.
И вдаша пенязи каменосечцем и древоделем, пищу же и питие и елей Сидоняном и Тиряном, да принесут древа кедрова от Ливана к морю Иоппийскому, якоже соизволи Кир царь Персский о них.
8 And in the second year of their coming to the house of God in Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zorobabel the [son] of Salathiel, and Jesus the [son] of Josedec, and the rest of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all who came from the captivity to Jerusalem, and they appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, over the workmen in the house of the Lord.
И в лето второе, внегда приити им к дому Божию во Иерусалим, месяца втораго нача Зоровавель сын Салафиилев и Иисус сын Иоседеков, и прочии от братии их священницы и левити, и вси, иже приидоша от пленения во Иерусалим, и поставиша левитов от двадесяти лет и вышше над творящими дела во храме Господни.
9 And Jesus and his sons and his brethren stood, Cadmiel and his sons the sons of Juda, over them that wrought the works in the house of God: the sons of Enadad, their sons and their brethren the Levites.
И ста Иисус и сынове его и братия его, Кадоил и сынове его, сынове Иудины, якоже муж един да единодушно настоят над творящими дела в дому Божии, сынове Инададовы, сынове их и братия их левити.
10 And they laid a foundation for building the house of the Lord: and the priests in their robes stood with trumpets and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the Lord, according to the order of David king of Israel.
И основаша созидающе дом Господень: и сташа священницы во украшении своем со трубами, и левити сынове Асафовы, в кимвалех да хвалят Господа, по уставу Давида царя Израилева:
11 And they answered [each other] with praise and thanksgiving to the Lord, [saying], For [it is] good, for his mercy to Israel [endures] for ever. And all the people shouted with a loud voice to praise the Lord at the laying the foundation of the house of the Lord.
и вопияху в песнех и исповедании Господеви, яко благ, яко в век милость Его над Израилем: и вси людие возглашаху гласом великим хваление Господу при основании дому Господня.
12 But many of the priests and the Levites, and the elder men, heads of families, who had seen the former house on its foundation, and [who saw] this house with their eyes, wept with a loud voice: but the multitude shouted with joy to raise a song.
И мнози от священников и левит, и князи отечеств и старейшины, иже видеша дом преждний на основании своем, и сей дом пред очесы своими, плакаху гласом велиим: и народ возглашающь, в веселии возвышаху:
13 And the people did not distinguish the voice of the glad shout from the voice of the weeping of the people: for the people shouted with a loud voice, and the voice was heard even from afar off.
и не можаху людие познати гласа восклицания веселящихся от гласов плача народнаго, понеже людие восклицаху гласом великим, и глас велик слышашеся издалеча.
