1 Now these are the priests and the Levites who went up with Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra,
Ovo su svećenici i leviti koji su došli sa Zerubabelom, sinom Šealtielovim, i Ješuom: Seraja, Jeremija, Ezra,

Šemaja, Jojarib, Jedaja,
7 Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah. These were the chiefs of the priests and of their brothers in the days of Jeshua.
Salu, Amok, Hilkija i Jedaja. To su bili glavari svećenički i njihova braća za Ješuina vremena.
8 Moreover the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, who was over the thanksgiving, he and his brothers.
A leviti: Ješua, Binuj, Kadmiel, Šerebja, Juda i Matanija - ovaj potonji i njegova braća ravnali su hvalospjevima.
9 Also Bakbukiah and Unni, their brothers, were over against them according to their offices.
Bakbukja i Uni i braća njihova izmjenjivali su se s njima u službi.
10 Jeshua became the father of Joiakim, and Joiakim became the father of Eliashib, and Eliashib became the father of Joiada,
Ješua rodi Jojakima; Jojakim rodi Elijašiba, a Elijašib Jojadu;
11 and Joiada became the father of Jonathan, and Jonathan became the father of Jaddua.
Jojada rodi Jonatana, a Jonatan rodi Jaduu.
12 In the days of Joiakim were priests, heads of ancestral houses: of Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah;
U Jojakimovo vrijeme glavari svećeničkih obitelji bijahu: Serajine obitelji Meraja; Jeremijine Hananja;
13 of Ezra, Meshullam; of Amariah, Jehohanan;
Ezrine Mešulam; Amarjine Johanan;
14 of Malluch, Jonathan; of Shecaniah, Joseph;
Malukove Jonatan; Šebanijine Josip;

Hilkijine Hašabja; Jedajine Netanel.
22 As for the Levites, in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, there were recorded the heads of ancestral houses; also the priests, in the reign of Daryavesh the Persian.
U vrijeme Elijašiba, Jojade, Johanana i Jadue bili su popisani glavari levitskih obitelji i svećenici sve do kraljevanja Darija Perzijanca.
23 The sons of Levi, heads of ancestral houses, were written in the scroll of the chronicles, even until the days of Johanan the son of Eliashib.
Sinovi Levijevi: glavari obitelji bili su zabilježeni u Knjizi ljetopisa, do vremena Johanana, sina Elijašibova.
24 The chiefs of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua the son of Kadmiel, with their brothers over against them, to praise and give thanks, according to the commandment of David the man of God, watch next to watch.
Glavari levitski bili su: Hašabja, Šerebja, Ješua, Binuj, Kadmiel, a njihova braća, koja su stajala prema njima da pjevaju naizmjenično pohvale i zahvalnice prema uredbama Davida, Božjeg čovjeka,
25 Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were gatekeepers keeping the watch at the storehouses of the gates.
bijahu: Matanija, Bakbukja i Obadja. A Mešulam, Talmon i Akub, vratari, čuvali su stražu kod skladišta blizu vrata.
26 These were in the days of Joiakim the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the governor, and of Ezra the priest the scribe.
Ti su živjeli u vrijeme Jojakima, sina Ješue, sina Josadakova, i u vrijeme upravitelja Nehemije i književnika svećenika Ezre.
27 At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep the dedication with gladness, both with giving thanks, and with singing, with cymbals, stringed instruments, and with harps.
Kad je bila posveta jeruzalemskoga zida, potražili su levite svugdje gdje su stanovali da ih dovedu u Jeruzalem te proslave posvetu radošću, zahvalnicama i pjesmom uz cimbale, harfe i citre.
28 The sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the plain around Jerusalem, and from the villages of the Netophathites;
I skupiše se pjevači, sinovi Levijevi, iz kraja oko Jeruzalema, iz netofatskih sela,
29 also from Beth Gilgal, and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth: for the singers had built them villages around Jerusalem.
iz Bet Hagilgala, iz Gebe i polja Azmaveta: jer su pjevači sebi sagradili sela oko Jeruzalema.
30 The priests and the Levites purified themselves; and they purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.
Svećenici i leviti očistili su sebe, a zatim su očistili narod, vrata i zid.
31 Then I brought up the leaders of Judah onto the wall, and appointed two great companies who gave thanks and went in procession. One went on the right hand on the wall toward the Dung Gate;
Tada sam izveo judejske knezove na zid i sastavio dva velika zbora. Prvi je išao desno niza zid, prema Smetlišnim vratima;
32 and after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the leaders of Judah,
za njima su išli Hošaja i polovina judejskih knezova -
33 and Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam,
Azarja, Ezra i Mešulam,
34 Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah,
Juda, Benjamin, Šemaja i Jeremija,
35 and certain of the priests' sons with trumpets: Zechariah the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zakkur, the son of Asaph;
a od svećeničkih sinova s trubljama: Zaharija, sin Jonatana, sina Šemaje, sina Matanije, sina Mikaje, sina Zakura, sina Asafa,
36 and his brothers, Shemaiah, and Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, and Judah, Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God; and Ezra the scribe was before them.
s braćom njihovom Šemajom, Azarelom, Milalajem, Gilalajem, Maajem, Netanelom, Judom, Hananijem, s glazbalima Davida, Božjega čovjeka. A Ezra, književnik, išao je pred njima.
37 By the Fountain Gate, and straight before them, they went up by the stairs of the City of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, even to the Water Gate eastward.
Kod Izvorskih vrata popeli su se njima nasuprot kraj stepenica Davidova grada, zidnim usponom od Davidove palače sve do Vodenih vrata na istoku.
38 The other company of those who gave thanks went to meet them, and I after them, with the half of the people, on the wall, above the Tower of the Ovens, to the Broad Wall,
Drugi zbor, a za njim ja i polovica narodnih knezova, išao je nalijevo zidom i Pećkom kulom sve do Tržnog zida,
39 and above the Ephraim Gate, and by the Jeshanah Gate, and by the Fish Gate, and the Tower of Hananel, and the Tower of the Hundred, and as far as the Sheep Gate. And they stood still in the Gate of the Guard.
pa onda iznad Efrajimovih vrata, Starih vrata, Ribljih vrata, Hananelove kule, kule Meaha, sve do Ovčjih vrata. Zaustavili su se kod Zatvorskih vrata.
40 So stood the two companies of those who gave thanks in God's house, and I, and the half of the rulers with me;
Potom su oba zbora zauzela mjesto u Domu Božjem. Tako i ja i sa mnom polovica odličnika,
41 and the priests, Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets;
svećenici Elijakim, Maaseja, Minjamin, Mikaja, Elijoenaj, Zaharija, Hananija s trubama,
42 and Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. The singers sang loud, with Jezrahiah their overseer.
zatim Maaseja, Šemaja, Eleazar, Uzi, Johanan, Malkija, Elam i Ezer. Pjevači su pjevali pod ravnanjem Jizrahjinim.
43 They offered great sacrifices that day, and rejoiced; for God had made them rejoice with great joy; and the women also and the children rejoiced: so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.
Toga su dana prinesene velike žrtve, ljudi su dali oduška radosti, jer ih je Bog ispunio velikom radošću, veselile se i žene i djeca. I radost Jeruzalema čula se nadaleko.
44 On that day men were appointed over the storerooms, for the contributions, the first fruits, and the tithes, to gather into them from the fields of the cities the portions appointed by the law for the priests and Levites, for Judah rejoiced over the priests and the Levites who ministered.
U to su vrijeme postavljeni ljudi da nadziru spremišta prinosa, prvina, desetina i da s polja uz gradove sabiru dijelove koje Zakon dodjeljuje svećenicima i levitima. Jer su se Judejci radovali svećenicima i levitima koji su bili u službi.
45 They performed the duty of their God, and the duty of the purification, and so did the singers and the gatekeepers, according to the commandment of David, and of Solomon his son.
Oni su vršili službu Bogu svome i službu očišćenja - kao i pjevači i vratari - prema odredbi Davida i njegova sina Salomona.
46 For long ago in the days of David and Asaph there were directors of the singers and songs of praise and thanksgiving to God.
Jer od Davidovih i Asafovih dana, od davnine, postoje pjevački glavari i pjesme pohvalne i zahvalnice Bogu.
47 All Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave the portions of the singers and the gatekeepers, as every day required: and they set apart that which was for the Levites; and the Levites set apart that which was for the sons of Aaron.
Zato je sav Izrael u vrijeme Zerubabela i u Nehemijino vrijeme dan za danom davao dijelove određene za pjevače i vratare. Davali su levitima posvećene darove, a leviti su davali sinovima Aronovim.
