< Ezra 3 >
1 After the Israeli people [returned to Israel, and] had begun to live in their towns, (in the autumn of/after the hot season ended in) that year, they all gathered together in Jerusalem.
Když pak nastal měsíc sedmý, a byli synové Izraelští v městech, shromáždil se lid jednomyslně do Jeruzaléma.
2 Then Jeshua, the son of Jehozadak, and his fellow priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and his friends, all began to rebuild the altar of God, the one whom the Israeli people [worshiped]. They did that in order that they could sacrifice burned offerings on it, according to what the prophet Moses had written in the laws [that God gave to him].
Tedy vstav Jesua syn Jozadakův s bratřími svými kněžími, a Zorobábel syn Salatielův s bratřími svými, vzdělali oltář Boha Izraelského, aby obětovali na něm oběti zápalné, jakož psáno jest v zákoně Mojžíše muže Božího.
3 Even though they were afraid of the people who were already living in that area, they rebuilt the altar at the same place [where the previous altar had been]. Before they started to lay the foundation of Yahweh’s temple, [the priests] started to burn sacrifices to Yahweh [on the altar]. They offered sacrifices every morning and every evening. Fifteen days after [they started to offer these sacrifices], the people celebrated the Festival of [Living in Temporary] Shelters, as [Moses] had commanded them to do in the laws [that God gave to him]. Each day the priests offered the sacrifices [that were required] for that day. In addition, they presented the regular burned offerings and the offerings [that were required] for the New Moon Festivals and the other festivals that they celebrated each year to [honor] Yahweh. They also brought other offerings only because they desired to bring them, [not because they were required to bring them].
A když postavili oltář ten na základích jeho, ačkoli se obávali národů jiných zemí, však obětovali na něm oběti zápalné Hospodinu, oběti zápalné ráno i večer.
Drželi také slavnost stánků, jakož psáno jest, obětujíce zápal na každý den, vedlé počtu a vedlé obyčeje každého dne,
A potom obět zápalnou ustavičnou, i na novměsíce i na každou slavnost Hospodinu posvěcenou, i od každého dobrovolně obětujícího dobrovolnou obět Hospodinu.
Od prvního dne toho měsíce sedmého počali obětovati zápalů Hospodinu, ačkoli chrám Hospodinův ještě nebyl založen.
7 Then the Israelis hired masons and carpenters, and they bought [logs from] cedar trees from the people of Tyre and Sidon [cities], and they gave those people food and wine and olive oil for the logs. They brought the logs down from [the mountains in] Lebanon [to the Mediterranean seacoast and then floated them along the coast of the Sea, ] to Joppa. King Cyrus permitted them to do that. [Then the logs were brought from Joppa inland up to Jerusalem].
I dali peníze kameníkům a řemeslníkům, též potravy a nápoje i oleje Sidonským a Tyrským, aby vezli dříví cedrové z Libánu k moři Joppen, podlé povolení jim Cýra krále Perského.
8 The Israelis started to rebuild the temple in the (spring/time before the hot season) of the second year after they returned to Jerusalem. Zerubbabel and Jeshua and all the people who had returned to Jerusalem worked on the building. All the (Levites/men who did work in the temple) supervised this work.
Léta pak druhého po jejich se navrácení k domu Božímu do Jeruzaléma, měsíce druhého, začali Zorobábel syn Salatielův, a Jesua syn Jozadakův, i jiní bratří jejich kněží a Levítové a všickni, kteříž byli přišli z toho zajetí do Jeruzaléma, a ustanovili Levíty od dvadcítiletých a výše, aby přihlédali k dílu domu Hospodinova.
9 Jeshua and his sons and his other relatives, and Kadmiel and his sons, who were descendants of Hodaviah, also helped to supervise the work. The family of Henadad, who were also all Levites, joined with them in supervising this work.
A tak postaven jest Jesua, synové jeho i bratří jeho, Kadmiel i synové jeho, synové Judovi spolu, aby přihlédali k dílu při domě Božím, potomci Chenadadovi, synové jejich i bratří jejich Levítové.
10 When the builders finished laying the foundation of the temple, the priests put on their robes and stood in their places, blowing their trumpets. Then the Levites, who were descendants of Asaph, clashed/banged their cymbals to praise Yahweh, just as King David had [many years previously] told [Asaph and the other musicians] to do.
A když zakládali grunty stavitelé chrámu Hospodinova, postavili kněží zobláčené s trubami, a Levíty, syny Azafovy s cymbály, aby chválili Hospodina vedlé nařízení Davida krále Izraelského.
11 They praised Yahweh and thanked him, and they sang this song about him: “He is very good [to us]! He faithfully loves us Israeli people, and he will love us forever.” Then all the people shouted loudly, praising Yahweh because they had finished laying the foundation of Yahweh’s temple.
I prozpěvovali jedni po druhých, chválíce a oslavujíce Hospodina, nebo dobrý jest, a že na věky trvá milosrdenství jeho nad Izraelem. Všecken také lid prokřikoval hlasem velikým, chválíce Hospodina, proto že založen byl dům Hospodinův.
12 Many of the [old] priests, Levites, and leaders of families remembered [what] the first temple [was like], and they cried aloud when they saw the foundation of this temple being laid [because they knew that the new temple would not be as beautiful as the first temple]. But the other people shouted joyfully.
Mnozí pak z kněží a z Levítů i z knížat čeledí otcovských, starci, kteříž byli viděli prvnější dům, když zakládali tento dům před očima jejich, plakali hlasem velikým. Mnozí nazpět prokřikovali s radostí hlasem velikým,
13 The shouting and the crying was very loud; [even people] far away could hear it.
Tak že lid nemohl rozeznati hlasu prokřikování radostného od hlasu plačícího lidu; nebo lid ten prokřikoval hlasem velikým, a hlas ten slyšán byl daleko.
