Ezra 8
1 This is a list of the names of the leaders of the clans who came with me up [to Jerusalem] from Babylonia when Artaxerxes was the king [of Persia]:
И сии князие отечеств их вождеве, иже взыдоша со мною в царство Артаксеркса царя Вавилонска:
2 Gershom, from the clan descended from [Aaron’s grandson] Phinehas Daniel, from the clan descended from [Aaron’s son] Ithamar Hattush, the son of Shecaniah, from the clan descended from King David
от сынов Финеесовых Гирсон, от сынов Ифамарих Даниил, от сынов Давидовых Аттус,
3 Zechariah and 150 [other] men from the clan descended from Parosh
от сынов Саханииных, от сынов Форосовых Захариа, и с ним мужей сто пятьдесят,
4 Eliehoenai the son of Zerahiah and 200 other men from the clan descended from Pahath-Moab
от сынов Фааф-Моава Елиана сын Сараиев, и с ним двести мужей,
5 Shecaniah the son of Jahaziel and 300 other men from the clan descended from Zattu
и от сынов Зафоисовых Ехениа сын Азиилев, и с ним триста мужей,
6 Ebed the son of Jonathan and 50 other men from the clan descended from Adin
и от сынов Адиных Овин сын Ионафанов, и с ним пятьдесят мужей,
7 Jeshaiah the son of Athaliah and 70 other men from the clan descended from Elam
и от сынов Едамлих Исаиа сын Афелиин, и с ним седмьдесят мужей,
8 Zebadiah the son of Michael and 80 other men from the clan descended from Shephatiah
и от сынов Сафатиевых Завдиа сын Михаилов, и с ним осмьдесят мужей,
9 Obadiah the son of Jehiel and 218 other men from the clan descended from Joab
и от сынов Иоавлих Авдиа сын Иеиилев и с ним двести осмьнадесять мужей,
10 Shelomith the son of Josiphiah and 160 other men from the clan descended from Bani
и от сынов Вааниевых Селимуф сын Иосефиев, и с ним сто шестьдесят мужей,
11 Zechariah the son of Bebai and 28 other men from the clan descended from [another man whose name was] Bebai
и от сынов Вавиевых Захариа сын Вавиев, и с ним двадесять осмь мужей,
12 Johanan the son of Hakkatan and 110 other men from the clan descended from Azgad
и от сынов Азгадовых Ионан сын Икатанов, и с ним сто десять мужей,
13 Also Eliphelet, Jeuel, and Shemaiah, who returned [here] later with 60 men from the clan descended from Adonikam
и от сынов Адоникамлих последнии, и сия имена их: Едифалаф, Иеиил и Самаиа, и с ним шестьдесят мужей,
14 And Uthai and Zaccur and 70 other men from the clan descended from Bigvai.
и от сынов Вагуаевых Уфай и Завуд, и с ними седмьдесят мужей.
15 I gathered all of them together at the canal that goes [from Babylon] to Ahava [town]. We set up our tents there and stayed there for three days. [During that time] I checked the lists of names and found out that there were priests [going with us], but no [other] descendants of Levi [who could help them in the temple].
Собрах же их к реце текущей ко Евии, и пребыхом ту три дни: исках же в людех и во священницех, и от сынов Левииных не обретох тамо.
16 So I summoned Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, two men whose names were Elnathan, and Jarib, Nathan, Zechariah, and Meshullam, who were all leaders [of the people]. I also summoned Joiarib and another Elnathan, who were wise.
И послах ко Елеазару, Ариилу, Семеию и к Маонану, и Иериву и Елнафаму, и Нафану и Захарии и Месолламу, и ко Иоариму и Елнафану, премудрых,
17 I sent them all to Iddo, the leader of the descendants of Levi, who was living in Casiphia [town], to request that he and his relatives and other men who had worked in the temple send to us some men who would [go/come with us to] work in God’s new temple [in Jerusalem].
и изведох их ко Адаю началнику на месте Касфиа и вложих во уста их словеса глаголати ко Адаю и братии его афинимом на месте Касфии, привести нам поющих в дом Бога нашего.
18 Because God was kind to us, they brought to us a man named Sherebiah and 18 of his sons and other relatives. Sherebiah was a very wise man, a descendant of Mahli, [who was a grandson] of Levi.
И приидоша к нам, понеже рука Бога нашего бе блага на нас, муж сахон от сынов Моолиевых сына Левиина, сына Израилева, и Саравиа, и сынове его и братия его осмьнадесять:
19 They also sent to us Hashabiah, along with Jeshaiah, descendants of [Levi’s son] Merari, and 20 of their relatives.
и Асевиа, и Исаиа от сынов Мерариных и братия его и сынове его двадесять:
20 They also sent 220 other men to work in the temple. Those men’s ancestors had been appointed by King David to assist the descendants of Levi [who helped the priests in the temple]. I listed/wrote the names of all those men.
и от нафинимов, ихже даде Давид и князие ко службе левитом, нафинимов двести двадесять, вси собрашася по именом.
21 There alongside the Ahava Canal, I told them that we all would (fast/abstain from eating food) and pray. I also told them that we should humble ourselves in the presence of our God. We prayed that God would protect us while we traveled, and also protect our children and our possessions/belongings.
И проповедах тамо пост близ реки Ауи, еже смиритися пред Господем Богом нашим, просити от Него пути праваго нам и чадом нашым и всему стяжанию нашему:
22 Previously we had told the king that our God takes care of all those who truly trust in him, but that he becomes very angry with those who refuse to obey him. So I would have been ashamed if I had asked the king to send soldiers and men riding on horses to protect us from our enemies while we were traveling along the road.
устыдехся бо испросити от царя силы и конник защитити нас от врага на пути, понеже рехом царю глаголюще: рука Бога нашего есть на всех ищущих Его во благое и крепость Его, ярость же Его на всех оставляющих Его.
23 So we (fasted/abstained from eating food) and requested God to protect us, and he (answered our prayers/did what we requested.)
Постихомся же и молихомся Богу нашему о сем, и услыша нас.
24 I chose twelve of the leaders of the priests, Sherebiah and Hashabiah and ten of their relatives.
И отлучих от князей священнических дванадесять, Сараию, Асавию и с ними от братии их десять:
25 I appointed them to supervise carrying to Jerusalem the gifts of silver and gold and the other valuable items that the king and his advisors and other officials, and the Israeli people [who were living in Babylonia], had contributed for the temple of our God.
возвеснх же им сребро и злато и сосуды начатков дому Бога нашего, яже вознесе царь и советницы его и князие его, и весь Израиль обретаяйся,
26 As I gave these various items to those priests, I weighed each of the items. This was the total: 25 tons of silver, 100 items made from silver that altogether weighed 7,500 pounds, (7,500 pounds/3,400 kg.) of gold,
и дах весом в руки их сребра талантов шесть сот пятьдесят, и сосудов сребряных сто, и злата сто талант,
27 20 gold bowls that altogether weighed (19 pounds/8.6 kg.), and two items made of polished bronze that were as valuable as ones made of gold.
и чаш златых двадесять, драхм тысящу, и сосуды меди светлыя добрыя различныя, драгоценныя яко злато,
28 I said to those priests, “You belong to Yahweh, the God whom our ancestors (worshiped/also belonged to), and these valuable things also belong to him. The people themselves gave these things to be offerings to Yahweh (voluntarily/because they wanted to).
и рекох им: вы святи Господу Богу, и сосуди святи и сребро и злато, еже волею вдано есть Господу Богу отец наших:
29 So guard them carefully, and [when we arrive] in Jerusalem, weigh them in the presence of the priests, the descendants of Levi [who will help the priests], and the other Israeli leaders there. They will then put them in the storerooms in the new temple.”
бдите и стрегите, дондеже весом отдадите пред князи священников и левитов и пред князи отечеств Израилевых во Иерусалиме, во скиниих дому Господня.
30 So the priests and [other] descendants of Levi took from me all the gifts of silver and gold and the other valuable items, in order to carry them to the temple in Jerusalem.
И прияша священницы и левити вес сребра и злата и сосудов, да вознесут во Иерусалим в дом Бога нашего.
31 On April 19, we left the Ahava Canal and started to travel to Jerusalem. Our God took care of us, and while we traveled, he prevented our enemies and bandits from (ambushing us/suddenly attacking us).
И воздвигохомся от реки Ауи во вторыйнадесять день месяца перваго, да идем во Иерусалим: и рука Бога нашего бе на нас и избави нас от рук вражиих и ратников на пути,
32 After we arrived in Jerusalem, we rested for three days.
и приидохом во Иерусалим и пребыхом ту три дни.
33 Then on the fourth/next day we went to the temple. There the silver and gold and the other items were weighed and given to the priest Meremoth, the son of Uriah. Eleazar the son of Phinehas and two descendants of Levi, Jozabad the son of Jeshua and Noadiah the son of Binnui, were with him.
И бысть в день четвертый, отдахом весом сребро и злато и сосуды в дому Бога нашего под руку Маримофа сына Урии священника, и с ним Елеазар сын Финеесов, и с ними Иозавад сын Иисусов и Ноадиа сын Ванаиев левити,
34 They counted everything, and wrote down how much they weighed, and wrote [a description of] each item.
по числу и весу вся: и написан бысть весь вес.
35 We who had returned from Babylonia offered to God sacrifices on the altar. We offered twelve bulls for all us Israeli people. We also offered 96 rams and 27 lambs. We also sacrificed twelve goats [to atone] for the sins that all the people had committed. These were all completely burned on the altar.
Во время то, иже приидоша от пленения сынове преселения, принесоша всесожжения Богу Израилеву, телцев дванадесять за всего Израиля, овнов девятьдесят шесть, агнцев седмьдесят седмь, козлов за грехи дванадесять, вся во всесожжение Господу.
36 Some of us who returned [from Babylonia] took to the governors and other officials of the province west of the [Euphrates] River the letter that the king had given to us. [After they read the letter, ] they did all [that they were able to do] for us Israeli people and for the temple of God.
И даша повеление царево правителем царским и князем, иже за рекою: и прославиша людий и дом Божий.
