Ezra 5
1 Then the prophets, Haggai the prophet, and Zechariah the son of Iddo, prophesied to the Jews that [were] in Judah and Jerusalem in the name of the God of Israel, [even] to them.
Пророчествова же Аггей пророк и Захариа сын Аддов прорицание ко Иудеом, иже бяху во Иудеи и Иерусалиме, во имя Бога Израилева на них.
2 Then rose up Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and began to build the house of God which [is] at Jerusalem: and with them [were] the prophets of God helping them.
Тогда востаста Зоровавель сын Салафиилев и Иисус сын Иоседеков и начаста здати дом Божий, иже во Иерусалиме: и с нима пророцы Божии помогающе има.
3 At the same time came to them Tatnai, governor on this side of the river, and Shethar-boznai, and their companions, and said thus to them, Who hath commanded you to build this house, and to make up this wall?
В то время прииде к ним Фафанай князь сущий за рекою и Сафарвузанай и сослужителие их, и сия рекоша им: кто даде вам власть созидати дом сей и стены сия возставляти?
4 Then said we to them after this manner, What are the names of the men that make this building?
Тогда сия рекоша им: кая суть имена мужей созидающих град сей?
5 But the eye of their God was upon the elders of the Jews, that they could not cause them to cease, till the matter came to Darius: and then they returned answer by letter concerning this [matter].
И очи Божии на пленение Иудино, и не возбраниша им, дондеже послание к Дарию отнесено, и тогда послася с писмоносцем о сем.
6 The copy of the letter that Tatnai, governor on this side of the river, and Shethar-boznai, and his companions the Apharsachites, who [were] on this side of the river, sent to Darius the king:
Изявление послания, еже посла Фафанай князь об он пол реки и Сафарвузанай и сослужителие их Афарсахее, иже бяху за рекою, Дарию царю:
7 They sent a letter to him, in which was written thus; To Darius the king, all peace.
словесы послаша к нему, и сия писана в нем: Дарию царю мир всяк:
8 Be it known to the king, that we went into the province of Judea, to the house of the great God, which is built with great stones, and timber is laid in the walls, and this work proceedeth rapidly, and prospereth in their hands.
ведомо да будет царю, яко ходихом во Иудейскую страну к дому Бога великаго, и той созидается камением избранным, и древа ставятся в стенах, дело же то со тщанием строится и благопоспешается в руках их:
9 Then we asked those elders, [and] said to them thus, Who commanded you to build this house, and to erect these walls?
тогда вопросихом старейшин тех и тако рекохом им: кто даде вам власть дом сей созидати и стены сия возставляти?
10 We asked their names also, to certify thee, that we might write the names of the men that [were] the chief of them.
И о именех их вопросихом их, да возвестим тебе, яко да напишем тебе имена мужей, иже суть началницы их:
11 And thus they returned us answer, saying, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth, and build the house that was erected these many years ago, which a great king of Israel built and set up.
и сицева словеса отвещаша нам глаголюще: мы есмы раби Бога небесе и земли, и созидаем дом, иже бысть устроен прежде сего за лета многа, и царь Израилев великий созда его и соверши его им:
12 But after that our fathers had provoked the God of heaven to wrath, he gave them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, the Chaldean, who destroyed this house, and carried the people away into Babylon.
егда же прогневаша отцы наши Бога небеснаго, предаде их в руки Навуходоносора царя Вавилонскаго Халдеанина, и дом сей разори и люди преведе в Вавилон:
13 But in the first year of Cyrus the king of Babylon, [the same] king Cyrus made a decree to build this house of God.
но в лето первое Кира царя, Кир царь Вавилонский постави повеление, да дом Божий сей созиждется,
14 And the vessels also of gold and silver of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple that [was] in Jerusalem, and brought them into the temple of Babylon, those did Cyrus the king take out of the temple of Babylon, and they were delivered to [one], whose name [was] Sheshbazzar, whom he had made governor;
и сосуды дому Божия златыя и сребряныя, яже Навуходоносор взя из дому, иже во Иерусалиме, и отнесе я в храм Вавилонский, изнесе тыя Кир царь от храма Вавилонскаго и даде их Саванасару хранителю, иже над сокровищем,
15 And said to him, Take these vessels, go, carry them into the temple that [is] in Jerusalem, and let the house of God be built in its place.
и рече ему: вся сосуды сия возми и иди, и постави их в дому, иже есть во Иерусалиме, на место их:
16 Then came the same Sheshbazzar, [and] laid the foundation of the house of God which [is] in Jerusalem: and since that time even until now hath it been in building, and [yet] it is not finished.
тогда Саванасар той прииде и постави основание дому Божия во Иерусалиме, и от того времене даже доныне созидается, и еще не совершен есть:
17 Now therefore, if it [seemeth] good to the king, let there be search made in the king's treasure-house, which [is] there at Babylon, whether it is [so], that a decree was made by Cyrus the king to build this house of God at Jerusalem, and let the king send his pleasure to us concerning this matter.
и ныне аще (видится) царю благо, да посмотрит в дому сокровища царя Вавилонскаго, да увеси, яко от царя Кира бысть повеление созидати дом Божий сей, иже во Иерусалиме, и уведав о сем царь да послет к нам.
