Nehemiah 8
1 All the people gathered themselves together as one man into the wide place that was in front of the water gate; and they spoke to Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded to Israel.
Kad nu septītais mēnesis atnāca, un Israēla bērni bija savās pilsētās, tad visi ļaudis sapulcinājās kā viens vienīgs vīrs laukā priekš Ūdens vārtiem un sacīja uz Ezru, to rakstu mācītāju, lai tas atnes Mozus bauslības grāmatu, ko Tas Kungs Israēlim bija pavēlējis.
2 Ezra the priest brought the law before the assembly, both men and women, and all who could hear with understanding, on the first day of the seventh month.
Un priesteris Ezra atnesa bauslību draudzes priekšā, vīriem un sievām un visiem, kas to varēja saprast, pirmā dienā septītā mēnesī.
3 He read from it before the wide place that was in front of the water gate from early morning until midday, in the presence of the men and the women, and of those who could understand. The ears of all the people were attentive to the book of the law.
Un lasīja no tās uz lauka Ūdens vārtu priekšā no pašas gaismas līdz pusdienai vīru un sievu priekšā, kas tik saprata, un visu ļaužu ausis (griezās) uz bauslības grāmatu.
4 Ezra the scribe stood on a pulpit of wood, which they had made for the purpose; and beside him stood Mattithiah, Shema, Anaiah, Uriah, Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right hand; and on his left hand, Pedaiah, Mishael, Malchijah, Hashum, Hashbaddanah, Zechariah, and Meshullam.
Un Ezra, tas rakstu mācītājs, stāvēja uz augsta koka krēsla, ko tie priekš tam bija uztaisījuši, un viņam sānis stāvēja Matatija un Šemus un Anaja un Ūrija un Hilķija un Maāseja viņam pa labo roku, un viņam pa kreiso roku Pedaja un Mišaēls un Malhija un Hašums un Hašbadanus, Zaharija, Mešulams.
5 Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people (for he was above all the people), and when he opened it, all the people stood up.
Un Ezra atdarīja to grāmatu priekš visu ļaužu acīm, jo viņš stāvēja augstāki nekā visi ļaudis, un kad viņš to atdarīja, tad visi ļaudis uzcēlās.
6 Then Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God. All the people answered, “Amen, Amen,” with the lifting up of their hands. They bowed their heads, and worshipped the LORD with their faces to the ground.
Un Ezra teica To Kungu, to lielo Dievu, un visi ļaudis atbildēja: Āmen, Āmen! Savas rokas paceldami, un locījās un metās uz savu vaigu zemē priekš Tā Kunga.
7 Also Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodiah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people to understand the law; and the people stayed in their place.
Un Ješuūs un Banus un Šerebija, Jamins, Akubs, Šabetajus, Hodija, Maāseja, Kelitus, Azarija, Jozabads, Hanans, Pelaja un tie leviti izskaidroja tiem ļaudīm bauslību, un tie ļaudis stāvēja savā vietā.
8 They read in the book, in the law of God, distinctly; and they gave the sense, so that they understood the reading.
Un tie lasīja no Dieva bauslības grāmatas tulkodami un izskaidrodami, ka lasot to varēja saprast.
9 Nehemiah, who was the governor, Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people, “Today is holy to the LORD your God. Don’t mourn, nor weep.” For all the people wept when they heard the words of the law.
Tad Nehemija, tas ir tas zemes soģis, un priesteris Ezra, tas rakstu mācītājs, un tie leviti, kas tos ļaudis mācīja, sacīja uz visiem tiem ļaudīm: šī diena Tam Kungam, jūsu Dievam, ir svēta, neesiet noskumuši un neraudat. Jo visi ļaudis raudāja, kad tie dzirdēja bauslības vārdus.
10 Then he said to them, “Go your way. Eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to him for whom nothing is prepared, for today is holy to our Lord. Don’t be grieved, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.”
Tad viņš uz tiem sacīja: Ejat, ēdiet treknu un dzeriet saldu, un sūtiet daļas tam, kam nekā nav sataisīts. Jo šī diena mūsu Kungam ir svēta. Tad nu neesiet noskumuši, jo prieks pie Tā Kunga ir jūsu stiprums.
11 So the Levites calmed all the people, saying, “Hold your peace, for the day is holy. Don’t be grieved.”
Un tie leviti apklusināja visus ļaudis sacīdami: esiet klusu; jo šī diena ir svēta, tāpēc neesiet noskumuši.
12 All the people went their way to eat, to drink, to send portions, and to celebrate, because they had understood the words that were declared to them.
Tad visi ļaudis gāja ēst un dzert un daļas sūtīt un lielu prieku darīt; jo tie tos vārdus bija sapratuši, kas tiem bija sacīti.
13 On the second day, the heads of fathers’ households of all the people, the priests, and the Levites were gathered together to Ezra the scribe, to study the words of the law.
Un otrā dienā visas tautas cilts virsnieki, priesteri un leviti sapulcējās pie rakstu mācītāja Ezras, klausīties bauslības vārdus.
14 They found written in the law how the LORD had commanded by Moses that the children of Israel should dwell in booths in the feast of the seventh month;
Un tie atrada bauslībā, ka bija rakstīts, ko Tas Kungs caur Mozu bija pavēlējis, lai Israēla bērni lieveņos dzīvo pa tiem svētkiem septītā mēnesī.
15 and that they should publish and proclaim in all their cities and in Jerusalem, saying, “Go out to the mountain, and get olive branches, branches of wild olive, myrtle branches, palm branches, and branches of thick trees, to make temporary shelters, as it is written.”
Un lai tie to izsludina un izsauc pa visām pilsētām un Jeruzālemē sacīdami: ejat ārā kalnos un atnesiet zarus no eļļas kokiem un zarus no meža eļļas kokiem un zarus no mirtu kokiem un zarus no palma kokiem un zarus no (citiem) kupliem kokiem, un taisāt lieveņus, tā kā ir rakstīts.
16 So the people went out and brought them, and made themselves temporary shelters, everyone on the roof of his house, in their courts, in the courts of God’s house, in the wide place of the water gate, and in the wide place of Ephraim’s gate.
Tā tie ļaudis izgāja ārā un atnesa un taisīja sev lieveņus, ikkatrs uz sava jumta un savos pagalmos un Dieva nama pagalmos un uz Ūdens vārtu lauka un uz Efraīma vārtu lauka.
17 All the assembly of those who had come back out of the captivity made temporary shelters and lived in the temporary shelters, for since the days of Joshua the son of Nun to that day the children of Israel had not done so. There was very great gladness.
Un visa draudze, tie, kas no cietuma bija pārnākuši, taisīja lieveņus un dzīvoja lieveņos. Jo Israēla bērni nebija tā darījuši no Jozuas, Nuna dēla, laika līdz šai dienai, un tur bija varen liela līksmība.
18 Also day by day, from the first day to the last day, he read in the book of the law of God. They kept the feast seven days; and on the eighth day was a solemn assembly, according to the ordinance.
Un Dieva bauslības grāmata tapa ikdienas lasīta, no pirmās dienas līdz beidzamai dienai, un tie turēja svētkus septiņas dienas un astotā dienā to atsvēti, tā kā bija nolikts.
