< Ezra 6 >
1 Then Darius the king made a decree, and the house of the archives, where the treasures were laid up in Babylon, was searched.
Tada car Darije zapovjedi te tražiše u knjižnici gdje se ostavljaše blago u Vavilonu.
2 A scroll was found at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of Media, and in it this was written for a record:
I naðoše u Ahmeti u dvoru carskom u zemlji Midskoj knjigu u kojoj bješe zapisan ovaj spomen:
3 In the first year of Cyrus the king, Cyrus the king made a decree: Concerning God’s house at Jerusalem, let the house be built, the place where they offer sacrifices, and let its foundations be strongly laid, with its height sixty cubits and its width sixty cubits;
Prve godine cara Kira zapovjedi car Kir: dom Božji u Jerusalimu da se sazida da bude mjesto gdje æe se prinositi žrtve, i temelji da mu se izidaju, da bude visok šezdeset lakata i širok šezdeset lakata.
4 with three courses of great stones and a course of new timber. Let the expenses be given out of the king’s house.
Tri reda da budu od kamenja velikoga i jedan red od drveta novoga, a trošak da se daje iz carskoga doma.
5 Also let the gold and silver vessels of God’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple which is at Jerusalem and brought to Babylon, be restored and brought again to the temple which is at Jerusalem, everything to its place. You shall put them in God’s house.
I sudovi doma Božijega zlatni i srebrni što Navuhodonosor bješe uzeo iz crkve Jerusalimske i donio u Vavilon, da se vrate i opet odnesu u crkvu Jerusalimsku na svoje mjesto i da se ostave u domu Božijem.
6 Now therefore, Tattenai, governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and your companions the Apharsachites, who are beyond the River, you must stay far from there.
Zato Tatnaju upravitelju s one strane rijeke, Setar-Vosnaju s drugovima svojim Afarsašanima, koji ste s one strane rijeke, uklonite se odatle.
7 Leave the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the Jewish elders build this house of God in its place.
Ostavite neka se gradi taj dom Božji, upravitelj Judejski i starješine njihove neka zidaju taj dom Božji na mjestu njegovu.
8 Moreover I make a decree regarding what you shall do for these Jewish elders for the building of this house of God: that of the king’s goods, even of the tribute beyond the River, expenses must be given with all diligence to these men, that they not be hindered.
Još zapovijedam šta æete èiniti starješinama Judejskim da bi se sazidao taj dom Božji; od blaga carskoga, od dohodaka s one strane rijeke, da se daje bez oklijevanja trošak onijem ljudima da se ne ustavljaju.
9 That which they have need of, including young bulls, rams, and lambs, for burnt offerings to the God of heaven; also wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the word of the priests who are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail,
I što treba, bilo junaca ili ovnova i jaganjaca za žrtve paljenice Bogu nebeskomu, ili pšenice, soli, vina i ulja, kako reku sveštenici Jerusalimski, da im se daje svaki dan bez odgaðanja,
10 that they may offer sacrifices of pleasant aroma to the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king and of his sons.
Da prinose mirisne žrtve Bogu nebeskomu i da se mole za život carev i sinova njegovijeh.
11 I have also made a decree that whoever alters this message, let a beam be pulled out from his house, and let him be lifted up and fastened on it; and let his house be made a dunghill for this.
Još zapovijedam: ko bi uèinio drukèije, iz njegove kuæe da se uzme brvno i pobode, i on na njemu da se pogubi, i njegova kuæa da bude bunište za to.
12 May the God who has caused his name to dwell there overthrow all kings and peoples who stretch out their hand to alter this, to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree. Let it be done with all diligence.
I Bog koji je ondje nastanio ime svoje, da obori svakoga cara i svaki narod koji bi digao ruku da promijeni ovo i raskopa taj dom Božji u Jerusalimu. Ja Darije zapovijedam ovo, odmah da se izvrši.
13 Then Tattenai, the governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and their companions did accordingly with all diligence, because Darius the king had sent a decree.
Tada Tatnaj upravitelj s ove strane rijeke, Setar-Vosnaj i drugovi njihovi uèiniše odmah kako zapovjedi Darije.
14 The Jewish elders built and prospered, through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. They built and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the decree of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.
I starješine Judejske zidaše i napredovaše po proroštvu Ageja proroka i Zaharije sina Idova, zidaše i dovršiše po zapovijesti Boga Izrailjeva i po zapovijesti Kira i Darija i Artakserksa cara Persijskoga.
15 This house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
I svrši se taj dom do treæega dana mjeseca Adara šeste godine carovanja cara Darija.
16 The children of Israel, the priests, the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy.
I sinovi Izrailjevi, sveštenici i Leviti i ostali izmeðu onijeh koji se vratiše iz ropstva posvetiše taj dom Božji radujuæi se.
17 They offered at the dedication of this house of God one hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve male goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
I prinesoše na posveæenje toga doma Božijega sto junaca, dvjesta ovnova, èetiri stotine jaganjaca i dvanaest jaraca na žrtvu za grijeh za svega Izrailja prema broju plemena Izrailjevijeh.
18 They set the priests in their divisions and the Levites in their courses, for the service of God which is at Jerusalem, as it is written in the book of Moses.
I postaviše sveštenike po redovima njihovijem i Levite po redovima njihovijem da služe Bogu u Jerusalimu kako je napisano u knjizi Mojsijevoj.
19 The children of the captivity kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
Potom slaviše koji se vratiše iz ropstva pashu èetrnaestoga dana prvoga mjeseca.
20 Because the priests and the Levites had purified themselves together, all of them were pure. They killed the Passover for all the children of the captivity, for their brothers the priests, and for themselves.
Jer se oèistiše i sveštenici i Leviti, te bijahu svi èisti, i klaše pashu za sve koji se vratiše iz ropstva i za braæu svoju sveštenike i za sebe same.
21 The children of Israel who had returned out of the captivity, and all who had separated themselves to them from the filthiness of the nations of the land to seek the LORD, the God of Israel, ate,
I jedoše sinovi Izrailjevi koji se vratiše iz ropstva i svi koji se od neèistote naroda zemaljskih odvojiše k njima da traže Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva.
22 and kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy; because the LORD had made them joyful, and had turned the heart of the king of Assyria to them, to strengthen their hands in the work of God, the God of Israel’s house.
I praznovaše praznik prijesnijeh hljebova sedam dana veseleæi se; jer ih razveseli Gospod i obrati srce cara Asirskoga k njima da ukrijepi ruke njihove u poslu oko doma Boga, Boga Izrailjeva.
