Nehemiah 13
1 Forsothe in that dai it was red in the book of Moises, in heryng of the puple; and it was foundun writun ther ynne, that Amonytis and Moabitis owen not entre in to the chirche of God til in to with outen ende;
U ono vrijeme čitala se narodu knjiga Mojsijeva i ondje se našlo zapisano da Amonac i Moabac ne smiju nikada ući u zbor Božji,
2 for thei metten not the sones of Israel with breed and watir, and thei hiriden ayens the sones of Israel Balaam, for to curse hem; and oure God turnede the cursyng in to blessyng.
jer nisu sinovima Izraelovima izašli u susret s kruhom i vodom, nego su čak najmili protiv njih Bileama da ih prokune, ali je naš Bog obratio kletvu u blagoslov.
3 Sotheli it was doon, whanne `thei hadden herd the lawe, thei departiden ech alien fro Israel.
Kad su čuli Zakon, isključili su iz Izraela sve strance.
4 And upon these thingis Eliasib, the prest, `was blameful, that was the souereyn in the tresorie of the hows of oure God, and was the neiybore of Tobie.
A prije toga svećenik Elijašib, postavljen nad sobama Doma Boga našega, bijaše svom rođaku Tobiji
5 Therfor he made to him a grete treserie, `that is, in the hows of God; and men kepynge yiftis, and encence, and vessels, and the tithe of wheete, of wyn, and of oile, the partis of dekenes, and of syngeris, and of porteris, and the firste fruytis of prestis, `weren there bifor him.
uredio prostranu sobu gdje su se prije ostavljali prinosi, tamjan, posuđe, desetine žita, vina i ulja, određene za levite, pjevače i vratare, i doprinosi za svećenike.
6 Forsothe in alle these thingis Y was not in Jerusalem; for in the two and thrittithe yeer of Artaxerses, kyng of Babiloyne, Y cam to the kyng, and in the ende of daies Y preiede the kyng.
U to vrijeme nisam bio u Jeruzalemu, jer sam trideset i druge godine babilonskog kralja Artakserksa otišao kralju; ali poslije nekog vremena izmolio sam u kralja
7 And Y cam in to Jerusalem, and Y vndurstood the yuel, which Eliasib hadde do to Tobie, to make to hym a tresour in the porchis of Goddis hows; and to me it semede ful yuel.
da se mogu vratiti u Jeruzalem. Tada doznadoh za zlo djelo što ga učini Elijašib uredivši Tobiji sobu u predvorjima Doma Božjega.
8 And Y castide forth the vessels of the hows of Tobie out of the tresorie;
To me veoma rasrdilo: izbacih iz sobe sav namještaj Tobijina stana
9 and Y comaundide, and thei clensiden the tresories; and Y brouyte ayen there the vessels of Goddis hous, sacrifice, and encence.
i naredih da se sobe očiste, zatim unesoh onamo posuđe Doma Božjega, prinose i tamjan.
10 And Y knew that the partes of dekenes weren not youun, and that ech man of the dekenes and of the syngeris, and of hem that mynystriden hadde fledde in to his cuntrei;
Doznadoh i to da levitima nisu davali njihovih dijelova i da su se i leviti i pjevači, određeni za službu, razbježali svaki u svoje polje.
11 and Y dide the cause ayens magistratis, and Y seide, Whi `forsaken we the hous of God? And Y gaderide hem togidere, `that is, dekenes and mynystris `that hadden go awei, and Y made hem to stonde in her stondyngis.
I prekorih odličnike i rekoh: “Zašto je zapušten Dom Božji?” Zatim skupih levite i pjevače i vratih ih k njihovim službama.
12 And al Juda brouyte the tithe of wheete, of wiyn, and of oile, in to bernes.
Tada je sva Judeja donosila u spremišta desetinu žita, vina i ulja.
13 And we ordeyneden on the bernes, Selemye, the prest, and Sadoch, the writere, and Phadaie, of the dekenes, and bisidis hem, Anan, the sone of Zaccur, the sone of Mathanye; for thei weren preued feithful men, and the partis of her britheren weren bitakun to hem.
Nad spremištima postavio sam svećenika Šelemju, književnika Sadoka i levita Pedaju, a uz njih Hanana, sina Zakura, sina Matanijina. Njih su smatrali pouzdanima; njihova je dužnost bila da dijele svojoj braći.
14 My God, haue mynde of me for this thing, and do thou not awei my merciful doyngis, whiche Y dide in the hows of my God, and in hise cerymonyes.
Zato, sjeti se mene, Bože moj: ne prezri mojih pobožnih djela koja učinih za Dom Boga svoga i za službu u njemu.
15 Yn tho daies Y siy in Juda men tredinge pressours in the sabat, `men bryngynge hepis, and chargynge on assis wiyn, and grapis, and figis, and al birthun, and `bringynge in to Jerusalem in the dai of sabat; and Y witnesside to hem, that thei schulden sille in the dai, in which it was leueful to sille.
U ono sam vrijeme vidio u Judeji ljude koji gaze u tijescima u dan subotnji; drugi su nosili snopove žita, tovarili na magarce vino, grožđe, smokve i svakojake terete da ih u dan subotnji unesu u Jeruzalem. I prekorih ljude što u taj dan prodaju živež.
16 And men of Tire dwelliden `in it, and brouyten in fischis, and alle thingis set to sale, and thei selden `in the sabatis to the sones of Juda and of Jerusalem.
A Tirci koji su živjeli u Jeruzalemu donosili su onamo ribu i svakovrsnu robu da je prodaju Židovima u subotu.
17 And Y rebuykide the principal men of Juda, and Y seide to hem, What is this yuel thing which ye doen, and maken vnhooli the daie of the sabat?
Prekorih judejske velikaše i rekoh im: “Kakvo to zlo djelo činite i skrnavite dan subotnji?
18 Whether oure fadris diden not these thingis, and oure God brouyte on vs al this yuel, and on this citee? and `ye encreessen wrathfulnesse on Israel, in defoulynge the sabat.
Nisu li tako činili i vaši oci te je Bog naš doveo svu ovu nesreću na nas i na ovaj grad? A zar vi želite umnažati gnjev protiv Izraela skrnaveći subotu?”
19 Forsothe it was doon, whanne the yatis of Jerusalem hadden restid in the dai of sabat, Y seide, Schitte ye the yatis; and thei schittiden the yatis; and I comaundide, that thei schuden not opene tho yatis til aftir the sabat. And of my children Y ordeynede noumbris on the yatis, that no man schulde brynge in a birthun in the dai of sabat.
I zapovjedih još da uoči subote, kad se mrak spusti na jeruzalemska vrata, zatvore njihova krila i rekoh neka se ne otvaraju do iza subote! Postavio sam nekoliko svojih momaka na vrata da se ne unosi nikakav tovar u dan subotnji.
20 And marchauntis, and men sillinge alle thingis set to sale dwelliden with out Jerusalem onys and twies.
Jednom su ili dvaput trgovci i prodavači svakovrsne robe proveli noć izvan Jeruzalema,
21 And Y aresonyde hem, and Y seide to hem, Whi dwellen ye euene ayens the wal? If ye doon this the secounde tyme, Y schal sette hond on you. Therfor fro that tyme thei camen not in the sabat.
ali sam ih upozorio i rekao im: “Zašto provodite noć pod zidom? Ako to ponovite, dignut ću na vas ruku!” Od toga vremena nisu više dolazili u subotu.
22 Also Y seide to dekenes, that thei schulden be clensid, and that thei schulden come to kepe the yatis, and to halowe the dai of sabat. And therfor for this thing, my God, haue mynde of me, and spare me bi the mychilnesse of thi merciful doyngis.
Zapovjedio sam levitima da se očiste i da dođu čuvati vrata, kako bi se svetkovao dan subotnji. I za ovo se spomeni mene, Bože moj, i smiluj mi se po svome velikom milosrđu!
23 But also in tho daies Y siy Jewys weddinge wyues, wymmen of Azotus, and wymmen of Amonytis, and wymmen of Moabitis.
Onih sam dana vidio i Židove koji se bijahu oženili Ašdođankama, Amonkama i Moapkama.
24 And her children spaken half part bi the speche of Ayotus, and kouden not speke bi the speche of Jewis, and thei spaken bi the langage of puple and of puple.
Polovica njihovih sinova govorila je ašdodski ili jezikom ovoga ili onoga naroda: više nisu znali govoriti židovski.
25 And Y rebuykide hem, and Y curside; and Y beet the men `of hem, and Y made hem ballid, and Y made hem to swere bi the Lord, that thei schulden not yyue her douytris to the sones of `tho aliens, and that thei schulden not take of the douytris of `tho aliens to her sones, and to hem silf;
Korio sam ih i proklinjao, neke sam i tukao, čupao im kose i zaklinjao ih Bogom: “Ne dajite svojih kćeri njihovim sinovima i ne uzimajte žene od njihovih kćeri za svoje sinove, a ni za sebe!
26 and Y seide, Whether Salomon, the kyng of Israel, synnede not in siche a thing? And certis in many folkis was no kyng lijk hym, and he was loued of his God, and God settide hym kyng on al Israel, and therfor alien wymmen brouyten hym to synne.
Nije li u tome sagriješio Salomon, kralj Izraelov? Među mnogim narodima nije bilo kralja njemu ravna. Bio je drag Bogu svome i Gospod ga je postavio kraljem nad svim Izraelom. Ali su i njega tuđinke navele na grijeh!
27 Whether also we vnobedient schulden do al this grete yuel, that we trespasse ayens `oure Lord God, and wedde alien wyues?
Treba li slušati kako i vi činite veliko zlo i postajete nevjerni Bogu našemu ženeći se tuđinkama?”
28 Forsothe Sanabalath Horonyte hadde weddid a douyter of the sones of Joiada, sone of Eliasib, the grete prest, which Sanaballath Y droof awei fro me.
Jedan od sinova Jojade, sina velikog svećenika Elijašiba, bijaše zet Horonjaninu Sanbalatu. Njega sam otjerao od sebe.
29 My Lord God, haue mynde ayens hem, that defoulen presthod, and the riyt of prestis and of dekenes. Therfor I clenside hem fro alle aliens, and I ordeynede ordris of prestis and of dekenes,
Spomeni se, Bože moj, ovih ljudi, jer su oskvrnuli svećeništvo i zavjet svećenički i levitski.
30 ech man in his seruice, and in the offring,
Tako sam ih očistio od svega tuđega i opet uspostavio službe svećenika i levita dodijelivši svakome njegov posao.
31 that is, dressing, of trees in tymes ordeyned, and in the firste fruytis. My God, haue mynde of me in to good.
Uredio sam i da se nose drva u određene dane i prvine. Sjeti me se, Bože moj, za moje dobro!
