< Ezras 3 >

1 Kad nu septītais mēnesis atnāca, un Israēla bērni bija savās pilsētās, tad tie ļaudis sapulcējās Jeruzāleme tā kā viens vienīgs vīrs.
And when the seventh month drew near, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem.
2 Un Ješuūs, Jocadaka dēls, cēlās ar saviem brāļiem, tiem priesteriem un Zerubabels, Šealtiēļa dēls, ar saviem brāļiem, un uzcēla Israēla Dieva altāri, uz viņa upurēt dedzināmos upurus, kā stāv rakstīts Mozus, Tā Dieva vīra, bauslībā.
Then arose Jeshua' the son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealthiel, and his brethren, and they built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer thereon burnt-offerings, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
3 Un tie uzcēla to altāri savā vietā, gan bīdamies no tās zemes tautām, un uz tā upurēja dedzināmos upurus Tam Kungam, dedzināmos upurus rītos un vakaros,
And they erected the altar upon its foundations; for there was fear upon them because of the people of these countries; and they offered thereon burnt-offerings unto the Lord, burnt-offerings at morning and at evening.
4 Un turēja lieveņu svētkus, kā stāv rakstīts, un upurēja ikdienas dedzināmos upurus pēc tā skaita, kā pienācās, ikdienas savus;
And they celebrated the feast of tabernacles, as it is written, and [offered] the daily burnt-offerings by number, according to the prescribed manner, the offering of every day on its day;
5 Un pēc tam arī tos nemitējamos dedzināmos upurus un kā nākas jaunos mēnešos un visos, Tam Kungam svētītos svētkos un priekš ikviena, kas Tam Kungam atnesa kādu labprātības dāvanu.
And afterward the continual burnt-offering, and that for the new moons, and for all the feasts of the Lord that are hallowed, and that of every one who willingly offered a free-will offering unto the Lord.
6 No septītā mēneša pirmās dienas tie iesāka Tam Kungam upurēt dedzināmos upurus; bet Tā Kunga nama pamats vēl nebija likts.
From the first day of the seventh month began they to offer burnt-offerings unto the Lord: although the foundation of the temple of the Lord had not yet been laid.
7 Un tie deva naudu akmeņu cirtējiem un amatniekiem un ēst un dzert un eļļu Sidoniešiem un Tiriešiem, lai tie vestu ciedru kokus no Lībanus jūrmalā uz Jazu, kā Kirus, Persiešu ķēniņš, tiem bija vēlējis.
Then did they give money unto the masons, and to the carpenters; and food, and drink, and oil, unto the Zidonians and Tyrians, to bring cedar-trees from the Lebanon by sea to Joppa, according to the permission of Cyrus the king of Persia for them.
8 Tad nu otrā gadā pēc viņu atnākšanas pie Dieva nama Jeruzālemē, otrā mēnesī, Zerubabels, Šealtiēļa dēls, un Ješuūs, Jocadaka dēls, un tie atlikušie no viņu brāļiem, priesteri un leviti un visi, kas no cietuma zemes bija pārnākuši Jeruzālemē, iesāka un iecēla tos levitus, kas divdesmit gadus veci un pāri, par uzraugiem pie Tā Kunga nama darba.
And in the second year of their coming unto the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, did Zerubbabel the son of Shealthiel and Jeshua' the son of Jozadak, and the remainder of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all they that were come out of the captivity unto Jerusalem make a beginning; and they appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to superintend the work of the house of the Lord.
9 Un Ješuūs, viņa dēli un viņa brāļi, Kadmiēls un viņa dēli, un Jūda dēli stāvēja kā viens vienīgs vīrs, uzraugi būdami pār tiem, kas to darbu pie Tā Kunga nama darīja, tāpat Henadada bērni, viņu dēli un viņu brāļi, tie leviti.
Then stood forward Jeshua' with his sons and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, as one man, to superintend the workmen in the house of God; [also] the sons of Chenadad, their sons and their brethren the Levites.
10 Kad nu tie amatnieki Tā Kunga namam lika pamatu, tad nostādīja priesterus amata drēbēs ar bazūnēm un levitus, Asafa dēlus, ar pulkstenīšiem, To Kungu teikt ar Dāvida, Israēla ķēniņa dziesmām.
And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the Lord, they placed the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Assaph with cymbals, to praise the Lord, after the manner of David the king of Israel.
11 Un tie dziedāja viens par otru, To Kungu teikdami un slavēdami, ka Tas ir labs, un Viņa žēlastība paliek mūžīgi pār Israēli. Un visi ļaudis gavilēja ar lielu gavilēšanu, To Kungu teikdami, ka pamats bija likts Tā Kunga namam.
And they sang responsively in praise and thanksgiving unto the Lord; because he is good, for unto everlasting endureth his kindness toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout, while praising the Lord; because the foundation of the house of the Lord had been laid.
12 Bet daudz priesteru un levitu un cilts tēvu, kas bija veci, kas bija redzējuši to pirmo namu, kad tie šim namam redzēja pamatu liekam, tad tie raudāja gauži. Bet daudz atkal pacēla savas balsis ar gavilēšanu un ar prieku,
But many of the priests and Levites and chiefs of the divisions, the aged, who had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice, while many, shouting for joy, raised aloud their voice:
13 Tā ka tie ļaudis nevarēja izšķirt to gaviļu un prieka balsi no ļaužu raudāšanas, jo tie ļaudis gavilēja ar skaņu gavilēšanu, un tā skaņa bija tālu dzirdama.
So that the people could not distinguish the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people; for the people shouted with a loud shout, and the noise was heard ever so far off.
