Ezras 5
1 Un pravieši Hagaja un Zaharija, Idus dēls, sludināja tiem Jūdiem, kas Jūdā un Jeruzālemē dzīvoja, - Israēla Dieva vārdā tie uz viņiem runāja.
And the prophets have prophesied (Haggai the prophet, and Zechariah son of Iddo) to the Jews who [are] in Judah and in Jerusalem, in the Name of the God of Israel—to them.
2 Tad Zerubabels, Šealtiēļa dēls, un Ješuūs, Jocadaka dēls, cēlās un sāka uzcelt Dieva namu Jeruzālemē, un līdz ar tiem tie Dieva pravieši, kas tos iedrošināja.
Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua son of Jozadak, have risen, and begun to build the house of God, that [is] in Jerusalem, and with them are the prophets of God supporting them.
3 Tanī laikā pie tiem atnāca Tatnajs, zemes valdītājs viņpus upes, un ŠetarBoznajs ar saviem biedriem, un uz tiem tā sacīja: kas jums atvēlējis, šo namu uztaisīt un šo mūri uzcelt?
At that time have come to them Tatnai, governor beyond the river, and Shethar-Boznai, and their companions, and thus they are saying to them, “Who has made for you a decree to build this house, and to finish this wall?”
4 Tad mēs viņiem sacījām to vīru vārdus, kas šo darbu taisīja.
Then we have said thus to them, “What [are] the names of the men who are building this building?”
5 Bet viņu Dieva acs bija pār Jūdu vecajiem, ka tie viņus neaizkavēja, kamēr šī lieta Dārijam nāca zināma un tie grāmatu par to dabūja atpakaļ.
And the eye of their God has been on [the] elders of [the] Jews, and they have not caused them to cease until [the] matter goes to Darius, and then they send back a letter concerning this thing.
6 Šis ir tās grāmatas raksts, ko Tatnajs, zemes valdītājs viņpus upes, ar ŠetarBoznaju un viņa biedriem, Avarzaķiešiem, kas viņpus upes dzīvoja, rakstīja ķēniņam Dārijam.
The copy of a letter that Tatnai, governor beyond the river, has sent, and Shethar-Boznai and his companions, the Apharsachites who [are] beyond the river, to Darius the king.
7 Tie sūtīja viņam grāmatu un tanī tā bija rakstīts: viss miers lai ir ķēniņam Dārijam.
A letter they have sent to him, and thus is it written in it:
8 Ķēniņam lai ir zināms, ka mēs esam nogājuši Jūda zemē tā lielā Dieva namā, kas top uzcelts no cirstiem akmeņiem, un baļķi top ielikti sienās, un darbs top tikuši(rūpīgi) darīts un izdodas labi caur viņu rokām.
“To Darius the king, all peace! Be it known to the king that we have gone to the province of Judah, to the great house of God, and it is built [with] rolled stones, and wood is placed in the walls, and this work is done speedily, and prospering in their hand.
9 Mēs tad esam vaicājuši tos vecajus un uz viņiem sacījuši: kas jums atvēlējis, šo namu uzcelt un šo mūri uztaisīt?
Then we have asked of these elders, thus we have said to them, Who has made for you a decree to build this house, and to finish this wall?
10 Mēs arī viņu vārdus esam izprasījuši no tiem, tev dot ziņu un rakstīt to vīru vārdus, kas viņu virsnieki.
And also their names we have asked of them, to let you know, that we might write the names of the men who [are] at their head.
11 Bet tie mums atdeva tādu atbildi un sacīja: mēs esam debesu un zemes Dieva kalpi un uzceļam to namu, kas jau sen priekšgados bijis uzcelts, jo liels Israēla ķēniņš to uzcēlis un pabeidzis.
And thus they have returned us word, saying, We [are] servants of the God of the heavens and earth, and are building the house that was built many years before this, that a great king of Israel built and finished:
12 Tādēļ vien ka mūsu tēvi bija apkaitinājuši to debesu Dievu, viņš tos nodevis Kaldeja NebukadNecara, Bābeles ķēniņa, rokā, un tas šo namu nopostījis un tos ļaudis aizvedis cietumā uz Bābeli.
but after that our fathers made the God of the heavens angry, he gave them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon the Chaldean, and this house he destroyed, and the people he removed to Babylon;
13 Bet Bābeles ķēniņa Kirus pirmā gadā ķēniņš Kirus pavēlējis, šo Dieva namu uzcelt.
but in the first year of Cyrus king of Babylon, Cyrus the king made a decree to build this house of God,
14 Un arī Dieva nama zelta un sudraba traukus, ko NebukadNecars izvedis no Dieva nama Jeruzālemē un tos novedis sava dieva namā uz Bābeli, tos ķēniņš Kirus ir ņēmis no Bābeles dieva nama, un tie ir atdoti vienam ar vārdu Šešbacars, ko viņš bija iecēlis par zemes valdītāju.
and also, the vessels of the house of God, of gold and silver, that Nebuchadnezzar had taken forth out of the temple that [is] in Jerusalem, and brought them to the temple of Babylon, them has Cyrus the king brought forth out of the temple of Babylon, and they have been given to [one], Sheshbazzar [is] his name, whom he made governor,
15 Un viņš uz to sacīja: ņem šos traukus, ej un noved tos uz to Dieva namu, kas Jeruzālemē, un lai tas Dieva nams top uzcelts savā vietā.
and said to him, Lift up these vessels, go, put them down in the temple that [is] in Jerusalem, and the house of God is built on its place.
16 Tad šis Šešbacars nāca un lika pamatu Dieva namam Jeruzālemē, un tā no tā laika līdz šim ir strādāts, bet ne pabeigts.
Then this Sheshbazzar has come—he has laid the foundations of the house of God that [is] in Jerusalem, and from there even until now it has been building, and is not finished.
17 Ja nu ķēniņam patīk, tad lai meklē ķēniņa mantu namā, kas Bābelē, vai tā ir, ka no ķēniņa Kirus pavēlēts, uzcelt Dieva namu Jeruzālemē, un lai ķēniņa pavēle par to mums top sūtīta.
And now, if it is good to the king, let a search be made in the treasure-house of the king, that [is] there in Babylon, whether it be that there was a decree made by Cyrus the king to build this house of God in Jerusalem, and the will of the king concerning this thing he sends to us.”
