Ezras 8

1 Šie nu ir viņu cilts virsnieki ar savu radu rakstu, kas ar mani (no Bābeles) aizgāja, kad Bābeles ķēniņš Artakserksus valdīja:

13 Un no Adonikama pēdējiem bērniem, kam šie vārdi: Elivelets, Jeīels un Šemaja, un ar tiem sešdesmit no vīriešu kārtas;

And of the sons of Adonikam, the last, whose names were Eliphelet, Jeuel, and Shemaiah; and with them sixty males.

14 Un no Biģevajus bērniem: Utajus un Zabuds, un ar tiem septiņdesmit no vīriešu kārtas.

And of the sons of Bigvai, Uthai and Zabbud; and with them seventy males.

15 Un es tos sapulcēju pie tās upes, kas tek uz Aķevu, un mēs tur apmetāmies trīs dienas. Tad es lūkoju uz tiem ļaudīm un priesteriem un neatradu neviena no Levja bērniem.

And I made them come together by the river flowing to Ahava; and we were there in tents for three days: and after viewing the people and the priests I saw that no sons of Levi were there.

16 Tad es sūtīju tos virsniekus, Eliēzeru un Ariēlu un Šemaju un Elnatanu un Jaribu un Elnatanu un Nātanu un Zahariju un Mešulamu, un tos mācītājus Jojaribu un Elnatanu,

Then I sent for Eliezer and Ariel and Shemaiah and Elnathan Jarib and Elnathan and Nathan and Zechariah and Meshullam, all responsible men; and for Joiarib and Elnathan, who were wise men.

17 Un sūtīju tos ar pavēli pie virsnieka Idus uz Kasifju. Un es liku tos vārdus viņu mute, ko tiem bija runāt uz Idu un viņa brāļiem, Dieva nama kalpotājiem Kazpijā, mums atvest kalpus priekš mūsu Dieva nama.

And I sent them to Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia, and gave them orders what to say to Iddo and his brothers the Nethinim at the place Casiphia, so that they might come back to us with men to do the work of the house of our God.

18 Un tā, kā mūsu Dieva labā roka bija pār mums, tie mums atveda IžZekelu no Maēlas, Levja dēla, Israēla dēla, bērniem, un Šerebiju ar viņa dēliem un viņa brāļiem, astoņpadsmit,

And by the help of our God they got for us Ish-sechel, one of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel; and Sherebiah with his sons and brothers, eighteen;

19 Un Hašabiju un arī Jezaju no Merarus bērniem, ar viņa brāļiem un ar viņa dēliem, divdesmit,

And Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brothers and their sons, twenty;

20 Un no tiem Dieva nama kalpotājiem, ko Dāvids un tie lielkungi bija pielikuši kalpot levitiem, divsimt un divdesmit, kas visi ar vārdu tika nosaukti.

And of the Nethinim, to whom David and the captains had given the work of helping the Levites, two hundred and twenty Nethinim, all of them specially named.

21 Tad es tur izsaucu gavēni pie Aķevas upes, ka mums bija pazemoties priekš sava Dieva vaiga un no viņa meklēt labu ceļu sev un saviem bērniem un visām savām mantām.

Then I gave orders for a time of going without food, there by the river Ahava, so that we might make ourselves low before our God in prayer, requesting from him a straight way for us and for our little ones and for all our substance.

22 Jo man bija kauns, no ķēniņa lūgties karaspēku un jātniekus, kas mums palīdzētu ceļā pret ienaidniekiem. Jo mēs uz ķēniņu bijām runājuši sacīdami: mūsu Dieva roka ir pār visiem, kas viņu meklē, tiem par labu, bet viņa spēks un bardzība pret visiem, kas no viņa atkāpjas.

For I would not, for shame, make request to the king for a band of armed men and horsemen to give us help against those who might make attacks on us on the way: for we had said to the king, The hand of our God is on his servants for good, but his power and his wrath are against all those who are turned away from him.

23 Tā mēs gavējām un lūdzām savu Dievu, un viņš mūs paklausīja.

So we went without food, requesting our God for this: and his ear was open to our prayer.

24 Un es atšķīru divpadsmit no priestera virsniekiem, Šerebiju, Hašabiju, un desmit no viņu brāļiem līdz ar viņiem.

So I put on one side twelve of the chiefs of the priests, Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers with them,

25 Un es tiem iesvēru to sudrabu un zeltu un tos traukus par cilājamo upuri mūsu Dieva namam, ko ķēniņš un viņa padoma devēji un viņa lielkungi un viss Israēls, cik atradās, bija dāvinājuši.

And gave to them by weight the silver and the gold and the vessels, all the offering for the house of our God which the king and his wise men and his captains and all Israel there present had given:

26 Es tad viņiem rokā iesvēru sešsimt piecdesmit talentus sudraba un simts talentus sudraba trauku un simts talentus zelta,

Measuring into their hands six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels, a hundred talents' weight, and a hundred talents of gold,

27 Un divdesmit zelta biķerus, tūkstoš drakmu vērtībā, un divus vara traukus no spoža laba vara, skaistus kā no zelta.

And twenty gold basins, of a thousand darics, and two vessels of the best bright brass, equal in value to gold.

28 Un es uz tiem sacīju: jūs esat svēti Tam Kungam, un tie trauki ir svēti līdz ar to sudrabu un zeltu, kas ir labprātības dāvana Tam Kungam, jūsu tēvu Dievam.

And I said to them, You are holy to the Lord and the vessels are holy: and the silver and the gold are an offering freely given to the Lord, the God of your fathers.

29 Esiet modrīgi un glabājiet to, kamēr jūs to iesverat priesteru un levitu virsniekiem un Israēla cilts virsniekiem Jeruzālemē Dieva nama kambaros.

Take care of them and keep them, till you put them on the scales before the chiefs of the priests and the Levites and the chiefs of the families of Israel, in Jerusalem, in the rooms of the house of the Lord.

30 Tad tie priesteri un leviti ņēma to iesvērto zeltu un sudrabu un tos traukus, tos nest uz Jeruzālemi uz mūsu Dieva namu.

So the priests and the Levites took the weight of silver and gold and the vessels, to take them to Jerusalem into the house of our God.

31 Un mēs aizgājām no Aķevas upes pirmā mēneša divpadsmitā dienā, iedami uz Jeruzālemi, un mūsu Dieva roka bija pār mums un mūs izglāba no ienaidnieku rokas, un no tiem, kas ceļā uz mums glūnēja.

Then we went away from the river of Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go to Jerusalem; and the hand of our God was on us, and he gave us salvation from our haters and those who were waiting to make an attack on us by the way.

32 Un mēs nonācām Jeruzālemē un palikām tur trīs dienas.

And we came to Jerusalem and were there for three days.

33 Un ceturtā dienā mēs iesvērām to sudrabu un zeltu un tos traukus mūsu Dieva namā Ūrijas dēlam, priesterim Meremotam rokā, un līdz ar viņu Eleazaram, Pinehas dēlam, un līdz ar viņiem Jozabadam, Ješuūs dēlam, un Noadijam, Benujus dēlam, levitiem,

And on the fourth day, the silver and the gold and the vessels were measured out by weight in the house of our God into the hands of Meremoth, the son of Uriah, the priest; and with him was Eleazar, the son of Phinehas; and with them were Jozabad, the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah, the son of Binnui, the Levites;

34 Pēc skaita un svara no visa, un viss tas svars tai laikā tapa uzrakstīts.

All was handed over by number and by weight: and the weight was put on record at that time.

35 Un to aizvesto bērni, kas no cietuma bija pārnākuši, upurēja dedzināmos upurus Israēla Dievam, divpadsmit vēršus priekš visa Israēla, deviņdesmit sešus aunus, septiņdesmit septiņas avis, divpadsmit āžus par grēku upuri, visu par dedzināmo upuri Tam Kungam.

And those who had been prisoners, who had come back from a strange land, made burned offerings to the God of Israel, twelve oxen for all Israel, ninety-six male sheep, seventy-seven lambs, twelve he-goats for a sin-offering: all this was a burned offering to the Lord.

36 Un tie atdeva ķēniņa pavēles ķēniņa zemes valdītājiem un zemes soģiem viņpus upes. Un šie aizstāvēja tos ļaudis un Dieva namu.

And they gave the king's orders to the king's captains and the rulers across the river, and they gave the people and the house of God the help which was needed.
