< Nechemijas 8 >
1 Kad nu septītais mēnesis atnāca, un Israēla bērni bija savās pilsētās, tad visi ļaudis sapulcinājās kā viens vienīgs vīrs laukā priekš Ūdens vārtiem un sacīja uz Ezru, to rakstu mācītāju, lai tas atnes Mozus bauslības grāmatu, ko Tas Kungs Israēlim bija pavēlējis.
And all the people gathered themselves together as one man in the street that was before the water gate; and they spoke to Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded to Israel.
2 Un priesteris Ezra atnesa bauslību draudzes priekšā, vīriem un sievām un visiem, kas to varēja saprast, pirmā dienā septītā mēnesī.
And Ezra the priest brought the law before the congregation both of men and women, and all that could hear with understanding, upon the first day of the seventh month.
3 Un lasīja no tās uz lauka Ūdens vārtu priekšā no pašas gaismas līdz pusdienai vīru un sievu priekšā, kas tik saprata, un visu ļaužu ausis (griezās) uz bauslības grāmatu.
And he read in it before the street that was before the water gate from the morning until midday, before the men and the women, and those that could understand; and the ears of all the people were attentive to the book of the law.
4 Un Ezra, tas rakstu mācītājs, stāvēja uz augsta koka krēsla, ko tie priekš tam bija uztaisījuši, un viņam sānis stāvēja Matatija un Šemus un Anaja un Ūrija un Hilķija un Maāseja viņam pa labo roku, un viņam pa kreiso roku Pedaja un Mišaēls un Malhija un Hašums un Hašbadanus, Zaharija, Mešulams.
And Ezra the scribe stood upon a pulpit of wood, which they had made for the purpose; and beside him stood Mattithiah, and Shema, and Anaiah, and Urijah, and Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right hand; and on his left hand, Pedaiah, and Mishael, and Malchiah, and Hashum, and Hashbadana, Zechariah, and Meshullam.
5 Un Ezra atdarīja to grāmatu priekš visu ļaužu acīm, jo viņš stāvēja augstāki nekā visi ļaudis, un kad viņš to atdarīja, tad visi ļaudis uzcēlās.
And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people; (for he was above all the people; ) and when he opened it, all the people stood up:
6 Un Ezra teica To Kungu, to lielo Dievu, un visi ļaudis atbildēja: Āmen, Āmen! Savas rokas paceldami, un locījās un metās uz savu vaigu zemē priekš Tā Kunga.
And Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with lifting their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped the LORD with their faces to the ground.
7 Un Ješuūs un Banus un Šerebija, Jamins, Akubs, Šabetajus, Hodija, Maāseja, Kelitus, Azarija, Jozabads, Hanans, Pelaja un tie leviti izskaidroja tiem ļaudīm bauslību, un tie ļaudis stāvēja savā vietā.
Also Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people to understand the law: and the people stood in their place.
8 Un tie lasīja no Dieva bauslības grāmatas tulkodami un izskaidrodami, ka lasot to varēja saprast.
So they read in the book in the law of God distinctly, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading.
9 Tad Nehemija, tas ir tas zemes soģis, un priesteris Ezra, tas rakstu mācītājs, un tie leviti, kas tos ļaudis mācīja, sacīja uz visiem tiem ļaudīm: šī diena Tam Kungam, jūsu Dievam, ir svēta, neesiet noskumuši un neraudat. Jo visi ļaudis raudāja, kad tie dzirdēja bauslības vārdus.
And Nehemiah, who is the Tirshatha, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites that taught the people, said to all the people, This day is holy to the LORD your God; mourn not, nor weep. For all the people wept, when they heard the words of the law.
10 Tad viņš uz tiem sacīja: Ejat, ēdiet treknu un dzeriet saldu, un sūtiet daļas tam, kam nekā nav sataisīts. Jo šī diena mūsu Kungam ir svēta. Tad nu neesiet noskumuši, jo prieks pie Tā Kunga ir jūsu stiprums.
Then he said to them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions to them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy to our Lord: neither be ye sad; for the joy of the LORD is your strength.
11 Un tie leviti apklusināja visus ļaudis sacīdami: esiet klusu; jo šī diena ir svēta, tāpēc neesiet noskumuši.
So the Levites stilled all the people, saying, Hold your peace, for the day is holy; neither be ye grieved.
12 Tad visi ļaudis gāja ēst un dzert un daļas sūtīt un lielu prieku darīt; jo tie tos vārdus bija sapratuši, kas tiem bija sacīti.
And all the people went their way to eat, and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great mirth, because they had understood the words that were declared to them.
13 Un otrā dienā visas tautas cilts virsnieki, priesteri un leviti sapulcējās pie rakstu mācītāja Ezras, klausīties bauslības vārdus.
And on the second day were gathered together the heads of the fathers of all the people, the priests, and the Levites, to Ezra the scribe, even to understand the words of the law.
14 Un tie atrada bauslībā, ka bija rakstīts, ko Tas Kungs caur Mozu bija pavēlējis, lai Israēla bērni lieveņos dzīvo pa tiem svētkiem septītā mēnesī.
And they found written in the law which the LORD had commanded by Moses, that the children of Israel should dwell in booths in the feast of the seventh month:
15 Un lai tie to izsludina un izsauc pa visām pilsētām un Jeruzālemē sacīdami: ejat ārā kalnos un atnesiet zarus no eļļas kokiem un zarus no meža eļļas kokiem un zarus no mirtu kokiem un zarus no palma kokiem un zarus no (citiem) kupliem kokiem, un taisāt lieveņus, tā kā ir rakstīts.
And that they should declare and proclaim in all their cities, and in Jerusalem, saying, Go forth to the mount, and fetch olive branches, and pine branches, and myrtle branches, and palm branches, and branches of thick trees, to make booths, as it is written.
16 Tā tie ļaudis izgāja ārā un atnesa un taisīja sev lieveņus, ikkatrs uz sava jumta un savos pagalmos un Dieva nama pagalmos un uz Ūdens vārtu lauka un uz Efraīma vārtu lauka.
So the people went forth, and brought them, and made themselves booths, every one upon the roof of his house, and in their courts, and in the courts of the house of God, and in the street of the water gate, and in the street of the gate of Ephraim.
17 Un visa draudze, tie, kas no cietuma bija pārnākuši, taisīja lieveņus un dzīvoja lieveņos. Jo Israēla bērni nebija tā darījuši no Jozuas, Nuna dēla, laika līdz šai dienai, un tur bija varen liela līksmība.
And all the congregation of them that had returned from the captivity made booths, and sat under the booths: for since the days of Joshua the son of Nun to that day had not the children of Israel done so. And there was very great gladness.
18 Un Dieva bauslības grāmata tapa ikdienas lasīta, no pirmās dienas līdz beidzamai dienai, un tie turēja svētkus septiņas dienas un astotā dienā to atsvēti, tā kā bija nolikts.
Also day by day, from the first day to the last day, he read in the book of the law of God. And they kept the feast seven days; and on the eighth day was a solemn assembly, according to the manner.
