Ezra 6
1 Potem je kralj Darej izdal odlok in narejena je bila preiskava v hiši zvitkov, kjer so bili v Babilonu shranjeni zakladi.
Then Darius the king made a decree, and the house of the archives, where the treasures were laid up in Babylon, was searched.
2 In tam pri Ahmeti, v palači, ki je v provinci Medijcev, je bil najden zvitek in v njem je bil tako zapisan zapis:
A scroll was found at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of Media, and in it this was written for a record:
3 ›V prvem letu kralja Kira je isti kralj Kir izdal odlok glede Božje hiše v Jeruzalemu: ›Naj bo hiša zgrajena, kraj, kjer so darovali daritve in naj bodo njeni temelji trdno položeni. Njena višina [naj bo] šestdeset in njena širina šestdeset komolcev,
In the first year of Cyrus the king, Cyrus the king made a decree: Concerning God’s house at Jerusalem, let the house be built, the place where they offer sacrifices, and let its foundations be strongly laid, with its height sixty cubits and its width sixty cubits;
4 s tremi vrstami velikih kamnov in vrsto iz novih tramov in stroški naj bodo poravnani iz kraljeve hiše.
with three courses of great stones and a course of new timber. Let the expenses be given out of the king’s house.
5 Tudi zlate in srebrne posode Božje hiše, ki jih je Nebukadnezar vzel iz templja, ki je v Jeruzalemu in jih prenesel v Babilon, naj bodo povrnjene in ponovno prinesene v tempelj, ki je v Jeruzalemu, vsako na svoj kraj in [naj] jih prinesejo v Božjo hišo.‹
Also let the gold and silver vessels of God’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple which is at Jerusalem and brought to Babylon, be restored and brought again to the temple which is at Jerusalem, everything to its place. You shall put them in God’s house.
6 ›Sedaj torej Tatenáj, voditelj onkraj reke, Šetár Boznáj in vaši družabniki, Afarsahejci, ki so onkraj reke, bodite daleč od tam.
Now therefore, Tattenai, governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and your companions the Apharsachites, who are beyond the River, you must stay far from there.
7 Pustite delo te Božje hiše. Naj voditelj Judov in starešine Judov zgradijo to Božjo hišo na njenem kraju.
Leave the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God in its place.
8 Poleg tega izdajam odlok, kaj boste naredili starešinam teh Judov za zgradbo te Božje hiše, da bodo od kraljevih dobrin, celó od davka onkraj reke, nemudoma izplačani stroški tem možem, da ne bodo ovirani.
Moreover I make a decree regarding what you shall do for these elders of the Jews for the building of this house of God: that of the king’s goods, even of the tribute beyond the River, expenses must be given with all diligence to these men, that they not be hindered.
9 In to, kar potrebujejo, tako mlade bikce kakor ovne in jagnjeta za žgalne daritve Bogu nebes, pšenico, sol, vino in olje, glede na določilo duhovnikov, ki so v Jeruzalemu, naj jim bo to čisto gotovo dano dan za dnem,
That which they have need of, including young bulls, rams, and lambs, for burnt offerings to the God of heaven; also wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the word of the priests who are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail,
10 da bodo lahko darovali žrtvovanje prijetnih vonjav Bogu nebes in molili za življenje kralja in njegovih sinov.
that they may offer sacrifices of pleasant aroma to the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king and of his sons.
11 Prav tako sem izdal odlok, da kdorkoli bo predrugačil to besedo, naj bo tram izvlečen dol iz njegove hiše in naj bo postavljen pokonci; naj bo tisti obešen nanj in naj bo zaradi tega njegova hiša narejena za gnojišče.
I have also made a decree that whoever alters this message, let a beam be pulled out from his house, and let him be lifted up and fastened on it; and let his house be made a dunghill for this.
12 In Bog, ki je svojemu imenu storil, da prebiva tam, naj uniči vse kralje in ljudstvo, ki bo svojo roko položilo, da spremenijo in uničijo to Božjo hišo, ki je v Jeruzalemu. Jaz, Darej, sem zapovedal ta odlok. Naj bo hitro uresničen.‹
May the God who has caused his name to dwell there overthrow all kings and peoples who stretch out their hand to alter this, to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree. Let it be done with all diligence.
13 Potem so Tatenáj, voditelj na tej strani reke, Šetár Boznáj in njihovi družabniki tako hitro storili glede na to, kar je kralj Darej poslal.
Then Tattenai, the governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and their companions did accordingly with all diligence, because Darius the king had sent a decree.
14 Starešine Judov so gradili in uspevali po prerokovanju prerokov Ageja in Idójevega sina Zaharija. Gradili so in to končali glede na zapoved Izraelovega Boga in glede zapovedi Kira, Dareja in Artakserksa, kralja Perzije.
The elders of the Jews built and prospered, through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. They built and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the decree of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.
15 Ta hiša je bila končana na tretji dan meseca adárja, ki je bil v šestem letu kraljevanja kralja Dareja.
This house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
16 Izraelovi otroci, duhovniki, Lévijevci in preostanek otrok iz ujetništva, so z radostjo praznovali posvetitev te Božje hiše.
The children of Israel, the priests, the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy.
17 Pri posvetitvi te Božje hiše so darovali sto bikcev, dvesto ovnov, štiristo jagnjet. In za daritev za greh za ves Izrael dvanajst kozlov, glede na število Izraelovih rodov.
They offered at the dedication of this house of God one hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve male goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
18 Postavili so duhovnike v svojih oddelkih in Lévijevce po svojih skupinah za Božjo službo, ki je v Jeruzalemu, kakor je to zapisano v Mojzesovi knjigi.
They set the priests in their divisions and the Levites in their courses, for the service of God which is at Jerusalem, as it is written in the book of Moses.
19 Otroci iz ujetništva so praznovali pasho na štirinajsti dan prvega meseca.
The children of the captivity kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
20 Kajti duhovniki in Lévijevci so bili skupaj posvečeni, vsi izmed njih so bili čisti in zaklali so pashalno jagnje za vse otroke iz ujetništva in za njihove brate duhovnike in zase.
Because the priests and the Levites had purified themselves together, all of them were pure. They killed the Passover for all the children of the captivity, for their brothers the priests, and for themselves.
21 Izraelovi otroci, ki so ponovno prišli iz ujetništva in vsi tisti, ki so se ločili pred umazanostjo poganov dežele, da iščejo Gospoda, Izraelovega Boga, so jedli
The children of Israel who had returned out of the captivity, and all who had separated themselves to them from the filthiness of the nations of the land to seek the LORD, the God of Israel, ate,
22 in z radostjo so sedem dni praznovali praznik nekvašenega kruha, kajti Gospod jih je naredil radostne in obrnil srce asirskega kralja k njim, da okrepi njihove roke v delu pri Božji hiši Izraelovega Boga.
and kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy; because the LORD had made them joyful, and had turned the heart of the king of Assyria to them, to strengthen their hands in the work of God, the God of Israel’s house.
