Ezra 8
1 This is a list of the names of the leaders of the clans who came with me up [to Jerusalem] from Babylonia when Artaxerxes was the king [of Persia]:
А ово су главари домова отачких и племе оних што пођоше са мном из Вавилона за владе цара Артаксеркса:
2 Gershom, from the clan descended from [Aaron’s grandson] Phinehas Daniel, from the clan descended from [Aaron’s son] Ithamar Hattush, the son of Shecaniah, from the clan descended from King David
Од синова Финесових Гирсом; од синова Итамарових Данило; од синова Давидових Хатус;
3 Zechariah and 150 [other] men from the clan descended from Parosh
Од синова Сеханије, који беше од синова Фаросових, Захарија и с њим на број мушкиња сто и педесет;
4 Eliehoenai the son of Zerahiah and 200 other men from the clan descended from Pahath-Moab
Од синова Фат-Моавових Елиоинај син Зерајин и с њим мушкиња двеста;
5 Shecaniah the son of Jahaziel and 300 other men from the clan descended from Zattu
Од синова Сеханијиних син Јасилов и с њим мушкиња три стотине;
6 Ebed the son of Jonathan and 50 other men from the clan descended from Adin
И од синова Адинових Евед син Јонатанов и с њим мушкиња педесет;
7 Jeshaiah the son of Athaliah and 70 other men from the clan descended from Elam
И од синова Еламових Исаија син Аталијин и с њим мушкиња седамдесет;
8 Zebadiah the son of Michael and 80 other men from the clan descended from Shephatiah
И од синова Севатијиних Зевадија син Михаилов и с њим мушкиња осамдесет;
9 Obadiah the son of Jehiel and 218 other men from the clan descended from Joab
Од синова Јоавових Овадија син Јехилов и с њим мушкиња двеста и осамдесет;
10 Shelomith the son of Josiphiah and 160 other men from the clan descended from Bani
И од синова Селомитових син Јосифијин и с њим мушкиња сто и шездесет;
11 Zechariah the son of Bebai and 28 other men from the clan descended from [another man whose name was] Bebai
И од синова Вивајевих Захарија син Вивајев и с њим мушкиња двадесет и осам;
12 Johanan the son of Hakkatan and 110 other men from the clan descended from Azgad
И од синова Азгадових Јоанан син Акатанов и с њим мушкиња сто и десет;
13 Also Eliphelet, Jeuel, and Shemaiah, who returned [here] later with 60 men from the clan descended from Adonikam
И од синова Адоникамових последњих по имену Елифелет, Јеило и Семаја и с њима мушкиња шездесет;
14 And Uthai and Zaccur and 70 other men from the clan descended from Bigvai.
И од синова Вигвајевих Гутај и Завуд и с њима мушкиња седамдесет.
15 I gathered all of them together at the canal that goes [from Babylon] to Ahava [town]. We set up our tents there and stayed there for three days. [During that time] I checked the lists of names and found out that there were priests [going with us], but no [other] descendants of Levi [who could help them in the temple].
И сабра их код реке која тече у Аву, и онде стајасмо у логору три дана; после прегледах народ и свештенике али не нађох онде ни једног од синова Левијевих.
16 So I summoned Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, two men whose names were Elnathan, and Jarib, Nathan, Zechariah, and Meshullam, who were all leaders [of the people]. I also summoned Joiarib and another Elnathan, who were wise.
Зато послах Елијезера, Арила, Семају и Елнатана и Јарива и Елнатана и Натана и Захарију и Месулама и главаре, и Јојарива и Еланатана учитеље,
17 I sent them all to Iddo, the leader of the descendants of Levi, who was living in Casiphia [town], to request that he and his relatives and other men who had worked in the temple send to us some men who would [go/come with us to] work in God’s new temple [in Jerusalem].
И оправи их к Иду поглавару у месту Касифији, и научи их шта ће говорити Иду и браћи његовој Нетинејима у месту Касифији да би нам довели слуге за дом Бога нашег.
18 Because God was kind to us, they brought to us a man named Sherebiah and 18 of his sons and other relatives. Sherebiah was a very wise man, a descendant of Mahli, [who was a grandson] of Levi.
И доведоше нам, јер добра рука Божија беше над нама, човека разумног између синова Малија сина Левија сина Израиљевог, Серевију са синовима његовим и браћом његовом, њих осамнаест;
19 They also sent to us Hashabiah, along with Jeshaiah, descendants of [Levi’s son] Merari, and 20 of their relatives.
И Асавију и с њим Исаију од синова Мераријевих, с браћом његовом и њиховим синовима, њих двадесет,
20 They also sent 220 other men to work in the temple. Those men’s ancestors had been appointed by King David to assist the descendants of Levi [who helped the priests in the temple]. I listed/wrote the names of all those men.
И од Нетинеја, које одреди Давид и кнезови да служе Левитима, двеста и двадесет Нетинеја, који сви бише именовани поименце.
21 There alongside the Ahava Canal, I told them that we all would (fast/abstain from eating food) and pray. I also told them that we should humble ourselves in the presence of our God. We prayed that God would protect us while we traveled, and also protect our children and our possessions/belongings.
Тада огласих онде на реци Ави пост, да бисмо се понизили пред Богом својим и измолили у Њега срећан пут себи и деци својој и свему благу свом.
22 Previously we had told the king that our God takes care of all those who truly trust in him, but that he becomes very angry with those who refuse to obey him. So I would have been ashamed if I had asked the king to send soldiers and men riding on horses to protect us from our enemies while we were traveling along the road.
Јер ме беше стид искати од цара војске и коњика да нас бране од непријатеља путем, јер бејасмо рекли цару говорећи: Рука је Бога нашег на добро над свима који Га траже, и јачина је Његова и гнев на све који Га остављају.
23 So we (fasted/abstained from eating food) and requested God to protect us, and he (answered our prayers/did what we requested.)
Тако постисмо и молисмо Бога свог за то, и умолисмо Га.
24 I chose twelve of the leaders of the priests, Sherebiah and Hashabiah and ten of their relatives.
Тада одвојих између главара свештеничких дванаест, Серевију, Асавију и с њима десеторицу браће њихове.
25 I appointed them to supervise carrying to Jerusalem the gifts of silver and gold and the other valuable items that the king and his advisors and other officials, and the Israeli people [who were living in Babylonia], had contributed for the temple of our God.
И измерих им сребро и злато и судове, прилоге дому Бога нашег што приложи цар и саветници његови и кнезови његови и сав народ Израиљев који се нађе;
26 As I gave these various items to those priests, I weighed each of the items. This was the total: 25 tons of silver, 100 items made from silver that altogether weighed 7,500 pounds, (7,500 pounds/3,400 kg.) of gold,
Измерих им у руке шест стотина и педесет таланата сребра, и судова сребрних сто таланата и сто таланата злата,
27 20 gold bowls that altogether weighed (19 pounds/8.6 kg.), and two items made of polished bronze that were as valuable as ones made of gold.
И двадесет чаша златних од хиљаду драма, и два суда од бронзе добре и скупоцене као злато.
28 I said to those priests, “You belong to Yahweh, the God whom our ancestors (worshiped/also belonged to), and these valuable things also belong to him. The people themselves gave these things to be offerings to Yahweh (voluntarily/because they wanted to).
И рекох им: Ви сте свети Господу и ови су судови свети, и ово сребро и злато драговољан је прилог Господу Богу отаца ваших.
29 So guard them carefully, and [when we arrive] in Jerusalem, weigh them in the presence of the priests, the descendants of Levi [who will help the priests], and the other Israeli leaders there. They will then put them in the storerooms in the new temple.”
Пазите и чувајте докле не измерите пред главарима свештеничким и Левитима и главарима отачких домова Израиљевих у Јерусалиму у клетима дома Господњег.
30 So the priests and [other] descendants of Levi took from me all the gifts of silver and gold and the other valuable items, in order to carry them to the temple in Jerusalem.
И тако примише свештеници и Левити измерено сребро и злато и судове да однесу у Јерусалим, у дом Бога нашег.
31 On April 19, we left the Ahava Canal and started to travel to Jerusalem. Our God took care of us, and while we traveled, he prevented our enemies and bandits from (ambushing us/suddenly attacking us).
И пођосмо од реке Аве дванаестог дана првог месеца да идемо у Јерусалим, и рука Бога нашег беше над нама и избави нас из руку непријатељских и заседачких на путу.
32 After we arrived in Jerusalem, we rested for three days.
И дођосмо у Јерусалим и стајасмо онде три дана.
33 Then on the fourth/next day we went to the temple. There the silver and gold and the other items were weighed and given to the priest Meremoth, the son of Uriah. Eleazar the son of Phinehas and two descendants of Levi, Jozabad the son of Jeshua and Noadiah the son of Binnui, were with him.
А четврти дан измери се сребро и злато и судови у дому Бога нашег у руке Меримоту, сину Уријином свештенику, с којим беше Елеазар син Финесов, и с њима Јозавад син Исусов и Ноадија син Венујев, Левити.
34 They counted everything, and wrote down how much they weighed, and wrote [a description of] each item.
Све на број и на меру, и мера би записана од свега у исто време.
35 We who had returned from Babylonia offered to God sacrifices on the altar. We offered twelve bulls for all us Israeli people. We also offered 96 rams and 27 lambs. We also sacrificed twelve goats [to atone] for the sins that all the people had committed. These were all completely burned on the altar.
И који бише у ропству па се вратише из ропства принесоше на жртву паљеницу Богу Израиљевом дванаест јунаца за свега Израиља, деведесет и шест овнова, седамдесет и седам јагањаца, дванаест јараца за грех, све то на жртву паљеницу Господу.
36 Some of us who returned [from Babylonia] took to the governors and other officials of the province west of the [Euphrates] River the letter that the king had given to us. [After they read the letter, ] they did all [that they were able to do] for us Israeli people and for the temple of God.
И предаше заповести цареве намесницима царевим и кнезовима с ове стране реке и они потпомогоше народ и дом Божји.
