Greek · SeptuagintΠάντες οἱ ἱερόδουλοι, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν παίδων Σαλωμὼν τριακόσιοι ἑβδομηκονταδύο.
These came up from Thermeleth and Thelersas, Charaathalan leading them, and Aalar;
Greek · SeptuagintΟὗτοι ἀναβάντες ἀπὸ Θερμελὲθ, καὶ Θελερσὰς, ἡγούμενος αὐτῶν Χαρααθαλὰν, καὶ Ἀλάρ.
they could not shew their families or their stock, how they were of Israel: the sons of Dalan, the son of Baenan, the sons of Necodan, six hundred fifty and two.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ οὐκ ἠδύναντο ἀπαγγεῖλαι τὰς πατριὰς αὐτῶν καὶ γενεὰς, ὡς ἐκ τοῦ Ἰσραήλ εἰσιν· υἱοὶ Δαλὰν τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ Βαενὰν, υἱοὶ Νεκωδὰν, ἑξακόσιοι πεντη· κονταδύο.
And of the priests that usurped the office of the priesthood, and were not found: the sons of Obdia, the sons of Acbos, the sons of Jaddus, who married Augia one of the daughters of Phaezeldæus, and was named after his name.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐκ τῶν ἱερέων οἱ ἐμποιούμενοι ἱερωσύνης, καὶ οὐχ εὑρέθησαν, υἱοὶ Ὀβδία, υἱοὶ Ἁκβὼς, υἱοὶ Ἰαδδοὺ τοῦ λαβόντος Αὐγίαν γυναῖκα τῶν θυγατέρων Φαηζελδαίου, καὶ ἐκλήθη ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ.
And when the description of the kindred of these men was sought in the register, and was not found, they were removed from executing the office of the priesthood:
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ τούτων ζητηθείσης τῆς γενικῆς γραφῆς ἐν τῷ καταλοχισμῷ καὶ μὴ εὑρεθείσης, ἐχωρίσθησαν τοῦ ἱερατεύειν.
for unto them said Nehemias and Attharias, that they should not be partakers of the holy things, till there arose up an high priest clothed with doctrine and truth.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Νεεμίας καὶ Ἀτθαρίας, μὴ μετέχειν τῶν ἁγίων ἕως ἀναστῇ ἀρχιερεὺς ἐνδεδυμένος τὴν δήλωσιν καὶ τὴν ἀλήθειαν.
So of Israel, from them of twelve years old and upward, beside menservants and womenservants, they were all in number forty thousand, two thousand three hundred and sixty.
Greek · SeptuagintΟἱ δὲ πάντες Ἰσραὴλ ἦσαν ἀπὸ δωδεκαετοῦς καὶ ἐπάνω χωρὶς παίδων καὶ παιδισκῶν, μυριάδες τέσσαρες δισχίλιοι τριακόσιοι ἑξήκοντα.
Their menservants and handmaids were seven thousand three hundred thirty and seven: the singing men and singing women, two hundred forty and five:
Greek · SeptuagintΠαῖδες τούτων καὶ παιδίσκαι, ἑπτακισχίλιοι τριακόσιοι τριακονταεπτά. ψάλται καὶ ψαλτῳδοὶ, διακόσιοι τεσσαρακονταπέντε·
four hundred thirty and five camels, seven thousand thirty and six horses, two hundred forty and five mules, five thousand five hundred twenty and five beasts used to the yoke:
Greek · SeptuagintΚάμηλοι τετρακόσιοι τριακονταπέντε, καὶ ἵπποι ἑπτακισχίλιοι τριακονταὲξ, ἡμίονοι διακόσιοι τεσσαράκοντα πέντε, ὑποζύλια πεντακισχίλια πεντακόσια εἰκοσιπέντε.
And certain of the chief of their families, when they came to the temple of God that is in Jerusalem, vowed to set up the house again in his own place according to their ability,
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐκ τῶν ἡγουμένων κατὰ τὰς πατριὰς ἐν τῷ παραγίνεσθαι αὐτούς εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ τὸ ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, ηὔξαντο ἐγεῖραι τὸν οἶκον ἐπὶ τοὺ τοῦ τόπου αὐτοῦ κατὰ τὴν αὐτῶν δύναμιν,
and to give into the holy treasury of the works a thousand pounds of gold, five thousand of silver, and an hundred priestly vestments.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ δοῦναι εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν γαζοφυλάκιον τῶν ἔργων, χρυσίου μνᾶς χιλίας καὶ ἀργυρίου μνᾶς πεντακισχιλίας, καὶ στολὰς ἱερατικὰς ἑκατόν.
And so dwelt the priests and the Levites and the people in Jerusalem, and in the country, the singers also and the porters; and all Israel in their villages.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ κατῳκίσθησαν οἱ ἱερεῖς, καὶ οἱ Λευεῖται, καὶ οἱ ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ καὶ τῇ χώρᾳ, οἵ τε ἱεροψάλται, καὶ οἱ θυρωροὶ, καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ ἐν ταῖς κώμαις αὐτῶν.
But when the seventh month was at hand, and when the children of Israel were every man in his own place, they came altogether with one consent into the open place of the first gate which is toward the east.
Greek · SeptuagintἘνστάντος δὲ τοῦ ἑβδόμον μηνὸς, καὶ ὄντων τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἑκάστου ἐν τοῖς ἰδίοις, συνήχθησαν ὁμοθυμαδὸν εἰς τὸ εὐρύχωρον τοῦ πρώτου πυλῶνος τοῦ πρὸς τῇ ἀνατολῇ.
Then stood up Jesus the son of Josedec, and his brethren the priests, and Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, and his brethren, and made ready the altar of the God of Israel,
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ καταστὰς Ἰησοῦς ὁ τοῦ Ἰωσεδὲκ καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ οἱ ἱερεῖς, καὶ Ζοροβάβελ ὁ τοῦ Σαλαθιὴλ καὶ οἱ τούτου ἀδελφοὶ, ἡτοίμασαν τὸ θυσιαστήριον τοῦ Θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ,
to offer burnt sacrifices upon it, according as it is expressly commanded in the book of Moses the man of God.
Greek · Septuagintπροσενέγκαι ἐπʼ αὐτοῦ ὁλοκαυτώσεις, ἀκολούθως τοῖς ἐν τῇ Μωσέως βίβλῳ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου τοῦ Θεοῦ διηγορευμένοις.
And there were gathered unto them out of the other nations of the land, and they erected the altar upon his own place, because all the nations of the land were at enmity with them, and oppressed them; and they offered sacrifices according to the time, and burnt offerings to the Lord both morning and evening.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐπισυνήχθησαν αὐτοῖς ἐκ τῶν ἄλλων ἐθνῶν τῆς γῆς, καὶ κατώρθωσαν τὸ θυσιαστήριον ἐπὶ τοῦ τόπου αὐτῶν, ὅτι ἐν ἔχθρᾳ ἦσαν αὐτοῖς, καὶ κατίσχυσαν αὐτοὺς πάντα τὰ ἔθνη τὰ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς· καὶ ἀνέφερον θυσίας κατὰ τὸν καιρὸν, καὶ ὁλοκαυτώματα Κυρίῳ τὸ πρωϊνὸν καὶ τὸ δειλινόν.
Also they held the feast of tabernacles, as it is commanded in the law, and [offered] sacrifices daily, as was meet:
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐγάγοσαν τὴν τῆς σκηνοπηγίας ἑορτὴν, ὡς ἐπιτέτακται ἐν τῷ νόμῳ, καὶ θυσίας καθʼ ἡμέραν, ὡς προσῆκον ἦν·
and after that, the continual oblations, and the sacrifice of the sabbaths, and of the new moons, and of all holy feasts.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ μετὰ ταῦτα προσφορὰς ἐνδελεχισμοῦ, καὶ θυσίας σαββάτων καὶ νουμηνιῶν καὶ ἑορτῶν πασῶν ἡγιασμένων.
And all they that had made any vow to God began to offer sacrifices to God from the first day of the seventh month, although the temple of the Lord was not yet built.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ὅσοι ηὔξαντο εὐχὴν τῷ Θεῷ ἀπὸ τῆς νουμηνίας τοῦ ἑβδόμου μηνὸς, ἤρξαντο προσφέρειν θυσίας τῷ Θεῷ, καὶ ὁ ναὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ οὔπω ᾠκοδόμητο.
And they gave unto the masons and carpenters money, meat, and drink, with cheerfulness.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἔδωκαν ἀργύριον τοῖς λατόμοις καὶ τέκτοσι, καὶ ποτὰ καὶ βρωτὰ,
Unto them of Zidon also and Tyre they gave carrs, that they should bring cedar trees from Libanus, which should be brought by floats to the haven of Joppe, according as it was commanded them by Cyrus king of the Persians.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ χάῤῥα τοῖς Σιδωνίοις καὶ Τυρίοις εἰς τὸ παράγειν αὐτοὺς ἐκ τοῦ Λιβάνου ξύλα κέδρινα, διαφέρειν σχεδίας εἰς τὸν Ἰόππης λιμένα, κατὰ τὸ πρόσταγμα τὸ γραφὲν αὐτοῖς παρὰ Κύρου τοῦ Περσῶν βασιλέως.
And in the second year and second month after his coming to the temple of God at Jerusalem began Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, and Jesus the son of Josedec, and their brethren, and the priests, and the Levites, and all they that were come unto Jerusalem out of the captivity:
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ τῷ δευτέρῳ ἔτει παραγενόμενος εἰς τὸ ἰερὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ εἰς Ἱερονσαλὴμ μηνὸς δευτέρου, ἤρξατο Ζοροβάβελ ὁ τοῦ Σαλαθιὴλ, καὶ Ἰησοῦς ὁ τοῦ Ἰωσεδὲκ, καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτῶν, καὶ οἱ ἱερεῖς οἱ Λευῖται, καὶ πάντες οἱ παραγενόμενοι ἐκ τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ,
and they laid the foundation of the house of God in the first day of the second month, in the second year after they were come to Jewry and Jerusalem.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ ἐθεμελίωσαν τὸν ναὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ τῇ νουμηνίᾳ τοῦ δευτέρου μηνὸς τοῦ δευτέρου ἔτους, ἐν τῷ ἐλθεῖν εἰς τὴν Ἰουδαίαν καὶ Ἱερουσαλήμ.
And they appointed the Levites from twenty years old over the works of the Lord. Then stood up Jesus, and his sons and brethren, and Cadmiel his brother, and the sons of Emadabun, with the sons of Joda the son of Eliadud, with their sons and brethren, all Levites, with one accord setters forward of the business, labouring to advance the works in the house of the Lord. So the builders built the temple of the Lord.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἔστησαν τοὺς Λευίτας ἀπὸ εἰκοσαετοῦς ἐπὶ τῶν ἔργων τοῦ Κυρίου· καὶ ἔστη Ἰησοῦς, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ, καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ, καὶ Καδμιὴλ ὁ ἀδελφὸς, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἠμαδαβοὺν, καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰωδὰ τοῦ Ἡλιαδοὺδ σὺν τοῖς υἱοῖς καὶ ἀδελφοῖς, πάντες οἱ Λευῖται ὁμοθυμαδὸν ἐργοδιῶκται, ποιοῦντες εἰς τὰ ἔργα ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ τοῦ Κυρίου· καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν οἱ οἰκοδόμοι τὸν ναὸν τοῦ Κυριου.
And the priests stood arrayed in their vestments with musical instruments and trumpets; and the Levites the sons of Asaph had cymbals,
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἔστησαν οἱ ἱερεῖς ἐστολισμενοι μετὰ μουσικῶν καὶ σαλπίγγων,
singing songs of thanksgiving, and praising the Lord, according as David the king of Israel had ordained.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ οἱ Λευῖται υἱοὶ Ἀσὰφ ἔχοντες τὰ κύμβαλα ὑμνοῦντες τῶ Κυρίῳ, καὶ εὐλογοῦντες κατὰ Δαυὶδ βασιλέα τοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
And they sung [with] loud voices songs to the praise of the Lord, because his mercy and glory is for ever in all Israel.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐφώνησαν διʼ ὕμνων εὐλογοῦντες τῷ Κυρίῳ, ὅτι ἡ χρηστότης αὐτοῦ καὶ ἡ δόξα εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας ἐν παντὶ Ἰσραήλ.
And all the people sounded trumpets, and shouted with a loud voice, singing songs of thanksgiving unto the Lord for the rearing up of the house of the Lord.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ πᾶς ὁ λαὸς ἐσάλπισαν καὶ ἐβόησαν φωνῇ μεγάλῃ, ὑμνοῦντες τῷ Κυρίῳ ἐπὶ τῇ ἐγέρσει τοῦ οἴκου Κυρίου.
Also of the priests and Levites, and of the chief of their families, the ancients who had seen the former house came to the building of this with weeping and great crying.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἤλθοσαν ἐκ τῶν ἱερεων τῶν Λευιτῶν καὶ τῶν προκαθημένων κατὰ τὰς πατριὰς αὐτῶν, οἱ πρεσβύτεροι οἱ ἑωρακότες τὸν πρὸ τούτου οἶκον, πρὸς τὴν τουτου οἰκοδομὴν μετὰ κλαυθμοῦ καὶ κραυγῆς μεγάλης,
But many with trumpets and joy shouted with loud voice,
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ πολλοὶ διὰ σαλπιγγων καὶ χαρᾶς μεγάλῃ τῇ φωνῇ,
insomuch that the trumpets might not be heard for the weeping of the people; yet the multitude sounded marvellously, so that it was heard afar off.
Greek · Septuagintὥστε τὸν λαὸν μὴ ἀκούειν τῶν σαλπίγγων διὰ τὸν κλαυθμὸν τοῦ λαοῦ· ὁ γὰρ ὄχλος ἦν ὁ σαλπίζων μεγάλως, ὥστε μακρόθεν ἀκούεσθαι.
Wherefore when the enemies of the tribe of Juda and Benjamin heard it, they came to know what the noise of trumpets [should mean].
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἀκούσαντες οἱ ἑχθροί τῆς φυλῆς Ἰούδα καὶ Βενιαμὶν, ἤλθοσαν ἐπιγνῶναι τίς ἡ φωνὴ τῶν σαλπίγγων.
And they perceived that they that were of the captivity did build the temple unto the Lord God of Israel.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐπέγνωσαν ὅτι οἱ ἐκ τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας οἰκοδομοῦσι τὸν ναὸν τῷ Κυρίῳ Θεῷ Ἰσραήλ.
So they went to Zorobabel and Jesus, and to the chief of the families, and said unto them, We will build together with you.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ προσελθόντες τῷ Ζοροβάβελ, καὶ Ἰησοῦ, καὶ τοῖς ἡγουμένοις τῶν πατριῶν, λέγουσιν αὐτοῖς, συνοικοδομήσωμεν ὑμῖν.
For we likewise, as ye, do obey your Lord, and do sacrifice unto him from the days of Azbazareth the king of the Assyrians, who brought us hither.
Greek · SeptuagintὉμοίως γὰρ ὑμῖν ἀκούομεν τοῦ Κυρίου ὑμῶν, καὶ αὐτῷ ἐπιθύομεν ἀφʼ ἡμερῶν Ἀσβακαφὰς βασιλέως Ἀσσυρίων, ὃς μετήγαγεν ἡμᾶς ἐνταῦθα.
Then Zorobabel and Jesus and the chief of the families of Israel said unto them, It is not for us and you to build together an house unto the Lord our God.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Ζοροβάβελ καὶ Ἰησοῦς καὶ οἱ ἡγούμενοι τῶν πατριῶν τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ, οὐχ ἡμῖν καὶ ὑμῖν τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι τὸν οἶκον Κυρίῳ Θεῷ ἡμῶν.
We ourselves alone will build unto the Lord of Israel, according as Cyrus the king of the Persians hath commanded us.
Greek · SeptuagintἩμεῖς γὰρ μόνοι οἰκοδομήσωμεν τῷ Κυρίῳ τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ, ἀκολούθως οἷς προσέταξεν ἡμῖν Κύρος ὁ βασιλεὺς Περσῶν.
But the heathen of the land lying heavy upon the inhabitants of Judea, and holding them strait, hindered their building;
Greek · SeptuagintΤὰ δὲ ἔθνη τῆς γῆς ἐπικοιμώμενα τοῖς ἐν τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ καὶ πολιορκοῦντες, εἶργον τοῦ οἰκοδομεῖν,
and by their secret plots, and popular persuasions and commotions, they hindered the finishing of the building all the time that king Cyrus lived: so they were hindered from building for the space of two years, until the reign of Darius.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ βουλὰς δημαγωγοῦντες, καὶ συστάσεις ποιούμενοι, ἀπεκώλυσαν τοῦ ἀποτελεσθῆναι τὴν οἰκοδομὴν πάντα τὸν χρόνον τῆς ζωῆς τοῦ βασιλέως Κύρου· καὶ εἴρχθησαν τῆς οἰκοδομῆς ἔτη δύο ἕως τῆς Δαρείου βασιλείας.
Now in the second year of the reign of Darius, Aggeus and Zacharias the son of Addo, the prophets, prophesied unto the Jews in Jewry and Jerusalem in the name of the Lord God of Israel, which was upon them.
Greek · SeptuagintἘν δὲ τῷ δευτέρῳ ἔτει τῆς Δαρείου βασιλείας, ἐπροφήτευσεν Ἀγγαῖος καὶ Ζαχαρίας ὁ τοῦ Ἀδδὼ οἱ προφῆται ἐπὶ τοὺς τοὺς Ἰουδαίους τοὺς ἐν τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ καὶ Ἱερουσαλὴμ, ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι Κυρίου Θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐπʼ αὐτούς.
Then stood up Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, and Jesus the son of Josedec, and began to build the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, the prophets of the Lord being with them, [and] helping them.
Greek · SeptuagintΤότε στὰς Ζοροβάβελ ὁ τοῦ Σαλαθιὴλ καὶ Ἰησοῦς ὁ τοῦ Ἰωσεδὲκ, ἥρξαντο οἰκοδομεῖν τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Κυρίου, τὸν ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, συνόντων τῶν προφητῶν τοῦ Κυρίου, βοηθούντων αὐτοῖς.
At the same time came unto them Sisinnes the governor of Syria and Phenice, with Sathrabuzanes and his companions, and said unto them,
Greek · SeptuagintἘν αὐτῷ τῷ χρόνῳ παρῆν πρὸς αὐτοὺς Σισίννης ὁ ἔπαρχος Συρίας καὶ Φοινίκης, καὶ Σαθραβουζάνης καὶ οἱ συνεταῖροι,
By whose appointment do ye build this house and this roof, and perform all the other things? and who are the workmen that perform these things?
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ εἶπαν αὐτοῖς, τίνος ὑμῖν συντάξαντος τὸν οἶκον τοῦτον οἰκοδομεῖτε, καὶ τὴν στέγην ταύτην καὶ τὰ ἄλλα πάντα ἐπιτελεῖτε; καὶ τίνες εἰσὶν οἰκοδόμοι οἱ ταῦτα ἐπιτελοῦντες;
Nevertheless the elders of the Jews obtained favour, because the Lord had visited the captivity;
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἔσχοσαν χάριν, ἐπισκοπῆς γενομένης ἐπὶ τὴν αἰχμαλωσίαν, παρὰ τοῦ Κυρίου οἱ πρεσβύτεροι τῶν Ἰουδαίων,
and they were not hindered from building, until such time as signification was given unto Darius concerning them, and an answer received.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ οὐκ ἐκωλύθησαν τῆς οἰκοδομῆς, μέχρις οὗ ἀποσημανθῆναι Δαρείῳ περὶ αὐτῶν, καὶ προσφωνηθῆναι.
The copy of the letters which Sisinnes, governor of Syria and Phenice, and Sathrabuzanes, with their companions, rulers in Syria and Phenice, wrote and sent unto Darius; To king Darius, greeting:
Greek · SeptuagintἈΝΤΙΓΡΑΦΟΝ ἘΠΙΣΤΟΛΗΣ ἯΣ ἜΓΡΑΨΕΔΑΡΕΙΩ, ΚΑΙ ἈΠΕΣΤΕΙΛΑΝ. Σισίννης ὁ ἔπαρχος Συρίας καὶ Φοινίκης, καὶ Σαθραβουζάνης, καὶ οἱ συνεταῖροι οἱ ἐν Συρίᾳ καὶ Φοινίκῃ ἡγεμόνες, βασιλεῖ Δαρείῳ χαίρειν.
Let all things be known unto our lord the king, that being come into the country of Judea, and entered into the city of Jerusalem, we found in the city of Jerusalem the ancients of the Jews that were of the captivity
Greek · SeptuagintΠάντα γνωστὰ ἔστω τῶ κυρίῳ ἡμῶν τῷ βασιλεῖ, ὅτι παραγενόμενοι εἰς τὴν χώραν τῆς Ἰουδαίας, καὶ ἐλθόντες εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ τὴν πόλιν, κατελάβομεν τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους τῶν Ἰουδαίων ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ τῇ πόλει οἰκοδομοῦντας οἶκον τῷ Κυρίῳ μέγαν,
building an house unto the Lord, great [and] new, of hewn and costly stones, and the timber already laid upon the walls.
Greek · Septuagintκαινὸν διὰ λίθων ξυστῶν πολυτελῶν, ξύλων τιθεμένων ἐν τοῖς τοίχοις,
And those works are done with great speed, and the work goeth on prosperously in their hands, and with all glory and diligence is it made.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ τὰ ἔργα ἐκεῖνα ἐπὶ σπουδῆς γινόμενα, καὶ εὐοδούμενον τὸ ἔργον ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐν πάσῃ δόξῃ καὶ ἐπιμελείᾳ συντελούμενον.
Then asked we these elders, saying, By whose commandment build ye this house, and lay the foundations of these works?
Greek · SeptuagintΤότε ἐπυνθανόμεθα τῶν πρεσβυτέρων τούτων, λέγοντες, τίνος ὑμῖν προστάξαντος οἰκοδομεῖτε τὸν οἶκον τοῦτον, καὶ τὰ ἔργα ταῦτα θεμελιοῦτε;
Therefore to the intent that we might give knowledge unto thee by writing, we demanded of them who were the chief doers, and we required of them the names in writing of their principal men.
Greek · SeptuagintἘπηρωτήσαμεν οὖν αὐτοὺς, εἵνεκεν τοῦ γνωρίσαι σοι, καὶ γράψαι σοι τοὺς ἀνθρώπους τοὺς ἀφηγουμένους, καὶ τὴν ὀνοματογραφίαν ᾐτοῦμεν αὐτοὺς τῶν προκαθηγουμένων.
So they gave us this answer, We are the servants of the Lord which made heaven and earth.
Greek · SeptuagintΟἱ δὲ ἀπεκρίθησαν ἡμῖν, λέγοντες, ἐσμὲν παῖδες τοῦ Κυρίου τοῦ κτίσαντος τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν·
And as for this house, it was builded many years ago by a king of Israel great and strong, and was finished.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ ᾠκοδόμητο οἶκος ἔμπροσθεν ἐτῶν πλειόνων διὰ βασιλέως τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ μεγάλου καὶ ἰσχυροῦ, καὶ ἐπετελέσθη.
But when our fathers provoked God unto wrath, and sinned against the Lord of Israel which is in heaven, he gave them over into the power of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, king of the Chaldees;
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐπεὶ οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν παραπικράναντες ἥμαρτον εἰς τὸν Κύριον τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ τὸν οὐράνιον, παρέδωκεν αὐτοὺς εἰς χεῖρας Ναβουχοδονόσορ βασιλέως Βαβυλῶνος βασιλέως τῶν Χαλδαίων.
who pulled down the house, and burned it, and carried away the people captives unto Babylon.
Greek · SeptuagintΤόν τε οἶκον καθελόντες ἐνεπύρισαν, καὶ τὸν λαὸν ᾐχμαλώτευσαν εἰς Βαβυλῶνα.
But in the first year that king Cyrus reigned over the country of Babylon, Cyrus the king wrote to build this house.
Greek · SeptuagintἘν δὲ τῷ πρώτῳ ἔτει βασιλεύοντος Κύρου χώρας Βαβυλωνίας, ἔγραψεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Κύρος τὸν οἶκον τοῦτον οἰκοδομῆσαι·
And the holy vessels of gold and of silver, that Nabuchodonosor had carried away out of the house at Jerusalem, and had set them in his own temple, those Cyrus the king brought forth again out of the temple at Babylon, and they were delivered to Zorobabel, [that is], to Sanabassarus the ruler,
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ τὰ ἱερὰ σκεύη τὰ χρυσᾶ καὶ τὰ ἀργυρᾶ, ἃ ἐξήνεγκε Ναβουχοδονόσορ ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ἀπηρείσατο αὐτὰ ἐν τῷ αὐτοῦ ναῷ, πάλιν ἐξήνεγκεν αὐτὰ Κύρος ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐκ τοῦ ναοῦ τοῦ ἐν Βαβυλωνίᾳ, καὶ παρεδόθη Σαβανασσάρῳ Ζοροβάβελ τῷ ἐπάρχῳ,
with commandment that he should carry away the same vessels, and put them in the temple at Jerusalem; and that the temple of the Lord should be built in that place.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ ἐπετάγη αὐτῷ, καὶ ἀπήνεγκε πάντα τὰ σκεύη ταῦτα ἀποθεῖναι ἐν τῷ ναῷ τῷ ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ τὸν ναὸν τοῦ Κυρίου οἰκοδομηθῆναι ἐπὶ τοῦ τόπου.
Then the same Sanabassarus, being come hither, laid the foundations of the house of the Lord at Jerusalem; and from that time to this being still building, it is not yet finished.
Greek · SeptuagintΤότε ὁ Σαβανάσσαρος παραγενόμενος ἐνεβάλετο τοὺς θεμελίους τοῦ οἴκου Κυρίου τοῦ ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ἀπʼ ἐκείνου μέχρι τοῦ νῦν οἰκοδομούμενος οὐκ ἔλαβε συντέλειαν.
Now therefore, if it seem good unto the king, let search be made among the records of king Cyrus:
Greek · SeptuagintΝῦν οὖν εἰ κρίνεται, βασιλεῦ, ἐπισκεπήτω ἐν τοῖς βασιλικοῖς βιβλιοφυλακίοις τοῦ Κύρου,
and if it be found that the building of the house of the Lord at Jerusalem hath been done with the consent of king Cyrus, and if our lord the king be so minded, let him signify unto us thereof.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ ἐὰν εὑρίσκητε; μετὰ τῆς γνώμης Κύρου τοῦ βασιλέως γενομένην τὴν οἰκοδομὴν τοῦ οἴκου Κυρίου τοῦ ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ κρίνηται τῷ κυρίῳ βασιλεῖ ἡμῶν, προσφωνησάτω ἡμῖν περὶ τοῦτων.
Then commanded king Darius to seek among the records at Babylon: and so at Ecbatana the palace, which is in the country of Media, there was found a roll wherein these things were recorded.
Greek · SeptuagintΤότε ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαρεῖος προσέταξεν ἐπισκέψασθαι ἐν τοῖς βιβλιοφυλακίοις τοῖς κειμένοις ἐν Βαβυλῶνι· καὶ εὑρέθη ἐν Ἐκβατάνοις τῇ βάρει τῇ ἐν Μηδίᾳ χώρᾳ τόπος εἷς, ἐν ῷ ὑπομνημάτιστο τάδε.
In the first year of the reign of Cyrus, king Cyrus commanded that the house of the Lord at Jerusalem should be built again, where they do sacrifice with continual fire:
Greek · SeptuagintἜτους πρώτου βασιλεύοντος Κύρου, βασιλεὺς Κύρος προσέταξε τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Κυρίου τὸν ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ οἰκοδομῆσαι, ὅπου ἐπιθύουσι διὰ πυρὸς ἐνδελεχοῦς, οὗ τὸ ὕψος πηχῶν ἑξήκοντα,
whose height shall be sixty cubits, and the breadth sixty cubits, with three rows of hewn stones, and one row of new wood of that country; and the expences thereof to be given out of the house of king Cyrus:
Greek · Septuagintπλάτος πηχῶν ἑξήκοντα διὰ δόμων λιθίνων ξυστῶν τριῶν, καὶ δόμου ξυλίνου ἐγχωρίου καινοῦ ἑνὸς, καὶ τὸ δαπάνημα δοθῆναι ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου Κύρου τοῦ βασιλέως.
and that the holy vessels of the house of the Lord, both of gold and silver, that Nabuchodonosor took out of the house at Jerusalem, and brought to Babylon, should be restored to the house at Jerusalem, and be set in the place where they were before.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ τὰ ἱερὰ σκεύη τοῦ οἴκου Κυρίου τά τε χρυσᾶ καὶ ἀργυρᾶ, ἃ ἐξήνεγκε Ναβουχοδονόσορ ἐκ τοῦ οἴκου τοῦ ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ἀπήνεγκεν εἰς Βαβυλῶνα, ἀποκατασταθῆναι εἰς τὸν οἶκον τὸν ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ, οὗ ἦν κείμενα, ὅπως τεθῇ ἐκεῖ.
And also he commanded that Sisinnes the governor of Syria and Phenice, and Sathrabuzanes, and their companions, and those which were appointed rulers in Syria and Phenice, should be careful not to meddle with the place, but suffer Zorobabel the servant of the Lord, and governor of Judea, and the elders of the Jews, to build the house of the Lord in that place.
Greek · SeptuagintΠροσέταξε δὲ ἐπιμεληθῆναι Σισίννῃ ἐπάρχῳ Συρίας καὶ Φοινίκης, καὶ Σαθραβουζάνῃ, καὶ τοῖς συνεταίροις, καὶ τοῖς ἀποτεταγμένοις ἐν Συρίᾳ καὶ Φοινίκῃ ἡγεμόσιν ἀπέχεσθαι τοῦ τόπου, ἐᾶσαι δὲ τὸν παῖδα Κυρίου Ζοροβάβελ, ἔπαρχον δὲ τῆς Ἰουδαίας, καὶ τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους τῶν Ἰουδαίων, τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Κυρίου ἐκεῖνον οἰκοδομεῖν ἐπὶ τοῦ τόπου.
I have commanded also to have it built up whole again; and that they look diligently to help those that be of the captivity of the Jews, till the house of the Lord be finished:
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐγὼ δὲ ἐπέταξα ὁλοσχερῶς οἰκοδομῆσαι, καὶ ἀτενίσαι ἵνα συμποιῶσι τοῖς ἐκ τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας τῆς Ἰουδαίας, μέχρι τοῦ ἐπιτελεσθῆναι τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Κυρίου·
and out of the tribute of Celosyria and Phenice, a portion carefully to be given these men for the sacrifices of the Lord, [that is], to Zorobabel the governor, for bullocks, and rams, and lambs;
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ ἀπὸ τῆς φορολογίας κοίλης Συρίας καὶ Φοινίκης ἐπιμελῶς σύνταξιν δίδοσθαι τούτοις τοῖς ἀνθρώποις εἰς θυσίαν τῷ Κυρίῳ, Ζοροβάβελ ἐπάρεχῳ εἰς ταύρους, καὶ κριοὺς, καὶ ἄρνας,
and also corn, salt, wine, and oil, and that continually every year without further question, according as the priests that be in Jerusalem shall signify to be daily spent:
Greek · Septuagintὁμοίως δὲ καὶ πυρὸν, καὶ ἅλα, καὶ οἶνον, καὶ ἔλαιον ἐνδελεχῶς κατʼ ἐνιαυτὸν, καθὼς ἂν οἱ ἱερεῖς οἱ ἐν Ἱερουσαλὴμ ὑπαγορεύσωσιν ἀναλίσκεσθαι καθʼ ἡμέραν, ἀναμφισβητήτως,
that offerings may be made to the most high God for the king and for his children, and that they may pray for their lives.
Greek · Septuagintὅπως προσφέρωνται σπονδαὶ τῷ Θεῷ τῷ ὑψίστῳ ὑπὲρ τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ τῶν παίδων, καὶ προσεύχωνται περὶ τῆς αὐτῶν ζωῆς·
And he commanded that whosoever should transgress, yea, or make light of any thing [herein] written, out of his own house should a tree be taken, and he thereon be hanged, and all his goods seized for the king.
Greek · Septuagintκαὶ προστάξαι ἵνα ὅσοι ἐὰν παραβῶσί τὶ τῶν γεγραμμένων καὶ ἀκυρώσωσι, ληφθῆναι ξύλον ἐκ τῶν ἰδίων αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπʼ αὐτοῦ κρεμασθῆναι, καὶ τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ εἶναι βασιλικά.
The Lord therefore, whose name is there called upon, utterly destroy every king and nation, that stretcheth out his hand to hinder or endamage that house of the Lord in Jerusalem.
Greek · SeptuagintΔιὰ ταῦτα καὶ ὁ Κύριος, οὗ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἐπικέκληται ἐκεῖ, ἀφανίσαι πάντα βασιλέα καὶ ἔθνος, ὃς ἐκτενεῖ τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ κωλῦσαι ἢ κακοποιῆσαι τὸν οἶκον Κυρίου ἐκεῖνον τὸν ἐν Ἱερουσαλήμ.
I Darius the king have ordained that according unto these things it be done with diligence.
Greek · SeptuagintἘγὼ βασιλεὺς Δαρεῖος δεδογμάτικα ἐπιμελῶς κατὰ ταῦτα γίνεσθαι.
Then Sisinnes the governor of Celosyria and Phenice, and Sathrabuzanes, with their companions, following the commandments of king Darius,
Greek · SeptuagintΤότε Σισίννης ἔπαρχος κοίλης Συρίας καὶ Φοινίκης, καὶ Σαθραβουζάνης, καὶ οἱ συνεταῖροι κατακολουθήσαντες τοῖς ὑπὸ τοῦ βασιλέως Δαρείου προσταγεῖσιν,
did very carefully oversee the holy works, assisting the ancients of the Jews and governors of the temple.
Greek · Septuagintἐπεστάτουν τῶν ἱερῶν ἔργων ἐπιμελέστερον συνεργοῦντες τοῖς πρεσβυτέροις τῶν Ἰουδαίων καὶ ἱεροστάταις.
And so the holy works prospered, when Aggeus and Zacharias the prophets prophesied.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ εὔοδα ἐγίνετο τὰ ἱερὰ ἔργα, προφητευόντων Ἀγγαίου καὶ Ζαχαρίου τῶν προφητῶν.
And they finished these things by the commandment of the Lord God of Israel; and with the consent of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes, kings of Persia,
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ συνετέλεσαν ταῦτα διὰ προστάγματος Κυρίου Θεοῦ Ἰσραήλ· καὶ μετὰ τῆς γνώμης τοῦ Κύρου καὶ Δαρείου καὶ Ἀρταξέρξου βασιλέων Περσῶν,
the holy house was finished in the three and twentieth day of the month Adar, in the sixth year of king Darius.
Greek · Septuagintσυνετελέσθη ὁ οἶκος ὁ ἅγιος ἕως τρίτης καὶ εἰκάδος μηνὸς Ἄδαρ, τοῦ ἕκτου ἔτους βασιλέως Δαρείου.
And the children of Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and others that were of the captivity, that were added unto them, did according to the things [written] in the book of Moses.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἐποίησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ οἱ Λευῖται καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ οἱ ἐκ τῆς αἰχμαλωσίας οἱ προστεθέντες, ἀκολούθως τοῖς ἐν τῇ Μωυσέως βίβλῳ.
And to the dedication of the temple of the Lord they offered an hundred bullocks, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs;
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ προσήνεγκαν εἰς τὸν ἐγκαινισμὸν τοῦ ἱεροῦ τοῦ Κυρίου ταύρους ἑκατὸν, κριοὺς διακοσίους, ἄρνας τετρακοσίους,
and twelve goats for the sin of all Israel, according to the number of the chief of the tribes of Israel.
Greek · Septuagintχιμάρους ὑπὲρ ἁμαρτίας παντὸς τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ δώδεκα πρὸς ἀριθμὸν, ἐκ τῶν φυλάρχων τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ δώδεκα.
The priests also and the Levites stood arrayed in their vestments, according to their kindreds, in the service of the Lord God of Israel, according to the book of Moses: and the porters at every gate.
Greek · SeptuagintΚαὶ ἔστησαν οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ οἱ Λενῖται κατὰ φυλὰς ἐστολισμένοι ἐπὶ τῶν ἔργων Κυρίου Θεοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἀκολούθως τῇ Μωυσέως βίβλῳ, καὶ οἱ θυρωροὶ ἐφʼ ἑκάστου πυλῶνος.
