复筑坛献祭

到了七月,以色列人住在各城,那时他们如同一人聚集在耶路撒冷 约萨达的儿子耶书亚和他的弟兄众祭司,并撒拉铁的儿子所罗巴伯与他的弟兄,都起来建筑以色列神的坛,要照神人摩西律法书上所写的,在坛上献燔祭。 他们在原有的根基上筑坛,因惧怕邻国的民;又在其上向耶和华早晚献燔祭。 又照律法书上所写的守住棚节,按数照例献每日所当献的燔祭。 其后献常献的燔祭,并在月朔与耶和华的一切圣节献祭,又向耶和华献各人的甘心祭。 从七月初一日起,他们就向耶和华献燔祭,但耶和华殿的根基尚未立定。 他们又将银子给石匠、木匠,把粮食、酒、油给西顿人、推罗人,使他们将香柏树从黎巴嫩运到海里,浮海运到约帕,是照波斯居鲁士所允准的。

重建圣殿

百姓到了耶路撒冷神殿的地方第二年二月,撒拉铁的儿子所罗巴伯约萨达的儿子耶书亚,和其余的弟兄,就是祭司、利未人,并一切被掳归回耶路撒冷的人,都兴工建造。又派利未人,从二十岁以外的,督理建造耶和华殿的工作。 于是犹大[a]的后裔,就是耶书亚和他的子孙与弟兄,甲篾和他的子孙,利未希拿达的子孙与弟兄,都一同起来,督理那在神殿做工的人。 10 匠人立耶和华殿根基的时候,祭司皆穿礼服吹号,亚萨的子孙利未人敲钹,照以色列大卫所定的例都站着赞美耶和华。 11 他们彼此唱和,赞美称谢耶和华说:“他本为善,他向以色列人永发慈爱!”他们赞美耶和华的时候,众民大声呼喊,因耶和华殿的根基已经立定。 12 然而有许多祭司、利未人、族长,就是见过旧殿的老年人,现在亲眼看见立这殿的根基,便大声哭号,也有许多人大声欢呼, 13 甚至百姓不能分辨欢呼的声音和哭号的声音,因为众人大声呼喊,声音听到远处。

Rebuilding the Altar

When the seventh month came and the Israelites had settled in their towns,(A) the people assembled(B) together as one in Jerusalem. Then Joshua(C) son of Jozadak(D) and his fellow priests and Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel(E) and his associates began to build the altar of the God of Israel to sacrifice burnt offerings on it, in accordance with what is written in the Law of Moses(F) the man of God. Despite their fear(G) of the peoples around them, they built the altar on its foundation and sacrificed burnt offerings on it to the Lord, both the morning and evening sacrifices.(H) Then in accordance with what is written, they celebrated the Festival of Tabernacles(I) with the required number of burnt offerings prescribed for each day. After that, they presented the regular burnt offerings, the New Moon(J) sacrifices and the sacrifices for all the appointed sacred festivals of the Lord,(K) as well as those brought as freewill offerings to the Lord. On the first day of the seventh month they began to offer burnt offerings to the Lord, though the foundation of the Lord’s temple had not yet been laid.

Rebuilding the Temple

Then they gave money to the masons and carpenters,(L) and gave food and drink and olive oil to the people of Sidon and Tyre, so that they would bring cedar logs(M) by sea from Lebanon(N) to Joppa, as authorized by Cyrus(O) king of Persia.

In the second month(P) of the second year after their arrival at the house of God in Jerusalem, Zerubbabel(Q) son of Shealtiel, Joshua son of Jozadak and the rest of the people (the priests and the Levites and all who had returned from the captivity to Jerusalem) began the work. They appointed Levites twenty(R) years old and older to supervise the building of the house of the Lord. Joshua(S) and his sons and brothers and Kadmiel and his sons (descendants of Hodaviah[a]) and the sons of Henadad and their sons and brothers—all Levites—joined together in supervising those working on the house of God.

10 When the builders laid(T) the foundation of the temple of the Lord, the priests in their vestments and with trumpets,(U) and the Levites (the sons of Asaph) with cymbals, took their places to praise(V) the Lord, as prescribed by David(W) king of Israel.(X) 11 With praise and thanksgiving they sang to the Lord:

“He is good;
    his love toward Israel endures forever.”(Y)

And all the people gave a great shout(Z) of praise to the Lord, because the foundation(AA) of the house of the Lord was laid. 12 But many of the older priests and Levites and family heads, who had seen the former temple,(AB) wept(AC) aloud when they saw the foundation of this temple being laid, while many others shouted for joy. 13 No one could distinguish the sound of the shouts of joy(AD) from the sound of weeping, because the people made so much noise. And the sound was heard far away.
