WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Cuando llegó el mes séptimo y los hijos de Israel estaban en las ciudades, el pueblo se reunió como un solo hombre en Jerusalén.
1 When the seventh month had come, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem.
2 Entonces Jesuá, hijo de Josadac, se levantó y sus hermanos los sacerdotes, y Zorobabel, hijo de Salatiel, con sus hermanos. Edificaron el altar del ʼElohim de Israel para ofrecer holocaustos sobre él, como está escrito en la Ley de Moisés, el varón de ʼElohim.
2 Then Jeshua the son of Jozadak stood up with his brothers the priests and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and his relatives, and built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings on it, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
3 Aunque tenían temor de las poblaciones de aquellos campos, erigieron el altar sobre sus basas y ofrecieron holocaustos sobre él a Yavé, tanto por la mañana como al llegar la noche.
3 In spite of their fear because of the peoples of the surrounding lands, they set the altar on its base; and they offered burnt offerings on it to Yahweh, even burnt offerings morning and evening.
4 También celebraron la fiesta de Las Cabañas, como está escrito, holocaustos cada día por número, según la ordenanza.
4 They kept the feast of booths, as it is written, and offered the daily burnt offerings by number, according to the ordinance, as the duty of every day required;
5 Además de esto, [ofrecieron] el holocausto continuo, las lunas nuevas y todas las fiestas solemnes de Yavé, y lo que cada uno ofrecía como ofrenda voluntaria a Yavé.
5 and afterward the continual burnt offering, the offerings of the new moons, of all the set feasts of Yahweh that were consecrated, and of everyone who willingly offered a free will offering to Yahweh.
6 Desde el primer día del mes séptimo comenzaron a ofrecer holocaustos a Yavé, aunque no estaban colocados los cimientos del Templo de Yavé.
6 From the first day of the seventh month, they began to offer burnt offerings to Yahweh; but the foundation of Yahweh’s temple was not yet laid.
7 Se les pagó a los albañiles y carpinteros con monedas de plata, y a los sidonios y tirios con alimento, bebidas y aceite, para que llevaran madera de cedro desde el Líbano por mar hasta Jope, según la autorización de Ciro, rey de Persia.
7 They also gave money to the masons and to the carpenters. They also gave food, drink, and oil to the people of Sidon and Tyre to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea, to Joppa, according to the grant that they had from Cyrus King of Persia.
8 El mes segundo del año, segundo de su llegada a la Casa de ʼElohim en Jerusalén, Zorobabel, hijo de Salatiel, Jesuá, hijo de Josadac, sus otros hermanos sacerdotes y levitas, y todos los que regresaron de la cautividad a Jerusalén, designaron a los levitas de 20 años arriba para dirigir las obras de la Casa de Yavé.
8 Now in the second year of their coming to God’s house at Jerusalem, in the second month, Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the rest of their brothers the priests and the Levites, and all those who had come out of the captivity to Jerusalem, began the work and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to have the oversight of the work of Yahweh’s house.
9 También Jesuá con sus hijos y sus hermanos, Cadmiel, hijo de Judá, con sus hijos, y los hijos de Henadad y sus hermanos levitas, se presentaron como un solo hombre para dirigir a los que hacían la obra en la Casa de ʼElohim.
9 Then Jeshua stood with his sons and his brothers, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, together to have the oversight of the workmen in God’s house: the sons of Henadad, with their sons and their brothers the Levites.
10 Cuando los albañiles echaron los cimientos del Templo de Yavé, se presentaron los sacerdotes y levitas, hijos de Asaf, con sus vestiduras, trompetas y címbalos para alabar a Yavé, según la ordenanza de David, rey de Israel.
10 When the builders laid the foundation of Yahweh’s temple, they set the priests in their vestments with trumpets, with the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise Yahweh, according to the directions of David king of Israel.
11 Cantaban, alababan y daban gracias a Yavé: Porque Él es bueno, porque para siempre es su misericordia sobre Israel. Y todo el pueblo dio un gran grito cuando alabó a Yavé porque fueron puestos los cimientos de la Casa de Yavé.
11 They sang to one another in praising and giving thanks to Yahweh, “For he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever toward Israel.” All the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised Yahweh, because the foundation of Yahweh’s house had been laid.
12 Pero muchos de los sacerdotes, los levitas, los jefes de casas paternas y los ancianos que vieron el primer Templo, lloraban en alta voz cuando ante sus ojos eran puestos los cimientos de esta Casa, mientras muchos daban gritos de gozo.
12 But many of the priests and Levites and heads of fathers’ households, the old men who had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice. Many also shouted aloud for joy,
13 No se podía distinguir entre el clamor de júbilo y el llanto del pueblo, porque gritaba a gran voz. El bullicio se oía desde lejos.
13 so that the people could not discern the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people; for the people shouted with a loud shout, and the noise was heard far away.
