Notas sobre este texto (1)
- Ezra and Nehemiah form one book (2 Esdras) in this edition; the reader shows them as Ezra 1–10 and Nehemiah 1–13.
1 Σίμων Ὀνίου υἱὸς ἱερεὺς ὁ μέγας, ὃς ἐν ζωῇ αὐτοῦ ὑπέῤῥαψεν οἶκον, καὶ ἐν ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ ἐστερέωσε τὸν ναόν·
1 It was Simon, the son of Onias, the high priest, who in his life repaired the house, and in his days strengthened the temple.
2 καὶ ὑπʼ αὐτοῦ ἐθεμελιώθη ὕψος διπλῆς ἀνάλημμα ὑψηλὸν περιβόλου ἱεροῦ.
2 The foundation was built by him to the height of the double walls, the lofty retaining walls of the temple enclosure.
3 Ἐν ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ ἠλαττώθη ἀποδοχεῖον ὑδάτων, χαλκὸς ὡσεὶ θαλάσσης τὸ περίμετρον·
3 In his days, a water cistern was dug, the brazen vessel like the sea in circumference.
4 ὁ φροντίζων τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ πτώσεως, καὶ ἐνισχύσας πόλιν ἐμπολιορκῆσαι,
4 He planned to save his people from ruin, and fortified the city against siege.
5 ὡς ἐδοξάσθη ἐν περιστροφῇ λαοῦ, ἐν ἐξόδῳ οἴκου καταπετάσματος·
5 How glorious he was when the people gathered around him as he came out of the house of the veil!
6 ὡς ἀστὴρ ἑωθινὸς ἐν μέσῳ νεφέλης, ὡς σελήνη πλήρης ἐν ἡμέραις·
6 He was like the morning star among clouds, like the full moon,
7 ὡς ἥλιος ἐκλάμπων ἐπὶ ναὸν ὑψίστου, καὶ ὡς τόξον φωτίζον ἐν νεφέλαις δόξης·
7 like the sun shining on the temple of the Most High, like the rainbow shining in clouds of glory,
8 ὡς ἄνθος ῥόδων ἐν ἡμέραις νέων, ὡς κρίνα ἐπʼ ἐξόδων ὕδατος· ὡς βλαστὸς Λιβάνου ἐν ἡμέραις θέρους,
8 like roses in the days of first fruits, like lilies by a water spring, like the shoot of the frankincense tree in summer time,
9 ὡς πῦρ καὶ λίβανος ἐπὶ πυρείου· ὡς σκεῦος χρυσίου ὁλοσφύρητον κεκοσμημένον παντὶ λίθῳ πολυτελεῖ·
9 like fire and incense in the censer, like a vessel of beaten gold adorned with all kinds of precious stones,
10 ὡς ἐλαία ἀναθάλλουσα καρποὺς, καὶ ὡς κυπάρισσος ὑψουμένη ἐν νεφέλαις.
10 like an olive tree loaded with fruit, and like a cypress growing high among the clouds.
11 Ἐν τῷ ἀναλαμβάνειν αὐτὸν στολὴν δόξης, καὶ ἐνδιδύσκεσθαι αὐτὸν συντέλειαν καυχήματος, ἐν ἀναβάσει θυσιαστηρίου ἁγίου ἐδόξασε περιβολὴν ἁγιάσματος.
11 When he put on his glorious robe, and clothed himself in perfect splendor, ascending to the holy altar, he made the court of the sanctuary glorious.
12 Ἐν δὲ τῷ δέχεσθαι μέλη ἐκ χειρῶν ἱερέων, καὶ αὐτὸς ἑστὼς παρʼ ἐσχάρᾳ βωμοῦ, κυκλόθεν αὐτοῦ στέφανος ἀδελφῶν, ὡς βλάστημα κέδρου ἐν τῶ λιβάνῳ· καὶ ἐκύκλωσαν αὐτὸν ὡς στελέχη φοινίκων,
12 When he received the portions out of the priests’ hands, as he stood by the hearth of the altar, with his kindred like a garland around him, he was like a young cedar in Lebanon surrounded by the trunks of palm trees.
13 καὶ πάντες οἱ υἱοὶ Ἀαρὼν ἐν δόξῃ αὐτῶν· καὶ προσφορὰ Κυρίου ἐν χερσὶν αὐτῶν ἔναντι πάσης ἐκκλησίας Ἰσραήλ.
13 All the sons of Aaron in their glory, held the Lord’s offering in their hands before all the congregation of Israel.
14 Καὶ συντέλειαν λειτουργῶν ἐπὶ βωμῶν, κοσμῆσαι προσφορὰν ὑψίστου παντοκράτορος,
14 Finishing the service at the altars, that he might arrange the offering of the Most High, the Almighty,
15 ἐξέτεινεν ἐπὶ σπονδείου χεῖρα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔσπεισεν ἐξ αἵματος σταφυλῆς· ἐξέχεεν εἰς θεμέλια θυσιαστηρίου ὀσμὴν εὐωδίας ὑψίστῷ παμβασιλεῖ.
15 he stretched out his hand to the cup of libation, and poured out the cup of the grape. He poured it out at the foot of the altar, a sweet smelling fragrance to the Most High, the King of all.
16 Τότε ἀνέκραγον υἱοὶ Ἀαρὼν, ἐν σάλπιγξιν ἐλαταῖς ἤχησαν· ἀκουστὴν ἐποίησαν φωνὴν μεγάλην εἰς μνημόσυνον ἔναντι ὑψίστου.
16 Then the sons of Aaron shouted. They sounded the trumpets of beaten work. They made a great fanfare to be heard, for a reminder before the Most High.
17 Τότε πᾶς ὁ λαὸς κοινῇ κατέσπευσε, καὶ ἔπεσαν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, προσκυνῆσαι τῷ Κυρίῳ αὐτῶν παντοκράτορι Θεῷ τῷ ὑψίστῳ.
17 Then all the people together hurried, and fell down to the ground on their faces to worship their Lord, the Almighty, God Most High.
18 Καὶ ᾔνεσαν οἱ ψαλμῳδοὶ ἐν φωναῖς αὐτῶν, ἐν πλείστῳ οἴκῳ ἐγλυκάνθη μέλος.
18 The singers also praised him with their voices. There was a sweet melody in the whole house.
19 Καὶ ἐδεήθη ὁ λαὸς Κυρίου ὑψίστου ἐν προσευχῇ κατέναντι ἐλεήμονος, ἕως συντελεσθῇ κόσμος Κυρίου, καὶ τὴν λειτουργίαν αὐτοῦ ἐτελείωσαν.
19 And the people implored the Lord Most High, in prayer before him who is merciful, until the worship of the Lord was finished, and so they accomplished his service.
20 Τότε καταβὰς ἐπῇρε χεῖρας αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν ἐκκλησίαν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ, δοῦναι εὐλογίαν Κυρίῳ ἐν χειλέων αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ καυχᾶσθαι.
20 Then he went down, and lifted up his hands over the whole congregation of the children of Israel, to give blessing to the Lord with his lips, and to glory in his name.
21 Καὶ ἐδευτέρωσεν ἐν προσκυνήσει ἐπιδείξασθαι τὴν εὐλογίαν παρὰ ὑψίστου.
21 He bowed himself down in worship the second time, to declare the blessing from the Most High.
22 Καὶ νῦν εὐλογήσατε τῷ Θεῷ πάντες τῷ μεγαλοποιοῦντι πάντη, τὸν ὑψοῦντα ἡμέρας ἡμῶν ἐκ μήτρας, καὶ ποιοῦντα μεθʼ ἡμῶν κατὰ τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ.
22 Now bless the God of all, who everywhere does great things, who exalts our days from the womb, and deals with us according to his mercy.
23 Δῴη ἡμῖν εὐφροσύνην καρδίας, καὶ γενέσθαι εἰρήνην ἐν ἡμέραις ἡμῶν ἐν Ἰσραὴλ κατὰ τὰς ἡμέρας τοῦ αἰῶνος,
23 May he grant us joyfulness of heart, and that peace may be in our days in Israel for the days of eternity,
24 ἐμπιστεῦσαι μεθʼ ἡμῶν τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτοῦ λυτρωσάσθω ἡμᾶς.
24 to entrust his mercy with us, and let him deliver us in his time!
25 Ἐν δυσὶν ἔθνεσι προσώχθισεν ἡ ψυχή μου, καὶ τὸ τρίτον οὐκ ἔστιν ἔθνος.
25 With two nations my soul is vexed, and the third is no nation:
26 Οἱ καθήμενοι ἐν ὄρει Σαμαρείας, Φυλιστιεὶμ καὶ ὁ λαὸς μωρὸς ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν Σικίμοις.
26 Those who sit on the mountain of Samaria, the Philistines, and the foolish people who live in Shechem.
27 Παιδείαν συνέσεως καὶ ἐπιστήμης ἐχάραξε ἐν τῷ βιβλίῳ, τούτῳ, Ἰησοῦς υἱὸς Σειρὰχ Ἱεροσολυμίτης, ὃς ἀνώμβρησε σοφίαν ἀπὸ καρδίας αὐτοῦ.
27 I have written in this book the instruction of understanding and knowledge, I Jesus, the son of Sirach Eleazar, of Jerusalem, who out of his heart poured forth wisdom.
28 Μακάριος ὃς ἐν τούτοις ἀναστραφήσεται, καὶ ὁ θεὶς αὐτὰ ἐπὶ καρδίαν αὐτοῦ σοφισθήσεται.
28 Blessed is he who will exercise these things. He who lays them up in his heart will become wise.
29 Ἐὰν γὰρ αὐτὰ ποιήσῃ, πρὸς πάντα ἰσχύσει, ὅτι φῶς Κυρίου τὸ ἴχνος αὐτοῦ. ΠΡΟΣΕΥΧΗ ἸΗΣΟΥ ΥΙΟΥ ΣΕΙΡΑΧ.
29 For if he does them, he will be strong in all things, for the light of the Lord is his guide.
