Ezra 3

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 iamque venerat mensis septimus et erant filii Israhel in civitatibus suis congregatus est ergo populus quasi vir unus in Hierusalem

2 et surrexit Iosue filius Iosedech et fratres eius sacerdotes et Zorobabel filius Salathihel et fratres eius et aedificaverunt altare Dei Israhel ut offerrent in eo holocaustomata sicut scriptum est in lege Mosi viri Dei

3 conlocaverunt autem altare super bases suas deterrentibus eos per circuitum populis terrarum et obtulerunt super illud holocaustum Domino mane et vespere

4 feceruntque sollemnitatem tabernaculorum sicut scriptum est et holocaustum diebus singulis per ordinem secundum praeceptum opus diei in die suo

5 et post haec holocaustum iuge tam in kalendis quam in universis sollemnitatibus Domini quae erant consecratae et in omnibus in quibus ultro offerebatur munus Deo

6 a primo die mensis septimi coeperunt offerre holocaustum Domino porro templum Dei fundatum necdum erat

7 dederunt autem pecunias latomis et cementariis cibum quoque et potum et oleum Sidoniis Tyriisque ut deferrent ligna cedrina de Libano ad mare Ioppes iuxta quod praeceperat Cyrus rex Persarum eis

8 anno autem secundo adventus eorum ad templum Dei in Hierusalem mense secundo coeperunt Zorobabel filius Salathihel et Iosue filius Iosedech et reliqui de fratribus eorum sacerdotes et Levitae et omnes qui venerant de captivitate in Hierusalem et constituerunt Levitas a viginti annis et supra ut urguerent opus Domini

9 stetitque Iosue filii eius et fratres eius Cedmihel et filii eius et filii Iuda quasi unus ut instarent super eos qui faciebant opus in templo Dei filii Enadad filii eorum et fratres eorum Levitae

10 fundato igitur a cementariis templo Domini steterunt sacerdotes in ornatu suo cum tubis et Levitae filii Asaph in cymbalis ut laudarent Deum per manus David regis Israhel

11 et concinebant in hymnis et confessione Domino quoniam bonus quoniam in aeternum misericordia eius super Israhel omnis quoque populus vociferabatur clamore magno in laudando Dominum eo quod fundatum esset templum Domini

12 plurimi etiam de sacerdotibus et Levitis et principes patrum seniores qui viderant templum prius cum fundatum esset et hoc templum in oculis eorum flebant voce magna et multi vociferantes in laetitia elevabant vocem

13 nec poterat quisquam agnoscere vocem clamoris laetantium et vocem fletus populi commixtim enim populus vociferabatur clamore magno et vox audiebatur procul

New International Version NIV

1 When the seventh month came and the Israelites had settled in their towns, the people assembled together as one in Jerusalem.

2 Then Joshua son of Jozadak and his fellow priests and Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel 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 the man of God.

3 Despite their fear 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.

4 Then in accordance with what is written, they celebrated the Festival of Tabernacles with the required number of burnt offerings prescribed for each day.

5 After that, they presented the regular burnt offerings, the New Moon sacrifices and the sacrifices for all the appointed sacred festivals of the LORD, as well as those brought as freewill offerings to the LORD.

6 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.

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

8 In the second month of the second year after their arrival at the house of God in Jerusalem, Zerubbabel 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 years old and older to supervise the building of the house of the LORD.

9 Joshua and his sons and brothers and Kadmiel and his sons (descendants of Hodaviah ) 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 the foundation of the temple of the LORD, the priests in their vestments and with trumpets, and the Levites (the sons of Asaph) with cymbals, took their places to praise the LORD, as prescribed by David king of Israel.

11 With praise and thanksgiving they sang to the LORD: “He is good; his love toward Israel endures forever.” And all the people gave a great shout of praise to the LORD, because the foundation 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, wept 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 from the sound of weeping, because the people made so much noise. And the sound was heard far away.
