Kniha Nehemiášova

1 (UKJV) And there was a great cry of the people and of their wives against their brethren the Jews.
1 (ROH) A povstal veliký krik ľudu a ich žien proti ich bratom Židom.

2 (UKJV) For there were that said, We, our sons, and our daughters, are many: therefore we take up corn for them, that we may eat, and live.
2 (ROH) Pretože boli niektorí takí, ktorí hovorili: Je nás mnoho, našich synov a našich dcér; zadovážime si za nich zbožia a budeme jesť a tak budeme žiť!

3 (UKJV) Some also there were that said, We have mortgaged our lands, vineyards, and houses, that we might buy corn, because of the dearth.
3 (ROH) A boli iní, ktorí hovorili: Pozastavujeme svoje polia a svoje vinice a svoje domy a zadovážime si zbožia v tomto hlade.

4 (UKJV) There were also that said, We have borrowed money for the king's tribute, and that upon our lands and vineyards.
4 (ROH) A zase niektorí iní hovorili: Požičali sme si peniaze na daň kráľovu zastaviac svoje polia a svoje vinice,

5 (UKJV) "Yet now our flesh is as the flesh of our brethren, our children as their children: and, lo, we bring into bondage our sons and our daughters to be servants, and some of our daughters are brought unto bondage already: neither is it in our power to redeem them; for other men have our lands and vineyards. "
5 (ROH) kým predsa je naše telo jako telo našich bratov; jakí sú ich synovia, takí sú aj naši synovia, a hľa, my depceme svojich synov a svoje dcéry predávajúc ich za otrokov, a už aj sú niektoré z našich dcér zdeptané za otrokyne, a nemôžeme si pomôcť, a naše polia a naše vinice majú iní. -

6 (UKJV) And I was very angry when I heard their cry and these words.
6 (ROH) Preto som sa veľmi rozhneval, keď som počul ich krik a tie slová.

7 (UKJV) Then I consulted with myself, and I rebuked the nobles, and the rulers, and said unto them, All of you exact interest, every one of his brother. And I set a great assembly against them.
7 (ROH) A rozmýšľal som o tom vo svojom srdci a dohováral som popredným a pohlavárom správy a povedal som im: Vy úžerou utiskujete každý svojho brata! A svolal som proti nim veľké shromaždenie.

8 (UKJV) "And I said unto them, We after our ability have redeemed our brethren the Jews, which were sold unto the heathen; and will all of you even sell your brethren? or shall they be sold unto us? Then held they their peace, and found nothing to answer. "
8 (ROH) A riekol som im: My kupujeme svojich bratov Židov, ktorí boli predaní pohanom, podľa svojej možnosti. A čo azda aj vy budete predávať svojich bratov, aby sa potom nám predávali? A mlčali ani nenašli slova.

9 (UKJV) Also I said, It is not good that all of you do: ought all of you not to walk in the fear of our God because of the reproach of the heathen our enemies?
9 (ROH) A ďalej som povedal: Nie je to dobrá vec, ktorú robíte. Či nemáte radšej chodiť v bázni našeho Boha ako v potupe pohanov, našich nepriateľov?

10 (UKJV) I likewise, and my brethren, and my servants, might exact of them money and corn: I pray you, let us leave off this interest.
10 (ROH) A veď i ja, moji bratia a moji služobníci im požičiavame peniaze i zbožie. Nože zanechajme tú úžeru!

11 (UKJV) Restore, I pray you, to them, even this day, their lands, their vineyards, their olive yards, and their houses, also the hundredth part of the money, and of the corn, the wine, and the oil, that all of you exact of them.
11 (ROH) Navráťte im, prosím, ešte dnes ich polia, ich vinice, ich olivové sady a ich domy a celý úrok peňazí a zbožia, vína a oleja, čo od nich úžerou beriete.

12 (UKJV) "Then said they, We will restore them, and will require nothing of them; so will we do as you say. Then I called the priests, and took an oath of them, that they should do according to this promise. "
12 (ROH) A odpovedali: Navrátime a nebudeme pohľadávať od nich. Urobíme tak, ako hovoríš. Vtedy som svolal kňazov a zaviazal som ich prísahou, aby urobili tak.

13 (UKJV) Also I shook my lap, and said, So God shake out every man from his house, and from his labour, that performs not this promise, even thus be he shaken out, and emptied. And all the congregation said, Amen, and praised the LORD. And the people did according to this promise.
13 (ROH) Vytriasol som i svoje ňádra a povedal som: Tak nech vytrasie Bôh každého muža, ktorý by nedodržal toho slova, z jeho domu a z výťažku jeho práce, a nech je taký vytrasený a prázdny! Na to rieklo celé shromaždenie: Ameň! A chválili Hospodina. A tedy ľud urobil tak.

14 (UKJV) Moreover from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even unto the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that is, twelve years, I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the governor.
14 (ROH) Ani odo dňa, ktorého mi prikázali, aby som bol ich vojvodom v zemi Júdovej, od dvadsiateho roku až do tridsiateho druhého roku kráľa Artaxerxa, dvanásť rokov, nejedol som vojvodského chleba ani ja ani moji bratia.

15 (UKJV) "But the former governors that had been before me were chargeable unto the people, and had taken of them bread and wine, beside forty shekels of silver; yea, even their servants bare rule over the people: but so did not I, because of the fear of God. "
15 (ROH) A drievni vojvodovia, ktorí boli predo mnou, uvaľovali ťarchu na ľud berúc od nich na chlieb a na víno, keď už boli vybrali v peňazoch štyridsať šeklov. Ba ešte aj ich sluhovia panovali nad ľudom, ale ja som tak nerobil, pretože som sa bál Boha.

16 (UKJV) Yea, also I continued in the work of this wall, neither bought we any land: and all my servants were gathered thither unto the work.
16 (ROH) Ale aj pri práci toho múru som spolu opravoval, a nekúpili sme poľa, a všetci moji služobníci boli tam shromaždení ku práci.

17 (UKJV) Moreover there were at my table an hundred and fifty of the Jews and rulers, beside those that came unto us from among the heathen that are about us.
17 (ROH) A k tomu Židia a pohlavári správy, sto päťdesiat mužov, ako aj tí, ktorí prichádzali k nám z národov, ktoré boly vôkol nás, jedávali pri mojom stole.

18 (UKJV) "Now that which was prepared for me daily was one ox and six choice sheep; also fowls were prepared for me, and once in ten days store of all sorts of wine: yet for all this required not I the bread of the governor, because the bondage was heavy upon this people. "
18 (ROH) A tak to, čo bolo pripravené na jeden deň, bolo: jeden vôl, šesť vybraných oviec a vtáci mi boli pripravovaní, a jeden deň v desiatich dňoch dávalo sa všelijakého vína hojne. A pri tom pri všetkom nežiadal som vojvodského chleba, lebo to bola ťažká služba, ktorá doliehala na ten ľud.

19 (UKJV) Think upon me, my God, for good, according to all that I have done for this people.
19 (ROH) Pamätaj mi, môj Bože, na dobré čo do všetkého toho, čo som robil tomuto ľudu!
