Kniha Nehemiášova

1 (UKJV) Now in the twenty and fourth day of this month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, and with sack clothes, and earth upon them.
1 (KAT) Na dvadsiaty štvrtý deň tohto mesiaca sa Izraeliti zhromaždili, postili sa, obliekli sa do vrecovín a posypali sa prachom.

2 (UKJV) And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all strangers, and stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.
2 (KAT) Keď sa izraelskí súkmeňovci odlúčili od všakových cudzozemcov, postavili sa a vyznávali svoje hriechy a neprávosti svojich otcov.

3 (UKJV) "And they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of the LORD their God one fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped the LORD their God. "
3 (KAT) Potom povstali priam na mieste, kde boli, štvrť dňa čítali z knihy zákona Pána, svojho Boha, a štvrť dňa sa vyznávali a klaňali sa Pánovi, svojmu Bohu.

4 (UKJV) Then stood up upon the stairs, of the Levites, Jeshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani, and cried with a loud voice unto the LORD their God.
4 (KAT) Na levitské vyvýšené miesto vystúpili Jozue, Bani, Kadmiel, Šebaniáš, Buni, Šerebiáš, Bani a Chenani a vzývali veľkým hlasom Pána, svojho Boha.

5 (UKJV) Then the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said, Stand up and bless the LORD your God for ever and ever: and blessed be your glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.
5 (KAT) A leviti Jozue, Kadmiel, Bani, Chašabniáš, Šerebiáš, Hodiáš, Šebaniáš a Fetachiáš odriekali túto modlitbu: „Vstaňte, dobrorečte Pánovi, svojmu Bohu, od vekov až naveky! A nech sa zvelebuje tvoje slávne meno, vyvýšené nado všetko zvelebovanie a chválu!

6 (UKJV) "You, even you, are LORD alone; you have made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and you preserve them all; and the host of heaven worships you. "
6 (KAT) Ty si, Pane, ty si jediný! Ty si urobil nebo a nebesá so všetkým ich vojskom, zem i všetko, čo je na nej, moria aj so všetkým, čo je v nich. Tomu všetkému ty dávaš život. Tebe sa klania nebeské vojsko.

7 (UKJV) "You are the LORD the God, who did choose Abram, and brought him forth out of Ur of the Chaldees, and gave him the name of Abraham; "
7 (KAT) Ty si, Pane, ten Boh, ktorý si vybral Abrama a vyviedol ho z Chaldejského Uru a dal si mu meno Abrahám.

8 (UKJV) "And found his heart faithful before you, and made a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, to give it, I say, to his seed, and have performed your words; for you are righteous: "
8 (KAT) Zistil si, že jeho srdce je verné tebe, uzavrel si s ním zmluvu, že dáš jeho potomstvu kanaánsku, hetejskú, amorejskú, ferezitskú, jebuzejskú a gergezejskú krajinu; a svoje slovo si dodržal, lebo ty si spravodlivý.

9 (UKJV) "And did see the affliction of our fathers in Egypt, and heard their cry by the Red sea; "
9 (KAT) Videl si sužobu našich otcov v Egypte a počul si ich výkrik pri Červenom mori.

10 (UKJV) And showed signs and wonders upon Pharaoh, and on all his servants, and on all the people of his land: for you knew that they dealt proudly against them. So did you get you a name, as it is this day.
10 (KAT) Urobil si znamenia a divy na faraónovi, na všetkých jeho služobníkoch a na celom ľude jeho krajiny, lebo si vedel, že s nimi bezohľadne nakladali. Urobil si si tak meno, aké je i dnes.

11 (UKJV) "And you did divide the sea before them, so that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land; and their persecutors you threw into the deeps, as a stone into the mighty waters. "
11 (KAT) Rozdvojil si more pred nimi, že prešli suchou nohou stredom mora. Tých však, čo ich prenasledovali, vrhol si do hlbín ako kameň do hlbokej vody.

12 (UKJV) "Moreover you led them in the day by a cloudy pillar; and in the night by a pillar of fire, to give them light in the way wherein they should go. "
12 (KAT) Vo dne si ich vodil oblačným stĺpom, v noci stĺpom ohnivým, aby si im osvecoval cestu, ktorou sa im bolo treba uberať.

13 (UKJV) You came down also upon mount Sinai, and spoke with them from heaven, and gave them right judgments, and true laws, good statutes and commandments:
13 (KAT) Potom si zostúpil na vrch Sinaj a hovoril si s nimi z neba a dal si im správne súdy, spoľahlivé zákony, dobré ustanovenia a prikázania.

14 (UKJV) And made known unto them your holy sabbath, and commandedst them precepts, statutes, and laws, by the hand of Moses your servant:
14 (KAT) Vyjavil si im tiež svoju svätú sobotu a prostredníctvom svojho služobníka Mojžiša dal si im prikázania, ustanovenia a zákon.

15 (UKJV) And gave them bread from heaven for their hunger, and brought forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and promised them that they should go in to possess the land which you had sworn to give them.
15 (KAT) Dal si im chlieb z neba, keď bol u nich hlad, a vyviedol si pre nich vodu zo skaly, keď boli smädní. Vyzval si ich, aby šli a zabrali krajinu, a zdvihol si svoju ruku, že im ju dáš.

16 (UKJV) But they and our fathers dealt proudly, and hardened their necks, and hearkened not to your commandments,
16 (KAT) Lenže oni, naši otcovia, si počínali pyšne, boli tvrdošijní a nevšímali si tvoje prikázania.

17 (UKJV) "And refused to obey, neither were mindful of your wonders that you did among them; but hardened their necks, and in their rebellion appointed a captain to return to their bondage: but you are a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and forsook them not. "
17 (KAT) Odopreli poslúchať a nerozpamätúvali sa na tvoje divy, ktoré si pre nich urobil, ale zatvrdili svoje šije, ustanovili si náčelníka a chceli sa vo svojej hlavatosti vrátiť do svojho otroctva. No ty si Boh, ktorý odpúšťa, si láskavý a milosrdný, dlho zhovievavý a veľkého zľutovania. Neopustil si ich.

18 (UKJV) "Yea, when they had made them a molten calf, and said, This is your God that brought you up out of Egypt, and had wrought great provocations; "
18 (KAT) Ešte ani vtedy, keď si urobili liate teľa a keď povedali: »To je tvoj boh, ktorý ťa vyviedol z Egypta« - a dopustili sa veľkého rúhania;

19 (UKJV) "Yet you in your manifold mercies forsook them not in the wilderness: the pillar of the cloud departed not from them by day, to lead them in the way; neither the pillar of fire by night, to show them light, and the way wherein they should go. "
19 (KAT) ty si ich vo svojom preveľkom milosrdenstve neopustil na púšti. Oblačný stĺp sa nehol od nich vo dne, aby ich viedol cestou, ani ohnivý stĺp v noci, aby im osvecoval cestu, ktorou sa im bolo treba uberať.

20 (UKJV) You gave also your good spirit to instruct them, and withheld not your manna from their mouth, and gave them water for their thirst.
20 (KAT) Svojho dobrého ducha si im dal, aby ich on učil. Ich ústam si neodoprel svoju mannu a dal si im vodu, keď ich trápil smäd.

21 (UKJV) "Yea, forty years did you sustain them in the wilderness, so that they lacked nothing; their clothes waxed not old, and their feet swelled not. "
21 (KAT) Štyridsať rokov si ich živil na púšti. Nechýbalo im nič. Odev sa im neodral a nohy im neopúchali.

22 (UKJV) Moreover you gave them kingdoms and nations, and did divide them into corners: so they possessed the land of Sihon, and the land of the king of Heshbon, and the land of Og king of Bashan.
22 (KAT) Dal si im kráľovstvá a národy a porozsádzal si ich po územiach. A tak zaujali dedične Sichonovu krajinu, krajinu Chešbonského kráľa, i krajinu bášanského kráľa Oga.

23 (UKJV) Their children also multiplied you as the stars of heaven, and brought them into the land, concerning which you had promised to their fathers, that they should go in to possess it.
23 (KAT) A ich synov si rozmnožil ako hviezdy na nebi a voviedol si ich do krajiny, o ktorej si hovoril ich otcom, že do nej vojdú a dedične ju zaujmú.

24 (UKJV) So the children went in and possessed the land, and you subdued before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, and gave them into their hands, with their kings, and the people of the land, that they might do with them as they would.
24 (KAT) I vošli synovia a zaujali dedične krajinu. Ponížil si obyvateľov krajiny Kanaánčanov pred nimi a vydal si im ich do ruky, ich kráľov aj národy tej krajiny, aby naložili s nimi, ako sa im páči.

25 (UKJV) And they took strong cities, and a fat land, and possessed houses full of all goods, wells dug, vineyards, and olive yards, and fruit trees in abundance: so they did eat, and were filled, and became fat, and delighted themselves in your great goodness.
25 (KAT) Vzali teda opevnené mestá a úrodnú pôdu a ujali sa vlastníckeho práva nad domami, v ktorých bolo plno dobrých vecí, vykopané studne, vinohrady, olivové záhrady a množstvo ovocných stromov. I jedli, nasýtili sa, stučneli a oplývali rozkošami v tvojej veľkej dobrote.

26 (UKJV) Nevertheless they were disobedient, and rebelled against you, and cast your law behind their backs, and slew your prophets which testified against them to turn them to you, and they wrought great provocations.
26 (KAT) Ale stali sa spurnými a vzbúrili sa proti tebe, tvoj zákon zahodili za svoj chrbát, povraždili tvojich prorokov, ktorí ich nabádali, aby sa vrátili k tebe, a dopúšťali sa veľkých rúhaní.

27 (UKJV) "Therefore you delivered them into the hand of their enemies, who vexed them: and in the time of their trouble, when they cried unto you, you heard them from heaven; and according to your manifold mercies you gave them saviours, who saved them out of the hand of their enemies. "
27 (KAT) Preto si ich vydal do ruky ich odporcov a sužovali ich. No keď v časoch svojej súžby volali zas k tebe, ty si ich vyslýchal z neba. Vo svojom veľkom zľutovaní dával si im vysloboditeľov, ktorí ich vyslobodzovali z rúk ich nepriateľov.

28 (UKJV) "But after they had rest, they did evil again before you: therefore left you them in the land of their enemies, so that they had the dominion over them: yet when they returned, and cried unto you, you heard them from heaven; and many times did you deliver them according to your mercies; "
28 (KAT) Len čo si však pooddýchli, opäť robili, čo sa ti nepáči, a preto si ich zasa poprepúšťal do rúk ich nepriateľov a oni panovali nad nimi. No keď sa obrátili a keď volali zas k tebe, ty si ich vyslýchal z neba a opätovne si ich vyslobodil vo svojich zľutovaniach.

29 (UKJV) "And testified against them, that you might bring them again unto your law: yet they dealt proudly, and hearkened not unto your commandments, but sinned against your judgments, (which if a man do, he shall live in them;) and withdrew the shoulder, and hardened their neck, and would not hear. "
29 (KAT) Napomínal si ich vážne, aby si ich prinavrátil k svojmu zákonu, lež oni vystrájali pyšne, tvoje prikázania neposlúchali a prehrešovali sa proti tvojim rozhodnutiam, skrze ktoré žije človek, čo ich nasleduje. Mykli plecom, boli hlavatí a neposlúchali.

30 (UKJV) Yet many years did you forbear them, and testified against them by your spirit in your prophets: yet would they not give ear: therefore gave you them into the hand of the people of the lands.
30 (KAT) Veľa rokov si im zhovieval a usvedčoval si ich svojím duchom prostredníctvom svojich prorokov, ale nepočúvali, a preto si ich vydal do rúk národov iných krajín.

31 (UKJV) "Nevertheless for your great mercies' sake you did not utterly consume them, nor forsake them; for you are a gracious and merciful God. "
31 (KAT) Lenže vo svojom preveľkom zľutovaní nedal si im celkom zahynúť a neopustil si ich, lebo ty si Boh láskavý a milosrdný.

32 (UKJV) Now therefore, our God, the great, the mighty, and the terrible God, who keep covenant and mercy, let not all the trouble seem little before you, that has come upon us, on our kings, on our princes, and on our priests, and on our prophets, and on our fathers, and on all your people, since the time of the kings of Assyria unto this day.
32 (KAT) A tak teraz, náš Bože, ty, veľký, mocný, hrozný Bože, ktorý milostivo zachovávaš zmluvu, nepokladaj za málo všetky útrapy, ktoré zastihli nás, našich kráľov, našich hodnostárov, našich kňazov, našich prorokov a našich otcov s celým tvojím ľudom od čias asýrskych kráľov až podnes!

33 (UKJV) "Nevertheless you are just in all that is brought upon us; for you have done right, but we have done wickedly: "
33 (KAT) Ty si, pravda, spravodlivý pri všetkom, čo na nás prišlo, lebo ty si konal verne, ale my sme sa dopúšťali nešľachetných vecí.

34 (UKJV) Neither have our kings, our princes, our priests, nor our fathers, kept your law, nor hearkened unto your commandments and your testimonies, wherewith you did testify against them.
34 (KAT) Naši králi, naši hodnostári, naši kňazi, ba i naši otcovia sa nesprávali tvojím zákonom a boli nevšímaví voči tvojim príkazom a výstrahám, ktoré si im dával.

35 (UKJV) For they have not served you in their kingdom, and in your great goodness that you gave them, and in the large and fat land which you gave before them, neither turned they from their wicked works.
35 (KAT) Oni ti neslúžili vo svojom kráľovstve a v tvojom hojnom dobrodení, ktoré si im preukazoval, a v krajine širokej a žírnej, ktorú si im dal, a neodvrátili sa od svojich zlých skutkov.

36 (UKJV) Behold, we are servants this day, and for the land that you gave unto our fathers to eat the fruit thereof and the good thereof, behold, we are servants in it:
36 (KAT) Preto sme dnes rabmi. V krajine, ktorú si dal našim otcom, aby požívali jej plody a jej dobré veci; áno, my sme v nej rabmi!

37 (UKJV) And it yields much increase unto the kings whom you have set over us because of our sins: also they have dominion over our bodies, and over our cattle, at their pleasure, and we are in great distress.
37 (KAT) A jej veľký výnos patrí teraz kráľom, ktorých si ty ustanovil nad nami pre naše hriechy. Vládnu nad našimi telami a naším dobytkom, ako sa im ľúbi, a my sme vo veľkej súžbe.“

38 (UKJV) "And because of all this we make a sure covenant, and write it; and our princes, Levites, and priests, seal unto it. "
