1But when Sanballat heard that we were building the wall, he was angry, and was very indignant, and mocked the Jews.
1А кад чу Санавалат да зидамо зид, разгневи се и расрди се врло, и ругаше се Јеврејима,
2He spoke before his brothers and the army of Samaria, and said, “What are these feeble Jews doing? Will they fortify themselves? Will they sacrifice? Will they finish in a day? Will they revive the stones out of the heaps of rubbish, since they are burned?”
2и говораше пред браћом својом и војницима самаријским: Шта раде ти немоћни Јудејци? Хоћемо ли их оставити? Хоће ли приносити жртве? Хоће ли сада свршити? Еда ли ће у живот повратити из праха камење спаљено?
3Now Tobiah the Ammonite was by him, and he said, “What they are building, if a fox climbed up it, he would break down their stone wall.”
3А Товија Амонац који беше уза њ рече: Нека зидају; да лисица дође провалиће камени зид њихов.
4“Hear, our God, for we are despised. Turn back their reproach on their own head. Give them up for a plunder in a land of captivity.
4Чуј, Боже наш, како нас презиру; обрати руг њихов на њихову главу, и дај да буду грабеж у земљи где би робовали.
5Don’t cover their iniquity. Don’t let their sin be blotted out from before you; for they have insulted the builders.”
5И не покривај безакоња њихова, и грех њихов да се не избрише пред Тобом, јер Те дражише за оне који зидају.
6So we built the wall; and all the wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work.
6И тако зидасмо зид, и сав се зид састави до половине, и народ имаше вољу да ради.
7But when Sanballat, Tobiah, the Arabians, the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites heard that the repairing of the walls of Jerusalem went forward, and that the breaches began to be filled, they were very angry;
7А кад чу Санавалат и Товија и Арапи и Амонци и Азоћани да се поправља зид јерусалимски и да се почело затварати шта је проваљено, разгневише се врло;
8and they all conspired together to come and fight against Jerusalem, and to cause confusion among us.
8и сложише се сви заједно да дођу и да ударе на Јерусалим и да смету.
9But we made our prayer to our God, and set a watch against them day and night because of them.
9А ми се молисмо Богу свом и постављасмо стражу према њима дан и ноћ од страха њиховог.
10Judah said, “The strength of the bearers of burdens is fading and there is much rubble, so that we are not able to build the wall.”
10А Јудејци рекоше: Клонула је снага носиоцима, а праха има много, не можемо зидати зида.
11Our adversaries said, “They will not know or see, until we come in among them and kill them, and cause the work to cease.”
11А наши непријатељи рекоше: Да не дознаду и не опазе докле не дођемо усред њих, па ћемо их побити и прекинути посао.
12When the Jews who lived by them came, they said to us ten times from all places, “Wherever you turn, they will attack us.”
12Али дођоше Јудејци који код њих живљаху и казаше нам десет пута: Чувајте сва места куда се иде к нама.
13Therefore I set guards in the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, in the open places. I set the people by family groups with their swords, their spears, and their bows.
13Тада наместих народ у низинама иза зида и на стрменима, поставих народ по породицама са мачевима и копљима и луковима.
14I looked, and rose up, and said to the nobles, to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, “Don’t be afraid of them! Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your houses.”
14И разгледавши устах и рекох старешинама и главарима и осталом народу: Не бојте их се. Помените Господа великог и страшног, и бијте се за браћу своју, за синове своје и кћери своје, за жене своје и куће своје.
15When our enemies heard that it was known to us, and God had brought their counsel to nothing, all of us returned to the wall, everyone to his work.
15А кад чуше непријатељи наши да смо дознали, разби Господ њихову намеру, и ми се вратисмо сви к зиду, сваки на свој посао.
16From that time forth, half of my servants did the work, and half of them held the spears, the shields, the bows, and the coats of mail; and the rulers were behind all the house of Judah.
16И од тада половина мојих момака пословаше, а друга половина држаше копља и штитове и лукове и оклопе, и кнезови стајаху иза свега дома Јудиног.
17Those who built the wall, and those who bore burdens loaded themselves; everyone with one of his hands did the work, and with the other held his weapon.
17И који зидаху и који ношаху терет и који товараху сваки једном руком рађаше, а у другој држаше копље.
18Among the builders, everyone wore his sword at his side, and so built. He who sounded the trumpet was by me.
18А који зидаху, сваки имаху мач приписан уз бедрицу и тако зидаху. А трубач стајаше код мене.
19I said to the nobles, and to the rulers and to the rest of the people, “The work is great and widely spread out, and we are separated on the wall, far from one another.
19Јер рекох старешинама и главарима и осталом народу: Посао је велик и дуг и ми смо се расули по зиду далеко један од другог.
20Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, rally there to us. Our God will fight for us.”
20Где чујете трубу да труби, онамо трчите к нама; Бог наш војеваће за нас.
21So we did the work. Half of the people held the spears from the rising of the morning until the stars appeared.
21Тако рађасмо посао, и половина их држаше копља од зора па докле звезде не изиђу.
22Likewise at the same time I said to the people, “Let everyone with his servant lodge within Jerusalem, that in the night they may be a guard to us, and may labor in the day.”
22У то време још рекох народу: Сваки са момком својим нека ноћује у Јерусалиму да би нам ноћу стражили, а дању радили.
23So neither I, nor my brothers, nor my servants, nor the men of the guard who followed me took off our clothes. Everyone took his weapon to the water.
23А ја и моја браћа и момци моји и стражари што иду за мном нећемо свлачити са себе хаљина; у сваког да је мач и вода.
