Maybe you forgot to change your current working directory to "build"?

What I'd probably do is something like this:

   cd /path/to/bibletime_sources
   mkdir b # build directory, "b" for brevity :)
   cd b # <- important, as .. in the next command must be the source dir:
   cmake 
-DBT_DOCBOOK_XSL_HTML_CHUNK_XSL=/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/1.79.2/html/chunk.xsl 
-DBT_DOCBOOK_XSL_PDF_DOCBOOK_XSL=/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/nwalsh/1.79.2/fo/docbook.xsl 
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=install/ ..
   make -j$(nproc) # Or any -j#, such as -j4 for 4 parallel jobs
   make install # installs to the dir specified by CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
   # Now BibleTime is installed in /path/to/bibletime_sources/b/install
   install/bin/bibletime --debug # Runs BibleTime with debug messages on

If you could please tell us the name and version of the Linux 
distribution you are using, I could also try build it myself.
