15 Keihon nanghohi na Sana ule na dangka u jong nakipoh thei diuvin thaneina kapeuve hiche Jerusalem’a cheng Israel Pathen dia kiphal tah a kapedoh u ahiyenge.

Hambisani kuNkulunkulu weJerusalema zonke impahla eliziphathisiweyo ezokukhonza ethempelini likaNkulunkulu wenu.
20 Nanghon na Pathenu Houin na ding ahilouleh chutobang thildanga manchah dinga nangaichat u aumkhah tah jongleh leng inpi sumkholna a kon’in kilah jengun.

23 Van Pathen in a Houin dinga angaichat ibola eihon lengpale achate chunga Pathen lunghan na ikoulhah diuham?
Ingqe yini emiswe nguNkulunkulu wasezulwini, kakwenziwe ngokukhuthala kusenzelwa ithempeli likaNkulunkulu wasezulwini. Kakudingeki ukuthi ulaka luze lwehliselwe phezu kwenkosi lamadodana ayo.
24 Hiche to kimat a keiman kathupeh nom kit khat chu ahile, thempu, Levi, Lasa apang ho, Kelkot ngah ho, Houinna lhacha a pang ho chuleh Pathen Houin a natong dangho chu kai jatchom chomho apeh loudiu ahi.

25 Chuleh Ezra nangmahi na Pathen in napeh nachihna chu naman chah a Euphrates vadung lhumlam gamkai sunga um mipiho chunga vaihom ding Pathen daanthu hethemho thutan vaihom ding a napansah ding ahi.
Yikho wena Ezra, ngokuhlakanipha olakho okukaNkulunkulu wakho, beka abathonisi labehluleli ukwahlulela kuhle bonke abantu abangaphetsheya kweYufrathe, bonke abayaziyo imithetho kaNkulunkulu wenu. Kumele ufundise labo abangayaziyo.
26 Koi hileh Pathen daanthu nitlou leh lengpa daanthu juilou hochu gangtah a athu kitanna, kithat ding, ahilouleh kinodoh ding, ahilou jongleh anei agou kilahpeh ding ahilouleh songkul’a kikhum ding ahi,” ati.
Lowo ongawulaleliyo umthetho kaNkulunkulu wenu lomthetho wenkosi ngeqiniso umele ajeziswe ngokufa, loba ngokuxotshwa, loba ngokuhluthunelwa impahla loba ngokufakwa entolongweni.
27 Hichun Ezra in jong, “Ipu ipateo Pathen chu thangvah in umhen ajeh chu aman lengpa amangchan Jerusalem’a Pakai houin asemhoi tan ahi!
Udumo kalube kuThixo, uNkulunkulu wabokhokho bethu, okufakileyo enhliziyweni yenkosi ukuletha inhlonipho endlini kaThixo eJerusalema ngale indlela
28 Amachu thangvah in umhen ajeh chu alungsetna tanglou vin eimusah in, lengpa leh amilen amilal ho masanga eidom sangin hijeh chun keima tilkhouvin kaumin chuleh ka Pathen leh ka Pakai khotona khutchu kachunga aum jingin ahi. Hiti chun keiman Israel mite lamkai hochu kakou khommin Jerusalem lang’ah kakile taovin ahi.” ati.
njalo otshengise umusa wakhe kini phambi kwenkosi labeluleki bakhe lazozonke izinduna zakhe ezilamandla. Ngenxa yokuthi isandla sikaThixo uNkulunkulu wami besiphezu kwami, ngaba lesibindi ngaqoqa amadoda angabakhokheli ko-Israyeli ukuthi bahambe lami.
