< Ezra 3 >
1 Thapa yung sari touh akuep toteh, Isarelnaw teh khopui vah ao awh teh, tamihupui teh, tami buet touh e patetlah Jerusalem vah a kamkhueng awh.
And when the seventh month was come, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem.
2 Hahoi, Zadok capa Jeshua hoi a hmaunawngha vaihmanaw hoi Shealtiel capa Zerubbabel hoi a hmaunawnghanaw a thaw awh teh, Cathut e tami Mosi e kâlawk dawk thut e patetlah hmaisawi thuengnae hah Isarelnaw e Cathut thuengnae khoungroe hah a sak awh.
Then stood up Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and builded the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings thereon, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
3 A tengpam kaawm e taminaw ni a taki awh nakunghai, khoungroe teh amae hmuen koe a ta teh, amom tangmin hmaisawi thuengnae hah, ahnimouh roi ni BAWIPA koevah hmaisawi thuengnae a sak roi.
And they set the altar upon his bases; for fear was upon them because of the people of those countries: and they offered burnt offerings thereon unto Yhwh, even burnt offerings morning and evening.
4 Lukkarei pawi hai a sak awh, thut tangcoung e patetlah hnintangkuem sak hanelah, a pouk awh e hoi a langri a sak awh e patetlah hmaisawi thuengnae hah a thueng awh.
They kept also the feast of tabernacles, as it is written, and offered the daily burnt offerings by number, according to the custom, as the duty of every day required;
5 Hathnukkhu hnintangkuem poe a sak a e hmaisawi thuengnae hoi thaparei katha hanelah a poenae hoi, BAWIPA hanelah a pouk e pawinaw pueng hoi ama lungthocalah lahoi, BAWIPA koe ouk thueng e hah a thueng awh.
And afterward offered the continual burnt offering, both of the new moons, and of all the set feasts of Yhwh that were consecrated, and of every one that willingly offered a freewill offering unto Yhwh.
6 BAWIPA e bawkim adu ung hoeh rah eiteh, thapa yung sari apasuek hnin hoi kamtawng teh, hmaisawi thuengnae hah, BAWIPA koe thuengnae a kamtawng awh.
From the first day of the seventh month began they to offer burnt offerings unto Yhwh. But the foundation of the temple of Yhwh was not yet laid.
7 Talungdêikathoumnaw hoi imsakkathoumnaw hai tangka a poe awh teh, Persia siangpahrang Sairus ni a hnâbo e patetlah sidar thing teh Lebanon talî koehoi, Joppa totouh thokhai hanelah Sidonnaw hoi Tairenaw hah ca hane rawcarawnei ca hane hoi satuinaw a poe awh.
They gave money also unto the masons, and to the carpenters; and meat, and drink, and oil, unto them of Sidon, and to them of Tyre, to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea of Joppa, according to the grant that they had of Cyrus king of Persia.
8 Jerusalem Cathut e im a pha awh nae, kum 2, thapa yung 2 nah Shealtiel capa Zerubbabel hoi Jozadak capa Jeshua hoi a hmaunawngha vaihmanaw, Levih miphunnaw hoi san dawk hoi thaw tawk hanelah a kamtawng awh teh, Levih miphun kum 20 touh a lathueng lae naw teh, BAWIPA im saknae koe kahrawikung lah a pouk awh.
Now in the second year of their coming unto the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all they that were come out of the captivity unto Jerusalem; and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to set forward the work of the house of Yhwh.
9 Hahoi, Jeshua hoi a capa, a hmaunawnghanaw, Kadmiel hoi a capanaw hoi, Judah capanaw, a thaw awh teh Cathut e im kasaknaw hah hmuen touh koe a khetyawt awh. Henadad capanaw a capanaw hoi a hmaunawngha Levihnaw hoi.
Then stood Jeshua with his sons and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, together, to set forward the workmen in the house of God: the sons of Henadad, with their sons and their brethren the Levites.
10 BAWIPA e bawkim kasaknaw ni adu a ung awh toteh, vaihmanaw ni khohnanaw a kho awh teh, mongka patuep laihoi Levih tami Asaph capanaw hah Isarel siangpahrang Devit ni a dei e patetlah, BAWIPA pholen hanelah a kangdue awh.
And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of Yhwh, they set the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise Yhwh, after the ordinance of David king of Israel.
11 Ama teh ahawi, Bangkongtetpawiteh, a lungmanae teh Isarelnaw e lathueng a yungyoe a cak, telah BAWIPA pholen awh teh lunghawi lawk dei laihoi la a sak awh. Hottelah BAWIPA pholen a toteh tamihupui abuemlah ni pueng hoi a hram awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA e im adu ung awh dawk doeh.
And they sang together by course in praising and giving thanks unto Yhwh; because he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised Yhwh, because the foundation of the house of Yhwh was laid.
12 Hateiteh, vaihma, Levihnaw hoi imthung kahrawikung tangawn, ahmaloe e im kahmawt e matawngnaw ni teh a hnukkhu e im adu ung e a hmu navah pueng hoi a khuika awh. Hatei tami tangawn teh a lunghawi dawk hoi a hram awh.
But many of the priests and Levites and chief of the fathers, who were ancient men, that had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice; and many shouted aloud for joy:
13 Hat toteh, taminaw ni lunghawi hramnae lawk hoi khuika hramnae lawknaw hah kapek thai awh hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, tamihupui teh poung hoi a hram awh dawkvah, kahlatpoung koehoi a ka thai.
So that the people could not discern the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people: for the people shouted with a loud shout, and the noise was heard afar off.
