Ezra 6
1 Thus King Darius ordered a search of the archives stored in the treasury of Babylon.
Mokonzi Dariusi apesaki mitindo, mpe balukaki kati na babuku ya kala oyo ezalaki na Babiloni, kati na ebombelo bomengo ya mokonzi.
2 And a scroll was found in the fortress of Ecbatana, in the province of Media, with the following written on it: Memorandum:
Mpe bamonaki buku moko kati na Ekibatane, engumba mokonzi ya etuka ya Medi. Tala makomi oyo ezalaki kati na buku yango: « Ekaniseli:
3 In the first year of King Cyrus, he issued a decree concerning the house of God in Jerusalem: Let the house be rebuilt as a place for offering sacrifices, and let its foundations be firmly laid. It is to be sixty cubits high and sixty cubits wide,
Na mobu ya liboso ya mokonzi Sirisi, mokonzi Sirisi azwaki mokano na tina na Tempelo ya Nzambe kati na Yelusalemi: Tempelo ya Nzambe esengeli kotongama lisusu mpo ete ezala esika ya kobonza mbeka; boye esengeli kozongisa miboko na yango. Tempelo ekozala na bametele pene tuku misato na bosanda mpe bametele pene tuku misato na mokuse.
4 with three layers of cut stones and one of timbers. The costs are to be paid from the royal treasury.
Ekozala na milongo misato ya mabanga bakata mpe molongo moko ya mabaya ya sika mpo na motondo. Mbongo ya kofuta mpo na misala yango ekowuta na bomengo ya mokonzi.
5 Furthermore, the gold and silver articles of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took from the temple in Jerusalem and carried to Babylon, must also be returned to the temple in Jerusalem and deposited in the house of God.
Lisusu, biloko basala na wolo mpe na palata ya Ndako ya Nzambe, oyo Nabukodonozori azwaki na Tempelo kati na Yelusalemi mpe amemaki na Babiloni, esengeli kozonga na bisika na yango kati na Tempelo, na Yelusalemi; basengeli kotia yango kati na Ndako ya Nzambe.
6 Therefore Darius decreed: To Tattenai governor of the region west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and your associates and officials in the region: You must stay away from that place!
Sik’oyo, Tatinayi, moyangeli ya etuka oyo ezali na ngambo ya weste ya ebale Efrate, Shetari-Bozinayi mpe bino baninga na bango ya mosala, bakambi ya etuka, bozala mosika ya likambo oyo.
7 Leave this work on the house of God alone. Let the governor and elders of the Jews rebuild this house of God on its original site.
Botika ete misala ya kotonga lisusu Ndako oyo ya Nzambe ekoba. Tika ete moyangeli mpe bakambi ya Bayuda batonga yango lisusu na esika na yango ya kala.
8 I hereby decree what you must do for these elders of the Jews who are rebuilding this house of God: The cost is to be paid in full to these men from the royal treasury out of the taxes of the provinces west of the Euphrates, so that the work will not be hindered.
Tala mitindo oyo ngai nazali kopesa bino na tina na oyo bosengeli kosala mpo na kosunga bakambi ya Bayuda mpe mpo na misala ya botongi Ndako oyo ya Nzambe: ‹ Bosengeli tango nyonso kozwaka mbongo ya misala na bomengo ya mokonzi, oyo ewutaka na mpako oyo etuka ya ngambo ya weste ya ebale Efrate efutaka mpo na mokonzi, mpo na kofuta bato wana na ndenge ekoki mpe mpo ete misala etelema te.
9 Whatever is needed—young bulls, rams, and lambs for burnt offerings to the God of heaven, as well as wheat, salt, wine, and oil, as requested by the priests in Jerusalem—must be given to them daily without fail.
Bosengeli mpe kopesaka mikolo nyonso epai ya Banganga-Nzambe ya Yelusalemi biloko nyonso oyo bakozala na yango na bosenga mpo na mbeka ya kotumba ya Nzambe ya Likolo: bana ngombe ya mibali, bameme ya mibali, bana meme, ble, mungwa, masanga ya vino mpe mafuta. Soki bakomi na bosenga ya biloko, bino bosengeli kopesa bango yango mikolo nyonso, mpe esengeli te kozanga,
10 Then they will be able to offer sacrifices of a sweet aroma to the God of heaven and to pray for the lives of the king and his sons.
mpo ete bakoka kobonzaka mbeka ya solo kitoko epai ya Nzambe ya Likolo, mpe mpo ete basambelaka mpo na bomoi malamu ya mokonzi elongo na bana na ye ya mibali.
11 I also decree that if any man interferes with this directive, a beam is to be torn from his house and raised up, and he is to be impaled on it. And his own house shall be made a pile of rubble for this offense.
Bongo tala mokano oyo nasili kozwa mpo na moto nyonso oyo akobongola to akotosa te mitindo oyo: bakolongola libaya moko kati na ndako na ye, bakotelemisa yango, bakodiembika ye na libaya yango mpe bakokomisa ndako na ye mopiku ya biloko ya mbindo.
12 May God, who has caused His Name to dwell there, overthrow any king or people who lifts a hand to alter this decree or to destroy this house of God in Jerusalem. I, Darius, have issued the decree. Let it be carried out with diligence.
Tika ete Nzambe oyo atiaki Kombo na Ye kuna akweyisa mokonzi nyonso to bato nyonso oyo bakomeka kotombola loboko mpo na koboya kotosa to kobongola mitindo na ngai na kobuka Tempelo oyo ya Nzambe kati na Yelusalemi. Ezali ngai, Dariusi, moto napesi mitindo yango. Tika ete botosa yango malamu mpe na lombangu. › »
13 In response, Tattenai the governor of the region west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and their associates diligently carried out what King Darius had decreed.
Boye, Tatinayi, moyangeli ya etuka ya ngambo ya weste ya ebale Efrate, mpe Shetari-Bozinayi elongo na baninga na bango ya mosala batosaki mitindo ya mokonzi Dariusi na lombangu mpe na ndenge ezaleli.
14 So the Jewish elders built and prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah son of Iddo. They finished building according to the command of the God of Israel and the decrees of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes, kings of Persia.
Boye bakambi ya Bayuda bakobaki misala ya kotonga, mpe balongaki wana balendisamaki na maloba ya basakoli Aje mpe Zakari, mokitani ya Ido. Basilisaki kotonga kolanda mitindo ya Nzambe ya Isalaele mpe ya Sirisi, Dariusi, mpe Aritakizerisesi, bakonzi ya Persi.
15 And this temple was completed on the third day of the month of Adar, in the sixth year of the reign of King Darius.
Basilisaki kotonga Ndako mobimba ya Nzambe, na mokolo ya misato ya sanza ya Adari, tango mokonzi Dariusi akokisaki mibu motoba na bokonzi.
16 Then the people of Israel—the priests, the Levites, and the rest of the exiles—celebrated the dedication of the house of God with joy.
Bato ya Isalaele, Banganga-Nzambe, Balevi mpe bato mosusu oyo bawutaki na bowumbu basalaki feti ya libulisi ya Ndako ya Nzambe.
17 For the dedication of the house of God they offered a hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs, and a sin offering for all Israel of twelve male goats, one for each tribe of Israel.
Babonzaki bangombe ya mibali nkama moko, bameme ya mibali nkama mibale, bana meme nkama minei mpo na libulisi ya Ndako ya Nzambe; mpe bantaba ya mibali zomi na mibale, moko mpo na ekolo moko na moko ya Isalaele, lokola mbeka mpo na masumu ya Isalaele mobimba.
18 They also appointed the priests by their divisions and the Levites by their groups to the service of God in Jerusalem, according to what is written in the Book of Moses.
Bakabolaki mpe Banganga-Nzambe kolanda milongo na bango, mpe Balevi kolanda masanga na bango mpo na mosala ya Nzambe kati na Yelusalemi, ndenge ekomama kati na buku ya Moyize.
19 On the fourteenth day of the first month, the exiles kept the Passover.
Na mokolo ya zomi na minei ya sanza ya liboso, bana ya Isalaele oyo bawutaki na bowumbu basepelaki feti ya Pasika.
20 All the priests and Levites had purified themselves and were ceremonially clean. And the Levites slaughtered the Passover lamb for all the exiles, for their priestly brothers, and for themselves.
Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi bamipetolaki kolanda mibeko mpe bakomaki peto. Boye Balevi bakataki kingo ya mpate lokola mbeka ya Pasika mpo na bato nyonso oyo bawutaki na bowumbu, mpo na bandeko na bango, Banganga-Nzambe, mpe mpo na bango moko.
21 The Israelites who had returned from exile ate it, together with all who had separated themselves from the uncleanness of the peoples of the land to seek the LORD, the God of Israel.
Bana ya Isalaele oyo bawutaki na bowumbu baliaki yango elongo na bato nyonso oyo bakabwanaki na misala ya mbindo ya bikolo ya mokili mpe basanganaki elongo na bango mpo na koluka Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele.
22 For seven days they kept the Feast of Unleavened Bread with joy, because the LORD had made them joyful and turned the heart of the king of Assyria toward them to strengthen their hands in the work on the house of the God of Israel.
Na mikolo sambo, basalaki na esengo feti ya Mapa ezanga levire, pamba te Yawe atondisaki bango na esengo ndenge abongolaki makanisi ya mokonzi ya Asiri mpo ete asunga bango na misala ya botongi Ndako ya Nzambe, ya Nzambe ya Isalaele.
