< Ezra 7 >
1 Many years later, during the reign of Artaxerxes king of Persia, Ezra son of Seraiah, the son of Azariah, the son of Hilkiah,
Ode bagohame gidigili, Adasegesisi da Besia hina bagade esalea, dunu afadafa ea dio amo Esela da esalu. Ea aowalali aowa da musa: gobele salasu hina ea dio amo Elane. Esela ea aowa fi da agoane esalusu.
2 the son of Shallum, the son of Zadok, the son of Ahitub,
Elane amoea mano da Elia: isa, amoea mano da Finia: se amoea mano da Abisiua amalu Bugai, Usai, Selahaia, Mila: iode, A:salaia, A:malaia, Ahaidabe, Sa: idoge, Sia: lame, Hiligaia, A:salaia, Sila: iya amalu Esela.
3 the son of Amariah, the son of Azariah, the son of Meraioth,
4 the son of Zerahiah, the son of Uzzi, the son of Bukki,
5 the son of Abishua, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the chief priest—
6 this Ezra came up from Babylon. He was a scribe skilled in the Law of Moses, which the LORD, the God of Israel, had given. The king had granted Ezra all his requests, for the hand of the LORD his God was upon him.
Esela da Isala: ili Hina Gode amo Ea sema Mousesegili dedene i, amo noga: ledafa dawa: i galu. Esela ea Hina Gode da e hahawane dogolegele fidisu. Amaiba: le, Besia hina bagade da ea adole ba: i liligi ema iasu. Ode fesuale amo Adasegesisi da Besia ouligi, Esela da Ba: bilone soge fisili Yelusaleme sogega gobele salasu dunu, Lifai dunu, Debolo diasu gesami hea: su dunu, Debolo sosodo aligisu dunu amola Debolo hawa: hamosu dunu, amo mogili gilisili oule asi.
7 So in the seventh year of King Artaxerxes, he went up to Jerusalem with some of the Israelites, including priests, Levites, singers, gatekeepers, and temple servants.
8 Ezra arrived in Jerusalem in the fifth month of the seventh year of the king.
Ilia da Ba: bilone soge yolesili asi eso magobo amola oubi magobo amoga, Gode Ea fidibiba: le, eso magobo amola oubi biyadu amoga Yelusalemega doaga: i.
9 He had begun the journey from Babylon on the first day of the first month, and he arrived in Jerusalem on the first day of the fifth month, for the gracious hand of his God was upon him.
10 For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, to practice it, and to teach its statutes and ordinances in Israel.
Esela da eno liligi mae dawa: le, eso huluane Hina Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i huluane idilalu, amola defele hawa: hamosu. Amola Isala: ili dunu ilia noga: le dawa: ma: ne, e da Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i ilima olelesu.
11 This is the text of the letter King Artaxerxes had given to Ezra the priest and scribe, an expert in the commandments and statutes of the LORD to Israel:
Esela da gobele salasu dunu amola bagade dawa: su dunu. E da sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i amo Hina Gode da Isala: ili dunuma i, amo huluane bagade dawa: i. Adasegesisi da Eselama amo meloa dedene i.
12 Artaxerxes, king of kings. To Ezra the priest, the scribe of the Law of the God of heaven: Greetings.
“Na da Adasegesisi, Besia hina bagade. Na da di, Esela, gobele salasu dunu amola Hebene Gode Ea sema bagade dawa: su dunu, dima meloa dedene iaha.
13 I hereby decree that any volunteers among the Israelites in my kingdom, including the priests and Levites, may go up with you to Jerusalem.
Na sia: da na soge huluane ganodini, nowa Isala: ili dunu, gobele salasu dunu amola Lifai dunu, nowa da dima sigi masusa: dawa: sea, ilia da masunu da defea.
14 You are sent by the king and his seven counselors to evaluate Judah and Jerusalem according to the Law of your God, which is in your hand.
Na amola na gasolo dunu fesuale gala da di Yelusaleme amola Yuda soge amoea hou abedema: ne asula ahoa. Di da dia Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i amoma ouligisu dunu. Amaiba: le, amo dunu ilia sema amoma nabasu hou ba: la masa.
15 Moreover, you are to take with you the silver and gold that the king and his counselors have freely offered to the God of Israel, whose dwelling is in Jerusalem,
Na amola na gasolo dunu da gouli, silifa amola eno iasu liligi, Isala: ili Gode amo Ea Debolo diasu da Yelusalemega diala amoga legemusa: , dilima imunusa: dawa: lala. Amaiba: le, amo liligi, di lale, gaguli masa.
16 together with all the silver and gold you may find in all the province of Babylon, as well as the freewill offerings of the people and priests to the house of their God in Jerusalem.
Di ahoasea, gouli amola silifa dia Ba: bilone sogega lidi amo Godema imunusa: Isala: ili dunu amola gobele salasu dunu amola ilia da ilia Gode Ea Debolo diasu Yelusaleme ganodini amoma i, amo amola gaguli masa.
17 With this money, therefore, you are to buy as many bulls, rams, and lambs as needed, together with their grain offerings and drink offerings, and offer them on the altar at the house of your God in Jerusalem.
Amo muniga, dawa: iwane bidi lama. Di bulamagau, sibi gawali, sibi mano, gagoma amola waini, amo Yelusaleme Debolo diasu ganodini oloda da: iya gobele salasu hamoma: ne, bidi lama.
18 You and your brothers may do whatever seems best with the rest of the silver and gold, according to the will of your God.
Di da liligi gouli amola silifa hame lai oda mogili dialebe ba: sea, dia fi dunu ilia hanaiga, Gode Ea hanai defele, liligi lamu da defea.
19 You must deliver to the God of Jerusalem all the articles given to you for the service of the house of your God.
Di da ofodo huluane debolo diasu amo ganodini hawa: hamoma: ne dima i, amo Yelusalemega doaga: sea, Godema ima.
20 And if anything else is needed for the house of your God that you may have occasion to supply, you may pay for it from the royal treasury.
Amola adi liligi eno dia Debolo diasu amogili lamusa: hanai galea, amo liligi di hina bagade ea muni lelegesu amoga lama.
21 I, King Artaxerxes, decree to all the treasurers west of the Euphrates: Whatever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the Law of the God of heaven, may require of you, it must be provided promptly,
Amola na da eagene muni ouligisu dunu Guma: dini Iufala: idisi soge amo ganodini ilima amane sia: sa. ‘Esela gobele salasu dunu amola Hebene Esalebe Gode Ea sema bagade dawa: su dunu amo da dilima liligi adole ba: sea, hedolowane ema ima.
22 up to a hundred talents of silver, a hundred cors of wheat, a hundred baths of wine, a hundred baths of olive oil, and salt without limit.
Huluane ima. Be silifa ea dioi defei 3,400 gilogala: me, widi ea dioi defei 10,000 gilogala: me, waini ea defei 2,000 lida amola olife susuligi ea defei 2,000 lida amo defei mae baligima. Be deme ilia hanai defele ima.
23 Whatever is commanded by the God of heaven must be done diligently for His house. For why should wrath fall on the realm of the king and his sons?
Noga: le dawa: ma! Liligi huluane Hebene Esalebe Gode da Ea Debolo diasu ganodini legemusa: dawa: sea, amo ima. Bai, agoane hamosea, E da hobea nama, amola fa: no mabe Besia hina bagade dunu ilima hame ougimu.
24 And be advised that you have no authority to impose tribute, duty, or toll on any of the priests, Levites, singers, doorkeepers, temple servants, or other servants of this house of God.
Dilia eagene dunu! Dilia gobele salasu dunu, Lifai dunu, gesami hea: su dunu, sosodo aligisu dunu amola debolo hawa: hamosu dunu huluane ilima eagene su (da: gisi) maedafa lama.
25 And you, Ezra, according to the wisdom of your God which you possess, are to appoint magistrates and judges to judge all the people west of the Euphrates—all who know the laws of your God. And you are to teach these laws to anyone who does not know them.
Di, Esela! Gode da dima bagade dawa: su ia dagoiba: le, di ouligisu dunu amola fofada: su dunu ilegema. Ilia da dunu huluane Guma: dini Iufala: idisi soge ganodini Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i amoma fa: no bobogesa, amo ouligima: ne sia: ma. Amola nowa da Gode Ea sema hame dawa: sa, ilima amo sema olelema.
26 If anyone does not keep the law of your God and the law of the king, let a strict judgment be executed against him, whether death, banishment, confiscation of property, or imprisonment.
Nowa dunu da Gode Ea sema o Besia eagene sema amo hame nabasea, amo dunuma hedolowane se dabe ima. Ema agoane se dabe ima. Medole legema o mugululi masa: ne, sefasima o ea liligi huluane lama o se iasu diasu amo ganodini salima.” Adadegesisi da amo meloa dedene, Eselama i.
27 Blessed be the LORD, the God of our fathers, who has put into the heart of the king to so honor the house of the LORD in Jerusalem,
Esela e amane sia: i, “Ninia aowalali ilia Hina Godema nodoma! Gode da Besia hina bagade ea dogo ganodini olelebeba: le, e da Hina Gode Ea Debolo diasu Yelusaleme amo ganodini amo nodone fidisu.
28 and who has shown me favor before the king, his counselors, and all his powerful officials. And because the hand of the LORD my God was upon me, I took courage and gathered the leaders of Israel to return with me.
Gode da nama asigidafa hou hamobeba: le, Besia hina bagade, ea gasolo dunu amola ea gasa bagade ouligisu dunu huluane da nama hahawane gala. Na Hina Gode da na dogo denesiba: le, Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu bagohame da na sia: beba: le mugululi asi fisili, na sigi bu Isala: ili sogega buhagisa.
