Ezra 8
1 These are the family heads and genealogical records of those who returned with me from Babylon during the reign of King Artaxerxes:
Artaxerxes lengpa vaihom sungin Babylon na konna kahin kilhondohpi hochu insung lamkai holeh aphunggui’u dungjui in hiti hi ahi:

Adonikam insunga kon’in khonunga hung Eliphelet, Jeuel, Shemiah leh midang somgup ahiuve,
14 and from the descendants of Bigvai, both Uthai and Zaccur, and with them 70 men.
Bigvai insunga kon’in Uthai, Zaccur leh midang som sagi ahiuve.
15 Now I assembled these exiles at the canal that flows to Ahava, and we camped there three days. And when I searched among the people and priests, I found no Levites there.
Keiman sohchanga konna hungdoh hochu Ahava canal munnah kakhomin hichea chun nithum kageh un, hichea chun keiman mipiho toh thempu hichelai mun hung lhung hochu kakhol in ahileh Levi te khatcha jong ahung pangpoi ti keiman kamudoh in ahi.
16 Then I summoned the leaders: Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah, and Meshullam, as well as the teachers Joiarib and Elnathan.
Hijeh chun keiman alamkai hou Eliezer, Ariel, Shemiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Nathan, Elnathan, Zechariah leh Meshullam kaga koush in, chuleh Joiarib leh Elnathan jong kakousah in ahi, ajeh chu amani hi thumop them ahilhone.
17 And I sent them to Iddo, the leader at Casiphia, with a message for him and his kinsmen, the temple servants at Casiphia, that they should bring to us ministers for the house of our God.
Chuleh keiman Casiphia mun aum Levite lamkai Iddo komma chun mi kasolin amite ainsung mite leh Houin lhachaho komma chu Jerusalem ma Pathen houin lhacha sunga lhacha a pang ding mi ahinsol diuvin, ngehna nei ding in kasoltai.
18 And since the gracious hand of our God was upon us, they brought us Sherebiah—a man of insight from the descendants of Mahli son of Levi, the son of Israel—along with his sons and brothers, 18 men;
Ka Pathen u khotona khut chun eipuihoi jeh un, amahon Sherebiah kitipa achate le asopite somle get eihin solpeh un ahi. Amachu Israel chapa Levi chilhah ho lah a Mahli chilhah minasatah khat ahi.
19 also Hashabiah, together with Jeshaiah, from the descendants of Merari, and his brothers and their sons, 20 men.
Amahon Merari chilhah holah a kon’in Hashabiah chule Jeshaiah toh ahinsol thauvin chuleh achate le asopite somni jong ahin sollun chuleh
20 They also brought 220 of the temple servants, all designated by name. David and the officials had appointed them to assist the Levites.
Houin lhacha jani le somni jong ahin sol thauvin ahi.
21 And there by the Ahava Canal I proclaimed a fast, so that we might humble ourselves before our God and ask Him for a safe journey for us and our children, with all our possessions.
Hichun hichelai Ahava twilam mun’ah hin ka Pathen’u angsung’ah eyhole keiho kisunem tah a kabon chauva an-ngolla taoding in thupeh kaneijin ahi. Hiche kataonao chu ahileh, kakholjin naova hi keihole kachateo chuleh kathilkeo hotoh eipuihoi nadiuvin kataovun ahi.
22 For I was ashamed to ask the king for an escort of soldiers and horsemen to protect us from our enemies on the road, since we had told him, “The hand of our God is gracious to all who seek Him, but His great anger is against all who forsake Him.”
Ajeh chu keiman lampi dung’a melmate a konna eihongbit diuva lengpa komma sepai leh sakol chungtou sepai thum ding chu jachat um kasan ahi. Ajeh chu keiman lengpa komma chun, “Ka Pathen’u hin ama houte chu abanthahat’in ahongbit nin, amavang ama donlouva koite vang alunghanna hoisetah chun asugim jin ahi,” tia kana seidoh tan ahi.
23 So we fasted and petitioned our God about this, and He granted our request.
Hijeh chun keihon ka Pathen’un kataonao sana eihoi bitna diuvin an-ngol pummin lunggil tah in kataovun ahileh aman kataonao eisanpeh un ahi.
24 Then I set apart twelve of the leading priests, together with Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers,
Keiman thempu lah a kon’in lamkai somleni Sherebiah leh Hoshabiah chuleh thempu dang som chu kalhengdoh in mopohna panmun kanapen ahi.
25 and I weighed out to them the contribution of silver and gold and the articles that the king, his counselors, his leaders, and all the Israelites there had offered for the house of our God.
Ama hochun sana, dangka, sana khon holeh thilkeo dangho toh lengpa le a athumop them a vaihom hon Pathen houin na koiding’a ahin pehdoh uchu polut ding kapedoh tan ahi.
26 I weighed out into their hands 650 talents of silver, articles of silver weighing 100 talents, 100 talents of gold,
Keiman hiche thillu hochu kapeh dohtoh kilhon’in, ka tetoh in ahileh hijat hi alhing in ahi: Dangka ton somni le li, Dangka a kisem thilkeo ho pound sangsagi le ja nga, sana pound sangsagi le ja nga,
27 20 gold bowls valued at 1,000 darics, and two articles of fine polished bronze, as precious as gold.
sana a kisem khon somni hichu Sana sum pum sangkhat toh aman kibang chuleh sana mantamtah toh kibang sum-eng kilha ngimsella kisem thil ni hicheng hi ahi.
28 Then I told them, “You are holy to the LORD, and these articles are holy. The silver and gold are a freewill offering to the LORD, the God of your fathers.
Keiman hiche thempuho komma chun: “Nangho leh hiche thilmanlu hohi Pakaiya dinga athenga kipedoh a nahi taove, hiche dangka le sana hohi ipu ipateu Pakai Pathen a dinga hung kikatdoh ahitai.
29 Guard them carefully until you weigh them out in the chambers of the house of the LORD in Jerusalem before the leading priests, Levites, and heads of the Israelite families.”
Hiche thillu hohi thempu holeh Leviho chuleh Israel lamkaiho khut a napehlut tokah un, phatah in chingtup un, amahon Jerusalem’a Pakai houin'a akoina munna akoi tengu leh phatah a atetoh diu ahi,” ati peh in ahi.
30 So the priests and Levites took charge of the silver and gold and sacred articles that had been weighed out to be taken to the house of our God in Jerusalem.
Hiti chun thempuho leh Levite chun Jerusalem houin'a Pakai thilkoina munna hiche thillu sanale dangka hochu pohlut nadinga mopohna chu ladingin anom taovin ahi.
31 On the twelfth day of the first month we set out from the Ahava Canal to go to Jerusalem, and the hand of our God was upon us to protect us from the hands of the enemies and bandits along the way.
Lha masapen, nisom le ni ni lhin nin, keihon Ahava twilam munchu kadalha taovin ahi. Chuleh Pathen mikhotona khut chun lamlhon lhungin melma holeh michomho khutna kon’in eihoidoh sah un ahi.
32 So we arrived at Jerusalem and rested there for three days.
Hiti chun Jerusalem chu damsel le bit kei chan kaga lhungun hichea chun nithum kakicholdo uvin ahi.
33 On the fourth day, in the house of our God, we weighed out the silver and gold and sacred articles into the hand of Meremoth son of Uriah, the priest. Eleazar son of Phinehas was with him, along with the Levites Jozabad son of Jeshua and Noadiah son of Binnui.
Kagalhun jou’u ani li channa in sana le dangka chuleh adang thillu ho jouse ka Pathen’u Houin nah hoitah in katetoh un, Uriah thempupa chapa Meremoth leh Phinehas chapa Eleazer toh Levi mi Jeshua chapa Jozabad chule Binnui chapa Noadiah kom ah pehlut nale nganse na akinei tan ahi.
34 Everything was verified by number and weight, and the total weight was recorded at that time.
Thiljouse chu ajatle agih jatchu aki tetoh soh keijin hicheng chu agihna jat pumpin kivaipohna dungjui in hoitah in akijihlut in ahi.
35 Then the exiles who had returned from captivity sacrificed burnt offerings to the God of Israel: 12 bulls for all Israel, 96 rams, 77 lambs, and a sin offering of 12 male goats. All this was a burnt offering to the LORD.
Hijouchun sohchanna a konna hungpotdoh ho cheng chun Israel Pathen’ah pumgo thilto akibolin ahi. Hiti chun amahon Israel Pathen’ah Israel pumpi dingin bongchal somle ni, kelngoi chal somko le gup leh kelngoi ja sagi le som sagi akatdoh un ahi. Amahon chonset thoidamna dingin kelchal somle ni jong akatdoh un ahi. Hiche ho jousehi Pakai komma pumgo thilto kin bolnan aneiyun ahi.
36 They also delivered the king’s edicts to the royal satraps and governors of the region west of the Euphrates, who proceeded to assist the people and the house of God.
Lengpa thupeh chu Euphrates vadung lhumlam gamkaija gamvaipo pa leh vaihom lenpen ho jouse kommah akithot lut sohkeijin, hijeh amaho chun akithopi soh keiyun ahi.
