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:
Ary izao no lohan’ ny fianakaviana sy filazana ny firazanan’ ny olona izay niara-niakatra tamiko avy tany Babylona tamin’ ny nanjakan’ i Artaksersesy mpanjaka:

10 from the descendants of Bani, Shelomith son of Josiphiah, and with him 160 men;
ny zanak’ i Josifia, avy tamin’ ny taranak’ i Selomita, mbamin’ ny namany enim-polo amby zato lahy;
11 from the descendants of Bebai, Zechariah son of Bebai, and with him 28 men;

13 from the later descendants of Adonikam, these were their names: Eliphelet, Jeiel, and Shemaiah, and with them 60 men;
ary ny avy tamin’ ny taranak’ i Adonikama, zandriny taoriana ireo, ary izao no anarany: Elifeleta sy Jeiela sy Semaia mbamin’ ny namany enim-polo lahy,
14 and from the descendants of Bigvai, both Uthai and Zaccur, and with them 70 men.
Otahy sy Zaboda, avy tamin’ ny taranak’ i Bigvay, mbamin’ ny namany fito-polo lahy.
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.
Ary novoriko teo amoron’ ny ony mankany Ahava izy, ka nilasy teo hateloana izahay; ary nony nandinika ny olona sy ny mpisorona aho, dia nahita fa tsy nisy taranak’ i Levy teo na dia iray akory aza.
16 Then I summoned the leaders: Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah, and Meshullam, as well as the teachers Joiarib and Elnathan.
Ka dia nirahiko Eliezera sy Ariela sy Semaia sy Elnatana sy Jariba sy Elnatana sy Natana sy Zakaria sy Mesolama (samy loholona ireo) ary Joariba sy Elnatana (samy mpampianatra ireo).
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.
Ary nampitondraiko teny ho any amin’ Ido, loholona any Kasifia, ireo, ka nambarako azy izay teny holazainy amin’ Ido sy ny Netinima rahalahiny any Kasifia, mba ho entiny any aminay izay ho mpanao fanompoam-pivavahana ao an-tranon’ Andriamanitray.
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;
Ary araka ny soa nataon’ ny tànan’ Andriamanitray taminay no nitondrany olon-kendry anankiray ho any aminay avy tamin’ ny taranak’ i Maly, zanak’ i Levy, zanak’ Isiraely, ary Serebia, sy ny zanany mbamin’ ny rahalahiny, valo ambin’ ny folo lahy,
19 also Hashabiah, together with Jeshaiah, from the descendants of Merari, and his brothers and their sons, 20 men.
ary Hasabia sy Jesaia, avy tamin’ ny taranak’ i Merary, mbamin’ ny rahalahiny ary ny zanany roa-polo lahy;
20 They also brought 220 of the temple servants, all designated by name. David and the officials had appointed them to assist the Levites.
ary avy tamin’ ny Netinima, izay notendren’ i Davida sy ny mpanapaka hanompo ny Levita, dia roa-polo amby roan-jato lahy; notononina anarana avokoa ireo.
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.
Dia niantso andro fifadian-kanina aho teo amoron’ ny ony Ahava hampahorianay tena eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitray, mba hangataka Azy hahalavorary ny dianay sy ny an’ ny vady aman-janakay ary ny biby fiompinay rehetra.
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.”
Fa nahamenatra ahy ny hangataka miaramila sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly amin’ ny mpanjaka hiaro anay amin’ ny fahavalonay eny an-dalana, satria efa niteny tamin’ ny mpanjaka izahay ka nanao hoe: Sy tànan’ Andriamanitray mahasoa izay rehetra mitady Azy; fa ny heriny sy ny fahatezerany kosa mamely izay rehetra mahafoy Azy.
23 So we fasted and petitioned our God about this, and He granted our request.
Ary nifady hanina izahay ka nangataka izany tamin’ Andriamanitray, dia nihaino anay Izy.
24 Then I set apart twelve of the leading priests, together with Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers,
Ary nanokana roa ambin’ ny folo lahy tamin’ ny lohan’ ny mpisorona aho, dia Serebia sy Hasabia ary rahalahiny folo lahy ho namany,
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.
ka nolanjaiko ny volafotsy sy ny volamena horaisiny mbamin’ ny fanaka, dia ny fanatitra ho ao an-tranon’ Andriamanitray, izay efa naterin’ ny mpanjaka sy ireo mpanolotsainy sy ireo mpanapaka ary ny Isiraely rehetra izay vory teo;
26 I weighed out into their hands 650 talents of silver, articles of silver weighing 100 talents, 100 talents of gold,
eny, nolanjaiko hatolotra azy ny talenta volafotsy dimam-polo amby enin-jato sy fanaka volafotsy, lanjan’ ny talenta zato, ary talenta volamena zato
27 20 gold bowls valued at 1,000 darics, and two articles of fine polished bronze, as precious as gold.
sy kapoaka volamena misarona roa-polo, lanjan’ ny darika arivo, ary fanaka varahina roa manganohano, tsara toy ny volamena.
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.
Ary hoy izaho taminy: Hianareo dia masìna ho an’ i Jehovah, sady masìna koa ny fanaka; ary ny volafotsy sy ny volamena dia fanati-tsitrapo ho an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razanareo.
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.”
Koa miambena ianareo, ka tandremo ireny mandra-pandanianareo azy indray eo anatrehan’ ny lohan’ ny mpisorona sy ny Levita ary ny lohan’ ny fianakaviana amin’ ny Isiraely any Jerosalema, dia amin’ ny efi-trano ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah.
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.
Dia noraisin’ ny mpisorona sy ny Levita izany volafotsy sy volamena ary fanaka voalanja izany mba ho entiny ho any Jerosalema ho ao an-tranon’ Andriamanitray.
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.
Dia niala teo amin’ ny ony Ahava izahay tamin’ ny andro faharoa ambin’ ny folo tamin’ ny volana voalohany mba hankany Jerosalema; ary ny tànan’ Andriamanitray nomba anay, ka Izy no namonjy anay tamin’ ny tanan’ ny fahavalo sy ny mpanotrika teny an-dalana.
32 So we arrived at Jerusalem and rested there for three days.
Ary nony tonga tany Jerosalema izahay, dia nijanona hateloana aloha.
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.
Ary tamin’ ny andro fahefatra no nandanjana ny volafotsy sy ny volamena ary ny fanaka ho eo an-tànan’ i Meremota, zanak’ i Oria mpisorona, tao an-tranon’ Andriamanitray; ary teo aminy koa Eleazara, zanak’ i Finehasa; ary teo amin’ izy roa lahy koa Jozabada, zanak’ i Jesoa, sy Noadia, zanak’ i Binoy; Levita izy roa lahy ireo;
34 Everything was verified by number and weight, and the total weight was recorded at that time.
an-isany sy an-danjany izany rehetra izany; ary voasoratra tamin’ izany andro izany ny lanjany rehetra.
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.
Ary ny olona izay niverina avy tamin’ ny fahababoana dia nanatitra fanatitra dorana ho an’ Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, dia vantotr’ ombilahy roa ambin’ ny folo ho an’ ny Isiraely rehetra sy ondrilahy enina amby sivifolo sy zanak’ ondry fito amby fito-polo ary osilahy roa ambin’ ny folo ho fanatitra noho ny ota: fanatitra dorana ho an’ i Jehovah ireo rehetra ireo.
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.
Ary ny didin’ ny mpanjaka dia natolony tamin’ ny solo-mpanjaka sy ny mpanapaka tamin’ ny etỳ an-dafin’ ny ony etỳ; ary izy ireo nampandroso ny olona sy ny tranon’ Andriamanitra.
