Ezra 6
1 Then Darius the king gave an order and a search was made in the house of the records, where the things of value were stored up in Babylon.
Wa Darius te pibliye yon dekrè e yon rechèch te fèt nan achiv yo kote trezò yo te depoze Babylone nan.
2 And at Achmetha, in the great house of the king in the land of Media, they came across a roll, in which this statement was put on record:
Nan Achemetha, nan fò a, ki nan pwovens a Médie a, yo te twouve yon woulo, e ladann te ekri konsa kon yon rekòd anrejistre:
3 In the first year of Cyrus the king, Cyrus the king made an order: In connection with the house of God at Jerusalem, let the house be put up, the place where they make offerings, and let the earth for the bases be put in place; let it be sixty cubits high and sixty cubits wide;
Nan premye ane a Wa Cyrus la, Cyrus, wa a, te pibliye yon dekrè: Sou kay Bondye nan Jérusalem nan, kite tanp kote sakrifis konn vin ofri yo vin rebati, e kite fondasyon li yo konsève, wotè ki swasant koude a e lajè ki swasant koude a
4 With three lines of great stones and one line of new wood supports; and let the necessary money be given out of the king's store-house;
avèk twa ranje gwo wòch taye ak yon ranje an bwa. Epi kite frè a peye soti nan trezò wa a.
5 And let the gold and silver vessels from the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took from the Temple at Jerusalem to Babylon, be given back and taken again to the Temple at Jerusalem, every one in its place, and put them in the house of God.
Anplis, kite zouti an lò avèk ajan ki pou lakay Bondye yo, ke Nebucadnetsar te pran soti nan tanp Jérusalem nan pou te pote Babylone nan, remèt e fè retounen nan plas yo nan tanp Jérusalem nan. Konsa, nou va depoze yo nan kay Bondye a.
6 So now, Tattenai, ruler of the land across the river, and Shethar-bozenai and your people the Apharsachites across the river, keep far from that place:
Alò, pou sa, Thathnaï, ou menm, gouvènè pwovens lòtbò rivyè a, Schethar-Boznaï avèk kòlèg parèy ou yo, ofisyèl nan pwovens lòtbò rivyè yo, rete lwen de la.
7 Let the work of this house of God go on; let the ruler of the Jews and their responsible men put up this house of God in its place.
Kite travay sila sou kay Bondye a kontinye; kite gouvènè a Jwif yo avèk ansyen a Jwif yo rebati lakay Bondye a sou sit anplasman li an.
8 Further, I give orders as to what you are to do for the responsible men of the Jews in connection with the building of this house of God: that from the king's wealth, that is, from the taxes got together in the land over the river, the money needed is to be given to these men readily, so that their work may not be stopped.
Anplis, Mwen menm, Darius, ap bay yon dekrè sou sa nou gen pou fè pou ansyen sila yo nan Juda pou rekonstriksyon lakay Bondye sila a: Tout frè li se pou peye a pèp sila yo soti nan kès trezò ki sòti nan taks ki sòti nan pwovens lòtbò rivyè yo. Epi sa dwe fèt san fè reta.
9 And whatever they have need of, young oxen and sheep and lambs, for burned offerings to the God of heaven, grain, salt, wine, and oil, whatever the priests in Jerusalem say is necessary, is to be given to them day by day regularly:
Nenpòt sa ki nesesè, ni jenn towo, belye, ni jenn mouton pou ofrann brile a Bondye syèl la, e ble, sèl, diven ak lwil onksyon, jan prèt Jérusalem yo mande a, fòk sa bay a yo chak jou san manke,
10 So that they may make offerings of a sweet smell to the God of heaven, with prayers for the life of the king and of his sons.
pou yo kab ofri sakrifis agreyab a Bondye syèl la, e priye pou lavi a wa a avèk fis li yo.
11 And I have given orders that if anyone makes any change in this word, one of the supports is to be pulled out of his house, and he is to be lifted up and fixed to it; and his house is to be made waste for this;
Epi mwen te pibliye yon lòd ke nenpòt moun ki vyole dekrè sa a, yon travès bwa va rache sou pwòp kay li, li va leve wo, e atache sou li. E lakay li va devni yon gwo pil fatra.
12 And may the God who has made it a resting-place for his name send destruction on all kings and peoples whose hands are outstretched to make any change in this or to do damage to this house of God at Jerusalem. I, Darius, have given this order, let it be done with all care.
Ke Bondye ki te fè non Li rete la, ta dechouke nenpòt wa oswa pèp ki ta leve men l chanje sa a pou li ta detwi kay Bondye sa a, Jérusalem. Mwen, Darius, te pase lòd sa a. Kite li akonpli avèk dilijans!
13 Then Tattenai, the ruler across the river, and Shethar-bozenai and their people, because of the order given by King Darius, did as he had said with all care.
Alò, Thathnaï, gouvènè pwovens lòtbò rivyè a, Schethar-Boznaï, avèk kolèg parèy a yo te konfòme avèk dilijans a lòd sa a jan Wa Darius te voye bay li a.
14 And the responsible men of the Jews went on with their building, and did well, helped by the teaching of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah, the son of Iddo. They went on building till it was complete, in keeping with the word of the God of Israel, and the orders given by Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes, king of Persia.
Epi ansyen pami Jwif yo te reyisi nan konstriksyon an selon asistans pwofesi ki t ap fèt pa Aggée avèk Zacharie yo, fis a Iddo a. Konsa, yo te fin bati selon lòd Bondye Israël la, dekrè a Cyrus la, Darius ak Artaxerxès, wa a Perse la.
15 And the building of this house was complete on the third day of the month Adar, in the sixth year of the rule of Darius the king.
Tanp sa a te fini sou twazyèm jou nan mwa Adar a. Li te nan sizyèm ane règn Wa Darius la.
16 And the children of Israel, the priests and the Levites, and the rest of those who had come back, kept the feast of the opening of this house of God with joy.
Epi fis Israël yo, prèt yo, Levit yo ak tout lòt moun egzil ki te retounen yo, te selebre dedikasyon kay Bondye sila a avèk jwa.
17 And they gave as offerings at the opening of this house of God a hundred oxen, two hundred sheep, four hundred lambs; and for a sin-offering for all Israel, twelve he-goats, being the number of the tribes of Israel.
Yo te ofri pou dedikasyon tanp Bondye sila a san towo, de-san belye, kat-san jenn mouton, e kon ofrann peche pou tout Israël la, douz mal kabrit ki te koresponn a non tribi Israël yo.
18 And they put the priests in their divisions and the Levites in their order, for the worship of God at Jerusalem; as it is recorded in the book of Moses.
Epi yo te chwazi prèt yo a divizyon pa yo ak Levit yo nan lòd pa yo pou sèvis Bondye Jérusalem nan, jan sa ekri nan liv Moïse la.
19 And the children of Israel who had come back kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
Moun egzil yo te obsève fèt Pak la nan katòzyèm jou nan premye mwa a.
20 For the priests and the Levites had made themselves clean together; they were all clean: and they put the Passover lamb to death for all those who had come back, and for their brothers the priests and for themselves.
Paske prèt yo avèk Levit yo te fin pirifye yo ansanm, yo tout nan yo te pwòp. Epi yo te touye jenn mouton Pak la pou tout moun egzil yo, ni pou frè pa yo, prèt yo ak pou yo menm.
21 And the children of Israel, who had come back, and all those who were joined to them, after separating themselves from the evil ways of the people of the land to become the servants of the Lord, the God of Israel, took food together,
Fis a Israël ki te retounen an egzil yo, e tout sila ki te separe yo menm de lempite a nasyon nan peyi yo pou fè ansanm avèk yo, pou chache SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, te manje Pak la.
22 And kept the feast of unleavened bread for seven days with joy: for the Lord had made them full of joy, by turning the heart of the king of Assyria to them to give them help in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel.
Epi yo te obsève Fèt Pen San Ledven an pandan sèt jou avèk jwa, paske SENYÈ a te fè yo rejwi, e te detounen kè a wa a Assyrie a vè yo pou ankouraje yo nan travay lakay Bondye a, Bondye Israël la.
