< 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.
Imbilin ngarud ni Ari Dario ti pannakasukimat ti balay a nakaidulinan dagiti napapateg a listaan idiay Babilonia.
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:
Iti nasarikedkedan a siudad ti Ecbatana idiay Media, nasarakan ti maysa a nalukot a pagbasaan; daytoy ti nailanad:
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;
“Iti umuna a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Cyrus, nangipaulog ni Cyrus iti bilin maipanggep iti balay ti Dios idiay Jerusalem: 'Maipalubos ti pannakaibangon ti balay a pagidatonan. Ti kangato dagiti paderna ket innem a pulo a kubiko ken ti kaakabana ket innem a pulo a kubiko,
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;
nga addaan iti tallo a katoon ti dadakkel a bato ken maysa a katoon ti barbaro a kayo. Ket ti amin a magastos ket agtaud iti balay ti ari.
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.
Kasta met a maisubli dagiti balitok ken pirak nga alikamen a kukua ti balay ti Dios nga innala ni Nebukadnesar manipud iti templo idiay Jerusalem nga impanna iti templo idiay Babilonia. Maipatulod dagitoy iti templo idiay Jerusalem ken maidulin dagitoy iti balay ti Dios.'
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:
Ita, Tatnai, Setar Bozenai, ken dagiti kadduayo nga opisial nga agnanaed iti ballasiw ti karayan, saankayo a makibiang.
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.
Saanyo a pakibiangan ti pannakaaramid daytoy a balay ti Dios. Dagiti gobernador ken dagiti panglakayen a Judio ti mangibangonto daytoy a balay ti Dios iti dayta a lugar.
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.
Ibilbilinko a masapul nga aramidenyo daytoy para kadagitoy a panglakayen dagiti Judio a mangbangon iti daytoy a balay ti Dios: Dagiti pondo nga agtaud iti buis ti ari iti ballasiw ti Karayan ti mausarto a pangbayad kadagitoy a lallaki tapno saanda nga isardeng ti trabahoda.
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:
Aniaman a kasapulan—dagiti urbon a baka, dagiti kalakian a karnero, wenno dagiti urbon a karnero para iti daton a mapuoran para iti Dios ti Langit, agraman ti trigo, asin, arak, wenno lana, segun iti bilin dagiti padi iti Jerusalem—itedyo kadakuada dagitoy a banbanag iti inaldaw nga awan langanna.
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.
Aramidenyo daytoy tapno makaidatagda iti daton iti Dios ti Langit ket ikararagandak, nga ari, ken dagiti putotko a lallaki.
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;
Ibilbilinko a no siasinoman ti mangsalungasing iti daytoy naipaulog a bilin, masapul a maiguyod ti maysa a soleras ti balayna ket masapul a maiduyok isuna iti daytoy. Ket agbalin ngarud a gabsuon ti rugit ti balayna gapu iti daytoy.
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.
Dadaelen koma ti Dios nga agnanaed sadiay ti siasinoman nga ari ken dagiti tattao a mangsalungasing iti daytoy a balay ti Dios idiay Jerusalem. Siak ni Dario a mangibilbilin iti daytoy. Aramidenyo daytoy a naan-anay!”
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.
Kalpasanna, inaramid da Tatnai, Setar Boznai, ken dagiti kakaduada dagiti amin nga imbilin ni Ari Dario.
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.
Isu a nangipatakder dagiti panglakayen a Judio iti wagas nga insuro da Haggeo ken Zacarias babaen iti panangipadto. Imbangonda daytoy segun iti bilin ti Dios ti Israel, ken babaen iti bilin da Cyrus, Dario ken Artaxerxes, a dagiti ari ti Persia.
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.
Nalpas ti balay iti maikatlo nga aldaw iti bulan ti Adar, ken iti maikainnem a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Dario.
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.
Dagiti Israelita, dagiti padi, dagiti Levita ken dagiti nabati kadagiti naibalud idi ti nangidaton daytoy a balay ti Dios nga addaan iti rag-o.
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.
Nangidatonda iti sangagasut a baka, sangagasut a kalakian a karnero ken uppat a gasut nga urbon ti karnero para iti pannakaidaton iti balay ti Dios. Naidaton met ti sangapulo ket dua a kalakian a kalding a kas daton gapu iti basol para iti entero nga Israel, maysa para iti tunggal tribu ti Israel.
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.
Dinutokanda pay dagiti padi ken dagiti Levita iti pannakabingay a trabaho para iti panagserbida iti Dios idiay Jerusalem, a kas iti naisurat iti Libro ni Moises.
19 And the children of Israel who had come back kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
Isu a rinambakan dagiti naipanaw idi a kas balud ti Fiesta ti Ilalabas iti maikasangapulo ket uppat nga aldaw ti umuna a bulan.
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.
Dinalusan amin dagiti Levita ken dagiti padi ti bagida ken pinartida dagiti sagut para iti Fiesta ti Ilalabas para kadagiti amin a naipanaw idi a kas balud, agraman dagiti bagida.
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,
Dagiti Israelita a nangan kadagiti sumagmamano a karne a naisagana iti Fiesta ti Ilalabas ket dagiti nagsubli manipud iti pannakaipanaw idi a kas balud ken dagiti nangilasin kadagiti bagida manipud iti kinarugit dagiti tattao iti daga ken nangbirok kenni Yahweh, a Dios ti Israel.
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.
Rinambakanda a sirarag-o ti Fiesta ti Tinapay nga Awan Lebadurana iti las-ud ti pito nga aldaw, ta innikkan ida ni Yahweh iti rag-o ken tinignayna ti puso ti ari ti Asiria a mangpabileg kadagiti imada iti panagtrabaho iti balayna, ti balay ti Dios ti Israel.
