< Ezra 6 >

1 Then Darius the king made a decree, and caused a search to be made in the record-offices, where the treasure is stored in Babylon.
Te vaengah Darius manghai loh saithainah a paek tangloeng tih Babylon kah a khueh cabu im kah cabu te a thaih uh.
2 And there was found in the city, in the palace, a volume, and this was the record written in it.
Tedae Media paeng kah manghai im, Akhametha ah cayol te a hmuh tih a khui ah cathut a daek.
3 In the first year of king Cyrus, Cyrus the king made a decree concerning the holy house of God that was in Jerusalem, [saying, ]Let the house be built, and the place where they sacrifice the sacrifices. (Also he appointed its elevation, in height sixty cubits; its breadth [was] of sixty cubits.)
Manghai Cyrus kah kum khat dongah tah manghai Cyrus amah loh Jerusalem kah Pathen im te saithainah a paek tih, “Im te hmueih aka nawn kah hmuen ah sa saeh. A khoengim te a sang dong sawmrhuk a ka dong sawmrhuk la saeng.
4 And [let there be] three strong layers of stone, and one layer of timber; and the expense shall be paid out of the house of the king.
Lung nu than thum, thing than at saeh. Hnonah ham te manghai im lamloh pae saeh.
5 And the silver and the gold vessels of the house of God, which Nabuchodonosor carried off from the house that was in Jerusalem, and carried to Babylon, let them even be given, and be carried to the temple that is in Jerusalem, and put in the place where they were set in the house of God.
Pathen im hnopai pataeng sui khaw cak khaw, Nebukhadnezzar loh Jerusalem bawkim lamkah a loh tih Babylon la a khuen te mael saeh lamtah Jerusalem kah bawkim te amah hmuen la paan saeh lamtah Pathen im ah khueh laeh? a ti nah.
6 Now, you rulers beyond the river, Satharbuzanai, and their fellow-servants the Apharsachaeans, who [are] on the other side of the river, give [these things], keeping far from that place.
Tattenai, sok paem boei Shetharboznai neh sok paem kah a boei hui rhoek te lamloh val om laeh saeh.
7 Now let alone the work of the house of God: let the rulers of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build that house of God on its place.
Pathen im kah imsak nen he hlah uh laeh. Yahudi boei neh Yahudi a hamca rhoek loh Pathen im he amah hmuen la sa uh saeh.
8 Also a decree has been made by me, if haply you may do somewhat in concert with the elders of the Jews for the building of that house of God: to wit, out of the king's property, [even] the tributes beyond the river, let there be money to defray the expenses carefully granted to those men, so that they be not hindered.
Yahudi a hamca rhoek taengah na saii uh ham te kai lamloh saithainah om coeng tih Pathen im he sa saeh. Te vaengah manghai koe lamloh sok paem mangmu lamkah tluem tluem hnonah saeh. Hlang rhoek taengah pae saeh lamtah paa boel saeh.
9 And whatever need [there may be], you shall give both the young of bulls and rams, and lambs for whole burnt offerings to the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, oil: —let it be given them according to the word of the priests that are in Jerusalem, day by day whatever they shall ask;
A ngoe te tah vaan Pathen taengah hmueihhlutnah vaito ca neh tutal khaw tuca khaw, cangyen, lungkaehtael, misurtui neh situi khaw Jerusalem kah khosoih rhoek loh a hoe bangla a hnin, a hnin ah amih te dalrhanah om kolla pae.
10 that they may offer sweet savours to the God of heaven, and that they may pray for the life of the king and his sons.
Vaan pathen taengah hlihlim neh a nawn la om uh saeh lamtah manghai neh a ca rhoek kah hingnah ham thangthui saeh.
11 And a decree has been made by me, that every man who shall alter this word, timber shall be pulled down from his house, and let him be lifted up and slain upon it, and his house shall be confiscated.
Kai lamkah saithainah om tih he ol aka poe hlang boeih tah a im kah rhungsut te phong saeh lamtah a sut phoeiah anih te hoei saeh. Te dongah a im khaw kawnhnawt la om saeh.
12 And may the God whose name dwells there, overthrow every king and people who shall stretch out his hand to alter or destroy the house of God which is in Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree; let it be diligently [attended to].
Pathen loh amah ming a khueh thil Jerusalem kah Pathen im he hoilae ham neh palet ham a kut a thueng boeih tah manghai neh pilnam khaw palet van saeh. Kai Darius kah saithainah ka khueh he tluem tluem saii saeh,” a ti.
13 Then Thanthanai the governor on this side beyond the river, Satharbuzanai, and his fellow-servants, according to that which king Darius sent, so they did diligently.
Sok paem boei Tattenai, Shetharboznai neh a hui rhoek long khaw manghai Darius kah a pat bangla tluem tluem a saii uh.
14 And the elders of the Jews and the Levites built, at the prophecy of Aggaeus the prophet, and Zacharias the son of Addo: and they built up, and finished [it], by the decree of the God of Israel, and by the decree of Cyrus, and Darius, and Arthasastha, kings of the Persians.
Yahudi a hamca rhoek khaw a sak uh vaengah tonghma Haggai neh Iddo capa Zekhariah kah olphong dongah thaihtak uh. Persia manghai Cyrus, Darius neh Artaxerxes lamkah saithainah dongkah Israel Pathen kah saithainah bangla a sak uh tih a coeng uh.
15 And they finished this house by the third day of the month Adar, which is the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
Te dongah manghai Darius ram kah a kum rhuk, Adar hla, hnin thum hlan ah im te a coeng.
16 And the children of Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of the house of God with gladness.
Te dongah Israel ca rhoek, khosoih rhoek neh Levi rhoek, hlangsol ca rhoek boeih loh Pathen im nawnnah he kohoenah neh a saii uh.
17 And they offered for the dedication of the house of God a hundred calves, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs, twelve kids of the goats for a sin-offering for all Israel, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
Te vaengah Pathen im nawnnah ham te vaito yakhat, tutal yakhat, tuca ya li, boirhaem dongkah ham boirhaem maae tal khaw a nawn uh. Israel pum hlai nit ham te Israel koca kah hlangmi tarhing la a nawnuh.
18 And they set the priests in their divisions, and the Levites in their separate orders, for the services of God in Jerusalem, according to the writing of the book of Moses.
Moses cabu dongkah cadaek bangla Jerusalem kah Pathen imsak dongah khosoih rhoek khaw amah boelnah neh, Levi khaw amah tarhoi neh a pai sakuh.
19 And the children of the captivity kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
Tedae vangsawn koca rhoek loh hla khat hnin hlai li vaengah Yoom te a saii uh.
20 For the priests and Levites were purified, all were clean to a man, and they killed the passover for all the children of the captivity, and for their brethren the priests, and for themselves.
Khosoih rhoek neh Levi rhoek loh pakhat la caihcil uh tih amih te boeih a cim phoeiah tah vangsawn ca boeih ham khaw, a manuca khosoih ham khaw amamih ham Yoom a ngawn uh.
21 And the children of Israel ate the passover, [even] they that were of the captivity, and every one who separated himself to them from the uncleanness of the nations of the land, to seek the Lord God of Israel.
Te vaengah vangsawn lamkah aka mael Israel ca rhoek neh a kaepvai khohmuen kah namtom tihnai khui lamloh Israel Pathen BOEIPA te toem ham aka hoep uh boeih loh a caak uh.
22 and they kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with gladness, because the Lord made them glad, and he turned the heart of the king of Assyria to them, to strengthen their hands in the works of the house of the God of Israel.
Vaidamding khotue khaw hnin rhih khuiah kohoenah neh a saii uh. Israel Pathen kah Pathen im bitat dongah amih kut te moem pah ham Assyria manghai loh amih taengah lungbuei a tho dongah BOEIPA loh amih te ko a hoe sak.
