< Ezra 7 >
1 Now after these things, during the reign of Artaxerxes, the king of the Persians, Ezra, the son of Seraiah, the son of Azariah, the son of Hilkiah,
Ode bagohame gidigili, Adasegesisi da Besia hina bagade esalea, dunu afadafa ea dio amo Esela da esalu. Ea aowalali aowa da musa: gobele salasu hina ea dio amo Elane. Esela ea aowa fi da agoane esalusu.
2 the son of Shallum, the son of Zadok, the son of Ahitub,
Elane amoea mano da Elia: isa, amoea mano da Finia: se amoea mano da Abisiua amalu Bugai, Usai, Selahaia, Mila: iode, A:salaia, A:malaia, Ahaidabe, Sa: idoge, Sia: lame, Hiligaia, A:salaia, Sila: iya amalu Esela.
3 the son of Amariah, the son of Azariah, the son of Meraioth,
4 the son of Zerahiah, the son of Uzzi, the son of Bukki,
5 the son of Abishua, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, priest from the beginning,
6 this same Ezra, ascended from Babylon; and he was a proficient scribe in the law of Moses, which the Lord God gave to Israel. And the king granted to him his every petition. For the hand of the Lord, his God, was over him.
Esela da Isala: ili Hina Gode amo Ea sema Mousesegili dedene i, amo noga: ledafa dawa: i galu. Esela ea Hina Gode da e hahawane dogolegele fidisu. Amaiba: le, Besia hina bagade da ea adole ba: i liligi ema iasu. Ode fesuale amo Adasegesisi da Besia ouligi, Esela da Ba: bilone soge fisili Yelusaleme sogega gobele salasu dunu, Lifai dunu, Debolo diasu gesami hea: su dunu, Debolo sosodo aligisu dunu amola Debolo hawa: hamosu dunu, amo mogili gilisili oule asi.
7 And some from the sons of Israel, and from the sons of the priests, and from the sons of the Levites, and from the singing men, and from the gatekeepers, and from the temple servants ascended to Jerusalem, in the seventh year of king Artaxerxes.
8 And they arrived at Jerusalem in the fifth month, in the same seventh year of the king.
Ilia da Ba: bilone soge yolesili asi eso magobo amola oubi magobo amoga, Gode Ea fidibiba: le, eso magobo amola oubi biyadu amoga Yelusalemega doaga: i.
9 For on the first day of the first month, he began to ascend from Babylon, and on the first day of the fifth month, he arrived at Jerusalem. For the good hand of his God was over him.
10 For Ezra prepared his heart, so that he might search the law of the Lord, and so that he might keep and teach precept and judgment in Israel.
Esela da eno liligi mae dawa: le, eso huluane Hina Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i huluane idilalu, amola defele hawa: hamosu. Amola Isala: ili dunu ilia noga: le dawa: ma: ne, e da Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i ilima olelesu.
11 Now this is a copy of the letter of the edict, which king Artaxerxes gave to Ezra, the priest, a scribe well-taught in the words and precepts of the Lord and in his ceremonies in Israel:
Esela da gobele salasu dunu amola bagade dawa: su dunu. E da sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i amo Hina Gode da Isala: ili dunuma i, amo huluane bagade dawa: i. Adasegesisi da Eselama amo meloa dedene i.
12 “Artaxerxes, king of kings, to Ezra, the priest, a very learned scribe of the law of the God of heaven: a greeting.
“Na da Adasegesisi, Besia hina bagade. Na da di, Esela, gobele salasu dunu amola Hebene Gode Ea sema bagade dawa: su dunu, dima meloa dedene iaha.
13 It has been decreed by me, that whosoever wishes, among the people of Israel and their priests and Levites within my kingdom, to go to Jerusalem, may go with you.
Na sia: da na soge huluane ganodini, nowa Isala: ili dunu, gobele salasu dunu amola Lifai dunu, nowa da dima sigi masusa: dawa: sea, ilia da masunu da defea.
14 For you have been sent from the face of the king and his seven counselors, so that you may visit Judea and Jerusalem by the law of your God, which is in your hand,
Na amola na gasolo dunu fesuale gala da di Yelusaleme amola Yuda soge amoea hou abedema: ne asula ahoa. Di da dia Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i amoma ouligisu dunu. Amaiba: le, amo dunu ilia sema amoma nabasu hou ba: la masa.
15 and so that you may carry the silver and gold, which the king and his counselors have freely offered to the God of Israel, whose tabernacle is in Jerusalem.
Na amola na gasolo dunu da gouli, silifa amola eno iasu liligi, Isala: ili Gode amo Ea Debolo diasu da Yelusalemega diala amoga legemusa: , dilima imunusa: dawa: lala. Amaiba: le, amo liligi, di lale, gaguli masa.
16 And all the silver and gold, as much as you will find in the entire province of Babylon, and which the people will wish to offer, and which some of the priests will offer freely to the house of their God, which is in Jerusalem,
Di ahoasea, gouli amola silifa dia Ba: bilone sogega lidi amo Godema imunusa: Isala: ili dunu amola gobele salasu dunu amola ilia da ilia Gode Ea Debolo diasu Yelusaleme ganodini amoma i, amo amola gaguli masa.
17 accept it freely. And with this money, carefully purchase calves, rams, lambs, and their sacrifices and libations, and offer these upon the altar of the temple of your God, which is in Jerusalem.
Amo muniga, dawa: iwane bidi lama. Di bulamagau, sibi gawali, sibi mano, gagoma amola waini, amo Yelusaleme Debolo diasu ganodini oloda da: iya gobele salasu hamoma: ne, bidi lama.
18 But also, whatever it will please you and your brothers to do with the remainder of the silver and gold, do so in accord with the will of your God.
Di da liligi gouli amola silifa hame lai oda mogili dialebe ba: sea, dia fi dunu ilia hanaiga, Gode Ea hanai defele, liligi lamu da defea.
19 Likewise, the vessels that have been given to you for the ministry of the house of your God, deliver these to the sight of God in Jerusalem.
Di da ofodo huluane debolo diasu amo ganodini hawa: hamoma: ne dima i, amo Yelusalemega doaga: sea, Godema ima.
20 Then, whatever more will be needed for the house of your God, as much as is necessary for you to spend, it shall be given from the treasury, and from the king’s finances,
Amola adi liligi eno dia Debolo diasu amogili lamusa: hanai galea, amo liligi di hina bagade ea muni lelegesu amoga lama.
21 and by me. I, king Artaxerxes, have appointed and decreed to all the keepers of the public treasury, those who are beyond the river, that whatever Ezra, the priest, a scribe of the law of the God of heaven, shall ask of you, you shall provide it without delay,
Amola na da eagene muni ouligisu dunu Guma: dini Iufala: idisi soge amo ganodini ilima amane sia: sa. ‘Esela gobele salasu dunu amola Hebene Esalebe Gode Ea sema bagade dawa: su dunu amo da dilima liligi adole ba: sea, hedolowane ema ima.
22 even up to one hundred talents of silver, and up to one hundred cors of wheat, and up to one hundred baths of wine, and up to one hundred baths of oil, and truly salt without measure.
Huluane ima. Be silifa ea dioi defei 3,400 gilogala: me, widi ea dioi defei 10,000 gilogala: me, waini ea defei 2,000 lida amola olife susuligi ea defei 2,000 lida amo defei mae baligima. Be deme ilia hanai defele ima.
23 All that pertains to the rite of the God of heaven, let it be distributed scrupulously to the house of the God of heaven, lest perhaps he may become angry against the kingdom of the king and his sons.
Noga: le dawa: ma! Liligi huluane Hebene Esalebe Gode da Ea Debolo diasu ganodini legemusa: dawa: sea, amo ima. Bai, agoane hamosea, E da hobea nama, amola fa: no mabe Besia hina bagade dunu ilima hame ougimu.
24 Likewise, we would make known to you, about all the priests, and the Levites, and the singers, and the gatekeepers, and the temple servants, and the ministers of the house of this God, that you have no authority to impose tax, or tribute, or duty upon them.
Dilia eagene dunu! Dilia gobele salasu dunu, Lifai dunu, gesami hea: su dunu, sosodo aligisu dunu amola debolo hawa: hamosu dunu huluane ilima eagene su (da: gisi) maedafa lama.
25 But as for you, Ezra, in accord with the wisdom of your God, which is in your hand, appoint judges and magistrates, so that they may judge the entire people, which is beyond the river, especially so that they may know the law of your God, but also so as to teach the ignorant freely.
Di, Esela! Gode da dima bagade dawa: su ia dagoiba: le, di ouligisu dunu amola fofada: su dunu ilegema. Ilia da dunu huluane Guma: dini Iufala: idisi soge ganodini Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i amoma fa: no bobogesa, amo ouligima: ne sia: ma. Amola nowa da Gode Ea sema hame dawa: sa, ilima amo sema olelema.
26 And anyone who will not diligently keep the law of your God, and the law of the king, judgment shall be upon him, either to death, or to exile, or to the confiscation of his goods, or certainly to prison.”
Nowa dunu da Gode Ea sema o Besia eagene sema amo hame nabasea, amo dunuma hedolowane se dabe ima. Ema agoane se dabe ima. Medole legema o mugululi masa: ne, sefasima o ea liligi huluane lama o se iasu diasu amo ganodini salima.” Adadegesisi da amo meloa dedene, Eselama i.
27 Blessed be the Lord, the God of our fathers, who has put this into the heart of the king, so that he may glorify the house of the Lord, which is in Jerusalem.
Esela e amane sia: i, “Ninia aowalali ilia Hina Godema nodoma! Gode da Besia hina bagade ea dogo ganodini olelebeba: le, e da Hina Gode Ea Debolo diasu Yelusaleme amo ganodini amo nodone fidisu.
28 For he has turned his mercy toward me in the sight of the king, and his counselors, and all the powerful leaders of the king. And so, having been strengthened by the hand of the Lord, my God, which was upon me, I gathered together some of the leaders of Israel, those who were to go up with me.
Gode da nama asigidafa hou hamobeba: le, Besia hina bagade, ea gasolo dunu amola ea gasa bagade ouligisu dunu huluane da nama hahawane gala. Na Hina Gode da na dogo denesiba: le, Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu bagohame da na sia: beba: le mugululi asi fisili, na sigi bu Isala: ili sogega buhagisa.
