Ezra 5
1 Now the prophets, Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo, prophesied to the Jews that were in Judah and Jerusalem; in the name of the God of Israel [did they prophesy] to them.
Sai annabi Haggai, da annabi Zakariya zuriyar Iddo, suka yi wa Yahudawa a Yahuda da Urushalima annabci a cikin sunan Allah na Isra’ila wanda yake da mulki a kansu.
2 Then rose up Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and began to build the house of God which is at Jerusalem; and with them were the prophets of God, who helped them.
Sa’an nan Zerubbabel ɗan Sheyaltiyel da Yeshuwa ɗan Yozadak suka yi shiri suka kama aikin sāke gina gidan Allah a Urushalima. Annabawan Allah kuwa suna tare da su, suna taimakonsu.
3 At that time came to them Tatnai, governor on this side the river, and Shethar-boznai, and their companions, and said thus to them: Who gave you orders to build this house and to complete this wall?
A wannan lokaci, Tattenai gwamnan Kewayen Kogin Yuferites, da Shetar-Bozenai da abokansu suka je wurinsu suka tambaye su cewa, “Wa ya ba ku iko ku sāke gina wannan haikali har ku gyara katangar?”
4 And they said to them after this manner: What are the names of the men that build this building?
Suka kuma tambaye su “Ina sunayen waɗanda suke wannan gini?”
5 But the eye of their God was upon the elders of the Jews, and they did not make them cease till the matter came to Darius; and then they returned answer by letter concerning it.
Amma Allah yana tsaron dattawan Yahudawa, saboda haka ba a hana su aikin ba har sai rahoto ya kai wurin Dariyus aka kuma sami amsarsa a rubuce tukuna.
6 The copy of the letter that Tatnai, governor on this side the river, and Shethar-boznai, and his companions the Apharsachites, who were on this side the river, sent to Darius the king.
Ga wasiƙar da Tattenai, gwamnan Kewayen Kogin Yuferites, da Shetar-Bozenai da abokansu masu riƙe da muƙamai a Kewayen Kogin Yuferites suka aika wa Sarki Dariyus.
7 They sent a report to him in which was written thus: To Darius the king, all peace!
Ga rahoton da suka aika masa. Zuwa ga Sarki Dariyus. Gaisuwa da fatan alheri.
8 Be it known to the king that we went into the province of Judah, to the house of the great God, which is being built with great stones, and timber is laid in the walls, and this work is being carried on with diligence, and prospers in their hand.
Ya kamata sarki yă sani cewa mun je yankin Yahuda, zuwa gidan Allah mai girma. Muka ga mutanen suna ginin haikalin da manyan duwatsu, suna sa katakai a bangon. Ana aikin da ƙwazo, aikin kuma yana cin gaba sosai, suna kuma lura da shi.
9 Then asked we those elders: thus we said to them, Who gave you orders to build this house and to complete this wall?
Mun tambayi dattawan muka ce musu, “Wa ya ba ku iko ku sāke gina wannan haikali, ku kuma sāke gyara katangarsa?”
10 We asked their names also, to inform thee, that we might write the names of the men that were the chief of them.
Muka kuma tambaye su sunayensu don mu rubuta mu sanar da kai waɗanda suke shugabanninsu.
11 And thus they returned us answer, saying, We are the servants of the God of the heavens and the earth, and build the house that was built these many years ago; and a great king of Israel built and completed it.
Wannan ita ce amsar da suka ba mu. “Mu bayin Allah na sama da ƙasa ne, muna sāke gina haikalin da aka gina tun shekaru da yawa da suka wuce, da wani babban sarkin Isra’ila ya gina ya kuma gama.
12 But after that our fathers had provoked the God of the heavens to wrath, he gave them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, the Chaldean, and he destroyed this house, and carried the people away unto Babylon.
Amma domin kakanninmu sun ɓata wa Allah na sama rai, sai ya bari suka fāɗa cikin hannun Nebukadnezzar mutumin Kaldiya, sarkin Babilon, wanda ya rushe wannan haikali, ya kuma kwashe mutane zuwa Babilon.
13 But in the first year of Cyrus king of Babylon, king Cyrus gave orders to build this house of God.
“Duk da haka, a shekara ta farko ta mulkin Sairus sarkin Babilon, Sarki Sairus ya ba da umarni cewa a sāke gina wannan gidan Allah.
14 And the vessels also of gold and silver of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple that was at Jerusalem and brought into the temple of Babylon, those did king Cyrus take out of the temple of Babylon, and they were delivered to one Sheshbazzar by name, whom he had appointed governor.
Ya kuma kwashe kwanonin zinariya da azurfa na gidan Allah daga haikalin Babilon waɗanda Nebukadnezzar ya kwasa daga haikali a Urushalima. Sa’an nan sarki Sairus ya ba wa wani mutum mai suna Sheshbazzar umarni wanda ya sa ya zama gwamna,
15 And he said to him, Take these vessels, go, carry them into the temple that is at Jerusalem, and let the house of God be built in its place.
ya ce masa, ‘Ka kwashe kayan nan ka je ka zuba su a cikin haikalin Allah a Urushalima. Ka kuma sāke gina gidan Allah a wurin da yake a dā.’
16 Then came the same Sheshbazzar, [and] laid the foundation of the house of God which is at Jerusalem; and since that time even until now has it been in building, and it is not completed.
“Saboda haka Sheshbazzar ya so ya aza harsashin gina gidan Allah a Urushalima. Tun daga wancan lokaci har zuwa yau ana kan gina shi amma ba a gama ba.”
17 And now, if it seem good to the king, let search be made in the king's treasure-house, which is there at Babylon, whether it be so, that orders were given by king Cyrus to build this house of God at Jerusalem; and let the king send his pleasure to us concerning this matter.
Yanzu in sarki yana so, bari a duba cikin littattafan tarihi na sarakuna na Babilon a gani ko lalle sarki Sairus ya ba da umarni a sāke gina gidan Allah a Urushalima. Bari sarki yă aiko mana da abin da ya gani game da wannan abu.
