Ezra 6
1 Then king Darius gave orders, and search was made in the house of the rolls, where the treasures were laid up in Babylon.
Hijeh chun Darius lengpan jong thu apen, Babylon gamsunga lengte thusim kisutlutna a chun akholsah tan ahi.
2 And there was found at Achmetha in the fortress that is in the province of Media a roll, and therein was a record thus written:
Hiti chun ahin khol’un ahileh Media gamkol sunga Ecbatana khopia chun lekhajol khat hi amudoh taovin, hichea chun hitihin akijih in ahi:
3 In the first year of king Cyrus, king Cyrus made a decree [concerning] the house of God at Jerusalem: Let the house be built for a place where they offer sacrifices, and let its foundations be solidly laid; its height sixty cubits, its breadth sixty cubits,
“Cyrus lengpa vaihom kumkhat channa in lengpan thu anapen Jerusalem’a houin chu kilhaina gantha kibol naleh pumgo thilto kitonaji houin chu kithah sahkit hen, a-in sandol chu tong somgup hihenlang availam jong tong somgup ma hihen.
4 [with] three rows of great stones, and a row of new timber; and let the expenses be given out of the king's house:
Songtum lentah tah gol thum'in kigol henlantg chuleh thingtum jong golkhat in kigol hen, huting leh hiche songho hileh in-thil ho hijongleh, hiche nakitohna a lut ho jouse chu lengte sumkhol na a kona kimang chading ahi.
5 and also let the golden and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple that is at Jerusalem and brought to Babylon, be restored and brought again to the temple that is at Jerusalem, in their place; and thou shalt put [them] in the house of God.
Chuleh Jerusalem khopia Pathen houin muntheng phunga konna sana le dangka khonle lheng Nebuchadnezzer in anapoh manga Babylona anakoi hochu nungpoh lut cheh kitding ana kikoina mun mama a chu koikit ding ahi. Hicheho jouse chu Pathen houin ah kinung pohlut kitding ahi.” Akitin ahi.
6 Therefore Tatnai, governor beyond the river, Shethar-boznai, and your companions the Apharsachites, who are beyond the river, be ye far from thence:
Hijeh chun Darius lengpan hiti hin thu ale thot tan ahi: “Tun hitiding ahi, Euphtates vadung lhumlam gamkaija gamvaipo Tattenai leh Shethar-Bozenai, chuleh Euphrates vadung lhumlam gamkaiya vaipo holah natoh khompi, nangho kikang seuvin!
7 let the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God in its place.
Pathen in asah naova chun suboi hih beh un. Hiche houin chu ana kisah patna mun mama a chu asahphat kitdiu ahi. Judah gam vaipopa ahin natoh vaihom Judah upa ho ahin sutang hih beh un.
8 Moreover, I give orders what ye shall do to these elders of the Jews, for the building of this house of God: that of the king's goods, of the tribute beyond the river, expenses be diligently given to these men, that they be not hindered.
Hiche chungchon chun hiche pathen houin asah naova hin Judah upahohi kithopiuvin tia hiche thupeh hi kahin peh nahiuve. Euphrates vadung lhumlam gamkaisea kidongoh kai hochu hiche ain sahnao manna chu geisang louva napehdoh jengdiu hiche anatoh uhi nasuhboi lou heldiu ahi.
9 And that which they have need of, both young bullocks and rams and lambs, for the burnt-offerings to the God of the heavens, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the appointment of the priests that are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail;
Jerusalem’a thempu hon van pathenna akatdoh diuva bongchal nou hihen, kelchal hihen kelngoi chal hijongleh angaichat dungjui uva napeh jengdiu ahi. Chuleh niseh leh amahon angaichat dung jui uva suhlou chang hihen, chule lengpitwi hijongleh olive thao hijongleh angaichat channu chu napeh jengdiu ahi.
10 that they may present sweet odours to the God of the heavens, and pray for the life of the king and of his sons.
Hiteng chuleh amahon van pathen in asan theidol kilhaina chu tohdoh untin chuleh lengpale achate damthei nale phattheina dinga ahin taopeh diu ahi.
11 Also I have given order that whosoever shall alter this rescript, let timber be pulled down from his house, and being set up, let him be hanged thereon, and let his house be made a dunghill for this.
Hiche kadan thupeh hi asuhkeh a aumleh ainsunga konin alhungpi kibotdoh intin, chutengleh hichea chun ama kikanbeh intin kivoding chuleh ainchu vutvai kisoding ahi.
12 And the God that has caused his name to dwell there overthrow every king and people that shall put forth their hand to alter [or] to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Darius have given [this] order; let it be done diligently.
Hiche Jerusalem khopihi ama min loupina dinga hinlhangdoh Pathen chun hiche thupeh hi palkeh a chuleh hiche Houin hi susea aumleh hitobang leng ahilouleh hitobang nam-mi chu kisumang ding ahi. Darius keiman hiche daan hi kasem doh ahin hiche hi mijousen phatah in juisoh keihen,” tin thu ale thotkit tan ahi.
13 Then Tatnai, governor on this side the river, Shethar-boznai, and their companions, because of that which king Darius had sent, did so diligently.
Euphrates vadung lhumlam gamkaija gamvaipopa leh Shethar-bozenai leh atoh khompi hon gangtah in Darius lengpa thupeh chu ajuipai jengun ahi.
14 And the elders of the Jews built; and they prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they built and completed [it] according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the commandment of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.
Judah upa ho chun atoh uchu ajom jengjun themgao teni Haggai leh Iddo chapa Zechariah thuhil’a konin akiha tilkhou lheh jengin ahi. Houin chu Israel Pathen in athupeh dungjui leh Persia lengho Cyrus, Darius, Artaxerxes in daan anasem dung juiyin asachai taovin ahi.
15 And this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of king Darius.
Pathen houin chu Darius lengpa vaihom kum gup channa in Adhar lha nihtum lhinni in achai taovin ahi.
16 And the children of Israel, the priests and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy;
Pathen houin chu Israel mipite, Thempute, Levite chuleh asoh channaova konna hung kile hotoh kipa thanopna sangtah pummin alopna asem uvin ahi.
17 and they presented at the dedication of this house of God a hundred bullocks, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs, and for a sin-offering for all Israel, twelve he-goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
Hiche Pathen houin katdohna a hin bongchal jakhat, kelngoichal jani chuleh kelngoi ail akithat in ahi. Chuleh Israel pumpi phung somleni chonsetna thoidamna dingin kelchal somleni anatoh doh un ahi.
18 And they set the priests in their classes, and the Levites in their divisions, for the service of God, which is at Jerusalem: as it is written in the book of Moses.
Hiche jouchun thempu hole Leviho chu jatchom chom’in ahom khen’un Mose lekhabua kijih bangin Jerusalem’a Pathen Houin’ah Pakai kin abollun ahi.
19 And the children of the captivity held the passover upon the fourteenth of the first month.
Akhovei lha masapen nisom le nili nin sohchang hung kile hon kalchuh kut amangun ahi.
20 For the priests and the Levites had purified themselves as one [man]: they were all pure; and they killed the passover for all the children of the captivity, and for their brethren the priests, and for themselves.
Hichun thempuho le Levite chu amahole amaho akithenso cheh taovin athengin aum tauvin ahi. Hichun amahon sohchang hungkile ho dingleh athempu chanpi hoding chule amaho a dingin kalchuh kut manna dingin kelngoi athatnun ahi.
21 And the children of Israel that were come back out of captivity, and all such as had separated themselves to them from the filthiness of the nations of the land, to seek Jehovah the God of Israel, did eat;
Hiche kalchuh kut chu sohchang hung kile kit Israel chate jousen ane uvin, chutengleh thilboh chengsea konna kikangsea Pakai kin bolna a hung kipelut honjong aneovin ahi.
22 and they kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy; for Jehovah had made them joyful, and turned the heart of the king of Assyria to them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel.
Hiti chun Israel ten ni sagi sungin cholsolou changlhah kut kipah thanom tahin amangun ahi. Gamsung pumpia chun kipana le thanopna adimlha jengin ahi. Ajeh chu Pakaiyin Assyria lengpa chu amaho khotona aneisah a hijeh achu Israel te Pathen houin sahphatna dinga jong hin Lengpan ana kithopin ahi.
