< Ezra 3 >

1 And now the seventh month was come, and the children of Israel were in their cities: and the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem.
Kane dwe mar abiriyo ochopo kendo jo-Israel nosechako dak e miechgi, negichokore kaka joka ngʼato achiel e Jerusalem.
2 And Josue the son of Josedec rose up, and his brethren the priests, and Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, and his brethren, and they built the altar of the God of Israel that they might offer holocausts upon it, as it is written in the law of Moses the mall of God.
Eka Jeshua wuod Jozadak kod jodolo wetene kod Zerubabel wuod Shealtiel gi jogo mane tiyo kode nochako gero kendo mar misango mar Nyasach Israel mondo time chiwo mar misango miwangʼo pep, kaluwore gi gima ondiki e Chike Musa, ngʼat Nyasaye.
3 And they set the altar of God upon its bases, while the people of the lands round about put them in fear, and they offered upon it a holocaust to the Lord morning and evening.
Kata obedo nine giluoro joma ne olworogi kamano, negigero kendo mar misango e mise mare mi gichiwo misango miwangʼo pep ne Jehova Nyasaye, misango mokinyi kaachiel gi modhiambo.
4 And they kept the feast of tabernacles, as it is written, and offered the holocaust every day orderly according to the commandment, the duty of the day in its day.
Bangʼe kaluwore gi gima ondiki, negitimo nyasi mar Sawo mar kiche ka gin gi kwan mar misengini miwangʼo pep mowinjore mar odiechiengʼ ka odiechiengʼ.
5 And afterwards the continual holocaust, both on the new moons, and on all the solemnities of the Lord, that were consecrated, and on all in which a free-will offering was made to the Lord.
Bangʼ mano, negichiwo misango miwangʼo pep mapile pile, misango mar Dwe Manyien kod sewni moyier mag Jehova Nyasaye, kaachiel gi mago mokel kaka chiwo mar hera ne Jehova Nyasaye.
6 From the first day of the seventh month they began to offer holocausts to the Lord: but the temple of God was not yet founded.
E odiechiengʼ mokwongo mar dwe mar abiriyo, negichako kelo chiwo mar misengini miwangʼo pep ne Jehova Nyasaye, kata obedo ni mise mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye ne pok ochaki.
7 And they gave money to hewers of stones and to masons: and meat and drink, and oil to the Sidonians and Tyrians, to bring cedar trees from Libanus to the sea of Joppe, according to the orders which Cyrus king of the Persians had given them.
Eka negichiwo pesa ne jogedo kod funde bao, kendo gichiwo chiemo gi math gi mo ne jo-Sidon gi jo-Turo, mondo omi gikel sirni mag sida koluwo nam koa Lebanon nyaka Jopa, kaluwore gi thuolo mane ochiw gi Sairas ruodh Pasia.
8 And in the second year of their coming to the temple of God in Jerusalem, the second month, Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, and Josue the son of Josedec, and the rest of their brethren the priests, and the Levites, and all that were come from the captivity to Jerusalem began, and they appointed Levites from twenty years old and upward, to hasten forward the work of the Lord.
E dwe mar ariyo mar higa mar ariyo bangʼ kane gichopo e od Nyasaye e Jerusalem, Zerubabel wuod Shealtiel, Jeshua wuod Jozadak kod owetege mamoko (jodolo gi jo-Lawi kod jogo duto mane odwogo Jerusalem koa e twech) nochako tich, ka giyiero jo-Lawi moromo higni piero ariyo kod jomadongo mondo ginon gedo mar od Jehova Nyasaye.
9 Then Josue and his sons and his brethren, Cedmihel, and his sons, and the children of Juda, as one man, stood to hasten them that did the work in the temple of God: the sons of Henadad, and their sons, and their brethren the Levites.
Jeshua gi yawuote kod owetene gi Kadmiel kod yawuote (ma nyikwa Hodavia) kod yawuot Henadad gi yawuote kod owetene, ma gin jo-Lawi duto, noriwore kanyakla ka gingʼiyo jogo matiyo e od Nyasaye.
10 And when the masons laid the foundations of the temple of the Lord, the priests stood in their ornaments with trumpets: and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise God by the hands of David king of Israel.
Ka jogedo noketo mise mar hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, jodolo korwako lepgi mag dolo ka gin gi turumbete, kod jo-Lawi (ma yawuot Asaf) ka gin-gi ongengʼo, nokawo keregi mondo gipak Jehova Nyasaye, kaka nochan gi Daudi ruodh Israel.
11 And they sung together hymns, and praise to the Lord: because he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever towards Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout, praising the Lord, because the foundations of the temple of the Lord were laid.
Ka gipako Jehova Nyasaye kendo gigoyone erokamano ne giwerne kama: “Jehova Nyasaye ber; kendo hera mare ne jo-Israel osiko nyaka chiengʼ.” To ji duto nogoyo koko matek mar Pak ne Jehova Nyasaye, nikech mise mar od Jehova Nyasaye noketi.
12 But many of the priests and the Levites, and the chief of the fathers and the ancients that had seen the former temple; when they had the foundation of this temple before their eyes, wept with a loud voice: and many shouting for joy, lifted up their voice.
To jodolo machon kod jo-Lawi gi jotend anywola, mane oseneno hekalu mokwongo, noywak matek ka gineno kiketo mise mar hekalu, to ji mamoko nokok gi ilo.
13 So that one could not distinguish the voice of the shout of joy, from the noise of the weeping of the people: for one with another the people shouted with a loud shout, and the voice was heard afar off.
Onge ngʼama ne nyalo pogo dwol mar goyo koko mar ilo gi dwol mar ywak, nikech ji nogoyo koko matek, kendo dwolno nowinj gi kuma bor.
