Ezra 5

1 The prophets Haggai and Zechariah, son of Iddo, gave messages to the Jews in Judah and Jerusalem from the God of Israel, their ruler.

Hagi ana knafina kasnampa netre Hagai'ene Ido nemofo Zekaraiakea Israeli vahe Anumzamofo agifi kasnampa kea Jerusalemi vahete'ene Juda vahetera huama huke zamasami'na'e.

2 Then Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua, son of Jozadak, decided to start work on rebuilding God's Temple in Jerusalem. The prophets of God encouraged them and helped them.

Hagi ana ke'ma hutake'za, Sealtieli nemofo Zerubabeli'ene Jozadaki nemofo Jeshuakea otike Jerusalemi kumate'ma Anumzamofo mono noma eme atre'naza eri'zana ete eri agafa huke enerike'za, Anumzamofo kasnampa vahe'mo'zanena zanaza hake'za ana eri'zana eri'naze.

3 Almost immediately Tattenai, the governor of the province west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and their fellow officials arrived and asked, “Who gave you permission to rebuild this Temple and finish it?”

Hanki anama nehazage'za, Yufretisi rantimofo kantu kazigama me'nea kuma'ma kegavama hu'nea gavana ne' Tetanai'ene, eri'za ne'a Setar Bozenai'ene zanagranema eriza'ma eneriza vahe'mo'zanena Israeli vahete Jerusalemi vu'za amanage hu'naze, iza huramantegetma ama mono nona eri ante fatgo hutama negize?

4 Then they asked, “What are the names of the men who are working on this building?”

Anage nehu'za mago'ene amanage hu'za zamantahige'naze, Iza'za ama mono noma ki eri'zana enerizafi zamagi'a tasamiho?

5 But their God was watching over the Jewish leaders, so that they were not prevented from working until a report could be sent to Darius and a written reply with instructions was received.

Hianagi zamagri Anumzamo'a avunteno Juda ranra vahera kegava huzmante'ne. Ana hige'za Pesiati'ma e'nea kva ne'ene eri'za vahe'amo'za, Juda nagara eri'za zamia asevazi ozmantage'za eri'za nevu'za, Tatenai'ma avoma kremisigenoma kini ne' Dariusi'ma, ana avonte'ma kenonama hanigu avega ante'naze.

6 The following is a copy of the letter that Tattenai, the governor of the province west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and their fellow officials, officials of the province, sent to King Darius.

Hanki Yufretisi ran timofo kantu kazigama me'nea kumama kegavama hu'nea gavana ne' Tatenai'ene eri'za ne'a Setar Bozenai'ene zanagranema eri'zama magokama eneriza, kini ne' Dariusina amanage hu'za avona kre'za atrente'naze.

7 The report they sent him read went like this: “To King Darius: Greetings.

Ana avoma kremi'naza avomo'a amanahu hu'ne. Kini ne' Dariusiga musenke atregantonanki krimpa fru'ne manigahane.

8 We wish to inform Your Majesty that we went to the province of Judah, to the Temple of the great God. It is being built with large stones, with timber beams being placed on the walls. This work is being done properly and is progressing well.

Kini ne'mokama menima kasamisunana, tagra Juda mopare vuta ome konana, Ra Anumzamofo mono nona negizageta ke'none. Ana mono nona tusinasi have taga hu'za negi'za, noma vazisgama hania zana zafareti kitagi'za asoparega nona azeri oti'naze. Mika vahe'mo'za kva hu'ne'za ana eri'zana hankaveti'za enerizageno, eri'zamo'a ame huno nevie.

9 We questioned the leaders, asking them, ‘Who gave you permission to rebuild this Temple and finish it?’

Anante amanage huta ranra vahera zamantahige'none. Iza hu' izoa huramantegetma ama mono nona ete erinte fatgo huta negize?

10 We also asked for their names, so that we could write them down and let you know the names of their leaders.

Ana nehuta avompima zamagima kreta kagri'ma kasamisnunkura, vugotama hu'nage'zama eri'zama eneriza vahe zamagigu zamantahige'none.

11 This is the answer they gave us. ‘We are servants of the God of heaven and earth. We are rebuilding the Temple built and completed many years ago by a great king of Israel.

Anagema nehunke'za amanage hu'za tasami'naze, Anumzana monane mopanema tro'ma huno'ma kegavama hu'nea Anumzamofo eri'za vahe tagra mani'nonankita, korapara Israeli vahe'mota hankavenentake kini ne'mo, ama mono nona ki'nea no, ha' vahetimo'za eme eri haviza hu'naza no, ete azeri otita negune,

12 But our forefathers made the God of heaven angry, so he handed them over to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, the Chaldean, who destroyed this Temple and deported the people to Babylon.

na'ankure Monafima mani'nea Anumzamofona tagehe'za rimpahe avu'avaza hazageno, Kaldiati ne' Babiloni kini ne' Nebukatnesana atregeno eno Anumzamofo mono nona eme eri haviza nehuno, ana maka vahera zamavareno Babiloni vuno kina ome huzmante'ne.

13 However, Cyrus, king of Babylon, in the first year of his reign, issued a decree to rebuild this Temple of God.

Hianagi Babiloni kini ne' Sairusi'ma agafa huno kinima mania kafufina, kini ne' Sairusi'a mago huvempage huno, Ra Anumzamofo mono nona ete kiho huno hu'ne.

14 He even gave back the gold and silver items belonging to God's Temple, which Nebuchadnezzar had taken from the Temple in Jerusalem and placed in his temple in Babylon. King Cyrus gave them to a man named Sheshbazzar, whom he had appointed governor,

Anage nehuno ko'ma Nebukatnesa'ma Jerusalemi kumateti'ma Anumzamofo mono nompinti golireti'ene silvareti'ma tro'ma hu'naza zantamima me'neana erino Babiloni vuno, havi anumza'amofo mono nompima ome ante'nea zantamina, kini ne' Sairusi'a erino, Sesbasari'e nehaza ne' Juda mopare gavana mani'nogu kini ne' Sairusi'a agrama huhamparinte'nea ne' ana zantamina nemino,

15 telling him, Take these items and place them in the Temple in Jerusalem. Rebuild God's Temple on its original site.

amanage huno asami'ne, vunka Jerusalemi ra mono nompi amana zantamina ome nentenka, Anumzamofo mono noma ko'ma me'nere ete anante azeri otinka kio huno hunte'ne.

16 So Sheshbazzar came and laid the foundation of God's Temple in Jerusalem. It has been under construction since then, but hasn't yet been completed.’

Ana hu'negu Sesbasari'a Jerusalemi eno ama Anumzamofo mono noma ki tra'a ki'ne. Hianagi ana knareti'ma eno ama knare'ma egeta, ana nona ki vava hu'nonanagi, ki vagaore'none huza tasami'naze.

17 So, if Your Majesty wishes, authorize a search to be made of the royal archives in Babylon to discover if there is a record that King Cyrus issued a decree to rebuild God's Temple in Jerusalem. Then please let us know Your Majesty's decision in this matter.”

Juda vahe'mo'za e'inahu ke hazagu, Babiloni vahe'mo'zama fenozama nentaza nompima me'nenigura, kini ne'moka eri'za vaheka'a huzmante'snanke'za, ko'ma tro'ma hu'naza zantamimofo agenkema krente'naza avontafera hake'za, kini ne' Sairusi'ma Ra Anumzamofo mono noma Jerusalema ete kihoma huno huzmante'nesia kegura, Juda vahe'mo'za tamage hazafi hake'za eri fore hiho. Anama hutesanagenka, ana zankura na'ane huta huzmantegahumpi, kini ne'moka tasamio.
