Ezra 6
1 Thus King Darius ordered that a search be made of the archives that were housed in the treasury of Babylon.
Aa le namantoke t’i Dariavese vaho nihotsohotsoeñe i anjombam-pañajan-taratasiy, am-panontonam-bara e Bavele ao.
2 But it was actually in the fortress of Ecbatana, in the province of Media, that a scroll was found, recording the following:
Le nitendrek’ amy anjomba e Akmetà ao, amy faritane’ o nte-Madaioy ty boke-peleke, le sinokitse ama’e ao ty hoe: Ty talily:
3 In the first year of King Cyrus, he issued a decree regarding God's Temple in Jerusalem: Let the Temple be rebuilt as a place where sacrifices are offered, and make sure it has strong foundations are firm. Make it sixty cubits high and sixty cubits wide,
Amy taom-baloha’ i Korese, mpanjakay, le nanao tsey t’i Korese mpanjaka: I anjomban’ Añahare e Ierosalaimey, te hamboareñe i anjombay, i fañengà’ iareo soroñey naho añoreñañe fatratse o mananta’eo; ty haabo’e, kiho enempolo naho ty ampohe’e, kiho enempolo;
4 with three layers of stone blocks and one of timber. Expenses are to be paid from the royal treasury.
naho firiritam-bato jabajaba, telo naho fidadañam-bodan-katae vao, le ho tolorañe boak’ añ’ anjomba’ i mpanjakay ty drala’e;
5 In addition, the gold and silver items of God's Temple, which Nebuchadnezzar took from the Temple in Jerusalem and brought to Babylon, must also be returned to the Temple in Jerusalem and placed there.
le ampolieñe ka o fanake volamena naho volafotin’ anjomban’ Añahare nakare’ i Nebokadnetsare boak’ añ’ anjomba’e e Ierosalaime ao naho nendese’e mb’e Bavele mb’eoo; hahereñe, songa an-toe’e añ’ anjomba e Ierosalaime vaho hapok’ amy anjomban’ Añaharey.
6 These are my instructions to you, Tattenai, governor of the province west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and your fellow officials, and officials of the province: Stay far away from there!
Ie amy zao, ry Tatenay mpifelek’ alafe’ i Sakay naho i Setar-botsenay naho o mpiama’ areo nte Afaresake alafe’ i Sakaio, ihalaviro;
7 This work on God's Temple—leave it alone! Let the governor and leaders of the Jews continue with rebuilding this Temple of God on its original site.
apoho hanoeñe i fitoloñañe amy anjomban’ Añahareiy; le angao handranjy i anjomban’ Añaharey an-toe’e eo ty mpifehe o nte-Iehodao naho o mpiaolo’ Iehodao.
8 Furthermore, this is my decree as to what you are to do for these Jewish leaders regarding the rebuilding of this Temple of God. The full expense involved is to be paid from royal income, the tribute of the province west of the Euphrates, so that the work will not be delayed.
Mbore tseizeko ty hanoa’ areo amo mpiaolo’ o nte-Iehoda mpamboatse i anjomban’ Añahareioo; te hatolotse am-pahimbañañe boak’ amo varam-panjaka amy haba alafe’ i Sakaio am’ indaty rey ze drala paiae’e, vaho tsy ho sebañeñe.
9 Provide whatever is needed by the priests in Jerusalem: young bulls, rams, and lambs for burnt offerings to the God of heaven, and wheat, salt, wine, and olive oil. Make sure to give them this each day without fail.
Le ze paia’ iareo, amo baniao naho o añondrilahio naho o vik’ añondrio, hisoroñañe amy Andrianañaharen-dikerañey; vare-bolè, sira, divay naho menake. Le ze saontsi’ o mpisoroñe e Ierosalaimeo ty amahana’o aze boak’ andro boak’ andro vaho tsy hilesa;
10 In this way they can offer sacrifices that are acceptable to the God of heaven, and pray for the lives of the king and his sons.
hañengàñe soroñe marifondrifoñe amy Andrianañaharen-dindiñey naho ihalaliañe ty havelo’ i mpanjakay naho o anadahi’eo.
11 Further I declare that if any man interferes with this decree, a beam is to be ripped from his house and set in the ground, and he is to be impaled on top of it. His own house shall be turned into a pile of rubble for disobeying this decree.
Tovoñako ty hoe te ze mañova o entañe zao ro hañakarañe boda amy anjomba’ey, le honjoñen-dre hapitek’ ama’e; vaho hanoeñe votrim-porompotse i traño’ey;
12 May God who chose the city of Jerusalem as the place where he would be honored, destroy any king or people who try to alter what I have said or who destroy this Temple. I, Darius, issue this decree. Let it be faithfully carried out.
vaho ehe te harotsan’ Añahare nampimoneñe ty tahina’e ao ze mpanjaka ndra ondaty te hañity fitàñe hañova izay, hampianto i anjomban’ Añahare e Ierosalaimey. Izaho Dariavese ty mitsey: ee t’ie ho henefañe masìka.
13 Tattenai, the governor of the province west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and their fellow officials faithfully carried out what King Darius had decreed.
Aa le nihavatse nitoloñe t’i Tatenay, mpifelek’ alafe’ i Sakay naho i Setar-botsenay naho o mpiama’eo ty amy nampihitrife’ i Dariavese mpanjakay.
14 As a result the Jewish leaders continued building, and they were encouraged by the messages from Haggai the prophet and Zechariah, son of Iddo. They completed building the Temple following the command of the God of Israel, and the decrees of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes, kings of Persia.
Le nandranjy naho niraorao o mpiaolo-nte-Iehodao ty amy fitokia’ i Kagaý mpitoky naho i Zekarià ana’ Idòy. Ie namboatse iereo ro nahafonitse i nandilian’ Añahare’ Israeley naho nitseize’ i Korese naho i Dariavese naho i Artaksastà mpanjaka’ i Parase rey.
15 The Temple was completed on the third day of the month of Adar, in the sixth year of the reign of King Darius.
Le nifonitse amy andro fahatelo’ i volan-Kiahiaiy i anjombay, an-taom-paha-ene’ i Dariavese, mpanjakay.
16 Then the people of Israel, the priests, the Levites, and the rest of those who had returned from exile, all joyfully celebrated the dedication of the God's Temple.
Le nitana’ o ana’ Israeleo naho o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio vaho ty ila’ o anam-pandrohizañeo am-pirebehañe ty fañorizañe i anjomban’ Añaharey,
17 To dedicate God's Temple they sacrificed one hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs, and a sin offering for the whole of Israel comprising twelve male goats, one for each Israelite tribe.
ie nañenga añombelahy zato naho añondri-lahy roanjato naho vik’ añondry efa-jato amy fañorizañe i anjomban’ Añahareiy; le oselahy folo-ro’ amby ho engan-kakeo’ Israele iaby, ty ami’ty ia’ i fifokoa’ Israele rey.
18 They organized the priests and Levites by their divisions to serve God in the Temple at Jerusalem, in accordance with the Book of Moses.
Le nalahatse am-pirimboñañe o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio, songa am-piosoña’e hitoroñe an’ Andrianañahare e Ierosalaime ao; ty amy sinokitse amy boke’ i Moseiy.
19 The exiles who had returned observed the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
Le nitana’ o anam-pandrohizañeo amy andro faha-folo-efats’ ambi’ i volam-baloha’eiy i Fihelañ’ Amboney.
20 The priests and Levites had all purified themselves so that they were clean according to the ceremonial law. So they killed the Passover lamb for all the exiles who had returned, for their fellow priests, and for themselves.
Le nitrao-pañeferañe o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio; songa nalio; le linenta’ iareo i fihelañ’ amboney ho amo anam-pandrohizañe iabio naho o mpisoroñe roahalahi’ iareoo naho o vata’ iareoo.
21 The Passover was eaten by the people of Israel who had returned from exile, and by those who had joined them and had rejected the pagan practices of the peoples of the land in order to worship the Lord, the God of Israel.
Le songa nikama o ana’ Israele nimpoly boak’ am-pandrohizañeo naho o nivìke ho am’ iereo boak’ ami’ty haleora’ o kilakila’ ondati’ i taneio, hipay Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele,
22 Then they observed the Festival of Unleavened Bread for seven days. Everyone throughout the land was so happy because the Lord had made the king of Assyria favorable to them, helping them to rebuild the Temple of God, the God of Israel.
naho nitana’ iareo an-kaehake fito andro i sabadida-mofo-tsi-aman-dalivaiy; amy te nampinembanembañ’ iareo t’Iehovà vaho nampitolihe’e am’ iereo ty arofo’ i mpanjaka’ i Asorey; nampaozatse ty fità’ iareo amy fitoloñañe añ’ anjomban’ Añahare, Andrianañahare’ Israeley.
