< Ezra 7 >
1 After all this, during the reign of Artaxerxes king of Persia, Ezra arrived from Babylon. He was the son of Seraiah, son of Azariah, son of Hilkiah,
Ode bagohame gidigili, Adasegesisi da Besia hina bagade esalea, dunu afadafa ea dio amo Esela da esalu. Ea aowalali aowa da musa: gobele salasu hina ea dio amo Elane. Esela ea aowa fi da agoane esalusu.
2 son of Shallum, son of Zadok, son of Ahitub,
Elane amoea mano da Elia: isa, amoea mano da Finia: se amoea mano da Abisiua amalu Bugai, Usai, Selahaia, Mila: iode, A:salaia, A:malaia, Ahaidabe, Sa: idoge, Sia: lame, Hiligaia, A:salaia, Sila: iya amalu Esela.
3 son of Amariah, son of Azariah, son of Meraioth,
4 son of Zerahiah, son of Uzzi, son of Bukki,
5 son of Abishua, son of Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the high priest.
6 This Ezra arrived from Babylon, and was a scribe who was an expert in the Law of Moses, which the Lord, the God of Israel, had given to Israel. The king had granted Ezra everything he'd asked for, because the Lord his God was with him.
Esela da Isala: ili Hina Gode amo Ea sema Mousesegili dedene i, amo noga: ledafa dawa: i galu. Esela ea Hina Gode da e hahawane dogolegele fidisu. Amaiba: le, Besia hina bagade da ea adole ba: i liligi ema iasu. Ode fesuale amo Adasegesisi da Besia ouligi, Esela da Ba: bilone soge fisili Yelusaleme sogega gobele salasu dunu, Lifai dunu, Debolo diasu gesami hea: su dunu, Debolo sosodo aligisu dunu amola Debolo hawa: hamosu dunu, amo mogili gilisili oule asi.
7 In the seventh year of King Artaxerxes left for Jerusalem, accompanied by some of the people of Israel, and some of the priests and Levites, singers and gatekeepers, and Temple servants.
8 Ezra arrived in Jerusalem in the fifth month of the seventh year of King Artaxerxes' reign.
Ilia da Ba: bilone soge yolesili asi eso magobo amola oubi magobo amoga, Gode Ea fidibiba: le, eso magobo amola oubi biyadu amoga Yelusalemega doaga: i.
9 He had started the journey from Babylon on the first day of the first month, and he arrived in Jerusalem on the first day of the fifth month, his gracious God going with him.
10 For Ezra had committed himself to gaining insights from the Law of the Lord, wanting to practice it and to teach in Israel its rules and how to live.
Esela da eno liligi mae dawa: le, eso huluane Hina Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i huluane idilalu, amola defele hawa: hamosu. Amola Isala: ili dunu ilia noga: le dawa: ma: ne, e da Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i ilima olelesu.
11 This is a copy of the letter King Artaxerxes gave to Ezra the priest and scribe, who had studied the Lord's commandments and regulations given to Israel:
Esela da gobele salasu dunu amola bagade dawa: su dunu. E da sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i amo Hina Gode da Isala: ili dunuma i, amo huluane bagade dawa: i. Adasegesisi da Eselama amo meloa dedene i.
12 “Artaxerxes, king of kings, to Ezra the priest, the scribe of the Law of the God of heaven: Greetings.
“Na da Adasegesisi, Besia hina bagade. Na da di, Esela, gobele salasu dunu amola Hebene Gode Ea sema bagade dawa: su dunu, dima meloa dedene iaha.
13 I hereby issue this decree: Any of the people of Israel or their priests or Levites in my kingdom who voluntarily decide to go to Jerusalem with you may do so.
Na sia: da na soge huluane ganodini, nowa Isala: ili dunu, gobele salasu dunu amola Lifai dunu, nowa da dima sigi masusa: dawa: sea, ilia da masunu da defea.
14 You are being sent by the king and his seven counselors to investigate the situation in Judah and Jerusalem as it relates to the Law of your God, which you carry with you.
Na amola na gasolo dunu fesuale gala da di Yelusaleme amola Yuda soge amoea hou abedema: ne asula ahoa. Di da dia Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i amoma ouligisu dunu. Amaiba: le, amo dunu ilia sema amoma nabasu hou ba: la masa.
15 We also instruct you to take with you the silver and gold that the king and his counselors have voluntarily donated to the God of Israel, whose lives in Jerusalem,
Na amola na gasolo dunu da gouli, silifa amola eno iasu liligi, Isala: ili Gode amo Ea Debolo diasu da Yelusalemega diala amoga legemusa: , dilima imunusa: dawa: lala. Amaiba: le, amo liligi, di lale, gaguli masa.
16 together with all the silver and gold you may receive from the province of Babylon, as well as the voluntary donations of the people and priests to the Temple of their God in Jerusalem.
Di ahoasea, gouli amola silifa dia Ba: bilone sogega lidi amo Godema imunusa: Isala: ili dunu amola gobele salasu dunu amola ilia da ilia Gode Ea Debolo diasu Yelusaleme ganodini amoma i, amo amola gaguli masa.
17 You are to use this money first to buy as many bulls, rams, and lambs as necessary, along with their grain offerings and drink offerings, and present them on the altar at the Temple of your God in Jerusalem.
Amo muniga, dawa: iwane bidi lama. Di bulamagau, sibi gawali, sibi mano, gagoma amola waini, amo Yelusaleme Debolo diasu ganodini oloda da: iya gobele salasu hamoma: ne, bidi lama.
18 Then you and those with you may decide to use the rest of the silver and gold in whatever way you think best, in accordance with the will of your God.
Di da liligi gouli amola silifa hame lai oda mogili dialebe ba: sea, dia fi dunu ilia hanaiga, Gode Ea hanai defele, liligi lamu da defea.
19 But the items you have been given for the service of the Temple of your God must be all delivered to the God of Jerusalem.
Di da ofodo huluane debolo diasu amo ganodini hawa: hamoma: ne dima i, amo Yelusalemega doaga: sea, Godema ima.
20 If there is anything else required for the Temple of your God that you have to provide, you may charge it to the royal treasury.
Amola adi liligi eno dia Debolo diasu amogili lamusa: hanai galea, amo liligi di hina bagade ea muni lelegesu amoga lama.
21 I, King Artaxerxes, decree that all the treasurers west of the Euphrates should provide whatever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the Law of the God of heaven, may require from you, and it must be provided in full,
Amola na da eagene muni ouligisu dunu Guma: dini Iufala: idisi soge amo ganodini ilima amane sia: sa. ‘Esela gobele salasu dunu amola Hebene Esalebe Gode Ea sema bagade dawa: su dunu amo da dilima liligi adole ba: sea, hedolowane ema ima.
22 up to one hundred talents of silver, one hundred cors of wheat, one hundred baths of wine, one hundred baths of olive oil, and unrestricted amounts of salt.
Huluane ima. Be silifa ea dioi defei 3,400 gilogala: me, widi ea dioi defei 10,000 gilogala: me, waini ea defei 2,000 lida amola olife susuligi ea defei 2,000 lida amo defei mae baligima. Be deme ilia hanai defele ima.
23 Make sure you provide in full whatever the God of heaven requires for his Temple, for why should his anger be brought down on the king and his sons?
Noga: le dawa: ma! Liligi huluane Hebene Esalebe Gode da Ea Debolo diasu ganodini legemusa: dawa: sea, amo ima. Bai, agoane hamosea, E da hobea nama, amola fa: no mabe Besia hina bagade dunu ilima hame ougimu.
24 Also be aware that all of the priests, Levites, singers, doorkeepers, Temple servants, or other workers of this Temple are exempt from paying any tax, tribute, or fees, and you are not authorized to charge them.
Dilia eagene dunu! Dilia gobele salasu dunu, Lifai dunu, gesami hea: su dunu, sosodo aligisu dunu amola debolo hawa: hamosu dunu huluane ilima eagene su (da: gisi) maedafa lama.
25 You, Ezra, are to follow the wisdom of your God which you possess, shall appoint magistrates and judges to provide justice to all the people west of the Euphrates—all those who follow the laws of your God. You are to teach these laws to those who do not.
Di, Esela! Gode da dima bagade dawa: su ia dagoiba: le, di ouligisu dunu amola fofada: su dunu ilegema. Ilia da dunu huluane Guma: dini Iufala: idisi soge ganodini Gode Ea sema amola hamoma: ne sia: i amoma fa: no bobogesa, amo ouligima: ne sia: ma. Amola nowa da Gode Ea sema hame dawa: sa, ilima amo sema olelema.
26 Anyone who does not keep the law of your God and the law of the king, will be severely punished, either by death, banishment, seizure of property, or imprisonment.”
Nowa dunu da Gode Ea sema o Besia eagene sema amo hame nabasea, amo dunuma hedolowane se dabe ima. Ema agoane se dabe ima. Medole legema o mugululi masa: ne, sefasima o ea liligi huluane lama o se iasu diasu amo ganodini salima.” Adadegesisi da amo meloa dedene, Eselama i.
27 Praise the Lord, the God of our forefathers, who put into the king's mind to honor the Lord's Temple in Jerusalem in this way,
Esela e amane sia: i, “Ninia aowalali ilia Hina Godema nodoma! Gode da Besia hina bagade ea dogo ganodini olelebeba: le, e da Hina Gode Ea Debolo diasu Yelusaleme amo ganodini amo nodone fidisu.
28 and who has shown me such kindness by honoring me before the king, his counselors, and all his high officials. Because the Lord my God was with me, I was encouraged and called together the leaders of Israel to return to Jerusalem with me.
Gode da nama asigidafa hou hamobeba: le, Besia hina bagade, ea gasolo dunu amola ea gasa bagade ouligisu dunu huluane da nama hahawane gala. Na Hina Gode da na dogo denesiba: le, Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu bagohame da na sia: beba: le mugululi asi fisili, na sigi bu Isala: ili sogega buhagisa.
