Ezra 3
1 And when the seuenth moneth was come, and the children of Israel were in their cities, the people assembled themselues as one man vnto Ierusalem.
Na rĩrĩ, mweri wa mũgwanja wakinya, andũ a Isiraeli magĩkorwo matũũrĩte matũũra-inĩ mao, andũ makĩũngana Jerusalemu marĩ ta mũndũ ũmwe.
2 Then stoode vp Ieshua rhe sonne of Iozadak, and his brethren the Priests, and Zerubbabel the sonne of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and builded the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings thereon, as it is written in ye Lawe of Moses the man of God,
Nake Jeshua mũrũ wa Jozadaku hamwe na athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa angĩ, o na Zerubabeli mũrũ wa Shealitieli na athiritũ ake makĩambĩrĩria gwaka kĩgongona kĩa Ngai wa Isiraeli gĩa kũrutagĩra magongona ma njino kũringana na ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo Watho-inĩ wa Musa mũndũ wa Ngai.
3 And they set the altar vpon his bases (for feare was among them, because of the people of those countreis) therefore they offered burnt offrings thereon vnto the Lord, euen burnt offrings in the morning, and at euen.
O na gũtuĩka maarĩ na guoya wa andũ arĩa maamathiũrũrũkĩirie, nĩmakire kĩgongona mũthingi-inĩ wakĩo, na makĩrutĩra Jehova magongona ma njino ho, magongona ma rũciinĩ na ma hwaĩ-inĩ.
4 They kept also the feast of the Tabernacles, as it is written, and the burnt offring dayly, by nomber according to the custome day by day,
Ningĩ kũringana na ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo, nĩmakũngũĩire Gĩathĩ gĩa Ithũnũ na mũigana wa maruta ma njino marĩa maatuĩtwo ma o mũthenya.
5 And afterwarde the continuall bnrnt offring, both in the newe moneths and in all the feast dayes that were consecrate vnto the Lord, and in all the oblations willingly offered vnto the Lord.
Thuutha ũcio makĩruta maruta ma njino ma ndũire, na magongona ma Karũgamo ka Mweri, na magongona ma ciathĩ ciothe iria ciamũrĩirwo Jehova, o hamwe na maruta ma kwĩyendera marĩa maarehagĩrwo Jehova.
6 From the first day of the seuenth moneth began they to offer burnt offrings vnto the Lord: but the foundation of the Temple of the Lord was not layed.
Mũthenya wa mbere wa mweri wa mũgwanja makĩambĩrĩria kũrutĩra Jehova maruta ma njino, o na gũtuĩka mũthingi wa hekarũ ya Jehova ndwarĩ mwake.
7 They gaue money also vnto the masons, and to the workemen, and meat and drinke, and oyle vnto them of Zidon and of Tyrus, to bring them cedar wood from Lebanon to the sea vnto Iapho, according to the graunt that they had of Cyrus King of Persia.
Ningĩ makĩhe aaki a mahiga na mabundi ma mbaũ mbeeca, na makĩhe andũ a Sidoni na andũ a Turo irio, na gĩa kũnyua, na maguta nĩgeetha mamarehithĩrie mĩgogo ya mĩtarakwa kuuma Lebanoni ĩgereire iria-inĩ nginya Jopa, o ta ũrĩa gwaathanĩtwo nĩ Mũthamaki Kurusu wa Perisia.
8 And in the seconde yeere of their comming vnto the house of God in Ierusalem in the second moneth began Zerubbabel the sonne of Shealtiel, and Ieshua the sonne of Iozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the Priests and the Leuites, and all they that were come out of the captiuitie vnto Ierusalem, and appointed the Leuites from twentie yeere olde and aboue, to set forwarde the worke of the house of the Lord.
Mweri wa keerĩ wa mwaka wa keerĩ thuutha wa gũkinya nyũmba-inĩ ya Jehova kũu Jerusalemu, Zerubabeli mũrũ wa Shealitieli, na Jeshua mũrũ wa Jozadaku na ariũ a ithe wao arĩa angĩ (nĩo athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na Alawii, na arĩa othe maacookete Jerusalemu kuuma ithaamĩrio-inĩ) makĩambĩrĩria wĩra, magĩthuura Alawii a mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na makĩria nĩguo marũgamĩrĩre mwako wa nyũmba ya Jehova.
9 And Ieshua stood with his sonnes, and his brethren, and Kadmiel with his sonnes, and the sonnes of Iudah together to set forward ye workemen in the house of God, and the sonnes of Henadad with their sonnes, and their brethren the Leuites.
Jeshua na ariũ ake, na ariũ a ithe, na Kadimieli na ariũ ake (njiaro cia Hodavia), na ariũ a Henadadi na ariũ ao na ariũ a ithe wao, nĩo Alawii othe, makĩnyiitanĩra wĩra wa kũrũgamĩrĩra arĩa maakaga nyũmba ya Ngai.
10 And when the builders layed the foundation of the Temple of the Lord, they appoynted the Priestes in their apparel with trumpets, and the Leuites the sonnes of Asaph with cymbales, to prayse the Lord, after the ordinance of Dauid King of Israel.
Rĩrĩa aaki maarĩkirie gwaka mũthingi wa Hekarũ ya Jehova, athĩnjĩri-Ngai mehumbĩte nguo ciao na marĩ na tũrumbeta, na Alawii (ariũ a Asafu) marĩ na thaani iria ihũũrithanagio ikagamba, makĩĩhaarĩria kũgooca Jehova, o ta ũrĩa gwathanĩtwo nĩ Daudi mũthamaki wa Isiraeli.
11 Thus they sang when they gaue prayse, and when they gaue thankes vnto the Lord, For he is good, for his mercie endureth for euer toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shoute, when they praysed the Lord, because the foundation of the house of the Lord was layed.
Makĩinĩra Jehova, makĩmũgoocaga magĩcookagia ngaatho, makiugaga atĩrĩ: “Jehova nĩ mwega wendo wake harĩ Isiraeli ũtũũraga tene na tene.” Nao andũ othe makĩgooca manĩrĩire mũno tondũ mũthingi wa nyũmba ya Jehova nĩwaakĩtwo.
12 Many also of the Priests and the Leuites and the chiefe of the fathers, ancient men which had seene the first house, (when the foundation of this house was layed before their eyes) wept with a loud voyce, and many shouted aloud for ioy,
No athĩnjĩri-Ngai aingĩ arĩa maarĩ akũrũ, na Alawii, na atongoria a nyũmba, arĩa moonete hekarũ ya mbere makĩrĩra manĩrĩire rĩrĩa moonire mũthingi wa hekarũ ĩyo ya keerĩ ũgĩakwo, o rĩrĩa andũ angĩ aingĩ maanagĩrĩra nĩ gũkena.
13 So that the people coulde not discerne the sound of the shoute for ioy, from the noyse of the weeping of the people: for the people shouted with a loude crie, and the noyse was heard farre off.
Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩahotire gũkũũrana kwanĩrĩra gwa gĩkeno na gwa kĩrĩro, tondũ andũ maanagĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene. Naguo mũgambo ũcio ũkĩiguuo kũndũ kũraya.
