Ezra 5
1 Then Haggai a Prophet and Zechariah the sonne of Iddo a Prophet prophecied vnto the Iewes that were in Iudah, and Ierusalem, in the name of the God of Israel, euen vnto them.
Yeroo kanatti Haageen raajichii fi Zakkaariyaas ilmi Iddoo raajichi, maqaa Waaqa Israaʼel kan isaan wajjin jiraatu sanaan Yihuudoota warra Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem keessa jiranitti raajii dubbatan.
2 Then Zerubbabel the sonne of Shealtiel, and Ieshua the sonne of Iozadak arose, and began to builde the house of God at Ierusalem, and with them were the Prophetes of God, which helped them.
Kana irratti Zarubaabel ilmi Sheʼaltiiʼeelii fi Iyyaasuun ilmi Yoosaadaaq Yerusaalem keessatti mana Waaqaa deebisanii ijaaruu jalqaban. Raajonni Waaqaas isaan gargaaruuf isaanuma wajjin turan.
3 At the same time came to them Tatnai, which was captaine beyonde the Riuer, and Shether-boznai and their companions, and sayd thus vnto them, Who hath giuen you commandement to buylde this house, and to lay the foundations of these walles?
Yeroo sanatti Taatenaayi bulchaan Gama Laga Efraaxiis, Satarbuznaayii fi deeggartoonni isaanii gara isaanii dhaqanii, “Akka isin mana qulqullummaa kana deebiftanii ijaartanii fi akka isin dallaa dhagaa kanas akka duriitti deebiftan eenyutu isiniif eeyyame?” jedhanii gaafatan.
4 Then sayde we vnto them after this maner, What are the names of the men that buylde this buylding?
Akkasumas, “Maqaan warra mana kana ijaaruu eenyu faʼi?” jedhanii gaafatan.
5 But the eye of their God was vpon the Elders of the Iewes, that they coulde not cause them to cease, till the matter came to Darius: and then they answered by letters thereunto.
Garuu iji Waaqa isaanii maanguddoota Yihuudaa irra turte; isaanis hamma gabaasni sun Daariyoos bira gaʼee deebiin isaa barreeffamaan dhufutti hojii hin dhaabne.
6 The copie of the letter, that Tatnai captaine beyond the Riuer, and Shether-boznai and his companions, Apharsechaie, (which were beyond the Riuer) sent vnto King Darius.
Kunis garagalchaa xalayaa Taatenaayi bulchaan Gama Laga Efraaxiis, Satarbuznaayi, deeggartoonni isaanii fi qondaaltonni Gama Laga Efraaxiis jiraatan Daariyoos Mootichatti erganii ti.
7 They sent a letter vnto him, wherein it was written thus, VNTO DARIVS the king, all peace.
Gabaasni isaan erganiif sunis akkana jedha: Gara Daariyoos Mootichaa: Nagaa ulfinaan guutame siif ergina.
8 Be it knowen vnto the King, that we went into the prouince of Iudea, to the house of the great God, which is builded with great stones, and beames are layde in the walles, and this worke is wrought speedily, and prospereth in their hands.
Mootichi akka nu gara aanaa Yihuudaa gara mana qulqullummaa Waaqa guddichaa dhaqnee turre haa beeku. Namoonni dhagaa gurguddaadhaan mana sana ijaaraa, laaxaas keenyan manaa keessa kaaʼaa jiru. Hojiin kunis ciminaan hojjetamaa harka isaanii jalatti guddina argisiisaa jira.
9 Then asked we those Elders, and sayd vnto them thus, Who hath giuen you commandement to buylde this house, and to lay the foundation of these walles?
Nu maanguddoota sana dubbifnee, “Eenyutu akka isin mana qulqullummaa kana deebiftanii ijaartanii fi akka isin ijaarsa isaa akka duriitti deebiftan isiniif eeyyame?” jennee isaan gaafanne.
10 We asked their names also, that we might certifie thee, and that we might write the names of the men that were their rulers.
Akkasumas akka maqaa hooggantoota isaanii barreessinee si beeksifnuuf maqaa isaanii illee gaafannee ture.
11 But they answered vs thus, and sayd, We are the seruants of the God of heauen and earth, and buylde the house that was buylt of olde and many yeeres ago, which a great King of Israel builded, and founded it.
Isaanis deebii kana nuu kennan: “Nu garboota Waaqa samii fi lafaa ti; nu mana qulqullummaa kan bara dheeraan dura ijaarame, kan mootiin Israaʼel guddichi ijaaree fixe sana deebifnee ijaaraa jirra.
12 But after that our fathers had prouoked the God of heauen vnto wrath, he gaue them ouer into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar King of Babel the Caldean, and he destroyed this house, and caryed the people away captiue vnto Babel.
Garuu sababii abbootiin keenya Waaqa samii aarsaniif inni dabarsee harka Nebukadnezar namicha biyya Kaldootaa, mootii Baabilonitti isaan kenne; innis mana qulqullummaa kana barbadeessee uummatas biyyaa baasee Baabilonitti geesse.
13 But in the first yere of Cyrus King of Babel, King Cyrus made a decree to buylde this house of God.
“Taʼu illee waggaa tokkoffaa bara mootummaa Qiiros mooticha Baabilon keessa Qiiros Mootichi akka manni Waaqaa kun deebifame ijaaramuuf labsii tokko labse.
14 And the vessels of golde and siluer of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar tooke out of the Temple, that was in Ierusalem, and brought them into the Temple of Babel, those did Cyrus the king take out of the Temple of Babel, and they gaue them vnto one Sheshbazzar by his name, whome he had made captaine.
Innis miʼa warqee fi meetii mana Waaqaa kan Nebukadnezar mana qulqullummaa Yerusaalem keessaa guuree Baabilonitti geesse sana masaraa mootummaa Baabilon keessaa ni baase. Qiiros Mootichi namicha Sheeshbasaar jedhamu kan inni bulchaa godhee muude sanatti miʼa kana kennee
15 And he sayde vnto him, Take these vessels and goe thy way, and put them in the Temple that is in Ierusalem, and let the house of God be buylt in his place.
akkana jedheen; ‘Miʼa kana fuudhii dhaqiitii mana qulqullummaa kan Yerusaalem keessa jiru sanatti galchi. Mana Waaqaas iddoo isaatti deebisii ijaari.’
16 Then came the same Sheshbazzar and layde the foundation of the house of God, which is in Ierusalem, and since that time euen vntill nowe, hath it bene in buylding, yet is it not finished.
“Ergasiis Sheeshbasaar kun dhufee hundee mana Waaqaa kan Yerusaalem keessaa buuse. Yeroo sanaa jalqabee hamma ammaatti manni sun ijaaramaa jira; garuu amma illee hin dhumne.”
17 Nowe therefore if it please the King, let there be searche made in the house of the Kings treasures, which is there in Babel, whether a decree hath bene made by King Cyrus, to build this house of God in Ierusalem, and let the King send his minde concerning this.
Egaa amma yoo fedhii mootichaa taʼe, Qiiros Mootichi dhugumaan akka manni Waaqaa kun Yerusaalem keessatti deebifamee ijaaramuuf labsii baasuu fi baasuu baachuu isaa beekuuf galmeen masaraa mootummaa Baabilon haa qoratamu. Ergasiis mootichi yaada waan kana irratti qabu nuuf haa ergu.
