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.
Nígbà náà wòlíì Hagai àti wòlíì Sekariah, láti ìran Iddo, sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí àwọn ará Júù ní Juda àti Jerusalẹmu ní orúkọ Ọlọ́run Israẹli tí ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ ń bẹ lára wọn.
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.
Nígbà náà Serubbabeli ọmọ Ṣealitieli àti Jeṣua ọmọ Josadaki gbáradì fún iṣẹ́ àti tún ilé Ọlọ́run ní Jerusalẹmu kọ́. Àwọn wòlíì Ọlọ́run sì wà pẹ̀lú wọn, tí wọ́n ń ràn wọ́n lọ́wọ́.
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?
Ní àkókò náà Tatenai, baálẹ̀ ti agbègbè Eufurate àti Ṣetar-bosnai àti àwọn ẹgbẹgbẹ́ wọn lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ wọn. Wọ́n sì béèrè pé, “Ta ni ó fún un yín ní àṣẹ láti tún tẹmpili yìí kọ́ àti láti tún odi yìí mọ?”
4 Then sayde we vnto them after this maner, What are the names of the men that buylde this buylding?
Wọ́n sì tún béèrè pé, “Kí ni orúkọ àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó ń kọ́ ilé yìí?”
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n ojú Ọlọ́run wọn wà lára àwọn àgbàgbà Júù, wọn kò sì dá wọn dúró títí ìròyìn yóò fi dè ọ̀dọ̀ Dariusi kí wọ́n sì gba èsì tí àkọsílẹ̀ láti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀.
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.
Èyí ni ẹ̀dà lẹ́tà tí Tatenai, olórí agbègbè Eufurate àti Ṣetar-bosnai àti àwọn ẹlẹgbẹ́ ẹ wọn. Àwọn olóyè ti agbègbè Eufurate, fi ránṣẹ́ sí ọba Dariusi.
7 They sent a letter vnto him, wherein it was written thus, VNTO DARIVS the king, all peace.
Ìròyìn tí wọ́n fi ránṣẹ́ sí i kà báyìí pé, Sí ọba Dariusi, Àlàáfíà fún un yín.
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.
Kí ọba kí ó mọ̀ pé a lọ sí ẹ̀kún Juda, sí tẹmpili Ọlọ́run tí ó tóbi. Àwọn ènìyàn náà ń kọ́ ọ pẹ̀lú àwọn òkúta ńlá ńlá àti pẹ̀lú fífi àwọn igi sí ara ògiri. Wọ́n ṣe iṣẹ́ náà pẹ̀lú àìsimi, ó sì ń ní ìtẹ̀síwájú kíákíá lábẹ́ ìṣàkóso wọn.
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?
A bi àwọn àgbàgbà, a sì fi ọ̀rọ̀ wá wọn lẹ́nu wò pé, “Ta ni ó fún un yín ní àṣẹ láti tún ilé Olúwa yìí kọ́ àti láti tún odi rẹ̀ mọ?”
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.
A sì tún béèrè orúkọ wọn pẹ̀lú, kí a lè kọ àwọn orúkọ àwọn olórí wọn sílẹ̀ kí ẹ ba à le mọ ọ́n.
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.
Èyí ni ìdáhùn tí wọ́n fún wa: “Àwa ni ìránṣẹ́ Ọlọ́run ọ̀run àti ayé, àwa sì ń tún tẹmpili ilé Olúwa tí a ti kọ́ ní ọ̀pọ̀ ọdún sẹ́yìn kọ́, èyí tí ọba olókìkí kan ní Israẹli kọ́, tí ó sì parí i rẹ̀.
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n nítorí tí àwọn baba wa mú Ọlọ́run ọ̀run bínú, ó fi wọ́n lé Nebukadnessari ti Kaldea, ọba Babeli lọ́wọ́, ẹni tí ó run tẹmpili Olúwa yìí tí ó sì kó àwọn ènìyàn náà padà sí Babeli.
13 But in the first yere of Cyrus King of Babel, King Cyrus made a decree to buylde this house of God.
“Ṣùgbọ́n ní ọdún kìn-ín-ní ìjọba Kirusi ọba Babeli, ọba Kirusi pàṣẹ pé kí a tún ilé Ọlọ́run yìí kọ́.
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.
Òun tilẹ̀ kò jáde láti inú tẹmpili ní Babeli fàdákà àti ohun èlò wúrà ilé Ọlọ́run, èyí tí Nebukadnessari kó láti inú tẹmpili ní Jerusalẹmu wá sí inú tẹmpili ní Babeli. Ọba Kirusi kó wọn fún ọkùnrin kan tí orúkọ rẹ̀ a máa jẹ́ Ṣeṣbassari, ẹni tí ó ti yàn gẹ́gẹ́ bí i baálẹ̀,
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.
ó sì sọ fún un pé, ‘Kó àwọn ohun èlò yìí kí o lọ, kí o sì kó wọn sí inú ilé Olúwa ní Jerusalẹmu, kí ẹ sì tún ilé Ọlọ́run kọ́ sí ipò o rẹ̀.’
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.
“Nígbà náà ni Ṣeṣbassari náà wá, ó sí fi ìpìlẹ̀ ilé Ọlọ́run tí ó wá ní Jerusalẹmu lélẹ̀, láti ìgbà náà àní títí di ìsinsin yìí ni o ti n bẹ ní kíkọ́ ṣùgbọ́n, kò sí tí ì parí tán.”
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.
