< Ezra 8 >
1 These are now the chiefe fathers of them, and the genealogie of them that came vp with mee from Babel, in the reigne of King Artahshashte.

15 And I gathered them to the Riuer that goeth toward Ahaua, and there abode we three dayes: then I viewed the people, and the Priests, and found there none of the sonnes of Leui.
Nĩndamacookanĩrĩirie hamwe rũũĩ-inĩ rũrĩa rũthereraga rũrorete Ahava, na tũgĩikara hau mĩthenya ĩtatũ. Na rĩrĩ, rĩrĩa ndarorire gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ acio na athĩnjĩri-Ngai, ndionire Alawii ho.
16 Therefore sent I to Eliezer, to Ariel, to Shemeiah, and to Elnathan, and to Iarib, and to Elnathan, and to Nathan, and to Zechariah, and to Meshullam the chiefe, and to Ioiarib and to Elnathan, men of vnderstanding,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngĩtũmanĩra Eliezeri, na Arieli, na Shemaia, na Elinathani, na Jaribu, na Elinathani, na Nathani, na Zekaria, na Meshulamu arĩa maarĩ atongoria, na Joiaribu na Elinathani, andũ arĩa maarĩ arutani,
17 And I gaue them commandement, to Iddo the chiefest at the place of Casiphia, and I told them the words that they should speake to Iddo, and to his brethren the Nethinims at the place of Casiphia, that they should cause the ministers of the house of our God to come vnto vs.
ngĩmatũma kũrĩ Ido mũtongoria wa Kasifia. Ngĩmeera ũrĩa megũthiĩ kwĩra Ido na andũ a nyũmba yake, acio ndungata cia hekarũ kũu Kasifia, nĩguo matũrehere aruti a wĩra wa nyũmba ya Ngai witũ.
18 So by the good hande of our God which was vpon vs, they brought vs a man of vnderstanding of the sonnes of Mahali the sonne of Leui the sonne of Israel, and Sherebiah with his sonnes and his brethren, euen eighteene.
Na tondũ guoko kwa ũtugi kwa Ngai witũ kwarĩ hamwe na ithuĩ-rĩ, magĩtũrehere Sherebia, mũndũ mũhoti wa kuuma njiaro cia Mahili mũrũ wa Lawi, ũrĩa warĩ mũrũ wa Isiraeli, na ariũ a Sherebia na ariũ a ithe, othe maarĩ andũ 18;
19 Also Hashabiah, and with him Ieshaiah of the sonnes of Merari, with his brethren, and their sonnes twentie.
Na makĩrehe Hashabia hamwe na Jeshaia wa kuuma njiaro cia Merari, na ariũ a ithe na ciana ciao, othe andũ 20.
20 And of the Nethinims, whom Dauid had set, and the Princes for the seruice of the Leuites, two hundreth and twentie of the Nethinims, which all were named by name.
Ningĩ makĩrehe andũ ndungata 220 cia hekarũ, gĩkundi gĩathondeketwo nĩ Daudi na anene ake nĩguo gĩteithagĩrĩrie Alawii. Othe makĩandĩkwo na marĩĩtwa mao.
21 And there at the Riuer, by Ahaua, I proclaimed a fast, that we might humble our selues before our God, and seeke of him a right way for vs, and for our children, and for all our substance.
Tũrĩ o hau rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Ahava, ngĩanĩrĩra twĩhinge kũrĩa irio, nĩguo tũhote kwĩnyiihia mbere ya Ngai witũ tũmũhooe atũgitĩre rũgendo-inĩ, ithuĩ na ciana ciitũ, hamwe na indo ciitũ ciothe.
22 For I was ashamed to require of the King an armie and horsemen, to helpe vs against the enemie in the way, because we had spoken to the King, saying, The hande of our God is vpon all them that seeke him in goodnesse, but his power and his wrath is against all them that forsake him.
Nĩndaiguire thoni kũũria mũthamaki atũhe thigari cia magũrũ o na iria ithiiaga ihaicĩte mbarathi cia gũtũgitĩra harĩ thũ njĩra-inĩ, tondũ nĩtwerĩte mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Guoko kwa ũtugi kwa Ngai witũ kũrĩ igũrũ rĩa mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ũmwĩhokaga, no marakara make manene marĩ igũrũ rĩa arĩa othe mamũtiganagĩria.”
23 So we fasted, aud besought our God for this: and he was intreated of vs.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio tũkĩĩhinga kũrĩa irio na tũgĩthaitha Ngai witũ nĩ ũndũ wa ũhoro ũcio, nake agĩcookia ihooya riitũ.
24 Then I separated twelue of the chiefe of the Priests, Sherebiah, and Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them,
Ningĩ ngĩamũra athĩnjĩri-Ngai ikũmi na eerĩ arĩa maarĩ atongoria, hamwe na Sherebia, na Hashabia, na ariũ a ithe wao ikũmi,
25 And weighed them the siluer and the gold, and the vessels, euen the offring of ye house of our God, which the King and his counselers, and his Princes, and all Israel that were present had offred.
na ngĩmathimĩra maruta ma betha na thahabu, na indo iria ciaheanĩtwo nĩ mũthamaki, na ataari ake, na anene ake, na andũ othe a Isiraeli arĩa maarĩ kuo, nĩ ũndũ wa nyũmba ya Ngai witũ.
26 And I weighed vnto their hand sixe hundreth and fiftie talents of siluer, and in siluer vessel, an hundreth talents, and in golde, an hundreth talents:
Ngĩmathimĩra taranda 650 cia betha, na indo cia betha cia ũritũ wa taranda igana rĩmwe, na taranda igana rĩmwe cia thahabu,
27 And twentie basins of golde, of a thousand drammes, and two vessels of shining brasse very good, and precious as golde.
na mbakũri 20 cia thahabu cia thogora wa mbaũni 1,000, na indo igĩrĩ cia gĩcango gĩtherie mũno kĩa goro o ta thahabu.
28 And I said vnto them, Ye are consecrate vnto the Lord, and the vessels are consecrate, and the gold and the siluer are freely offred vnto the Lord God of your fathers.
Ngĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ o ũndũ ũmwe na indo ici nĩ mwamũrĩirwo Jehova. Betha na thahabu ici nĩ maruta ma kwĩyendera marutĩirwo Jehova Ngai wa maithe manyu.
29 Watch ye, and keepe them vntill ye weigh them before the chiefe Priestes and the Leuites, and the chiefe fathers of Israel in Ierusalem in the chambers of the house of the Lord.
Mũcimenyerere wega o nginya rĩrĩa mũgaacithimĩra tũnyũmba-inĩ tũrĩa tũrĩ thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya Jehova kũu Jerusalemu mbere ya athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa atongoria, na Alawii, na atongoria a nyũmba cia Isiraeli.”
30 So the Priests and the Leuites receiued the weight of the siluer and of the golde, and of the vessels to bring them to Ierusalem, vnto the house of our God.
Nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii makĩamũkĩra betha na thahabu, na indo icio nyamũre iria ciathimĩtwo nĩguo itwarwo nyũmba ya Ngai witũ kũu Jerusalemu.
31 Then we departed from the Riuer of Ahauah on the twelft day of the first moneth, to go vnto Ierusalem, and the hand of our God was vpon vs, and deliuered vs from the hand of the enemie, and of such as layde waite by the way.
Na mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ mweri wa mbere tũkiuma rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Ahava twerekeire Jerusalemu. Guoko kwa Ngai witũ kwarĩ hamwe na ithuĩ, nake agĩtũgitĩra kuuma kũrĩ thũ na njangiri njĩra-inĩ.
32 And we came to Ierusalem, and abode there three dayes.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio tũgĩkinya Jerusalemu, na tũkĩhurũka kuo mĩthenya ĩtatũ.
33 And on ye fourth day was the siluer weighed, and the golde and the vessell in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the sonne of Vriah the Priest, and with him was Eleazar the sonne of Phinehas, and with them was Iozabad the sonne of Ieshua, and Noadiah the sonne of Binnui the Leuites,
Mũthenya wa kana, tũrĩ thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya Ngai witũ, tũgĩthima betha na thahabu na indo iria nyamũre ikĩneanwo moko-inĩ ma Meremothu mũrũ wa Uria, ũrĩa mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai. Eleazaru mũrũ wa Finehasi aarĩ hamwe nake, o ũndũ ũmwe na Jozabadu mũrũ wa Jeshua, na Noadia mũrũ wa Binui, arĩa Alawii.
34 By number and by weight of euery one, and all the weight was written at the same time.
Indo ciothe nĩciatarirwo kũringana na mũigana na ũritũ wacio, naguo ũritũ wacio ũrĩ wothe ũkĩandĩkwo o hĩndĩ ĩyo.
35 Also the children of the captiuitie, which were come out of captiuitie, offred burnt offrings vnto the God of Israel, twelue bullockes for all Israel, ninetie and sixe rammes, seuentie and seuen lambes, and twelue hee goates for sinne: all was a burnt offring of the Lord.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo arĩa maacookete kuuma kũrĩa maatahĩirwo makĩrutĩra Ngai wa Isiraeli maruta ma njino: makĩruta ndegwa ikũmi na igĩrĩ nĩ ũndũ wa andũ a Isiraeli othe, na ndũrũme mĩrongo kenda na ithathatũ, na tũtũrũme mĩrongo mũgwanja na mũgwanja, na makĩruta thenge ikũmi na igĩrĩ irĩ iruta rĩa kũhoroheria mehia. Ici ciothe ciarutĩirwo Jehova irĩ iruta rĩa njino.
36 And they deliuered the Kings commission vnto the Kings officers, and to the captaines beyond the Riuer: and they promoted the people, and the house of God.
Magĩcooka magĩtwara mawatho ma mũthamaki kũrĩ anene arĩa maathuurĩtwo nĩ mũthamaki, na kũrĩ mabarũthi ma Mũrĩmo-wa-Farati, nao magĩteithia andũ na magĩteithĩrĩria maũndũ ma nyũmba ya Ngai.
