< Ezra 6 >

1 Then Darius the king made a decree, and search was made in the house of the rolls, where the treasures were laid up in Babylon.
Imbilin ngarud ni Ari Dario ti pannakasukimat ti balay a nakaidulinan dagiti napapateg a listaan idiay Babilonia.
2 And there was found at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of the Medes, a roll, and therein was a record thus written:
Iti nasarikedkedan a siudad ti Ecbatana idiay Media, nasarakan ti maysa a nalukot a pagbasaan; daytoy ti nailanad:
3 In the first year of Cyrus the king the same Cyrus the king made a decree concerning the house of God at Jerusalem, Let the house be built, the place where they offered sacrifices, and let the foundations thereof be strongly laid; the height thereof threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof threescore cubits;
“Iti umuna a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Cyrus, nangipaulog ni Cyrus iti bilin maipanggep iti balay ti Dios idiay Jerusalem: 'Maipalubos ti pannakaibangon ti balay a pagidatonan. Ti kangato dagiti paderna ket innem a pulo a kubiko ken ti kaakabana ket innem a pulo a kubiko,
4 With three rows of great stones, and a row of new timber: and let the expenses be given out of the king's house:
nga addaan iti tallo a katoon ti dadakkel a bato ken maysa a katoon ti barbaro a kayo. Ket ti amin a magastos ket agtaud iti balay ti ari.
5 And also let the golden and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took forth out of the temple which is at Jerusalem, and brought unto Babylon, be restored, and brought again unto the temple which is at Jerusalem, every one to his place, and place them in the house of God.
Kasta met a maisubli dagiti balitok ken pirak nga alikamen a kukua ti balay ti Dios nga innala ni Nebukadnesar manipud iti templo idiay Jerusalem nga impanna iti templo idiay Babilonia. Maipatulod dagitoy iti templo idiay Jerusalem ken maidulin dagitoy iti balay ti Dios.'
6 Now therefore, Tatnai, governor beyond the river, Shetharboznai, and your companions the Apharsachites, which are beyond the river, be all of you far from thence:
Ita, Tatnai, Setar Bozenai, ken dagiti kadduayo nga opisial nga agnanaed iti ballasiw ti karayan, saankayo a makibiang.
7 Let the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God in his place.
Saanyo a pakibiangan ti pannakaaramid daytoy a balay ti Dios. Dagiti gobernador ken dagiti panglakayen a Judio ti mangibangonto daytoy a balay ti Dios iti dayta a lugar.
8 Moreover I make a decree what all of you shall do to the elders of these Jews for the building of this house of God: that of the king's goods, even of the tribute beyond the river, forthwith expenses be given unto these men, that they be not hindered.
Ibilbilinko a masapul nga aramidenyo daytoy para kadagitoy a panglakayen dagiti Judio a mangbangon iti daytoy a balay ti Dios: Dagiti pondo nga agtaud iti buis ti ari iti ballasiw ti Karayan ti mausarto a pangbayad kadagitoy a lallaki tapno saanda nga isardeng ti trabahoda.
9 And that which they have need of, both young bullocks, and rams, and lambs, for the burnt offerings of the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the appointment of the priests which are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail:
Aniaman a kasapulan—dagiti urbon a baka, dagiti kalakian a karnero, wenno dagiti urbon a karnero para iti daton a mapuoran para iti Dios ti Langit, agraman ti trigo, asin, arak, wenno lana, segun iti bilin dagiti padi iti Jerusalem—itedyo kadakuada dagitoy a banbanag iti inaldaw nga awan langanna.
10 That they may offer sacrifices of sweet savours unto the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king, and of his sons.
Aramidenyo daytoy tapno makaidatagda iti daton iti Dios ti Langit ket ikararagandak, nga ari, ken dagiti putotko a lallaki.
11 Also I have made a decree, that whosoever shall alter this word, let timber be pulled down from his house, and being set up, let him be hanged thereon; and let his house be made a dunghill for this.
Ibilbilinko a no siasinoman ti mangsalungasing iti daytoy naipaulog a bilin, masapul a maiguyod ti maysa a soleras ti balayna ket masapul a maiduyok isuna iti daytoy. Ket agbalin ngarud a gabsuon ti rugit ti balayna gapu iti daytoy.
12 And the God that has caused his name to dwell there destroy all kings and people, that shall put to their hand to alter and to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree; let it be done with speed.
Dadaelen koma ti Dios nga agnanaed sadiay ti siasinoman nga ari ken dagiti tattao a mangsalungasing iti daytoy a balay ti Dios idiay Jerusalem. Siak ni Dario a mangibilbilin iti daytoy. Aramidenyo daytoy a naan-anay!”
13 Then Tatnai, governor on this side the river, Shetharboznai, and their companions, according to that which Darius the king had sent, so they did speedily.
Kalpasanna, inaramid da Tatnai, Setar Boznai, ken dagiti kakaduada dagiti amin nga imbilin ni Ari Dario.
14 And the elders of the Jews built, and they prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they built, and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the commandment of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.
Isu a nangipatakder dagiti panglakayen a Judio iti wagas nga insuro da Haggeo ken Zacarias babaen iti panangipadto. Imbangonda daytoy segun iti bilin ti Dios ti Israel, ken babaen iti bilin da Cyrus, Dario ken Artaxerxes, a dagiti ari ti Persia.
15 And this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
Nalpas ti balay iti maikatlo nga aldaw iti bulan ti Adar, ken iti maikainnem a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Dario.
16 And the children of Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy.
Dagiti Israelita, dagiti padi, dagiti Levita ken dagiti nabati kadagiti naibalud idi ti nangidaton daytoy a balay ti Dios nga addaan iti rag-o.
17 And offered at the dedication of this house of God an hundred bullocks, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve he goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
Nangidatonda iti sangagasut a baka, sangagasut a kalakian a karnero ken uppat a gasut nga urbon ti karnero para iti pannakaidaton iti balay ti Dios. Naidaton met ti sangapulo ket dua a kalakian a kalding a kas daton gapu iti basol para iti entero nga Israel, maysa para iti tunggal tribu ti Israel.
18 And they set the priests in their divisions, and the Levites in their courses, for the service of God, which is at Jerusalem; as it is written in the book of Moses.
Dinutokanda pay dagiti padi ken dagiti Levita iti pannakabingay a trabaho para iti panagserbida iti Dios idiay Jerusalem, a kas iti naisurat iti Libro ni Moises.
19 And the children of the captivity kept the passover upon the fourteenth day of the first month.
Isu a rinambakan dagiti naipanaw idi a kas balud ti Fiesta ti Ilalabas iti maikasangapulo ket uppat nga aldaw ti umuna a bulan.
20 For the priests and the Levites were purified together, all of them were pure, and killed the passover for all the children of the captivity, and for their brethren the priests, and for themselves.
Dinalusan amin dagiti Levita ken dagiti padi ti bagida ken pinartida dagiti sagut para iti Fiesta ti Ilalabas para kadagiti amin a naipanaw idi a kas balud, agraman dagiti bagida.
21 And the children of Israel, which were come again out of captivity, and all such as had separated themselves unto them from the filthiness of the heathen of the land, to seek the LORD God of Israel, did eat,
Dagiti Israelita a nangan kadagiti sumagmamano a karne a naisagana iti Fiesta ti Ilalabas ket dagiti nagsubli manipud iti pannakaipanaw idi a kas balud ken dagiti nangilasin kadagiti bagida manipud iti kinarugit dagiti tattao iti daga ken nangbirok kenni Yahweh, a Dios ti Israel.
22 And kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy: for the LORD had made them joyful, and turned the heart of the king of Assyria unto them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel.
Rinambakanda a sirarag-o ti Fiesta ti Tinapay nga Awan Lebadurana iti las-ud ti pito nga aldaw, ta innikkan ida ni Yahweh iti rag-o ken tinignayna ti puso ti ari ti Asiria a mangpabileg kadagiti imada iti panagtrabaho iti balayna, ti balay ti Dios ti Israel.
