< Ezra 3 >
1 And the seventh month came on, and the children of Israel [were] in their cities, and the people assembled as one man at Jerusalem.
Nígbà tí ó di oṣù keje tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì ti wà nínú àwọn ìlú wọn, àwọn ènìyàn péjọpọ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹnìkan ní Jerusalẹmu.
2 Then stood up Jesus the [son] of Josedec, and his brethren the priests, and Zorobabel the [son] of Salathiel, and his brethren, and they built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer upon it whole burnt offerings, according to the things that were written in the law of Moses the man of God.
Nígbà náà ni Jeṣua ọmọ Josadaki àti àwọn àlùfáà ẹlẹgbẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ Serubbabeli ọmọ Ṣealitieli àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní kọ́ pẹpẹ Ọlọ́run Israẹli láti rú ẹbọ sísun níbẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlànà tí a ti kọ sínú ìwé òfin Mose ènìyàn Ọlọ́run.
3 And they set up the altar on its place, for there was a terror upon them because of the people of the lands: and the whole burnt offerings was offered up upon it to the Lord morning and evening.
Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ wí pé ẹ̀rù àwọn ènìyàn tí ó yí wọn ká ń bà wọ́n síbẹ̀, wọ́n kọ́ pẹpẹ sórí ìpìlẹ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n sì rú ẹbọ sísun lórí rẹ̀ sí Olúwa, ọrẹ àárọ̀ àti ìrọ̀lẹ́.
4 And they kept the feast of tabernacles, according to that which was written, and [offered] whole burnt offerings daily in number according to the ordinance, the exact daily rate.
Nígbà náà ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú ohun tí a kọ, wọ́n ṣe àjọ àgọ́ ìpàdé pẹ̀lú iye ẹbọ sísun tí a fi lélẹ̀ fún ọjọ́ kọ̀ọ̀kan.
5 And after this the perpetual whole burnt offering, and [offering] for the season of new moon, and for all the hallowed feasts to the Lord, and for every one that offered a free will offering to the Lord.
Lẹ́yìn náà, wọ́n ṣe ìrúbọ ẹbọ sísun àtìgbàdégbà, ẹbọ oṣù tuntun àti gbogbo àwọn ẹbọ fún gbogbo àpèjẹ tí a yà sọ́tọ̀ fún Olúwa, àti àwọn tí a mú wá gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọrẹ àtinúwá fún Olúwa.
6 On the first day of the seventh month they began to offer whole burnt offerings to the Lord: but the foundation of the house of the Lord was not laid.
Ní ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní oṣù keje, wọ́n bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní rú ẹbọ sísun sí Olúwa, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé a kò ì tí ì fi ìpìlẹ̀ ilé Olúwa lélẹ̀.
7 And they gave money to the stone-hewers and carpenters, and meat and drink, and oil, to the Sidonians, and Tyrians, to bring cedar trees from Libanus to the sea of Joppa, according to the grant of Cyrus king of the Persians to them.
Nígbà náà ni wọ́n fún àwọn ọ̀mọ̀lé àti àwọn gbẹ́nàgbẹ́nà ní owó, wọ́n sì tún fi oúnjẹ, ohun mímu àti òróró fún àwọn ará Sidoni àti Tire, kí wọ́n ba à le è kó igi kedari gba ti orí omi Òkun láti Lebanoni wá sí Joppa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Kirusi ọba Persia ti pàṣẹ.
8 And in the second year of their coming to the house of God in Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zorobabel the [son] of Salathiel, and Jesus the [son] of Josedec, and the rest of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all who came from the captivity to Jerusalem, and they appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, over the workmen in the house of the Lord.
Ní oṣù kejì ọdún kejì lẹ́yìn tí wọ́n ti padà dé sí ilé Ọlọ́run ní Jerusalẹmu, Serubbabeli ọmọ Ṣealitieli, Jeṣua ọmọ Josadaki àti àwọn arákùnrin yòókù (àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ará Lefi àti gbogbo àwọn tí ó ti ìgbèkùn dé sí Jerusalẹmu) bẹ̀rẹ̀ iṣẹ́ náà. Wọ́n sì yan àwọn ọmọ Lefi tí ó tó ọmọ-ogun ọdún sókè láti máa bojútó kíkọ́ ilé Olúwa.
9 And Jesus and his sons and his brethren stood, Cadmiel and his sons the sons of Juda, over them that wrought the works in the house of God: the sons of Enadad, their sons and their brethren the Levites.
Jeṣua àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ àti àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ àti Kadmieli àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, àwọn ọmọ Juda (àwọn ìran Hodafiah) àti àwọn ọmọ Henadadi àti àwọn ọmọ wọn àti àwọn arákùnrin wọn—gbogbo ará Lefi—parapọ̀ láti bojútó àwọn òṣìṣẹ́ náà tí wọ́n ń ṣiṣẹ́ lórí í kíkọ́ ilé Ọlọ́run.
10 And they laid a foundation for building the house of the Lord: and the priests in their robes stood with trumpets and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the Lord, according to the order of David king of Israel.
Nígbà tí àwọn ọ̀mọ̀lé gbé ìpìlẹ̀ ilé Olúwa kalẹ̀, àwọn àlùfáà nínú aṣọ iṣẹ́ àlùfáà wọn pẹ̀lú fèrè, àti àwọn ará Lefi (àwọn ọmọ Asafu) pẹ̀lú símbálì, dúró ní ipò wọn láti yin Olúwa, bí Dafidi ọba Israẹli ti fi lélẹ̀.
11 And they answered [each other] with praise and thanksgiving to the Lord, [saying], For [it is] good, for his mercy to Israel [endures] for ever. And all the people shouted with a loud voice to praise the Lord at the laying the foundation of the house of the Lord.
Pẹ̀lú ìyìn àti ọpẹ́ ni wọ́n kọrin sí Olúwa: “Ó dára; ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ sí Israẹli dúró títí láé.” Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sì fi ohùn ariwo ńlá yin Olúwa, nítorí tí a ti fi ìpìlẹ̀ ilé Olúwa lélẹ̀.
12 But many of the priests and the Levites, and the elder men, heads of families, who had seen the former house on its foundation, and [who saw] this house with their eyes, wept with a loud voice: but the multitude shouted with joy to raise a song.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀pọ̀ lára àwọn àgbà àlùfáà àti àwọn ará Lefi àti àwọn olórí ìdílé, tí ó ti rí tẹmpili Olúwa ti tẹ́lẹ̀, wọ́n sọkún kíkorò nígbà tí wọ́n rí ìpìlẹ̀ tẹmpili Olúwa yìí tí wọ́n fi lélẹ̀, nígbà tí ọ̀pọ̀ kígbe fún ayọ̀.
13 And the people did not distinguish the voice of the glad shout from the voice of the weeping of the people: for the people shouted with a loud voice, and the voice was heard even from afar off.
