< Ezra 6 >

1 Then gave king Darius an order, that they should make search in the house of the books, where the treasures were laid up there in Babylon.
Eka Ruoth Darius nochiwo chik, kendo neginono e kuonde kano gik machon e kar keno man Babulon.
2 And there was found at Achmetha, in the castle that is in the province of Media, a roll, and therein was thus written: A record.
Karatas moban noyudi e kama oger motegno mar gengʼo wasigu mar Ekbatana e gwengʼ Media, kendo ma e gima nondik kuome: Chenro mar gima biro:
3 In the first year of king Cyrus, king Cyrus gave an order concerning the house of God at Jerusalem, Let the house be built, the place where they used to offer sacrifices, and let its foundations be strongly laid: its height shall be sixty cubits, its breadth sixty cubits,
E higa mokwongo mar loch mar Ruoth Sairas, ruoth nochiwo chik kuom hekalu mar Nyasaye man Jerusalem kama. We hekalu ger kendo kaka kar chiwo misango, kendo we mise mare keti. Nyaka obedi fut piero aboro gaboro gi nus e bor mare kendo fut piero aboro gaboro e lach mare,
4 With three rows of heavy stones, and a row of new timber; and let the expenses be given out of the king's house.
kod migawo adek mag kite mochwe kadhi malo gi migawo achiel mag bepe mochungi. Chudo margi mondo chul gi keno moa ka ruoth.
5 And also let the golden and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took away out of the temple which is in Jerusalem, and brought unto Babylon, be restored, and brought back unto the temple which is in Jerusalem, every one to its place, and let them be put in the house of God.
Bende, gigo mag dhahabu gi fedha mag od Nyasaye, mane Nebukadneza okawo koa e hekalu mar Jerusalem mi okelo Babulon, nyaka duog kargi e hekalu man Jerusalem; nyaka duog-gi e kar keno e od Nyasaye.
6 Now Thathnai, governor beyond the river, Shethar-bozenai, and your companions the Apharsachites, who are beyond the river, be ye far from there:
Koro in, Tatenai, jatelo mar Yufrate, kod Shetha-Bozenai kaachiel gi un, jotelo wetegi mar gwengʼno, suduru mabor gi kanyo.
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 on its site.
Kik uketh tich hekaluni mar Nyasaye. We jatend jo-Yahudi kod jodong jo-Yahudi oger od Nyasaye e kare.
8 And by me is the order given what ye shall do to the elders of these Jews for the building of this house of God, that out of the king's property, arising out of the tax beyond the river, the expenses shall forthwith be given unto these men, that they be not hindered.
Kuom mano, achiwo chik mar gima onego itimne jodong jo-Yahudi e gedo mar odni mar Nyasaye: Gigo ma jogi otiyogo nyaka chul duto koa e keno mar ka ruoth, moa e pesa mochoki kuom Yufrate, mondo omi tich kik chungʼ.
9 And what they have need of, both young bullocks, and rams, and lambs, for the burnt-offerings unto the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the requirement of the priests who are a Jerusalem, shall be given unto them day by day, without fail.
Gimoro amora midwaro kaka nyirwedhi, imbe, nyiimbe mar misango miwangʼo pep ne Nyasach polo, kod ngano, chumbi, divai gi mo, kaka okwa gi jodolo man Jerusalem nyaka migi pile ma ok olewo,
10 That they may offer sacrifices of sweet savors unto the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king and of his sons.
mondo omi gichiw misengini ma moro Nyasach polo kendo olam ne ruoth gi yawuote obed gi ngima maber.
11 Also is by me the order given, that if any man should alter this command, timber shall be pulled down from his house, and being set up, he shall be hanged thereon; and his house shall be made a dunghill for this.
Ewi mano, achiwo chik ni ka ngʼato oketho chikni, to nogol yiend tado mar ode mi gur piny kendo tweye e yien-no.
12 And may the God that causeth his name to dwell there cast down every king and people that will stretch forth their hand to alter, to destroy this house of God which is in Jerusalem. I Darius have given the order: let it be done speedily.
Mad Nyasaye, mosemiyo Nyinge olandore ka, lok ruoth moro amora kata joma tingʼo bedegi malo mondo olok chikni kata oketh hekaluni man Jerusalem. An, Darius asegolo chik, kendo chikni nyaka chopi ma ok orem.
13 Then did Thathnai the, governor on this aide of the river, Shethar-bozenai, and their companions, in accordance with what king Darius had sent, act in this manner speedily.
To kuom chik mane Ruoth Darius ooro, Tatenai, jatend Yufrate, kod Shetha-Bozenai gi joma negitiyogo kanyakla notimo kamano kuom tangʼ mathoth.
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 completed it, according to the order of the God of Israel, and according to the order of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes the king of Persia.
Omiyo jodong jo-Yahudi nodhi nyime gi gedo kendo odhi maber e bwo yalo mar Hagai janabi gi Zekaria, nyakwar Ido. Negitieko gero hekalu kaluwore gi chik mar Nyasach Israel kod chike Sairas, Darius gi Artaksases, ruodhi Pasia.
15 And this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of king Darius.
Hekalu notieki gero e odiechiengʼ mar adek mar dwe mar Adar, e higa mar auchiel mar loch Ruoth Darius.
16 Then celebrated the children of Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the exile, the dedication of this house of God with joy;
Eka jo-Israel, ma gin jodolo, jo-Lawi kod joma moko mane oa e twech notimo nyasi mar gwedho od Nyasaye gi ilo.
17 And they offered for the dedication of this house of God one 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.
Kane gigwedho od Nyasaye negichiwo rwedhi mia achiel, imbe mia ariyo, nyithi rombe machwo mia angʼwen to kaka misango mar golo richo ne Israel, negichiwo diek apar gariyo machwo, moro ka moro ni dhout Israel.
18 And they stationed the priests in their orders, and the Levites in their divisions, for the service of God, which is in Jerusalem, as it is written in the book of Moses.
Kendo negiketo jodolo kuondegi kod jo-Lawi e migepe mag-gi ne tich Nyasaye e Jerusalem, kaluwore gi gima ondikie Kitap Musa.
19 And the children of the exile prepared the passover-[sacrifice] on the fourteenth day of the first month.
E odiechiengʼ mar apar gangʼwen mar dwe mokwongo, joma notwe notimo nyasi mar Pasaka.
20 For the priests and the Levites had purified themselves, as one man were all of them clean; and they slaughtered the passover-sacrifice for all the children of the exile, and for their brethren the priests, and for themselves.
Jodolo gi jo-Lawi nosepwodhore giwegi kendo giduto negiikore mapoth ne nyasi. Jo-Lawi noyangʼo nyarombo mar Pasaka ne joma noa e twech duto, ne owetegi ma jodolo kod gin giwegi.
21 And then did the children of Israel, who were returned out of the exile, and all such as had separated themselves unto them from the uncleanness of the nations of the earth, to seek the Lord the God of Israel, eat thereof.
Omiyo jo-Israel mane oa e twech nochamo Pasakano, kanyakla gi jogo duto mano ngʼanyone timbe mochido mag ogendini mamoko modak machiegni kodgi mondo omi gidwar Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel.
22 And they celebrated the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy; for the Lord had made them joyful, and had turned the heart of the king of Asshur toward them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel.
Kuom ndalo abiriyo, negitimo Nyasi mar Makati ma ok oketie thowi gi ilo, nikech Jehova Nyasaye nosepongʼogi gi ilo kuom loko pach ruodh Asuria, mondo omi nokonygi e tich manie od Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel.
