< 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.
Ouinge Tokosra Fulat Darius el sapkin in sukok in ma simla ke sramsram matu su karinginyuk in acn Babylon.
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.
Tusruk, koneyukyak sie limlim in ma simusla in siti Ecbatana in acn Media, ma fahk ouinge:
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,
“In yac se meet ke Tokosra Cyrus el mutawauk in Tokosra Fulat, el sapkin tuh Tempul Jerusalem in sifil musaiyuk tuh in sie acn mwet uh ku in sang mwe sang lalos ac kisakin mwe kisa lalos we. Tempul sac in fit eungoul fulata ac fit eungoul sralupa.
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.
Musaiyen sinka uh in ouinge: fwilin sak se in oan fin fwilin eot tolu nukewa. Molin ma nukewa ac fah akfalyeyuk ke nien mani lun tokosra.
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.
Oayapa ahlu gold ac silver nukewa ma Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el tuh use nu Babylon liki Tempul Jerusalem ac folokinyukla nu yen fal in oan we in Tempul Jerusalem.”
6 Now Thathnai, governor beyond the river, Shethar-bozenai, and your companions the Apharsachites, who are beyond the river, be ye far from there:
Na Tokosra Fulat Darius el supwala topuk lal ouinge: “Nu sum, Tattenai, governor lun acn Roto-in-Euphrates, ac Shethar Bozenai ac mwet pwapa wiowos in acn Roto-in-Euphrates. “Kowos tuyak liki Tempul sacn
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.
ac nimet lusrong orekma kac an. Fuhlela governor lun Judah ac mwet kol lun mwet Jew in sifil musai Tempul lun God in acn na ma oan we meet ah.
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.
Inge, nga sapkin nu suwos tuh kowos in kasrelos sifil musaela. Molin ma ac orekmakinyuk an in sa na molla, ac in tuku ke mani lun tokosra, su ac itukla ke tax lun Roto-in-Euphrates, tuh orekma sacn in tia lusrongyukla.
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.
Len nu len kowos in aklohya in sang nu sin mwet tol in Jerusalem kutena ma elos fahk mu elos enenu: oana cow mukul fusr, ku sheep, ku sheep fusr mwe orek kisa firir nu sin God lun Kusrao, ku flao, sohl, wain ku oil in olive.
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.
Ma inge in orek tuh elos in ku in sang mwe kisa ma fal nu sin God lun Kusrao, ac elos in pre tuh Elan akinsewowoyeyu oayapa wen nutik.
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.
Nga tafwela pac sap soko inge tuh kutena mwet fin seakos ma nga sapkin, na in fifyak soko sak maspang lulap liki lohm sel, ac tetela sie muta, ac sang fakisya sasla manol. Na lohm sel fah orek oana sie yol in kutkut.
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.
Lela God su sulela tuh Jerusalem in acn se mwet uh in alu nu sel we uh, Elan sisla kutena tokosra ku mutanfahl su sikul ma sap se inge ac srike in kunausla Tempul sac. Nga, Darius, pa sapkin in ouinge. Ma sap luk fah arulana akosyuk.”
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.
Na Governor Tattenai, Shethar Bozenai, ac mwet fulat wialos elos oru ma nukewa oana tokosra fulat el sapkin.
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.
Mwet kol lun mwet Jew elos oru tuh orekma in musa ke Tempul in fahla arulana wo, ac mwet palu Haggai ac Zechariah eltal akkeyalos. Elos aksafyela Tempul fal nu ke ma God lun Israel El sapkin, ac oayapa ma sap sin tokosra fulat tolu lun Persia: Cyrus, Darius, ac Artaxerxes.
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.
Elos aksafyela Tempul ke len se aktolu in malem Adar, ke yac se akonkosr wacl Tokosra Fulat 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;
Na mwet tol, mwet Levi, ac mwet Israel nukewa su folok liki sruoh, elos kisaela Tempul ke engan na lulap.
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.
Elos kisakin cow mukul siofok, sheep luofoko, ac sheep fusr angfoko, na elos sang nani singoul luo tuh in mwe kisa ke ma koluk, kais soko nu ke sruf lun 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.
Elos oayapa oakiya orekma kunen mwet tol ac mwet Levi nu ke Tempul in Jerusalem, fal nu ke ma simusla in book lal Moses.
19 And the children of the exile prepared the passover-[sacrifice] on the fourteenth day of the first month.
Ke len se aksingoul akosr in malem se meet in yac tok ah, mwet su foloko liki sruoh elos akfulatye Kufwen Alukela.
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.
Mwet tol ac mwet Levi nukewa elos aknasnasyalos sifacna tuh elos in nasnas fal nu ke oakwuk lun alu lalos. Mwet Levi elos uniya kosro tuh in mwe kisa ke Kufwen Alukela ke mwet nukewa su foloko liki sruoh, ac ke mwet tol, ac kaclos sifacna.
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.
Mwet Israel nukewa su foloko liki sruoh elos mongo ke ma kisakinyukla. Oayapa mwet nukewa su sisla moul pegan lun mwet saya su muta in facl sac ac forla in wi pac alu nu sin LEUM GOD lun Israel, elos wi pac mongo kac.
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.
Ke len itkosr, elos engan ac akfulatye Kufwen Bread Tia Akpulol. Arulana yohk engan lalos ke sripen LEUM GOD El oru tuh Tokosra Fulat lun Assyria elan kulang nu selos, ac kasrelos ke orekma lalos in sifil musai Tempul lun God lun Israel.
