< Ezra 4 >
1 Now when the adversaries of Judah and Benjamin heard that the people from the exile were building a temple to the LORD, the God of Israel;
Sa’ad da abokan gāban Yahuda da na Benyamin suka ji cewa waɗanda suka dawo daga bauta suna gina haikalin Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila
2 then they drew near to Zerubbabel, and to the heads of ancestral houses, and said to them, "Let us build with you; for we seek your God, as you do; and we sacrifice to him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assyria, who brought us up here."
sai suka zo wurin Zerubbabel da kuma wurin shugabannin iyalai, suka ce, “Bari mu taimake ku ginin domin mu ma muna addu’a ga Allahnku yadda kuke yi, muna miƙa masa hadaya tun lokacin Esar-Haddon sarkin Assuriya wanda ya kawo mu nan.”
3 But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua, and the rest of the heads of ancestral houses of Israel, said to them, "You have nothing to do with us in building a house to our God; but we ourselves together will build to the LORD, the God of Israel, as king Koresh the king of Persia has commanded us."
Amma Zerubbabel, Yeshuwa, da sauran shugabannin iyalai na Isra’ila suka amsa suka ce, “Ba za ku sa hannu cikin gina wa Allahnmu haikali ba, mu kaɗai za mu gina wa Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila gini kamar yadda Sarki Sairus, sarkin Farisa, ya umarce mu.”
4 Then the people of the land weakened the hands of the people of Judah, and troubled them in building,
Sai mutanen da suke zama a wurin suka fara yin ƙoƙari su sa mutanen Yahuda su karaya, suka sa su ji tsoron ci gaba da ginin.
5 and hired counselors against them, to frustrate their purpose, all the days of Koresh king of Persia, even until the reign of Daryavesh king of Persia.
Suka yi hayar mashawarta don su ga cewa sun ɓata ƙoƙarinsu dukan kwanakin mulkin Sairus sarkin Farisa har zuwa kwanakin mulkin Dariyus sarkin Farisa.
6 In the reign of Achashyerosh, in the beginning of his reign, they wrote an accusation against the inhabitants of Judah and Jerusalem.
A farkon mulkin Zerzes, sai abokan gāba suka kawo ƙarar mutanen Yahuda da na Urushalima.
7 In the days of Artachshasta wrote Bishlam, Mithredath, Tabeel, and the rest of his companions, to Artachshasta king of Persia; and the writing of the letter was written in Aramaic, and set forth in the Aramaic language.
A zamanin Artazerzes sarkin Farisa kuma, sai Bishlam, da Mitredat, da Tabeyel, da sauran abokansu suka rubuta wasiƙa zuwa ga Artazerzes. Aka rubuta wasiƙar da harufan Arameyik, aka kuma fassara ta a yaren Arameyik.
8 Rehum the chancellor and Shimshai the scribe wrote a letter against Jerusalem to Artachshasta the king as follows:
Rehum shugaban rundunar soja, da Shimshai marubuci, suka rubuta wasiƙar a kan Urushalima zuwa ga sarki Artazerzes, suka ce.
9 [From] Rehum the commander, and Shimshai the scribe, and the rest of their companions, the Dinaites, and the Apharsathchites, the Tarpelites, the Apharsites, the Archevites, the Babylonians, the Shushanchites, the Dehaites, the Elamites,
Rehum shugaban sojoji, da Shimshai marubuci, da sauran abokansu, wato, alƙalai, da masu riƙe da muƙamai daga Farisa, Uruk da Babilon, mutanen Elam da na Shusha,
10 and the rest of the nations whom the great and noble Asnappar brought over, and set in the cities of Samaria, and in the rest of the country beyond the River.
da sauran mutane waɗanda mai girma Osnaffar ya kwaso, ya zaunar da su cikin birnin Samariya da sauran wurare na Kewayen Kogin Yuferites.
11 This is the copy of the letter that they sent to Artachshasta the king: Your servants the men beyond the River. And now,
(Ga abin da suka rubuta.) Zuwa ga sarki Artazerzes. Daga bayinka, mutanen Kewayen Kogin Yuferites.
12 be it known to the king, that the Jews who came up from you have come to us to Jerusalem; they are building the rebellious and wicked city, and have finished the walls, and repaired the foundations.
Ya kamata sarki ya san cewa Yahudawan da suka hauro wurinmu daga wurinka, sun je Urushalima suna sāke gina wannan mugun birni mai tawaye. Suna sāke gyara katangar, suna kuma gyara harsashin katangar.
13 Be it known now to the king that if this city is built, and the walls finished, they will not pay tribute, custom, or toll, and in the end it will be hurtful to the kings.
Ya kamata fa, sarki ya san cewa in aka sāke gina wannan birni duk da katangar birnin, mutanen birnin ba za su dinga biyan haraji, da kuɗin shiga, da na fitar da kaya ba, wannan zai sa aljihun masarauta yă bushe.
14 Now because we eat the salt of the palace, and it is not appropriate for us to see the king's dishonor, therefore have we sent and informed the king;
Tun da yake muna ƙarƙashin fada, bai kyautu mu bari a rena sarki ba, Saboda haka muke sanar da sarki,
15 that search may be made in the book of the records of your fathers: so you shall find in the book of the records, and know that this city is a rebellious city, and hurtful to kings and provinces, and that they have moved sedition within the same of old time; for which cause was this city laid waste.
domin a bincika a littattafan tarihin kakanninka. Za ka ga cewa wannan birni mai tawaye ne. Tun daga zamanin dā wannan birnin yana ba sarakuna da yankuna damuwa. Wannan ne ya sa aka ragargazar da birnin.
16 We inform the king that, if this city be built, and the walls finished, by this means you shall have no portion beyond the River.
Muna sanar da sarki cewa in har aka sāke gina wannan birnin da katangarsa, zai zama ka rasa kome a gefen Kewayen Kogin Yuferites ke nan.
17 Then the king sent an answer to Rehum the chancellor, and to Shimshai the scribe, and to the rest of their companions who dwell in Samaria, and in the rest of the country beyond the River: Peace, and so forth.
Sarki ya aika da wannan amsa. Zuwa ga Rehum shugaban sojoji, Shimshai marubuci da kuma sauran abokansu waɗanda suke zama a Samariya da kuma sauran wurare a Kewayen Kogin Yuferites. Gaisuwa.
18 The letter which you sent to us has been plainly read before me.
An karanta, an kuma fassara mini wasiƙar da kuma aika.
19 I decreed, and search has been made, and it is found that this city of old time has made insurrection against kings, and that rebellion and sedition have been made in it.
Na ba da umarni aka kuma yi bincike, aka tarar cewa wannan birni ya daɗe yana yi wa sarakuna tawaye, an yi tashin hankali a birnin.
20 There have been mighty kings also over Jerusalem, who have ruled over all the country beyond the River; and tribute, custom, and toll, was paid to them.
Urushalima ta yi sarakuna masu iko sosai waɗanda suka yi mulkin Kewayen Kogin Yuferites gaba ɗaya, an kuma biya masu haraji, da kuɗin shiga da na fita na kaya.
21 Make a decree now to cause these men to cease, and that this city not be built, until a decree shall be made by me.
Saboda haka sai ku ba da umarni yanzu cewa mutanen su daina wannan aiki sai lokacin da na ba da umarni.
22 Take heed that you not be slack herein: why should damage grow to the hurt of the kings?
Ku tabbata ka ɗauki wannan da muhimmanci. Don me za a bari wannan abu yă zama abin damuwa ga sarauta?
23 Then when the copy of king Artachshasta's letter was read before Rehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went in haste to Jerusalem to the Jews, and made them to cease by force and power.
Da gama karanta wasiƙar sarki Artazerzes wa Rehum da Shimshai marubuci, da abokansu, sai suka yi sauri suka je wurin Yahudawa a Urushalima, suka hana su aikin ƙarfi da yaji.
24 Then ceased the work of God's house which is at Jerusalem; and it ceased until the second year of the reign of Daryavesh king of Persia.
Saboda haka aikin a gidan Allah a Urushalima ya tsaya cik sai a shekara ta biyu ta mulkin Dariyus sarkin Farisa.
