< Ezra 4 >

1 Now when the adversaries of Judah and Benjamin heard that the children of the captivity builded a temple unto the LORD, the God of Israel;
Hanki Judane Benzameni naga'mokizmi ha' vahe'mo'zama antahizama, kinafinti'ma atre'za e'naza vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe'mokizmi Anumzamofo mono noma ete eme negize nanekema nentahi'za,
2 then they drew near to Zerubbabel, and to the heads of fathers’ [houses], and said unto them, Let us build with you: for we seek your God, as ye do; and we do sacrifice unto him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assyria, which brought us up hither.
zamagra Zerubabelinte'ene Israeli naga nofite'ma ugagotama hu'naza vahete vu'za amanage hu'naze, Asiria kini ne' Esarhadoni'ma tavreno ama mopafima eme tantegetama mani'nonteti'ma eno meninte'ma eana, tamagrama nehazaza huta tamagri Anumzantera monora hunenteta, Kresramana vunentonanki, tatrenketa tamaza huta mono nona kimaneno.
3 But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua, and the rest of the heads of fathers’ houses of Israel, said unto them, Ye have nothing to do with us to build an house unto our God; but we ourselves together will build unto the LORD, the God of Israel, as king Cyrus the king of Persia hath commanded us.
Hianagi Zerubabeli'ene Jeshua'ene Israeli naga nofite'ma ugota hu'naza kva vahe'mo'zanena amanage hu'za zamasami'naze, tagri Ra Anumzamofo mono nona taza huta onkigahaze. Pesia kini ne' Sairusi'ma hurante'nea kante amage anteta, Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe'mota Anumzamofo mono nona tagrake'za kigahune.
4 Then the people of the land weakened the hands of the people of Judah, and troubled them in building,
Hagi anagema hazage'za ana mopafima ko'ma mani'naza vahe'mo'za, Juda vahera zamarimpa eri haviza hu naneke nehu'za, mono no onkisazegu zamazeri koro hu naneke agafa hu'za hu'naze.
5 and hired counsellors against them, to frustrate their purpose, all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of Persia.
Ana nehu'za Pesia kini ne' Sairusi'ma kinima manino egeno, Dariusi'ma agri noma erino kinima efore'ma hia knare'ma ege'za, Juda vahera antahintahi zami'za erizazmia eri savri hanazegu, Pesia kamani eri'za vahera masave hu kazigati zago zamiza zamavare'naze.
6 And in the reign of Ahasuerus, in the beginning of his reign, wrote they an accusation against the inhabitants of Judah and Jerusalem.
Hagi Ahasuerusi'ma agafa huno kinima mania knafina, ha' vahe'zamimo'za Judama nemaniza vahe'ene Jerusalema nemaniza vahekura mago havige avonkre'za kini ne' Ahasuerusina ami'naze.
7 And in the days of Artaxerxes wrote Bishlam, Mithredath, Tabeel, and the rest of his companions, unto Artaxerxes king of Persia; and the writing of the letter was written in the Syrian [character], and set forth in the Syrian [tongue].
Hanki henka Pesia kini ne' Artserksisi'ma kinima mania knafina, Bislamu'ma Mitredati'ma Tabeli'ene, zamagranema magokama eri'zama eneriza naga'enenki hu'za, kini ne' Artserksisina mago avonkremi'naze. Ana avoma kre'nazana Aramu zamagerupi kre'nage'za, hamprima amiza vahe'mo'za, Pesia vahe'mokizmi zamagerupi rekrahe humi'naze.
8 Rehum the chancellor and Shimshai the scribe wrote a letter against Jerusalem to Artaxerxes the king in this sort:
Hagi ana mopama ugagota huno kegavama hu'nea gavana ne' Rehumu'ene avoma kre eri'zama eneria ne' Simsaikea Jerusalema nemaniza vahe'ma keagama huzmante avona amanage huke kre atrakeno Pesia kini ne' Artserksisintega vu'ne.
9 then [wrote] Rehum the chancellor, 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,
Nagra gavana kva ne' Rehumu'nane, avoma kre eri'zama eneria ne' Simsai'ene, kema refkohu vahe'ene mago'a kagri eri'za vahe'ma tagranema eri'zama eneriza vahe'ene, Ereki vahe'ma Babiloni mopafima nemaniza vahe'ene, Elamu vahe'ma Susa ran kumate'ma nemaniza vahe'ene,
10 and the rest of the nations whom the great and noble Osnappar brought over, and set in the city of Samaria, and in the rest [of the country] beyond the river, and so forth.
ko'ma hanavenentake kini ne' Asurbanipali'ma mago'a vahe'ma zamavareno Sameria ran kumapima eme zamantege'zama nemaniza vahe'ene, Yufretisi timofo kantu kazigama nemaniza vahe'mo'zane, ama avona kre atronkeno kagritega nevie.
11 This is the copy of the letter that they sent unto Artaxerxes the king; Thy servants the men beyond the river, and so forth.
Hanki anama kremi'naza avona amanage hu'za kremi'naze, Kini ne' Artserksisiga kagri eri'zama eneruna vahe'ma Yufretisi timofo kantu kazigama nemanuna vahe'mota musenkea atrenegantone.
12 Be it known unto the king, that the Jews which came up from thee are come to us unto Jerusalem; they are building the rebellious and the bad city, and have finished the walls, and repaired the foundations.
Kinimoka amana nanekea antahio, Juda vahe'ma kagri kumatmimpima mani'nareti'ma atre'za aza vahe'mo'za ko'ma Jerusalemi kumapima mani'ne'za kema nontahi'za, havi zmavu'avazama hu'naza vahe'mo'za e'za Jerusalemi ran kumapina nona eme ki'naze. Noma azeri oti'za tra'ama kivagama nere'za, ku'ma kegina hago huvagare'za nehaze.
13 Be it known now unto the king, that, if this city be builded, and the walls finished, they will not pay tribute, custom, or toll, and in the end it will endamage the kings.
E'ina hu'negu kinimoka amagea antahio, ama ana vahe'mo'za Jerusalemi ran kuma'ma keginama huvagaresu'za takisi zagoa onkamigahaze. Ana hanageno'a zagoma nentana nompina zagoa omnena zagogura atupa hugahane.
14 Now because we eat the salt of the palace, and it is not meet for us to see the king’s dishonour, therefore have we sent and certified the king;
Kagrama maka zampima tazama nehana zanku tagesa nentahita, vahe'mo'zama kagri'ma kagefenkamima atre'zankura tavenosigeta ana kazigati kinimoka amana nanekea negasamune.
15 that search may be made in the book of the records of thy fathers: so shalt thou find in the book of the records, and know that this city is a rebellious city, and hurtful unto kings and provinces, and that they have moved sedition within the same of old time: for which cause was this city laid waste.
Kafahe'za ko'ma tro hu'naza zama krente'naza avontafepima kesanana, Jerusalema nemaniza vahe'mo'za kea ontahi vahe mani'neza, kini vahera ha renezmantazage'za, e'i ana zamavuzmava zanku kumazmia eme eri havizantfa hageno vahera omanitfa hu'naza kuma me'ne.
16 We certify the king that, if this city be builded, and the walls finished, by this means thou shalt have no portion beyond the river.
E'ina hu'negu kinimoka ama'na nanekea negasamune, zamagrama Jerusalemi ran kuma'ma eriso'ema nehu'za, kuma keginama huvagama resnagenka, Yufretisi ran timofo kantu kazigama me'nea kumatmina mago'ene kegava osugahane.
17 [Then] sent the king an answer unto Rehum the chancellor, and to Shimshai the scribe, and to the rest of their companions that dwell in Samaria, and in the rest [of the country] beyond the river, Peace, and so forth.
Hanki kinimo'ma ana avoma keteno'a, amanage huno nona'a avona kre atre'ne. Kavana ne' Rehumugane avontafe'ma kre eri'zama eneria ne' Simsaigane Sameriama mani'ne'za eri'zama zamazama nehaza vahe'ene, Yufretisi rantimofo kantu kazigama nemaniza vahera musenke atreramantoe.
18 The letter which ye sent unto us hath been plainly read before me.
Hanki tamagrama kre atre'naza avona nagri navure hamprite'za rekrahe hazage'na antahi'noe.
19 And I decreed, and search hath been made, and it is found that this city of old time hath made insurrection against kings, and that rebellion and sedition have been made therein.
Anama hute'na eri'za vahe huge'za, korapa'ma fore'ma hu'nea zama krente'naza avontafepima hake'zama ke'nazana, ko'ma maniza enazaregatira kini vahe'mofo kema ontahino zamagorgama omani zamavu'zmava zamo'a meno e'nea vahe mani'naze. Hankino meninena tamagerfa huno havi vaheke ana kumapina avite'naze.
20 There have been mighty kings also over Jerusalem, which have ruled over all [the country] beyond the river; and tribute, custom, and toll, was paid unto them.
Hanki korapara hankave kini vahe'mo'za Jerusalemi kumara kegava nehu'za, Yufretisi ran timofo kantu kazigama me'nea kumatmina maka kva huzmante'nage'za, ruzante ruzante takisi zagoa zami'naze.
21 Make ye now a decree to cause these men to cease, and that this city be not builded, until a decree shall be made by me.
E'ina hu'negu ana vahera hanavetita zamasaminke'za Jerusalemi rankuma'ma eri oti'zama negi'za zana atre'za amne mani'nesage'na, nagrake hu izo huge, i'o hu'na anazantera hugahue.
22 And take heed that ye be not slack herein: why should damage grow to the hurt of the kings?
Hanki tamarga ame huta vutma ome ke hinke'za ana eri'zana e'ori atreho. Na'ankure tamagrama anama osnage'zama, zamagrama ome knare'ma hanageta tagra kegava huzmantegara osugahune.
23 Then when the copy of king Artaxerxes’ letter was read before Rehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went in haste to Jerusalem unto the Jews, and made them to cease by force and power.
Hanki kini ne' Artserksisi'ma krema atre'nea avona eri'za vu'za, gavana ne' Rehumune, avontafe kre eri'zama eneria ne' Simsainte'ene, magoka eri'zama eneriza vahete'ene ana avona ome hamprizami'naze. Anama hazage'za ha'zana eri'ne'za ame hu'za Jerusalemi vu'za Juda vahemota nona onkita atreho hu'za hanaveti'za ome huzmante'naze.
24 Then ceased the work of the house of God which is at Jerusalem; and it ceased unto the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.
Anante Juda vahe'mo'za Ra Anumzamofo mono noma Jerusalema negiza eri'zana e'ori'za atrageno me'no eno, Pesia kini ne' Dariusi'ma kinima manino egeno nampa 2ma hia kafure ehanati'ne.
