< Ezra 3 >
1 But, when the seventh month was come, and the sons of Israel were in cities, then did the people gather themselves together as one man, unto Jerusalem.
Tukun malem itkosr, mwet Israel elos oakwuki in acn selos. Na elos nukewa toeni Jerusalem.
2 Then arose—Jeshua son of Jozadak and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and his brethren, and built the altar of the God of Israel, —to offer thereon ascending-sacrifices, as it was written in the law of Moses, the man of God.
Ac Joshua wen natul Jehozadak, oayapa mwet tol wial, ac Zerubbabel wen natul Shealtiel wi sou lal, elos tukeni sifilpa musai loang lun God lun Israel, tuh elos fah ku in orek kisa firir fac fal nu ke ouiya ma simla in Ma Sap lal Moses, mwet lun God.
3 So they settled the altar upon its stands, for, dread, was upon them, because of the peoples of the countries, —therefore caused they to go up thereon, ascending-sacrifices unto Yahweh, ascending-sacrifices for the morning and for the evening.
Mwet su foloko liki sruoh elos finne sangeng sin mwet muta fin acn ah, elos sifil pacna musaela loang in kisa fin acn se na ma oan we meet ah. Na elos sifilpa mutawauk in kisakin mwe kisa in lotutang ac mwe kisa in eku ke len nukewa.
4 And they kept the festival of booths, as it was written, —and the ascending-offering of each day upon its own day, by number, according to regulation, the matter of a day upon its day;
Elos akfulatye Kufwen Iwen Aktuktuk, fal nu ke ma oakwuk. Ke kais sie len elos sang mwe kisa fal nu ke ma oakwuki nu ke len sac.
5 and, afterwards, the continual ascending-sacrifice, and, on the new moons, and on all the appointed seasons of Yahweh, the hallowed things, —also for every one that volunteered a voluntary offering unto Yahweh.
Ac sayen ma inge, elos oru pac mwe kisa firir ma enenu in fonna kisakinyuk, ac mwe kisa ke Kufwa lun Malem Sasu ac ke toeni nukewa su mwet uh alu nu sin LEUM GOD, oayapa elos sang mwe sang ke insewowo nu sin LEUM GOD.
6 From the first day of the seventh month, began they to offer up ascending-sacrifices unto Yahweh, —but, the temple of Yahweh, had not had its foundation laid.
Mwet uh finne soenna mutawauk in musai Tempul, a ke len se emeet in malem se akitkosr elos mutawauk in orek kisa firir nu sin LEUM GOD.
7 And they gave silver, unto the masons and carpenters, —and food and drink and oil, unto them of Zidon and unto them of Tyre, to bring in cedar-trees out of the Lebanon, unto the sea of Joppa, according to the grant of Cyrus king of Persia unto them.
Mwet uh sang mani in moli mwet orekma ke eot ac mwet kamtu, ac elos sang mwe mongo, mwe nim, ac oil in olive tuh in supweyukla nu in siti Tyre ac Sidon, mwe ayaol nu ke sak cedar Lebanon me. Sak inge ac pahkinyuk ut meoa nu Joppa. Tokosra Fulat Cyrus lun Persia pa fuhlela tuh ma inge nukewa in orek.
8 Now, in the second year of their coming in unto the house of God, to Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and Jeshua son of Jozadak and the rest of their brethren—the priests and the Levites, and all that were come out of the captivity to Jerusalem, and stationed the Levites, of twenty years old and upwards, to preside over the work of the house of Yahweh.
Ouinge elos mutawauk orekma ke malem se akluo in yac se tukun elos foloko nu ke acn se Tempul tuh oan we Jerusalem. Zerubbabel, Joshua, ac mwet wialos, oayapa mwet tol, ac mwet Levi, aok mwet nukewa su folok liki sruoh nu Jerusalem, elos tukeni kasru ke orekma. Mwet Levi nukewa yac longoul matwa ku matu liki, pa itukyang in kol orekma in sifil musai Tempul uh.
9 So they took their station—even Jeshua, his sons and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, sons of Judah, as one man to preside over the doer of the work in the house of God, the sons of Henadad, their sons and their brethren, the Levites.
Jeshua mwet Levi, ac wen natul nukewa ac sou lalos, oayapa Kadmiel ac wen natul nukewa (elos ma in sou lal Hodaviah) elos tukeni kol orekma ke sifilpa musa lun Tempul. (Oasr pac kasreyuk nu selos sin mwet Levi in sou lal Henadad.)
10 And, when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of Yahweh, then the priests, enrobed, took their stand with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to offer praise unto Yahweh, after the instructions of David king of Israel.
Ke mwet musa elos mutawauk in oaki pwelung lun Tempul uh, mwet tol elos nokomang nuknuk in alu lalos, ac tu yen srisrngiyuk nu selos wi mwe ukuk in paolos, na mwet Levi in sou lal Asaph elos sruok cymbal natulos ac wi pac tuyak. Elos kaksakin LEUM GOD fal nu ke ma fwack nu selos tutafme in pacl lal Tokosra David me.
11 And, when they made responses in offering praise and in giving thanks unto Yahweh—For he is good, for, age-abiding, is his lovingkindness, upon Israel, then, all the people, shouted with a great shout, in offering praise unto Yahweh, over the laying of the foundation of the house of Yahweh.
Ke elos on ac kaksakin LEUM GOD, elos kalweni kas inge: “LEUM GOD El wo, ac lungse lal nu sin Israel oan ma pahtpat.” Mwet nukewa elos sala ke kuiyalos nufon, ac kaksakin LEUM GOD, mweyen orekma in oakiya pwelung lun Tempul uh srola.
12 But, many of the priests and the Levites and the ancestral chiefs, who were old men, that had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, were weeping with a loud voice, —many, however, shouting and rejoicing, with voice raised on high;
Mwet matu puspis sin mwet tol ac mwet Levi ac sifen sou, elos tuh liye Tempul se meet ah, na ke elos liye oakwuki lun pwelung ke Tempul se inge, elos wowoyak ac tung. A mwet saya su wi tukeni sac elos sasa ke engan.
13 so that the people could not distinguish the noise of the shout of joy, from the noise of the weeping of the people, —for, the people, did shout with a great shout, and, the noise, was heard afar off.
Wangin mwet ku in akilen inmasrlon wowo ke engan ac wowo ke tung, mweyen pusren ngisyak lalos orala pusra na lulap su ku in lohngyuk yen loessula.
