Te vaengah tonghma Haggai neh tonghma Iddo capa Zekhariah te tonghma rhoi. Amih rhoi tah a soah Israel Pathen ming a phuk thil Judah neh Jerusalem kah Yahudi tonghma rhoek ni.
2 Then they arose Zerubbabel [the] son of Shealtiel and Jeshua [the] son of Jozadak and they began to build [the] house of God which [is] in Jerusalem and [were] with them (prophets the *Q(k)*) of God supporting them.
Te vaengah Shaeltiel capa Zerubbabel neh Jozadak capa Jeshua te thoo tih Jerusalem kah Pathen im sak ham te a tong uh. Pathen tonghma rhoek khaw amih rhoi taengah om tih amih rhoi te a bom uh.

Tedae amih kah Pathen mik loh Yahudi a hamca rhoek a om thil dongah Darius taengla hlangcal pawk tih te ham te ca a mael hlan hil amih te paa sak pawh.
6 copy of Letter the which he sent Tattenai - [the] governor of [the] region beyond river the and Shethar-Bozenai and associates his officials the who [were] in [the] region beyond river the to Darius king the.

9 Then we asked to elders the these as follows we said to them who? did he make for you a decree house the this to build and structure the this to finish.
A hamca rhoek te ka dawt tangloeng bal tih amih te, ‘He im sak ham neh imbang he coeng ham nangmih taengah saithainah aka pae te unim?’ ka ti uh.
10 And also names their we asked (to them *LA(bh)*) to make known to you that we will write [the] name of men the who [are] at heads their.

11 And as follows word the they sent back to us to say we they [are] servants his of [the] God of heavens the and earth the and [we are] building house the which it was built from [the] former time of this years many and a king of Israel great he built it and he finished it.
Tedae ol te kaimih taengla ham mael uh tih amamih te, ‘Kaimih tah vaan neh diklai Pathen kah a tueihyoeih rhoek ni. Im a sak he hlamat kum a yet lamloh sak tangtae om coeng. Israel kah manghai boeilen loh a sak tih a coeng.
12 But from that they enraged fathers our [the] God of heavens the he gave them in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon (Chaldean the *Q(k)*) and house the this he destroyed it and people the he took into exile to Babylon.
Tedae a pa rhoek loh vaan Pathen te a veet uh lamloh amih te Khalden kah Babylon manghai Nebukhadnezzar kut ah a paek. Te vaengah im he a khaih tih pilnam he Babylon la a khuen.
13 Nevertheless in year one of Cyrus king the of Babylon Cyrus king the he made a decree [the] house of God this to build.
Babylon manghai Cyrus kah kum ah tah manghai Cyrus loh Pathen im he sak hamla saithainah a paek.
14 And also vessels the of [the] house of God of gold and silver which Nebuchadnezzar he had brought out from temple the which [was] in Jerusalem and he carried them to temple the of Babylon he brought out them Cyrus king the from temple the of Babylon and they were given to Sheshbazzar name his whom governor he had made him.

15 And he said to him - (these *Q(K)*) vessels the take! go! deposit! them in temple the which [is] in Jerusalem and [the] house of God let it be built on place its.
Te phoeiah anih te, “Hnopai he khuen lamtah cet laeh. Te Jerusalem kah bawkim ah khueh laeh. Pathen im khaw amah hmuen ah sa saeh,” a ti nah.

Sheshbazzar cet tangloeng tih Jerusalem kah Pathen im te khoengim a tloeng. Te lamlong tah tahae hil a sak uh dae coeng uh pawh.
