< Ezra 2 >

1 King Nebuchadnezzar’s [soldiers] had captured many [Israeli] people and taken them to Babylonia. [Many years later, ] some Israeli people returned to Judah. Some returned to Jerusalem, and some returned to [other places in] Judah. They went to the towns where their ancestors had lived. This is a list of the groups who returned.
Mugululi asi dunu bagohame da Ba: bilone soge fisili, Yelusaleme soge amola Yuda soge amoga buhagi. Ilia da ilia musa: moilaidafa amoga buhagi. Musa: Nebiuga: denese da amo mugululi asi dunu ilia sosogo fi lale, Ba: bilone sogega udigili hawa: hamomusa: mugululi oule asi.
2 The leaders of those groups were Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Seraiah, Reelaiah, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispar, Bigvai, Rehum, and Baanah. There were:
Ilia bisilua dunu da Selubabele, Yosiua, Nihemaia, Sila: ia, Liela: iya, Modigai, Bilisia: ne, Misiba, Bigifa: i, Lihame amola Ba: iana. Isala: ili dunu ilia da mugululi asi fisili, Isala: ili sogega buhagi, amo ilia sosogo fi amola idi da hagudu dedei diala.

56 Jaalah, Darkon, Giddel,
57 Shephatiah, Hattil, Pokereth-Hazzebaim, and Ami.
58 Altogether, there were 392 temple workers and descendants of Solomon’s servants who returned.
Debolo hawa: hamosu dunu amola Soloumane ea hawa: hamosu dunu amo iligaga fi da mugululi asi amo fisili, buhagi amo ilia idi huluane da 392.
59 There was another group who returned [to Judah] from Tel-Melah, Tel-Harsha, Kerub, Addan, and Immer [towns in Babylonia]. But they could not prove that they were descendants of [people who previously lived in] Israel.
60 This group included 652 people who were descendants of Delaiah, Tobiah, and Nekoda.
Dunu idi 652 amo ilia da Isala: ili sosogo fi amo Dila: iya fi, Doubaia fi amola Nigouda fi (ilia da musa: moilai amo Dele Mila, Dele Hasa, Sielabe, A:da: ne amola Imaia amo ganodini esalu) ilia amola da mugululi asi fisili, buhagi. Be ilia da Isala: ili dunu iligaga fidafa amo dafawane idili olelemu da hamedei. Ilia dio dedei da fisi dagoi.
61 Hobaiah’s clan, Hakkoz’s clan, and Barzillai’s clan also returned. Barzillai had married a woman who was a descendant of Barzillai from [the] Gilead [region], and he had taken for himself the name of his father-in-law’s clan.
62 The people in that group searched in the documents that had the names of the ancestors of all the clans, but these men’s names were not found. So they were not permitted do the work that priests did.
Amola gobele salasu fi eno da meloa dedei amo ilia da gobele salasudafa iligaga fi olelemu da hame gala, ilia dio da Haba: iya, Ha: gose amola Basila: iai. (Basila: iai gobele salasu fi ilia aowalali dunu da Basila: iai Gilia: de fi uda amo lai. E da ea aowa fi dio lai dagoi). Be amo dunu da ilia aowalali noga: le olelemu da hamedeiba: le, Isala: ili dunu da ili gobele salasu hamoma: ne hame ilegei.
63 The governor told them that they would need to ask a priest to consult Yahweh by [(casting/throwing] the sacred lots/stones [that had been marked]), to determine if those men were truly Israelis. When the priests did that, [if the stones showed that those men were Israelis], they would be permitted to eat the shares of the sacrifices that were given to the priests.
Yu eagene hina dunu da amo dunu ilia da Godema iasu ha: i manu amo mae moma: ne sia: i. Gobele salasu dunu da Ulimi igi amola Damini igi amo ea hou bu noga: le dawa: sea fawane amo ha: i manu da defea, e sia: i.
64 Altogether 42,360 Israeli people who returned to Judah.
Musa: mugululi asi dunu da Isala: ili sogega buhagi amo ilia idi huluane da - 42,360. Amola amo dunu ilia hawa: hamosu dunu (dunu amola uda) amo ilia idi da 7,337. Amola dunu amola uda gesami hea: su amo gesami liligi dusu idi da 200. Ohe fi ilia oule asi idi da – Hosi...736 Miule...245 Ga: mele...435 Dougi...6,720
65 There were also 7,337 servants and 200 musicians, both men and women, who returned.
66 The Israelis brought with them [from Babylonia] 736 horses, 245 mules,
67 435 camels, and 6,720 donkeys.
68 When they arrived at the temple of Yahweh in Jerusalem, some of the clan leaders gave money [for the supplies needed] to rebuild the temple at the place where the temple had been previously.
Mugululi asi dunu buhagi amo da Hina Gode Ea Debolo diasu Yelusaleme amo ganodini amoga doaga: loba, fi ouligisu dunu mogili da Debolo amo ea musa: sogebiga bu gaguma: ne, liligi hahawane udigili iasu.
69 They all gave as much money as they were able to give. Altogether they gave 61,000 gold coins, (6,250 pounds/3,000 kg.) of silver, and 100 robes for the priests.
Ilia gasa amola ilia labe amo defele hahawane iasu. Amola ilia iasu idi huluane da amo, Gouli...500 gilougala: me Silifa...2,800 gilougala: me Gobele salasu abula...100
70 Then the priests, the [other] descendants of Levi, the musicians, the temple guards, and some of the [other] people started to live in the towns and villages [near Jerusalem]. The rest of the people went to the other places in Israel where their ancestors had lived.
Gobele salasu dunu, Lifai dunu amola mogili eno dunu ilia da Yelusaleme amola gadenene sogebi amoga fi galu. Gesami hea: su dunu, Debolo sosodo aligisu dunu amola Debolo hawa: hamosu dunu da gadenene moilai amo ganodini fisu. Amola Isala: ili dunu eno huluane da ilia aowalali ilia moilai amo ganodini fi galu.
