< Ezra 4 >

1 Now when the adversaries of Judah and Benjamin heard that the children of the captivity were building the temple to the LORD God of Israel;
Yuda fi dunu amola Bediamini fi dunu ilia ha lai dunu da mugululi asi dunu da buhagili, Isala: ili Hina Gode Ea Debolo diasu gagubi nabi.
2 Then they came to Zerubbabel, and to the chief of the fathers, and said to them, Let us build with you: for we seek your God, as ye [do]; and we do sacrifice to him since the days of Esar-haddon king of Assur, who brought us up hither.
Amaiba: le, ilia da Selubabele amola Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu ilima asili, amane adole ba: i, “Ninia amola da Debolo diasu gagumusa: fidimu da defeala: ? Ninia Godema sia: ne gadosu da dilia Godema sia: ne gadosu amo defele sia: ne gadosa. Amola Asilia hina bagade Isaha: done da sia: beba: le ninia guiguda: misi, amo fa: no ninia da Godema gobele salasu hou huluane hamonana.”
3 But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua, and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel, said to them, Ye have nothing to do with us to build a house to our God; but we ourselves together will build to the LORD God of Israel, as king Cyrus the king of Persia hath commanded us.
Selubabele, Yosiua amola Isala: ili fi ouligisu dunu da ilima amane adole i, “Ninia da Hina Gode Ea Debolo diasu gagusia, eno fidisu dunu hame lamu. Ninisu amo Besia hina bagade Sailase amo ea sia: i defele, gagumu.”
4 Then the people of the land weakened the hands of the people of Judah, and troubled them in building,
Amalalu, dunu da musa: Isala: ili sogega esalu da Yu dunu beda: ma: ne gasa fi hamosu. Ilia da Yu dunu ilia Debolo gagumu hawa: hamosu hedofamusa: dawa: i galu.
5 And hired counselors against them, to frustrate their purpose, all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of Persia.
Ilia da Besia eagene dunu amo Yu dunu ilia Debolo gagusu hawa: hamosu hedofama: ne, hano suligili muni ilima i. Amo hou ilia da Sailase ea Besia soge ouligisia amola fa: no Da: liase da Besia soge ouligisia, amo esoha ilia da mae fisili hamosu.
6 And in the reign of Ahasuerus, in the beginning of his reign, they wrote [to him] an accusation against the inhabitants of Judah and Jerusalem.
Hina bagade amo Segesisi da Besia ouligisu hou lai dagoi. Ea ouligisu degabo laloba, dunu amo Yuda soge amola Yelusaleme ganodini esalu, ilima ha lai dunu da ilima fofada: musa: meloa dedene i.
7 And in the days of Artaxerxes wrote Bishlam, Mithredath, Tabeel, and the rest of their companions to Artaxerxes king of Persia, and the writing of the letter [was] written in the Syrian language, and interpreted in the Syrian language.
Fa: no, hina bagade eno amo Adasegesisi da Besia soge ouligisia, ha lai dunu amo Bisila: me, Mililida: de amola Da: ibia: le ilia da Adasegesisima meloa dedene i. Amo meloa ilia da A: lama: ia: ge sia: ga dedei. Idisia, ilia da bu Besia sia: amoga afadenema: ne sia: i.
8 Rehum the chancellor and Shimshai the scribe wrote a letter against Jerusalem to Artaxerxes the king in this sort:
Amola eagene hina dunu amo Lihame amola soge dedesu dunu amo Simisai, ela da Adasegesisi ema Yelusaleme ea hou olelemusa: meloa dedene i, amane,
9 Then [wrote] Rehum the chancellor, and Shimshai the scribe, and the rest of their companions; the Dianites, the Apharsathchites, the Tarpelites, the Apharsites, the Archevites, the Babylonians, the Susanchites, the Dehavites, [and] the Elamites,
“Lihame (eagene hina dunu), Simisai (soge dedesu dunu), ela fidisu dunu, fofada: su dunu amola ouligisu dunu eno huluane (amo huluane da musa: Ila: me soge moilai bai bagade amo Ilege, Ba: bilone amola Susa amoga misi) amola
10 And the rest of the nations whom the great and noble Asnapper brought over, and set in the cities of Samaria, and the rest [that are] on this side of the river, and at such a time.
dunu eno amo gasa bagade hina Asoba: niba: le da ilia moilaia mugululi, ilia da Samelia moilai bai bagade amola eno sogebi Guma: dini Iufala: idisi Soge amo ganodini fima: ne oule asi, da amo meloa dedene iaha.”
11 This [is] the copy of the letter that they sent to him, [even] to Artaxerxes the king: Thy servants the men on this side of the river, and at such a time.
Ilia da meloa agoane dedene i, “Ninia da di, hina bagade Adasegesisi, ninia da dia hawa: hamosu dunu Guma: dini Iufala: idisi soge amo ganodini esala, dima meloa dedene iaha.
12 Be it known to the king, that the Jews who came from thee to us are come to Jerusalem, building the rebellious and the noxious city, and have set up its walls, and joined the foundations.
Hina bagade! Di da Yelusaleme amoma doaga: i hou dawa: mu da defea. Yu dunu da dia soge eno amoga misini, Yelusaleme amo ganodini fili, ilia amo wadela: i amola hame nabasu moilai bai bagade amo bu gagulala. Ilia amo moilai bai bagade gagoi gagulala amola ea gagui da gadenenewane dagomu ba: sa.
13 Be it known now to the king, that, if this city shall be built, and the walls set up [again], [then] they will not pay toll, tribute, and custom, and [so] thou wilt endamage the revenue of the kings.
Hina bagade! Amo moilai bu gagusia amola amoea gagoi dagosea, Yu fi dunu da dima su muni iasu hou fisimu, amola dia su labe da ebelemu agoai ba: mu.
14 Now because we have maintenance from [the king's] palace, and it was not meet for us to see the king's dishonor, therefore have we sent and certified the king;
Di da nini huluane ouligisa. Amaiba: le, agoai hou doaga: mu ninia higa: i ba: mu. Ninia agoane dawa: ,
15 That search may be made in the book of the records of thy fathers: so wilt thou 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 destroyed.
di da dia fidisu dunu ilima ilia meloa dedei dia aowalali ilia dedei, amo ganodini hogoma: ne sia: ma. Di agoane hamosea, Yelusaleme soge dunu da eso huluane mae fisili, hame nabasu hou hamosu di da ba: mu. Ilia gasa fi hou hamobeba: le, hina bagade amola soge ouligisu dunu da se bagade nabi amola ili ouligimu gasa bagade ba: i. Amaiba: le, amo moilai bai bagade da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: i.
16 We certify the king that, if this city shall be built [again], and its walls set up, by this means thou wilt have no portion on this side of the river.
Amaiba: le ninia da agoane dawa: Ilia da amo moilai bai bagade amola ea gagoi bu gagusia, di hina bagade, da Guma: dini Iufala: idisi soge ouligimu hamedeiwane ba: mu.” Ilia da amo meloa Adasegesisi ema dedene i.
17 [Then] the king sent an answer to Rehum the chancellor, and [to] Shimshai the scribe, and [to] the rest of their companions that dwell in Samaria, and [to] the rest beyond the river, Peace, and at such a time.
Adasegesisi da ilima dabe meloa amane dedene i, “Dilia! Lihame (eagene hina dunu), Simisai (soge dedesu dunu) amola ela fidisu dunu Samelia soge amola Guma: dini Iufala: idisi soge amo ganodini esala. Asigi sia: sia: sa!
18 The letter which ye sent to us hath been plainly read before me.
Dilia nama meloa dedene iasi amo na sia: alofele iasu dunu da afadenene, nama idili i.
19 And I commanded, 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 in it.
Na sia: beba: le, na fidisu dunu da aowalali ilia meloa dedei amo hogolala ba: i. Dafawane! Musa: amola amo fa: no, Yelusaleme fi dunu da hina bagade ilia sia: hame nabasu, amola amo ganodini hame nabasu dunu amola nimi bagade dunu bagohame ba: su.
20 There have also been mighty kings over Jerusalem, who have ruled over all [countries] beyond the river; and toll, tribute, and custom, was paid to them.
Gasa bagade Ba: bilone hina dunu da Yelusaleme amola Guma: dini Iufala: idisi soge huluane ouligisu. Ilia da su (da: gisi) muni amo dunuma lasu.
21 Give ye now commandment to cause these men to cease, and that this city be not built, until [another] commandment shall be given from me.
Amaiba: le, amo dunuma ilia Yelusaleme bu gagusu go fisima: ne sia: ma. Na da bu gaguma: ne sia: sea fawane, ilima bu gaguma: ne sia: ma.
22 Take heed now that ye fail not to do this: why should damage grow to the hurt of the kings?
Ilia da na hou bu wadela: sa: besa: le, amo sia: hedolo adoma!” Adasegesisi da amo meloa dedene iasi.
23 Now when the copy of king Artaxerxes' letter [was] read before Rehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went up in haste to Jerusalem to the Jews, and made them to cease by force and power.
Sia: alofele iasu dunu da amo meloa Lihame amola Simisai amola ela fidisu dunu ilima idili i. Ilia da Yelusalemega hedolo asili, Yu dunu ilia moilai bai bagade gagusu logo hedofai dagoi.
24 Then ceased the work of the house of God which [is] at Jerusalem. So it ceased until the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.
Debolo diasu bu gagusu logo da hedofaiba: le, ilia da hame hawa: hamosu. Amalalu, hina bagade eno ea dio amo Da: liase da Besia soge ouligisu hou lai. E da ode aduna ouligilalu,
