Ezra 3
1 When the seventh month had come, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem.
A HIKI mai ka hiku o ka malama, a e noho ana na mamo a Iseraela ma na kulanakauhale, hoakoakoaia ae la na kanaka me he kanaka hookahi la ma Ierusalema.
2 Then Jeshua the son of Jozadak stood up with his brothers the priests and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and his relatives, and built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings on it, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
Alaila ku ae la o Iesua ke keiki a Iozadaka, a me kona mau hoahanau, na kahuna, a o Zerubabela ke keiki a Sealetiela, a me kona poe hoahanau, hana lakou i ke kuahu no ke Akua o ka Iseraela, e kaumaha aku i na mohaikuni maluna ona, e like me ka palapala ma ke kanawai o Mose ke kanaka no ke Akua.
3 In spite of their fear because of the peoples of the surrounding lands, they set the altar on its base; and they offered burnt offerings on it to the LORD, even burnt offerings morning and evening.
A kau aku la lakou i ke kuahu maluna o kona mau kahua, no ka mea, ua kau mai ka makau maluna o lakou no na kanaka o na aina e; a kaumaha aku maluna ona i na mohaikuni ia Iehova, i na mohaikuni no kakahiaka a no ke ahiahi.
4 They kept the feast of booths, as it is written, and offered the daily burnt offerings by number, according to the ordinance, as the duty of every day required;
A malama lakou i ka ahaaina kauhalelewa, e like me ka palapala, a kaumaha aku i ka mohaikuni no kela la keia la, me ka helu ana, e like me ka hana mau no kela la keia la.
5 and afterward the continual burnt offering, the offerings of the new moons, of all the set feasts of the LORD that were consecrated, and of everyone who willingly offered a free will offering to the LORD.
A mahope o ia mea, i ka mohaikuni hoomau, no na mahina hou a no na ahaaina a pau na Iehova i hoolaaia, a no na mea a pau i mohai oluolu aku ai i ka mohai aloha no Iehova.
6 From the first day of the seventh month, they began to offer burnt offerings to the LORD; but the foundation of the LORD’s temple was not yet laid.
Mai ka la mua o ka hiku o ka malama ko lakou hoomaka ana e kaumaha aku i na mohaikuni ia Iehova. Aka, o ka luakini o Iehova aole i hookumuia.
7 They also gave money to the masons and to the carpenters. They also gave food, drink, and oil to the people of Sidon and Tyre to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea, to Joppa, according to the grant that they had from Cyrus King of Persia.
A haawi aku la lakou i ke kala no ka poe kalai pohaku, a no ka poe paahana; a me ka ai hoi, a me ka mea inu, a me ka aila ua ko Zidona, a na ko Turo, i lawe mai lakou i na laau kedara mai Lebanona mai a ke kai o Iopa, e like me ka mea a Kuro ke alii o Peresia i ae mai ai ia lakou.
8 Now in the second year of their coming to God’s house at Jerusalem, in the second month, Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the rest of their brothers the priests and the Levites, and all those who had come out of the captivity to Jerusalem, began the work and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to have the oversight of the work of the LORD’s house.
A i ka lua o ka makahiki o ko lakou hele ana mai i ka hale o ke Akua ma Ierusalema, i ka lua o ka malama, i hoomaka ai o Zerubabela ke keiki a Sealetiela, a o Iesua ke keiki a Iozadaka, a me ke koena o ko lakou poe hoahanau na kahuna, a me ua Levi, a me ka poe a pau i hele mai, mai ke pio ana mai a Ierusalema; a hoonoho i na Levi, mai ka iwakalua o na makahiki a i keu aku, i nana lakou i ka hana o ka hale no Iehova.
9 Then Jeshua stood with his sons and his brothers, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, together to have the oversight of the workmen in God’s house: the sons of Henadad, with their sons and their brothers the Levites.
Ku pu ae la o Iesua me kana poe keiki, a me kona poe hoahanau, o Kademiela a me kana mau keiki, no na keiki a Iuda, e nana aku maluna o ka poe paahana ma ka hale o ke Akua; o na keiki hoi a Henadada, me ka lakou poe keiki, a me ko lakou mau hoahanau, o na Levi.
10 When the builders laid the foundation of the LORD’s temple, they set the priests in their vestments with trumpets, with the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the LORD, according to the directions of David king of Israel.
A i ka wa i hookumu ai ka poe hana hale i ka luakini o Iehova, hoonoho lakou i na kahuna i kahikoia me na pu, a me na Levi, na keiki a Asapa, me na kimehala, e hoolea aku ia Iehova, e like me ka mea a Davida ke alii o ka Iseraela i kauoha ai.
11 They sang to one another in praising and giving thanks to the LORD, “For he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever toward Israel.” All the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised the LORD, because the foundation of the LORD’s house had been laid.
A mele aku lakou me ka hoolea ana, a me ka hoomaikai ana ia Iehova; No ka mea, he maikai oia, a he mau loa kona aloha i ka Iseraela. A hooho ae la na kanaka a pau me ka hooho nui, i ko lakou hoolea ana ia Iehova no ka hookumu ana i ka hale o Iehova.
12 But many of the priests and Levites and heads of fathers’ households, the old men who had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice. Many also shouted aloud for joy,
Aka, nui na kahuna, a me na Levi, a me ka poe koikoi o na makua, o na mea kahiko, na mea i ike i ka hale mua, i ka hookumu ana o keia hale imua o ko lakou maka, auwe iho la lakou me ka leo nui; a nui no hoi ka poe i hooho me ka leo kiekie no ka olioli.
13 so that the people could not discern the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people; for the people shouted with a loud shout, and the noise was heard far away.
Nolaila aole i hiki i na kanaka ke hookaawale i ka leo o ka hooho olioli ana a me ka leo o ka uwe ana o na kanaka; no ka mea, ua hooho na kanaka me ka hooho nui, a ua loheia ka leo ma kahi loihi.
