< Ezra 7 >
1 Now after these things, in the reign of Artaxerxes king of Persia, Ezra the son of Seraiah, the son of Azariah, the son of Hilkiah,
Bayan waɗannan abubuwa, a zamanin Artazerzes sarkin Farisa, sai Ezra ɗan Serahiya, ɗan Azariya, ɗan Hilkiya,
2 the son of Shallum, the son of Zadok, the son of Ahitub,
ɗan Shallum, ɗan Zadok, ɗan Ahitub,
3 the son of Amariah, the son of Azariah, the son of Meraioth,
ɗan Amariya, ɗan Azariya, ɗan Merahiyot,
4 the son of Zerahiah, the son of Uzzi, the son of Bukki,
ɗan Zerahiya, ɗan Uzzi, ɗan Bukki,
5 the son of Abishua, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the chief priest—
ɗan Abishuwa, ɗan Finehas, ɗan Eleyazar, ɗan Haruna babban firist.
6 this Ezra went up from Babylon. He was a skilled scribe in the law of Moses, which the LORD, the God of Israel, had given; and the king granted him all his request, according to the LORD his God’s hand on him.
Shi Ezra ɗin ya zo daga Babilon. Shi malami ne ya kuma san Dokar Musa sosai wadda Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya bayar. Sarki ya ba shi duk abin da ya roƙa, gama Ubangiji Allahnsa yana tare da shi.
7 Some of the children of Israel, including some of the priests, the Levites, the singers, the gatekeepers, and the temple servants went up to Jerusalem in the seventh year of Artaxerxes the king.
Waɗansu Isra’ilawa, haɗe da firistoci, da Lawiyawa, da mawaƙa, da masu tsaron ƙofofi, da masu aiki a haikali su ma suka zo Urushalima a shekara ta bakwai a zamanin mulkin sarki Artazerzes.
8 He came to Jerusalem in the fifth month, which was in the seventh year of the king.
Ezra ya iso Urushalima a wata na biyar na shekara ta bakwai na kama mulkin sarkin.
9 For on the first day of the first month he began to go up from Babylon; and on the first day of the fifth month he came to Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God on him.
Ya fara tafiyarsa daga Babilon a rana ta farko ga watan farko, ya kuma iso Urushalima a rana ta farko ga watan biyar, gama alherin Allahnsa yana tare da shi.
10 For Ezra had set his heart to seek the LORD’s law, and to do it, and to teach statutes and ordinances in Israel.
Gama Ezra ya miƙa kansa ga bincike da kuma kiyaye Dokar Ubangiji, da kuma koya wa Isra’ilawa dokoki da kuma umarnan Ubangiji.
11 Now this is the copy of the letter that King Artaxerxes gave to Ezra the priest, the scribe, even the scribe of the words of the LORD’s commandments, and of his statutes to Israel:
Ga wasiƙar da sarki Artazerzes ya ba Ezra wanda yake firist da kuma malami, mutumin da yake cike da sani game da dokoki da kuma umarnan Ubangiji wa Isra’ila.
12 Artaxerxes, king of kings, To Ezra the priest, the scribe of the law of the perfect God of heaven. Now
Artazerzes, sarkin sarakuna. Zuwa ga Ezra firist, malamin Dokar Allah na sama. Gaisuwa.
13 I make a decree that all those of the people of Israel and their priests and the Levites in my realm, who intend of their own free will to go to Jerusalem, go with you.
Yanzu ina ba da umarni cewa duk wani mutumin Isra’ilan da yake cikin mulkina, haɗe da firistoci, da Lawiyawa, da suke so su tafi tare da kai zuwa Urushalima za su iya tafiya.
14 Because you are sent by the king and his seven counselors to inquire concerning Judah and Jerusalem, according to the law of your God which is in your hand,
Sarki ne da mashawartansa guda bakwai suka aike ka don ka je ka ga halin da Yahuda da Urushalima suke ciki game da dokokin Allahnka, waɗanda suke a hannunka.
15 and to carry the silver and gold, which the king and his counselors have freely offered to the God of Israel, whose habitation is in Jerusalem,
Za ka kuma tafi da zinariya da azurfa waɗanda sarki da mashawartansa suka ba da kyautar yardar rai ga Allah na Isra’ila, wanda haikalinsa ke a Urushalima,
16 and all the silver and gold that you will find in all the province of Babylon, with the free will offering of the people and of the priests, offering willingly for the house of their God which is in Jerusalem.
haɗe da duk zinariya da azurfan da za ka iya samu a Babilon, da kuma duk bayarwar yardar rai daga mutane da firistoci, domin haikalin Allahnsu da yake a Urushalima.
17 Therefore you shall with all diligence buy with this money bulls, rams, and lambs with their meal offerings and their drink offerings, and shall offer them on the altar of the house of your God which is in Jerusalem.
Ka tabbata ka yi amfani da kuɗin nan don ka sayi bijimai, da raguna, da’yan raguna, da hadayu na gari, da na sha, ka kuma miƙa su a kan bagade na haikalin Allahnka a Urushalima.
18 Whatever seems good to you and to your brothers to do with the rest of the silver and the gold, do that according to the will of your God.
Sa’an nan kai da’yan’uwanka Yahudawa ku yi abin da kuka ga ya fi kyau da sauran zinariya da azurfa ɗin bisa ga nufin Allah.
19 The vessels that are given to you for the service of the house of your God, deliver before the God of Jerusalem.
Ka kai wa Allah na Urushalima duk kayan da aka ba ka amanarsu don yin sujada a haikalin Allahnka.
20 Whatever more will be needed for the house of your God, which you may have occasion to give, give it out of the king’s treasure house.
Duk kuma wani abin da ake bukata domin haikalin Allahnka, daga ɗakunan ajiya sarki za ka fitar da kuɗin.
21 I, even I, Artaxerxes the king, make a decree to all the treasurers who are beyond the River, that whatever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the law of the God of heaven, requires of you, it shall be done with all diligence,
Yanzu fa ni, Sarki Artazerzes, ina ba da umarni ga kowane ma’aji na Kewayen Kogin Yuferites su tanada duk abin da Ezra firist, wanda kuma yake malamin Dokar Allah na sama zai bukaci,
22 up to one hundred talents of silver, and to one hundred cors of wheat, and to one hundred baths of wine, and to one hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing how much.
har zuwa talenti ɗari na azurfa, da mudu ɗari na alkama, da garwa ɗari na ruwan inabi, da garwa ɗari na man zaitun, da kuma gishiri ba iyaka.
23 Whatever is commanded by the God of heaven, let it be done exactly for the house of the God of heaven; for why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons?
A yi duk abin da Allah na sama ya ce don haikalin Allah na sama, sai a yi shi da himma. Me zai sa a jawo wa sarki da’ya’yansa fushin Allah?
24 Also we inform you that it shall not be lawful to impose tribute, custom, or toll on any of the priests, Levites, singers, gatekeepers, temple servants, or laborers of this house of God.
Ku kuma san cewa, ba ku da ikon sa firistoci, da Lawiyawa, da mawaƙa, da masu tsaron ƙofofin haikali, da masu aiki a gidan Allah, ko waɗansu masu aiki a haikali su biya haraji, ko kuɗin shiga.
25 You, Ezra, according to the wisdom of your God that is in your hand, appoint magistrates and judges who may judge all the people who are beyond the River, who all know the laws of your God; and teach him who doesn’t know them.
Kai kuma Ezra, bisa ga hikimar da Allah ya ba ka, sai ka zaɓi mahukunta da alƙalai waɗanda za su zama masu yanke hukunci ga dukan mutanen Kewayen Kogin Yuferites, duk waɗanda suka san dokokin Allahnka, ka kuma koya wa duk waɗanda ba su san dokokin ba.
26 Whoever will not do the law of your God and the law of the king, let judgment be executed on him with all diligence, whether it is to death, or to banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment.
Ba shakka duk wanda bai yi biyayya da dokokin Allahnka ba, da kuma dokokin sarki ba dole a yanke masa hukuncin kisa, ko hukuncin kora, ko hukuncin raba shi da mallakarsa, ko kuma hukuncin kulle shi a kurkuku.
27 Blessed be the LORD, the God of our fathers, who has put such a thing as this in the king’s heart, to beautify the LORD’s house which is in Jerusalem;
Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji Allah na kakanninmu, ya taɓa zuciyar sarki don yă kawo ɗaukaka ga haikalin Allah a Urushalima ta wannan hanya.
28 and has extended loving kindness to me before the king and his counselors, and before all the king’s mighty princes. I was strengthened according to the LORD my God’s hand on me, and I gathered together chief men out of Israel to go up with me.
Wanda kuma ya sa na sami tagomashi a gaban sarki da mashawartansa, da kuma duk manyan masu muƙami nasa. Gama Ubangiji Allahna yana tare da ni, sai na sami ƙarfin hali na tattara shugabannin mutane daga Isra’ila, don mu tafi tare.
