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.
Hla rhih a pha vaengah tah khopuei kah Israel ca rhoek khaw Jerusalem ah pilnam neh hlang pakhat bangla tingtun uh.
2 Then Yeshua 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 Torah of Moses the man of God.
Te vaengah Jozadak capa Jeshua neh a manuca khosoih rhoek, Shealtiel capa Zerubbabel neh a manuca rhoek tah thoo uh tih Pathen kah hlang, Moses kah olkhueng dongah a daek bangla, a soah hmueihhlutnah nawn hamla Israel Pathen kah hmueihtuk te a suem uh.
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.
Khohmuen pilnam lamloh amih taengah mueirhih la om cakhaw a tungkho ah hmueihtuk a suem uh. Te phoeiah a soah BOEIPA kah hmueihhlutnah te khuen tih hlaem neh mincang kah hmueihhlutnah la a nawn uh.
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 daek bangla pohlip khotue te a saii uh. Te vaengah a hnin, hnin kah olthui laitloeknah bangla a hnin, hnin kah hmueihhlutnah khaw a tarhing neh a khueh.
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.
Sainoek hmueihhlutnah a hnukah khaw hlasae ham neh BOEIPA kah a ciim khoning boeih ham, BOEIPA taengah kothoh aka puhlu boeih ham khaw a khuehuh.
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.
Hla rhih kah hnin at lamloh BOEIPA taengah hmueihhlutnah nawn ham a tong uh dae BOEIPA kah bawkim tah suen hlan.
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.
Te dongah tangka te lungto aka dae taeng neh kutthai taengah a paek uh. Caak neh buhkoknah khaw, situi khaw Sidoni taeng neh Tyre taengah a paekuh. Amih te tah Persia manghai Cyrus kah ngaihpueinah bangla Lebanon lamkah lamphai thing te Joppa tuipuei hil aka puen la omuh.
8 Now in the second year of their coming to God’s house at Jerusalem, in the second month, Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, Yeshua 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 kum bae dongah tah amih te Jerusalem kah Pathen im la pawk uh. A hla bae dongah Shealtiel capa Zerubbabel, Jozadak capa Jeshua, a boeinaphung kah a coih khosoih neh Levi rhoek, tamna lamkah aka mael Jerusalem boeih loh a tong uh. Te phoeiah tongpaca kum kul neh a so hang Levi rhoek te BOEIPA im bitat soah aka mawt la a pai sakuh.
9 Then Yeshua 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.
Te vaengah Jeshua koca khaw a boeinaphung ah, Kadmiel neh anih koca khaw, Judah koca rhoek khaw, Henadad koca khaw amah koca neh, Levi rhoek khaw amah boeinaphung ah, Pathen im kah bitat aka saii te mawt ham, pakhat la pai uh.
10 When the builders laid the foundation of the LORD’s temple, they set the priests in their vestments with shofars, with the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the LORD, according to the directions of David king of Israel.
BOEIPA bawkim te aka sa rhoek loh a suen van vaengah khosoih rhoek tah thoicam uh tih olueng neh paiuh. Asaph koca Levi rhoek khaw Israel manghai David kut dongkah bangla BOEIPA thangthen ham tlaklak neh omuh.
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 sitlohnah te Israel taengah kumhal duela a then tangloeng dongah BOEIPA te thangthen ham neh uem hamla a doo uh. BOEIPA im a suen dongah BOEIPA te a thangthen tih pilnam boeih khaw tamlung neh a len la yuhui uh.
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,
Tedae khosoih rhoek a kum ngai neh Levi rhoek khaw, a napa patong rhoek, boeilu rhoek khaw lamhma kah im aka hmu rhoek tah im te a suen vaengah a mikphi neh ol a len la rhap uh. Te phoeiah tamlung neh, kohoenah ol neh muep pomsang uh.
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.
Te dongah pilnam kah kohoenah tamlung ol khaw, pilnam rhah ol khaw loha voel pawh. Pilnam te tamlung neh muep a yuhui dongah khohla lamloh ol a yaak.
