< Ezra 3 >

1 And the seventh month cometh, and the sons of Israel [are] in the cities, and the people are gathered, as one men, unto Jerusalem.
Tukun malem itkosr, mwet Israel elos oakwuki in acn selos. Na elos nukewa toeni Jerusalem.
2 And rise doth Jeshua son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and they build the altar of the God of Israel, to cause to ascend upon it burnt-offerings, as it is written in the law of Moses, the man of God.
Ac Joshua wen natul Jehozadak, oayapa mwet tol wial, ac Zerubbabel wen natul Shealtiel wi sou lal, elos tukeni sifilpa musai loang lun God lun Israel, tuh elos fah ku in orek kisa firir fac fal nu ke ouiya ma simla in Ma Sap lal Moses, mwet lun God.
3 And they establish the altar on its bases, because of the fear upon them of the peoples of the lands, and he causeth burnt-offerings to ascend upon it to Jehovah, burnt-offerings for the morning and for the evening.
Mwet su foloko liki sruoh elos finne sangeng sin mwet muta fin acn ah, elos sifil pacna musaela loang in kisa fin acn se na ma oan we meet ah. Na elos sifilpa mutawauk in kisakin mwe kisa in lotutang ac mwe kisa in eku ke len nukewa.
4 And they make the feast of the booths as it is written, and the burnt-offering of the day daily in number according to the ordinance, the matter of a day in its day;
Elos akfulatye Kufwen Iwen Aktuktuk, fal nu ke ma oakwuk. Ke kais sie len elos sang mwe kisa fal nu ke ma oakwuki nu ke len sac.
5 and after this a continual burnt-offering, and for new moons, and for all appointed seasons of Jehovah that are sanctified; and for every one who is willingly offering a willing-offering to Jehovah.
Ac sayen ma inge, elos oru pac mwe kisa firir ma enenu in fonna kisakinyuk, ac mwe kisa ke Kufwa lun Malem Sasu ac ke toeni nukewa su mwet uh alu nu sin LEUM GOD, oayapa elos sang mwe sang ke insewowo nu sin LEUM GOD.
6 From the first day of the seventh month they have begun to cause burnt-offerings to ascend to Jehovah, and the temple of Jehovah hath not been founded,
Mwet uh finne soenna mutawauk in musai Tempul, a ke len se emeet in malem se akitkosr elos mutawauk in orek kisa firir nu sin LEUM GOD.
7 and they give money to hewers and to artificers, and food, and drink, and oil to Zidonians and to Tyrians, to bring in cedar-trees from Lebanon unto the sea of Joppa, according to the permission of Cyrus king of Persia concerning them.
Mwet uh sang mani in moli mwet orekma ke eot ac mwet kamtu, ac elos sang mwe mongo, mwe nim, ac oil in olive tuh in supweyukla nu in siti Tyre ac Sidon, mwe ayaol nu ke sak cedar Lebanon me. Sak inge ac pahkinyuk ut meoa nu Joppa. Tokosra Fulat Cyrus lun Persia pa fuhlela tuh ma inge nukewa in orek.
8 And in the second year of their coming in unto the house of God, to Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all those coming from the captivity to Jerusalem, and they appoint the Levites from a son of twenty years and upward, to overlook the work of the house of Jehovah.
Ouinge elos mutawauk orekma ke malem se akluo in yac se tukun elos foloko nu ke acn se Tempul tuh oan we Jerusalem. Zerubbabel, Joshua, ac mwet wialos, oayapa mwet tol, ac mwet Levi, aok mwet nukewa su folok liki sruoh nu Jerusalem, elos tukeni kasru ke orekma. Mwet Levi nukewa yac longoul matwa ku matu liki, pa itukyang in kol orekma in sifil musai Tempul uh.
9 And Jeshua standeth, [and] his sons, and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, sons of Judah together, to overlook those doing the work in the house of God; the sons of Henadad, [and] their sons and their brethren the Levites.
Jeshua mwet Levi, ac wen natul nukewa ac sou lalos, oayapa Kadmiel ac wen natul nukewa (elos ma in sou lal Hodaviah) elos tukeni kol orekma ke sifilpa musa lun Tempul. (Oasr pac kasreyuk nu selos sin mwet Levi in sou lal Henadad.)
10 And those building have founded the temple of Jehovah, and they appoint the priests, clothed, with trumpets, and the Levites, sons of Asaph, with cymbals, to praise Jehovah, by means of [the instruments of] David king of Israel.
Ke mwet musa elos mutawauk in oaki pwelung lun Tempul uh, mwet tol elos nokomang nuknuk in alu lalos, ac tu yen srisrngiyuk nu selos wi mwe ukuk in paolos, na mwet Levi in sou lal Asaph elos sruok cymbal natulos ac wi pac tuyak. Elos kaksakin LEUM GOD fal nu ke ma fwack nu selos tutafme in pacl lal Tokosra David me.
11 And they respond in praising and in giving thanks to Jehovah, for good, for to the age His kindness [is] over Israel, and all the people have shouted — a great shout — in giving praise to Jehovah, because the house of Jehovah hath been founded.
Ke elos on ac kaksakin LEUM GOD, elos kalweni kas inge: “LEUM GOD El wo, ac lungse lal nu sin Israel oan ma pahtpat.” Mwet nukewa elos sala ke kuiyalos nufon, ac kaksakin LEUM GOD, mweyen orekma in oakiya pwelung lun Tempul uh srola.
12 And many of the priests, and the Levites, and the heads of the fathers, the aged men who had seen the first house — in this house being founded before their eyes — are weeping with a loud voice, and many with a shout, in joy, lifting up the voice;
Mwet matu puspis sin mwet tol ac mwet Levi ac sifen sou, elos tuh liye Tempul se meet ah, na ke elos liye oakwuki lun pwelung ke Tempul se inge, elos wowoyak ac tung. A mwet saya su wi tukeni sac elos sasa ke engan.
13 and the people are not discerning the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people, for the people are shouting — a great shout — and the noise hath been heard unto a distance.
Wangin mwet ku in akilen inmasrlon wowo ke engan ac wowo ke tung, mweyen pusren ngisyak lalos orala pusra na lulap su ku in lohngyuk yen loessula.
