< Ezra 5 >
1 And prophesied have the prophets, (Haggai the prophet, and Zechariah son of Iddo) unto the Jews who [are] in Judah and in Jerusalem, in the name of the God of Israel — unto them.
A LAILA o na kaula, o Hagai ke kaula, a o Zokaria ke keiki a Ido, wanana aku la laua i na Iudaio ma Iuda, a ma Ierusalema, ma ka inoa o ke Akua o ka Iseraela ia lakou.
2 Then have Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua son of Jozadak, risen, and begun to build the house of God, that [is] in Jerusalem, and with them are the prophets of God supporting them.
Ia manawa ku ae la o Zerubabela ke keiki a Sealetiela, a me Iesua, ke keiki a Iozadaka, a hoomaka aku e hana i ka hale o ke Akua ma Ierusalema; a me laua pu na kaula o ke Akua e kokua ana ia laua.
3 At that time come to them hath Tatnai, governor beyond the river, and Shethar-Boznai, and their companions, and thus they are saying to them, 'Who hath made for you a decree this house to build, and this wall to finish?'
A ia wa hoi, hele mai io lakou la o Tatenai, ke kiaaina o keia aoao o ka muliwai, a me Setare-bozenai, a me ko laua mau hoalawehana, a olelo mai ia lakou peneia, Nawni oukou i kauoha mai e hana i keia hale, a e hoopaa hoi i keia papohaku.
4 Then thus we have said to them, 'What [are] the names of the men who are building this building?'
Alaila ninau aku hoi makou ia lakou peneia, Owai ka inoa o na kanaka, nana e hana keia hale?
5 And the eye of their God hath been upon the elders of the Jews, and they have not caused them to cease till the matter goeth to Darius, and then they send back a letter concerning this thing.
Aka, o ka maka o ko lakou Akua, aia no ia maluna o ka poe lunakahiko o na Iudaio, aole lakou i hiki ke hooki aku ia lakou, a hiki ia mea io Dariu la; alaila hoouna aku la lakou i ka palapala no keia mea.
6 The copy of a letter that Tatnai, governor beyond the river, hath sent, and Shethar-Boznai and his companions, the Apharsachites who [are] beyond the river, unto Darius the king.
Eia ka palapala a Tatenai, ke kiaaina o keia aoao o ka muliwai, a o Setare-bozenai, a me kona poe hoalawehana, ka poe Aparesaka, ma keia aoao o ka muliwai, i hoouna aku ai ia Dariu ke alii:
7 A letter they have sent unto him, and thus is it written in it:
Hoouna aku la lakou i ka palapala ia ia, peneia i kakauia'i maloko, Na Dariu ke alii, e aloha nui ia oia.
8 'To Darius the king, all peace! be it known to the king that we have gone to the province of Judah, to the great house of God, and it is built [with] rolled stones, and wood is placed in the walls, and this work is done speedily, and prospering in their hand.
E hoikeia i ke alii, i hele ai makou i ka aina o ka Iuda i ka hale o ke Akua nui, ka mea i hanaia i ka pohaku i kalaiia a me ka laau i hoonohoia maloko o na papohaku, a ke hana wikiwiki ia keia hana, a e ko ana ia iloko o ko lakou lima.
9 Then we have asked of these elders, thus we have said to them, Who hath made for you a decree this house to build, and this wall to finish?
Alaila ninau aku la makou i kela poe lunakahiko, a i aku la ia lakou, Nawai oukou i kauoha mai e hana i keia hale, a e hoopaa hoi i keia mau papohaku?
10 And also their names we have asked of them, to let thee know, that we might write the names of the men who [are] at their head.
Ninau aku hoi makou i ko lakou inoa, i hoike aku ai makou ia oe, a i kakau iho ai hoi i ka inoa o na kanaka, ka poe luna hoi o lakou.
11 'And thus they have returned us word, saying, We [are] servants of the God of heaven and earth, and are building the house that was built many years before this, that a great king of Israel built and finished:
A hai mai lakou i ka olelo ia makou peneia, i mai la, He poe kauwa makou na ke Akua o ka lani, a o ka honua, a ke hana nei i ka hale, i ka mea i hanaia i na makahiki mamua loa aku, a kekahi alii nui o ka Iseraela i hana, a hoopaa aku ia.
12 but after that our fathers made the God of heaven angry, he gave them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon the Chaldean, and this house he destroyed, and the people he removed to Babylon;
Aka, mahope o ka hoonaukiuki ana o ko makou poe makua i ke Akua o ka lani, haawi oia ia lakou iloko o ka lima o Nebukaneza ke alii o Babulona, no Kaledea, nana i wawahi keia hale, a lawe pio aku la i na kanaka i Babulona.
13 but in the first year of Cyrus king of Babylon, Cyrus the king made a decree to build this house of God,
Aka, i ka makahiki mua o Kuro ke alii o Babulona, kauoha aku la o Kuro ke alii, e hana i ka hale o ke Akua.
14 and also, the vessels of the house of God, of gold and silver, that Nebuchadnezzar had taken forth out of the temple that [is] in Jerusalem, and brought them to the temple of Babylon, them hath Cyrus the king brought forth out of the temple of Babylon, and they have been given to [one], Sheshbazzar [is] his name, whom he made governor,
A o na kiaha gula, a me ke kala o ka hale o ke Akua, na mea a Nebukaneza i lawe ae marloko mai o ka luakini ma Ierusalema, a hali aku ia mau mea i ka luakini ma Babulona, oia mau mea ka Kuro ke alii i lawe ni mailoko mai o ka luakini ma Babulona, a ua haawiia oia mau mea i kekahi, o Sesehazara kona inoa, ka mea ana i hoonoho ai i kiaaina;
15 and said to him, These vessels lift up, go, put them down in the temple that [is] in Jerusalem, and the house of God is builded on its place.
I aku la ia ia, E lawe i keia mau kiaha, e hele e hali aku ia mau mea i ka luakini ma Ierusalema, a e hanaia ka hale o ke Akua ma kona wahi.
16 Then hath this Sheshbazzar come — he hath laid the foundations of the house of God that [is] in Jerusalem, and from thence even till now it hath been building, and is not finished.
Alaila hele mai o ua Sesebazara la, a hoouoho i ke kahua o ka hale o ke Akua ma Ierusalema: a mai ia manawa a keia wa ka hana ana, aole nae i paa.
17 'And now, if to the king it be good, let search be made in the treasure-house of the king, that [is] there in Babylon, whether it be that of Cyrus the king there was made a decree to build this house of God in Jerusalem, and the will of the king concerning this thing he doth send unto us.'
Ano hoi, ina he mea pono i ke alii, e imihia ma ka hale waihonawaiwai o ke alii ma Babulona, ina he oiaio, ua kauohaia e Kuro e hana i keia hale o ke Akua ma Ierusalema; a e hoouna mai ke alii i kona manao no keia mea.
