< 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.
Kalpasanna, nagipadto babaen iti nagan ti Dios ti Israel da Haggeo a profeta ken Zacarias a putot a lalaki ni Iddo a profeta kadagiti Judio idiay Juda ken Jerusalem.
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.
Nagsagana ni Zerubbabel a putot a lalaki ni Salatiel ken ni Jesua a putot a lalaki ni Josadac ket rinugianda a bangonen ti balay ti Dios idiay Jerusalem, a kaduada dagiti profeta a nangpabileg kadakuada.
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?'
Kalpasanna, immay ni Tatnai a gobernador ti Probinsia iti Ballasiw ti Karayan, ni Setar Bozenai ken dagiti kakaduada, ket kinunada kadakuada, “Siasino ti nangibilin kadakayo a bangonen daytoy a balay ken leppasen dagitoy a pader?”
4 Then thus we have said to them, 'What [are] the names of the men who are building this building?'
Kinunada pay, “Ania ti nagnagan dagiti lallaki a mangibangbangon iti daytoy a balay?”
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.
Ngem ti mata ti Dios ket adda kadagiti panglakayen a Judio, ket saan ida a napasardeng dagiti kabusorda. Ur-urayenda ti maipatulod a surat iti ari ken tapno maipasubli ti maysa a bilin maipapan iti daytoy.
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.
Daytoy ti surat da Tatnai, Setar Bozenai, ken dagiti kakaduada nga opisiales para kenni Dario nga ari.
7 A letter they have sent unto him, and thus is it written in it:
Nangipatulodda iti pakaammo, kastoy ti insuratda para kenni Ari Dario. “Kapia koma ti adda kenka.
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.
Maipakaammo iti ari a napan kami idiay Juda, iti balay ti naindaklan a Dios. Madama a maibangbangon daytoy babaen kadagiti dadakkel a batbato ken nakabilan iti kaykayo dagiti pader. Naan-anay ti pannakaaramid daytoy ket adu ti malmalpas dagiti imada.
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?
Dinamagmi kadagiti panglakayenda, 'Siasino ti nangibilin kadakayo a bangonen daytoy a balay ken dagitoy a pader?'
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.
Dinamagmi pay dagiti nagnaganda tapno maamoam no ania ti nagan ti tunggal maysa a nangidaulo kadakuada.
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:
Simmungbatda ket kinunada, 'Adipennakami ti Dios ti langit ken daga, ket bangbangonenmi manen daytoy a balay a siguden a naibangon, adun a tawen ti naglabas idi imbangon ken inleppas daytoy ti natan-ok nga ari ti Israel.
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;
Ngem idi pinagpungtot dagiti kapuonanmi ti Dios ti langit, inyawat ida ti Dios iti ima ni Nebucadnesar nga ari ti Babilonia a nangdadael iti daytoy a balay ken nangitalaw kadagiti tattao a kas balud nga impanna idiay Babilonia.
13 but in the first year of Cyrus king of Babylon, Cyrus the king made a decree to build this house of God,
Nupay kasta, iti umuna a tawen a panagturay ni Cyrus a kas ari ti Babilonia, nangipaulog ni Cyrus iti maysa a bilin tapno maibangon manen ti balay ti Dios.
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,
Insubli pay ni Ari Cyrus dagiti balitok ken pirak nga alikamen iti balay ti Dios nga innala ni Ari Nebucadnesar manipud idiay templo ti Jerusalem nga impanna iti templo idiay Babilonia. Insublina dagitoy kenni Sesbasar a pinagbalinna a gobernador.
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.
Kinunana kenkuana, “Alaem dagitoy nga alikamen. Ikabilmo dagitoy iti templo idiay Jerusalem. Bay-am a maibangon manen ti balay ti Dios sadiay.
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.
Kalpasanna, immay daytoy a Sesbasar ket insaadna ti pundasion para iti balay ti Dios idiay Jerusalem; ket madama a maipatpatakder daytoy ngem saanpay a naileppas.'
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.'
Ita, no nasayaat para iti ari, masukimat koma daytoy iti balay a nakaidulinan dagiti libro idiay Babilonia no adda sadiay ti bilin a nagtaud kenni Ari Cyrus a maibangon manen daytoy a balay ti Dios idiay Jerusalem. Kalpasanna, mabalin nga ipatulod ti ari ti pangngeddengna kadakami.
