< Ezra 3 >
1 Le ɣleti adrelia me esi Israelviwo nɔ woƒe duwo me nyuie vɔ la, dukɔ la ƒo ƒu ɖe Yerusalem abe ame ɖekawo ene.
Utafika mwezi wa chisanu ndi chiwiri Aisraeli atakhala kale mʼmidzi yawo, anthu anasonkhana ku Yerusalemu ndi cholinga chimodzi.
2 Tete Yozadak ƒe vi, Yesua, nɔvia nunɔlawo kple Sealtiel ƒe vi, Zerubabel kple woƒe kpeɖeŋutɔ bubuwo dze Israel ƒe Mawu la ƒe vɔsamlekpui la ɖiɖi gɔme be woasa numevɔwo le edzi, le nu si woŋlɔ ɖe Mawu ƒe ame, Mose ƒe Se la me nu.
Kenaka Yesuwa mwana wa Yozadaki ndi ansembe anzake pamodzi ndi Zerubabeli mwana wa Sealatieli ndi abale ake anayamba kumanga guwa lansembe la Mulungu wa Israeli. Anatero pofuna kuti aziperekapo nsembe zopsereza monga analembera mʼbuku la Mose, munthu wa Mulungu uja.
3 Togbɔ be wovɔ̃ na ame siwo ƒo xlã wo hã la, woɖi vɔsamlekpui la ɖe eƒe gɔmeɖokpewo dzi, eye wosa ŋdi kple fiẽ numevɔsawo le edzi na Yehowa.
Ndi mantha ndi mantha chifukwa cha anthu a mʼmayikomo, iwo anamanga guwalo pa maziko ake akale, ndipo anapereka nsembe zopsereza kwa Mulungu pa guwapo mmawa ndi madzulo.
4 Le nu si woŋlɔ ɖi nu la, woɖu agbadɔmeŋkekenyui, eye wosa numevɔ xexlẽme sinu woɖo na ŋkeke ɖe sia ɖe.
Ankasunga tsiku la chikondwerero cha misasa monga momwe zinalembedwera. Ankaperekanso nsembe za tsiku ndi tsiku monga mwa chiwerengero chake potsata mwambo wake wa tsiku ndi tsiku monga zinalembedwa.
5 Le esia megbe la, wosa gbe sia gbe numevɔsawo, Dzinu Yeye vɔsawo kple vɔsa siwo woɖo ɖi na Yehowa ƒe ŋkeke kɔkɔe bubuwo. Nenema ke wosa vɔ siwo nye lɔlɔ̃nununana na Yehowa.
Pambuyo pake, ankapereka nsembe zopsereza, nsembe zopereka pa nthawi ya mwezi watsopano ndi za pa masiku onse a chikondwerero oyikidwa kutamandira Yehova, kudzanso nsembe zaufulu zopereka kwa Yehova.
6 Togbɔ be womeɖo Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la gɔme anyi haɖe o hã la, wodze vɔsasa na Yehowa gɔme le ɣleti adrelia ƒe ŋkeke gbãtɔ dzi.
Kuyambira pa tsiku loyamba la mwezi wachisanu ndi chiwiri, iwo anayambanso kupereka nsembe zopsereza kwa Yehova, ngakhale kuti maziko a Nyumba ya Yehova anali asanamangidwe.
7 Azɔ la, wotsɔ ga na gliɖolawo kple atikpalawo, eye wotsɔ nuɖuɖu, nunono kple ami na Sidontɔwo kple Tirotɔwo, be woatsɔ sedati lalãwo tso Lebanon ato ƒu dzi ava kɔ ɖe Yopa, le Persia fia, Sirus ƒe mɔnana nu.
Ndipo anapereka ndalama kwa amisiri a miyala ndi kwa amisiri a matabwa, ndi chakudya, chakumwa ndi mafuta kwa anthu a ku Sidoni ndi a ku Turo, kuti abweretse mitengo ya mkungudza pa nyanja kuchokera ku Lebanoni mpaka ku Yopa. Zonsezi anachita malinga ndi chilolezo chimene analandira kuchokera kwa Koresi, mfumu ya Peresiya.
8 Le ɣleti evelia me, le ƒe evelia me esi wova ɖo Mawu ƒe aƒe la me le Yerusalem la, Sealtiel ƒe vi, Zerubabel, Yozadak ƒe vi, Yesua kple wo nɔvi bubuawo, nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo kple ame siwo trɔ tso aboyome va Yerusalem la, dze dɔ la gɔme. Wotia Levitɔ siwo xɔ ƒe blaeve alo wu nenema la be woakpɔ Yehowa ƒe aƒe la ƒe dɔ dzi.
Tsono mu chaka chachiwiri atabwera ku Yerusalemu, ku malo akale a Nyumba ya Yehova, mwezi wachiwiri Zerubabeli mwana wa Sealatieli, Yesuwa mwana wa Yozadaki pamodzi ndi abale awo onse, ansembe, Alevi ndi onse amene anabwera ku Yerusalemu kuchokera ku ukapolo, anayamba kugwira ntchito. Iwo anasankha Alevi a zaka zoyambira makumi awiri kuti aziyangʼanira ntchito ya kumanga Nyumba ya Yehova.
9 Yesua kple via ŋutsuwo, nɔviawo kple Kadmiel kple via ŋutsuwo, ame siwo nye Hodavia ƒe dzidzimeviwo, kpe ɖe Henadad ƒe viŋutsuwo kple wo viŋutsuwo kpakple wo nɔviwo ŋu. Levitɔwo katã wɔ ɖeka le ame siwo le Mawu ƒe aƒe la tum la ƒe dɔwo dzi kpɔkpɔ me.
Yesuwa ndi ana ake aamuna kudzanso abale ake, Kadimieli ndi ana ake (ana a Yuda) onse pamodzi anasenza udindo woyangʼanira antchito ku Nyumba ya Mulungu, kuphatikizanso ana a Henadadi komanso Alevi, ana awo ndi abale awo.
10 Esi xɔtulawo ɖo Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la ƒe gɔmeɖokpe vɔ la, nunɔlawo nɔ woƒe awu ʋlayawo me, lé kpẽwo ɖe asi kple Levitɔ siwo tso Asaf ƒe ƒome me, lé asiʋuiwo ɖe asi, eye woyi ɖanɔ woƒe nɔƒewo be woakafu Yehowa, abe ale si Israel fia, David ɖoe da ɖi ene.
Amisiri omanga nyumba atamanga maziko a Nyumba ya Yehova, ansembe anabwera akuyimba malipenga, atavala zovala zaunsembe. Ndipo Alevi, zidzukulu za Asafu, anadza akuyimba matambolini ndi kutenga udindo wawo wotamanda Yehova, potsata malangizo a Davide mfumu ya Aisraeli.
11 Wotsɔ kafukafu kple akpedada dzi ha na Yehowa be, “Eƒe dɔ me nyo, eye eƒe lɔlɔ̃ na Israel li ɖaa.” Tete amehawo katã do kafukafuɣli na Yehowa sesĩe elabena woɖo Yehowa ƒe aƒe la ƒe gɔmeɖokpeawo vɔ.
Iwo ankayimba motamanda ndi mothokoza Yehova nyimbo iyi: “Yehova ndi wabwino; chikondi chake pa Israeli ndi chamuyaya.” Ndipo anthu onse ankafuwula kwambiri kumutamanda Yehova, chifukwa maziko a Nyumba ya Yehova anali kumangidwa.
12 Ke esi nunɔla tsitsi geɖewo, Levitɔwo kple ƒometatɔwo, ame siwo kpɔ gbedoxɔ xoxo la kpɔ, eye wogakpɔ yeyea ƒe gɔmeɖoƒe la, wo katã fa avi kple ɣli, ke ame bubu geɖewo ya do dzidzɔɣli.
Koma ambiri mwa ansembe, Alevi ndiponso atsogoleri amabanja, akuluakulu amene anaona Nyumba ya Yehova yakale, analira mokweza pamene anaona maziko a nyumbayi akumangidwa. Komanso ena ambiri ankafuwula mosangalala.
13 Ame aɖeke mate ŋu ade vovototo dzidzɔɣli la kple aviɣli la dome o, elabena ameawo ƒe aseyetsotso de dzi ŋutɔ. Ale wose woƒe ɣli la le didiƒe ke.
Choncho panalibe amene ankatha kusiyanitsa liwu lofuwula mokondwerera ndi liwu la anthu olira, chifukwa anthuwo ankafuwula kwambiri. Ndipo liwu lofuwulalo limamveka kutali.
