Esdras 5
1 Alò pwofèt yo, pwofèt Agée avèk pwofèt Zacharie, fis a Iddo a, te pwofetize a Jwif ki te Juda avèk Jérusalem. Yo te pwofetize nan non Bondye Israël la.
And he prophesied Haggai (prophet the *Q(K)*) and Zechariah [the] son of Iddo (prophets the *Q(k)*) to Jews the who [were] in Judah and in Jerusalem in [the] name of [the] God of Israel [who was] over them.
2 Konsa, Zorobabel fis a Schealthiel la avèk Josué te leve, e te kòmanse rebati lakay Bondye ki Jérusalem nan, ansanm ak pwofèt Bondye yo ki te avèk yo pou bay yo soutyen.
Then they arose Zerubbabel [the] son of Shealtiel and Jeshua [the] son of Jozadak and they began to build [the] house of God which [is] in Jerusalem and [were] with them (prophets the *Q(k)*) of God supporting them.
3 Nan lè Thathnaï, gouvènè pwovens lòtbò Rivyè a e Schethar-Boznaï avèk kolèg parèy a yo, te vin kote yo, e te pale avèk yo konsa: “Se kilès ki te bay ou dekrè pou fin fè tanp sila a, e pou fin fè konstriksyon sila a?”
At it time the he came to them Tattenai [the] governor of [the] region beyond river the and Shethar-Bozenai and associates their and as follows [they were] saying to them who? did he make for you a decree house the this to build and structure the this to finish.
4 Anplis, yo te mande non a mesye yo ki t ap fè batisman sila a.
Then as follows we said to them what? [are] they [the] names of men the who this building the [are] building.
5 Men zye a Bondye pa yo te veye sou ansyen nan Jwif yo, e yo pa t fè yo sispann jiskaske yon rapò te sòti nan Darius, wa Perse la.
And [the] eye of God their it was on [the] elders of Jews the and not they made cease them until report the to Darius it will come and then they will send back letter the concerning this.
6 Kopi a lèt ke Thathnaï, gouvènè lòtbò rivyè a, e Schethar-Boznaï avèk kolèg Arpacschad yo ki te lòtbò rivyè a, ke yo te voye a Darius, wa a.
copy of Letter the which he sent Tattenai - [the] governor of [the] region beyond river the and Shethar-Bozenai and associates his officials the who [were] in [the] region beyond river the to Darius king the.
7 Yo te voye bay li yon rapò, e ladann, te ekri sa: A Darius, wa a; lapè avèk ou!
Word the they sent to him and according to this it was written in midst its to Darius king the peace the all.
8 Kite li rekonèt a wa a ke nou te ale nan pwovens a Juda a, vè kay a gran Bondye a, ki ap bati avèk wòch ki gwo, e travès yo ap poze nan mi li yo. Travay sila a ap avanse avèk gwo swen e ap byen reyisi nan men yo.
Known - let it be to king the that we went to Judea province the to [the] house of God the great and it [is] being built stone of rolling and timber [is] being set in walls the and work the this diligently [is] being done and [is] prospering in hand their.
9 Konsa, nou te kesyonen ansyen sila yo epi te mande yo konsa: “Kilès ki te bay ou dekrè pou rebati tanp sa a, e fini avèk konstriksyon sa a?”
Then we asked to elders the these as follows we said to them who? did he make for you a decree house the this to build and structure the this to finish.
10 Anplis, nou te mande yo non yo pou nou ta kab fè ou konnen e ke nou ta kapab ekri non a mesye ki te chèf an tèt yo.
And also names their we asked (to them *LA(bh)*) to make known to you that we will write [the] name of men the who [are] at heads their.
11 Se konsa yo te reponn nou. Yo te di: “Nou se sèvitè a Bondye syèl la avèk tè a, e n ap rebati tanp ki te bati anpil ane pase yo, ke yon gran wa Israël te bati, e te fin acheve.
And as follows word the they sent back to us to say we they [are] servants his of [the] God of heavens the and earth the and [we are] building house the which it was built from [the] former time of this years many and a king of Israel great he built it and he finished it.
12 Men akoz papa pa nou yo te pwovoke Bondye syèl la a lakòlè, Li te livre yo nan men Nebucadnetsar, wa Babylone nan, Kaldeyen ki te detwi tanp sila a, e te mennen fè sòti tout pèp la jis rive Babylone.
But from that they enraged fathers our [the] God of heavens the he gave them in [the] hand of Nebuchadnezzar [the] king of Babylon (Chaldean the *Q(k)*) and house the this he destroyed it and people the he took into exile to Babylon.
13 Sepandan, nan premye ane Cyrus la, wa Babylone nan, Wa Cyrus te pibliye yon dekrè pou rebati kay Bondye sila a.
Nevertheless in year one of Cyrus king the of Babylon Cyrus king the he made a decree [the] house of God this to build.
14 Anplis, zouti an ajan avèk lò lakay Bondye ke Nebucadnetsar te retire soti nan tanp Jérusalem nan pou te pote yo nan tanp Babylone nan. Menm sila yo, Cyrus te pran soti nan tanp Babylone nan, e yo te bay a yon nonm ki te rele Sheshbatsar, sila li te chwazi kon gouvènè a.
And also vessels the of [the] house of God of gold and silver which Nebuchadnezzar he had brought out from temple the which [was] in Jerusalem and he carried them to temple the of Babylon he brought out them Cyrus king the from temple the of Babylon and they were given to Sheshbazzar name his whom governor he had made him.
15 Li te di li: ‘Pran zouti sila yo, ale depoze yo nan tanp Jérusalem nan, e kite kay Bondye a vin rebati nan plas li.’
And he said to him - (these *Q(K)*) vessels the take! go! deposit! them in temple the which [is] in Jerusalem and [the] house of God let it be built on place its.
16 Epi Sheshbatsar sila a te vin poze fondasyon kay Bondye a Jérusalem. Epi depi lè sa a, jis rive koulye a, li te anba konstriksyon men li poko fini.
Then Sheshbazzar this he came he laid foundations the of [the] house of God which [is] in Jerusalem and from then and until now [it is] being built and not [it is] finished.
17 Alò, si sa ta fè wa a kontan, kite yon rechèch fèt lakay trezorye wa a ki Babylone nan, ke si se konsa, yon dekrè te fèt pa Cyrus pou rebati kay Bondye sila a Jérusalem. Epi konsa, kite wa a voye bannou desizyon pa li sou ka sa a.”
And now if to king the [it is] good let it be searched in [the] house of treasures the of king the there which [are] in Babylon whether there [is] that from Cyrus king the it was made [is] a decree to build [the] house of God this in Jerusalem and [the] will of king the concerning this let him send to us.
