Ezra 8

1 Waɗannan su ne shugabannin iyalai, da kuma waɗanda suka dawo tare da ni daga Babilon a zamanin mulkin Sarki Artazerzes.

Now these are the heads of families who were listed of those who went up with me from Babylon, when Artaxerxes was king.

2 Daga zuriyar Finehas, Gershom ne shugaba; daga zuriyar Itamar, Daniyel ne shugaba; daga zuriyar Dawuda, Hattush

Of the sons of Phinehas, Gershom; of the sons of Ithamar, Daniel; of the sons of David, Hattush;

3 ɗan zuriyar Shekaniya ne shugaba, daga zuriyar Farosh, Zakariya ne shugaba, tare da shi akwai mutum 150;

Of the sons of Shecaniah; of the sons of Parosh, Zechariah; and with him were listed a hundred and fifty males.

13 zuriya ta Adonikam ne suka zo daga ƙarshe, sunayensu kuwa su ne Elifelet, Yehiyel da Shemahiya, tare da su akwai mutum 60;

And of the sons of Adonikam, the last, whose names were Eliphelet, Jeuel, and Shemaiah; and with them sixty males.

14 daga zuriyar Bigwai, Uttai da Zakkur ne shugabanni, tare da su akwai mutum 70.

And of the sons of Bigvai, Uthai and Zabbud; and with them seventy males.

15 Na kuma tattara su a bakin rafi wanda yake gangarawa zuwa Ahawa, muka kafa sansani a can kwana uku. Da na bincika cikin mutane da firistoci, sai na tarar babu Lawiyawa.

And I made them come together by the river flowing to Ahava; and we were there in tents for three days: and after viewing the people and the priests I saw that no sons of Levi were there.

16 Saboda haka sai na aika a kira Eliyezer, da Ariyel, da Shemahiya, da Elnatan, da Yarib, da Natan, da Zakariya, da Meshullam waɗanda su ne shugabanni. Na kuma sa a kira Yohiyarib da Elnatan waɗanda masana ne.

Then I sent for Eliezer and Ariel and Shemaiah and Elnathan Jarib and Elnathan and Nathan and Zechariah and Meshullam, all responsible men; and for Joiarib and Elnathan, who were wise men.

17 Na sa su je wurin Iddo wanda yake shugaba a Kasifiya. Aka gaya musu abin da za su gaya wa Iddo da’yan’uwansa masu aiki a haikali a Kasifiya don su aiko mana waɗanda za su yi mana hidima a haikalin Allahnmu.

And I sent them to Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia, and gave them orders what to say to Iddo and his brothers the Nethinim at the place Casiphia, so that they might come back to us with men to do the work of the house of our God.

18 Da yake Allah yana tare da mu, sai suka aiko mana da Sherebiya, wanda ya iya aiki, shi daga zuriyar Mali ɗan Lawi ne, ɗan Isra’ila. Sai ya zo tare da’ya’yansa da kuma’yan’uwansa. Dukansu dai mutum 18 ne.

And by the help of our God they got for us Ish-sechel, one of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel; and Sherebiah with his sons and brothers, eighteen;

19 Suka kuma aika da Hashabiya tare da Yeshahiya daga zuriyar Merari, da’yan’uwansu da kuma’ya’yansu, su kuma mutum 20 ne.

And Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brothers and their sons, twenty;

20 Sun kuma kawo masu aiki a haikali mutum 220, ƙungiyar da Dawuda da abokan aikinsa suka keɓe don su taimaki Lawiyawa aiki. Duk aka rubuta waɗannan da sunayensu.

And of the Nethinim, to whom David and the captains had given the work of helping the Levites, two hundred and twenty Nethinim, all of them specially named.

21 A can, a bakin rafin Ahawa, na sa mu yi azumi, domin mu ƙasƙantar da kanmu a gaban Allah, mu kuma roƙe shi yă kiyaye mana hanya, da mu da’ya’yanmu da kayanmu duka.

Then I gave orders for a time of going without food, there by the river Ahava, so that we might make ourselves low before our God in prayer, requesting from him a straight way for us and for our little ones and for all our substance.

22 Na ji kunya in roƙi sarki yă haɗa mu da sojoji da masu dawakai don su yi mana rakiya su kāre mu daga magabta a kan hanya, gama mun ce wa sarki, “Alherin Allah yana tare da duk wanda yake dogara gare shi, amma kuma fushinsa yana kan duk wanda ya juya masa baya.”

For I would not, for shame, make request to the king for a band of armed men and horsemen to give us help against those who might make attacks on us on the way: for we had said to the king, The hand of our God is on his servants for good, but his power and his wrath are against all those who are turned away from him.

23 Saboda haka sai muka yi azumi, muka kai roƙonmu a wurin Allah, ya kuwa amsa mana.

So we went without food, requesting our God for this: and his ear was open to our prayer.

24 Sai na keɓe manyan firistoci guda goma sha biyu tare da Sherebiya, Hashabiya da kuma’yan’uwansu guda goma.

So I put on one side twelve of the chiefs of the priests, Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers with them,

25 Na auna musu zinariya da azurfa, da kwanoni waɗanda sarki da mashawartansa, da sauran abokan aikinsa, da Isra’ilawan da suke can suka bayar domin haikalin Allahnmu.

And gave to them by weight the silver and the gold and the vessels, all the offering for the house of our God which the king and his wise men and his captains and all Israel there present had given:

26 Na auna musu talenti 650 na azurfa, talenti ɗari na kwanonin azurfa, talenti 100 na zinariya,

Measuring into their hands six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels, a hundred talents' weight, and a hundred talents of gold,

27 kwanonin zinariya guda 20 da darajarsu ya kai darik 1,000, da kwanoni biyu na gogaggen tagulla, wanda yake darajarsa daidai da zinariya.

And twenty gold basins, of a thousand darics, and two vessels of the best bright brass, equal in value to gold.

28 Na ce masa, “Ku da kayan nan tsarkaka ne ga Ubangiji. Azurfa da zinariya ɗin, bayarwa ce ta yardar rai ga Ubangiji, Allah na kakanninku.

And I said to them, You are holy to the Lord and the vessels are holy: and the silver and the gold are an offering freely given to the Lord, the God of your fathers.

29 Ku lura da su da kyau har sai kun isa Urushalima. Ku auna su a shirayin haikalin Ubangiji a Urushalima, a gaban manyan firistoci, da Lawiyawa, da shugabannin iyalai na Isra’ila.”

Take care of them and keep them, till you put them on the scales before the chiefs of the priests and the Levites and the chiefs of the families of Israel, in Jerusalem, in the rooms of the house of the Lord.

30 Sa’an nan sai firistoci, da Lawiyawa suka karɓi azurfa da zinariya da kuma tsarkakan kwanonin da aka auna don a kai haikalin Allahnmu a Urushalima.

So the priests and the Levites took the weight of silver and gold and the vessels, to take them to Jerusalem into the house of our God.

31 A rana ta goma sha biyu ga watan farko, muka tashi daga bakin rafin Ahawa don mu tafi Urushalima. Alherin Allahnmu yana tare da mu, ya kuma kāre mu daga magabta da’yan fashi.

Then we went away from the river of Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go to Jerusalem; and the hand of our God was on us, and he gave us salvation from our haters and those who were waiting to make an attack on us by the way.

32 Muka iso Urushalima, inda muka huta kwana uku.

And we came to Jerusalem and were there for three days.

33 A rana ta huɗu muka tafi haikalin Allah, muka auna azurfa, da zinariya, da tsarkakan kwanonin, muka ba Meremot ɗan Uriya firist, da Eleyazar ɗan Finehas yana tare da shi, da kuma Lawiyawan nan, wato, Yozabad ɗan Yeshuwa, da Nowadiya ɗan Binnuyi.

And on the fourth day, the silver and the gold and the vessels were measured out by weight in the house of our God into the hands of Meremoth, the son of Uriah, the priest; and with him was Eleazar, the son of Phinehas; and with them were Jozabad, the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah, the son of Binnui, the Levites;

34 Aka yi lissafi aka auna kome aka tarar yana nan daidai, aka kuma rubuta yawan nauyin a lokacin.

All was handed over by number and by weight: and the weight was put on record at that time.

35 Sa’an nan sai waɗanda suka dawo daga bauta suka miƙa hadaya ta ƙonawa ga Allah na Isra’ila. Wato, bijimai guda goma sha biyu don Isra’ilawa duka, raguna tasa’in da shida,’yan raguna saba’in da bakwai, bunsurai kuma guda goma sha biyu. Aka miƙa su hadaya don zunubi. Wannan duka hadaya ta ƙonawa ce ga Ubangiji.

And those who had been prisoners, who had come back from a strange land, made burned offerings to the God of Israel, twelve oxen for all Israel, ninety-six male sheep, seventy-seven lambs, twelve he-goats for a sin-offering: all this was a burned offering to the Lord.

36 Suka kuma kai saƙon sarki zuwa ga wakilansa, da kuma gwamnoni na Kewayen Kogin Yuferites waɗanda suka taimaki mutane da kuma gidan Allah.

And they gave the king's orders to the king's captains and the rulers across the river, and they gave the people and the house of God the help which was needed.
