3 I ka makahiki mua o Kuro ke alii, kauoha ae la o ua Kuro la ke alii no ka hale o ke Akua ma Ierusalema, E hauaia ka hale, kahi i kaumaha aku ai i na mohai, a e hoonohopaaia ke kumu; he kanaono hailima ke kiekie, a he kanaono hailima ka laula;

4 Pakolu na papapohaku kalai, a e pakahi hoi ka papa laau hou; a e haawiia ka waiwai mai ka hale o ke alii mai:
Three orders of great stones, and one order of timber, and let the expenses be giuen of the Kings house.
5 A o na kiaha gula hoi a me ke kala o ka hale o ke Akua, na mea a Nebukaneza i lawe ae mai ka luakini mai ma Ierusalema, a hali mai i Babulona, e hoihoiia'ku, a e haliia aku i ka luakini ma Ierusalema, o kela keia ma kona wahi iho, a e waiho ma ka hale o ke Akua.
And also let them render the vessels of the house of God (of golde and siluer, which Nebuchadnezzar tooke out of the Temple, which was in Ierusalem, and brought vnto Babel) and let him goe vnto the Temple that is in Ierusalem to his place, and put them in the house of God.
6 Ano hoi, e Tatenai, ke kiaaina ma kela aoao o ka muliwai, a me Setare bozenai, a me ko laua poe hoalawehana, ka poe Aparesaka, ma kela aoao o ka muliwai, e hookaawaleia oukou mai ia wahi aku.
Therefore Tatnai captaine beyond the Riuer, and Shethar Boznai, (and their companions Apharsecaie, which are beyonde the Riuer) be ye farre from thence.
7 E waiho malie oukou i ka hana o keia hale o ke Akua; a o ke alii kiaaina o na Iudaio, a me ka poe kahiko o na Iudaio, e hana lakou i keia hale o ke Akua ma kona wahi.
Suffer ye the worke of this house of God, that the captaine of the Iewes and the Elders of the Iewes may buylde this house of God in his place.
8 Eia hoi ka'u o kauoha aku nei i ka mea a oukou e hana aku ai i na lunakahiko o keia poe Iudaio, no ka hana ana i keia hale o ke Akua: noloko mai o ka waiwai o ke alii, oia ka hookupu ma kela aoao o ka muliwai, e haawi koke ia'ku ka waiwai no keia poe kanaka, i keakea ole ia'i lakou.
For I haue giuen a commandement what ye shall doe to the Elders of these Iewes, for the buylding of this house of God, that of the reuenues of the King, which is of the tribute beyonde the Riuer, there be incontinently expenses giuen vnto these men that they cease not.
9 A o na mea e pono ai lakou, o na keikibipikane, a o na hipakane, a me na keikihipa, no na mohaikuni na ke Akua o ka lani, o ka palaoa, ka paakai, o ka waina, a me ka aila, e like me ke kauoha a na kahuna ma Ierusalema, e haawiia'ku ia na lakou i kela la keia la, aole ka ole:
And that which they shall haue neede of, let it be giuen vnto them day by day, whether it be yong bullockes, or rammes, or lambes for the burnt offrings of the God of heauen, wheate, salt, wine, and oyle, according to the appoyntment of the Priestes that are in Ierusalem, that there bee no fault,
10 I kaumaha aku ai lakou i na mea ala i ke Akua o ka lani, a i pule aku hoi no ke ola o ke alii, a no kana mau keiki.
That they may haue to offer sweete odours vnto the God of heauen, and praye for the Kings life, and for his sonnes.
11 A ke kauoha aku nei no hoi au, o kela kanaka keia kanaka e hoololi i keia olelo, e laweia ka laau mai kona hale mai, a kukuluia, e kaaweia oia maluna o ia mea, a e hooliloia kona hale i puu lepo no keia mea.
And I haue made a decree, that whosoeuer shall alter this sentence, the wood shall be pulled downe from his house, and shall be set vp, and he shalbe hanged thereon, and his house shalbe made a dunghill for this.
12 A o ke Akua, nana i waiho kona inoa malaila, e luku aku ia i na'lii a pau, a me na kanaka, ke o aku ko lakou lima e hoololi, a e wawahi i keia hale o ke Akua ma Ierusalema. Owau, o Dariu ka i kauoha aku; e hana koke ia hoi oia.
And the God that hath caused his Name to dwell there, destroy all Kings and people that put to their hand to alter, and to destroy this house of God, which is in Ierusalem. I Darius haue made a decree, let it be done with speede.
13 Alaila o Tatenai, ke kiaaina ma keia aoao o ka muliwai, e Setare-bozenai, a me ko laua hoalawehana, e like me ka mea a ke alii i hoouna mai ai, pela lakou i hana koke aku ai.
Then Tatnai the captaine beyond the Riuer, and Shethar Boznai and their companions, according to that which Darius had sent, so they did speedily.
14 A hana aku la na luna kahiko o na Iudaio, a ua pomaikai lakou ma ka wanana a Hagai ke kaula, a me Zakaria ke keiki a Ido. A hana lakou, a hoopaa hoi, e like me ke kauoha a ke Akua o ka Iseraela, a like hoi me ke kauoha a Kuro, a me Dariu, a me Aretasaseta, ke alii o Peresia.
So the Elders of the Iewes builded, and they prospered by the prophecying of Haggai the Prophet, and Zechariah the sonne of Iddo, and they buylded and finished it, by the appoyntment of the God of Israel, and by the commandement of Cyrus and Darius, and Artahshashte king of Persia.
15 A ua hoopaaia keia hale i ke kolu o ka la o ka malama Adara, oia ke oao o ka makahiki a Dariu ke alii i noho alii ai.
And this house was finished the thirde day of the moneth Adar, which was the sixt yeere of the reigne of King Darius.
16 A o na mamo a Iseraela, na kahuna, a me na Levi, a me na mea i koe o ka poe i pio, hoolaa aku la lakou i keia hale o ke Akua me ka olioli.
And the children of Israel, the Priestes, and the Leuites, and the residue of the children of the captiuitie kept the dedication of this house of God with ioy,
17 A kaumaha aku la no ka hoolaa ana i keia hale o ke Akua, i hookahi haneri bipikane, i elua haneri hipakane, a i eha haneri keikihipa; a i umikumamalua na kaokane i mohaihala no ka Iseraela a pau, e like me na ohana o ka Iseraela.
And offred at the dedication of this house of God an hundreth bullockes, two hundreth rams, foure hundreth lambes, and twelue goates, for the sinne of all Israel, according to the nomber of the tribes of Israel.
18 A hoonoho iho la lakou i na kahuna ma ko lakou mau papa, a me na Levi ma ko lakou mau papa, no ka oihana o ke Akua ma Ierusalema; e like me ko kauoha ma ka buke a Mose.
And they set the Priests in their order, and the Leuites in their courses ouer the seruice of God in Ierusalem, as it is written in the booke of Moses.
19 A malama aku la ka poe i pio i ka moliaola, i ka la umikumamaha o ka malama mua.
And the childre of the captiuitie kept the Passeouer on ye fourtenth day of the first moneth.
20 No ka mea, ua huikala pu ia na kahuna, a me na Levi, a ua maemae lakou a pau, a kalua aku la lakou i ka moliaola, no ka poe i pio a pau, a no ko lakou poe hoahanau na kahuna, a no lakou iho.
(For the Priests and the Leuites were purified altogether) and they killed the Passeouer for all the children of the captiuitie, and for their brethren the Priests, and for themselues.
21 A ai iho la na mamo a Iseraela, ka poe i hoi mai, mai ke pio ana mai, a me ka poe a pau i hookaawale ia lakou iho mai ka mea haumia o na lahuikanaka o ka aina, e imi ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela;
So the children of Israel which were come againe out of captiuitie, and all such as had separated themselues vnto them, from the filthines of the Heathen of the land, to seeke the Lord God of Israel, did eate,
22 A malama lakou i ka ahaaina berena hu ole i na la ehiku me ka olioli: no ka mea, o Iehova ka i hoohauoli mai ia lakou, a hoohuli mai i ka naau o ke alii o Asuria ia lakou, e hooikaika i ko lakou lima i ka hana ana i ka hale o ke Akua, ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
And they kept ye feast of vnleauened bread seuen dayes with ioy: for the Lord had made them glad, and turned the heart of the King of Asshur vnto them, to incourage them in the worke of the house of God, euen the God of Israel.
