1 EIA ka poe koikoi o na makua, a me ke kuauhau o lakou, ka poe i pii pu me au, mai Babulona aku, i ke au ia Aretasaseta ke alii.
These are the leaders of their ancestors' families who left Babylon with me during the reign of King Artaxerxes.

Those of the descendants of Adonikam came later. These were their names: Eliphelet, Jeuel, and Shemaiah and with them came sixty males.
14 A no na mamo hoi a Bigevai; o Utai, a o Zabuda, a me laua no he kanahiku na kane.
Of the descendants of Bigvai, Uthai and Zaccur and with him were listed seventy males.
15 A hoakoakoa ae la au ia lakou ma ka muliwai e kahe ana i Ahava, a malaila makou i hoomoana'i i na ia ekolu: a nana aku la au i na kanaka, a me na kahuna, aole i lona malaila kekahi o na mamo a Levi.
I gathered the travelers at the canal that goes to Ahava, and we camped there three days. I examined the people and priests, but could not find any descendants of Levi there.
16 Alaila kii aku la au ia Eliezera, a ia Ariela, a ia Simaia, a ia Elenatana, a ia Iariba, a ia Elenatana, a ia Nataua, a ia Zekaria, a me Mesulama, he mau mea koikoi; a ia Ioiariba, a ia Elenatana, he mau mea naauao.
So I sent for Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, and Elnathan and Nathan, Zechariah, and Meshullam—who were leaders—and for Joiarib and Elnathan—who were teachers.
17 A hoouna aku au ia lakou e kauoha ia Ido, i ka luna ma ke kauwahi i Kasipia, a hai aku au ia lakou i na mea a lakou e olelo aku ai ia Ido, a me kona mau houhanau, ka poe Netini ma ke kauwahi i Kaeipia, e lawe mai lakou na makou i mea lawelawe no ka hale o ko kakou Akua.
Next I sent them to Iddo, the leader in Kasiphia. I told them what to say to Iddo and his relatives, the temple servants living in Kasiphia, that is, to send to us servants for the house of God.
18 A ma ka lima o ke Akua maluna o makou e pono ai, lawe mai lakou no makou i kekahi kanaka naauao no na keiki a Maheli, ka mamo a Levi, ke keiki a Iseraela; a ia Serebia, me kana mau keiki, a me kona mau hoahanau he umikumamawalu;
So they sent us by our God's good hand a man named Sherebiah, a prudent man. He was a descendant of Mahli son of Levi son of Israel. He came with eighteen sons and brothers.
19 A me Hasabia, a me ia no o Iesaia, no na mamo a Merari, kona mau hoahanau, a me ka lakou mau keiki, he iwakalua;
With him came Hashabiah. There also were Jeshaiah, one of the sons of Merari, with his brothers and their sons, twenty men in all.
20 A no ka poe Netini, na mea a Davida, a me na luna i hoonoho ai no ka oihana Levi, elua haneri a me ka iwakalua Netini: ua kaheaia lakou a pau ma ka inoa.
Of those assigned to serve in the temple, whom David and his officials gave to serve the Levites: 220, each of them assigned by name.
21 Alaila kukala aku au i hookeai malaila ma ka muliwai o Ahava, i hoohaahaa iho ai makou ia makou iho imua o ko kakou Akua, e imi aku ia ia i aoao pono no makou, a no ka makou kamalii, a no ka makou waiwai a pau.
Then I proclaimed a fast at the Ahava Canal to humble ourselves before God, to seek a straight path from him for us, our little ones, and all our possessions.
22 No ka mea ua hilahila no wau e noi aku i ke alii i poe koa, a me na holohololio, e kokua ia makou no na enemi ma ke ala: no ka mea, ua olelo makou i ke alii, i ka i ana'ku, O ka lima o ko kakou Akua maluna o lakou a pau e pono ai, o ka poe e imi ana ia ia; aka, ua ku e mai kona mana a me kona huhu i ka poe a pau e haalele ia ia.
I was ashamed to ask the king for an army or horsemen to protect us against enemies along the way, since we had said to the king, 'The hand of our God is on all who seek him for good, but his might and wrath are on all who forget him.'
23 A hookeai iho la makou, n nonoi aku i ko kakou Akua no keia mea; a hoolohe mai no ia ia makou.
So we fasted and sought God about this, and we pled to him.
24 Alaila hookaawale au i na luna kahuna he umikumamalua. o Serebia, o Hasabia, a ho umi o ko laua mau hoahanau me laua;
Next I selected twelve men from the priestly officials: Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers.
25 A kaupaona iho la au no lakou i ke kala, a i ke gula, a me na kiaha, ka manawalea no ka hale o ko kakou Akua, a ke alii, a me kona poe kakaolelo, a me kona poe luna, a me ka Iseraela a pau e noho ana, i haawi mai ai:
I weighed out for them silver, gold, and the objects and offerings for the house of God that the king, his counselors and officials, and all Israel had freely offered.
26 Kaupaona aku la nu no ko lakou lima i eono haneri a mo kanalima talena kala, a me na kiaha kala hookahi haneri talena, a me ke gula hookahi haneri talena;
So I weighed into their hand 650 talents of silver, one hundred talents of silver objects, one hundred talents of gold,
27 A he iwakalua bola gula, hookahi tausani derama; a elua kiaha keleawe melemele maikai, he nui ke kumukuai, e like me ke gula.
twenty gold bowls that were together valued at one thousand darics, and two well-polished bronze vessels as precious as gold.
28 A i aku la au ia lakou, Ua hoolaaia oukou no Iehova: ua hoolaaia no hoi na kiaha; a o ke kala a me ke gula, he makana wale no Iehova ke Akua o ko oukou poe kupuna.
Then I said to them, “You are consecrated to Yahweh, and these objects also, and the silver and gold are a freewill offering to Yahweh, the God of your ancestors.
29 E makaala oukou, a e malama hoi, a kaupaona oukou ia mea imua o na luna kahuna a me na Levi, a me na mea koikoi o na makua o ka Iseraela ma Ierusalema, iloko o na keena ma ka hale o Iehova.
Watch over them and keep them until you weigh them out before the priestly officials, Levites, and leaders of the ancestors' clans of Israel in Jerusalem in the rooms of God's house.”
30 A lawe ae la na kahuna a me na Levi i ke kala, a me ke gula, a me na kiaha i kaupaonaia, e hali aku i Ierusalema ma ka hale o ko kakou Akua.
The priests and the Levites accepted the weighed silver, gold, and the objects in order to take them to Jerusalem, to our God's house.
31 A haalele makou i ka muliwai o Ahava, i ka la umikumamalua o ka malama mua, e hele i Ierusalema; a maluna o makou ka lima o ko makou Akua, a hoopakele no oia ia makou i ka lima o ka enemi, a me ka poe hoohalua ma ke ala.
We went out from the Ahava Canal on the twelfth day of the first month to go to Jerusalem. The hand of our God was on us; he protected us from the hand of the enemy and the ones who wished to ambush us along the road.
32 A hele mai makou i Ierusalema, a noho malaila i na la ekolu.
So we entered Jerusalem and stayed there for three days.
33 A i ka ha o ka la, kaupaonaia ke kala, a me ke gula, a me na kiaha, iloko o ka hale o ko kakou Akua, ma ka lima o Meremota, ke keiki a Uria ke kahana; a me ia no o Eleazara, ke keiki a Pioehasa; a me lakou no o Iozabada, ke keiki a Iesua, a o Noadia, ke keiki a Binui, no na Levi;
Then on the fourth day the silver, gold, and objects were weighed out in our God's house into the hand of Meremoth son of Uriah the priest, and with him were Eleazar son of Phinehas, Jozabad son of Jeshua, and Noadiah son of Binnui the Levite.
34 Ma ka helu ana, a me ke kaupaona ana, o na mea a pau: a o na paona a pau, ua kakauia i kela manawa.
The number and weight of everything was determined. All the weight was written down at that time.
35 A o na keiki a ka poe pio i hoi hou mai, kaumaha aku lakou i na mohaikuni i ke Akua o ka Iseraela, he umikumamalua na bipikane no ka Iseraela a pau, a he kanaiwakumamaono na hipakane, a he kauahikukumamahiku na keikihipa, he umikumamalua na kaokane, i mohai hala: oia mea a pau i mohaikuni ia Iehova.
The ones who came back from the captivity, the people of exile, offered burnt offerings to the God of Israel: twelve bulls for all of Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, and twelve male goats as a sin offering. All were a burnt offering for Yahweh.
36 A haawi aku lakou i na kauoha a ke alii, i na kiaaina, a me na'lii aimoku o ke alii ma keia aoao o ka muliwai; a kokua lakou i na kauaka, a me ka hale o ke Akua.
Then they gave the king's decrees to the king's high officials and the governors in the Province Beyond the River, and they helped the people and the house of God.
