Ezera 8
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.
Now these are the heads of their fathers’ households, and this is the genealogy of those who went up with me from Babylon, in the reign of Artaxerxes the king:
2 No na mamo a Pinehasa; o Geresoma; no na mamo a Itamara; o Daniela; no na mamo a Davida; o Hatusa;
Of the sons of Phinehas, Gershom. Of the sons of Ithamar, Daniel. Of the sons of David, Hattush.
3 No na mamo a Sekania, no na mamo a Parosa; o Zekaria: a me ia ua heluia ma ke kuauhau o na kane, hookahi haneri a me kanalima.
Of the sons of Shecaniah, of the sons of Parosh, Zechariah; and with him were listed by genealogy of the males one hundred fifty.

Of the sons of Adonikam, who were the last, their names are: Eliphelet, Jeuel, and Shemaiah; and with them 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 sons of Bigvai, Uthai and Zabbud; and with them 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 them together to the river that runs to Ahava; and there we encamped three days. Then I looked around at the people and the priests, and found there were none of the sons of Levi.
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.
Then I sent for Eliezer, for Ariel, for Shemaiah, for Elnathan, for Jarib, for Elnathan, for Nathan, for Zechariah, and for Meshullam, chief men; also for Joiarib and for 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.
I sent them out to Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia; and I told them what they should tell Iddo and his brothers the temple servants at the place Casiphia, that they should bring to us ministers for the house of our 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;
According to the good hand of our God on us they brought us a man of discretion, of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel, namely Sherebiah, with his sons and his brothers, eighteen;
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;
and Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brothers and their sons, twenty;
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.
and of the temple servants, whom David and the princes had given for the service of the Levites, two hundred twenty temple servants. All of them were mentioned 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 there at the river Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek from him a straight way for us, for our little ones, and for 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.
For I was ashamed to ask of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy on the way, because we had spoken to the king, saying, “The hand of our God is on all those who seek him, for good; but his power and his wrath is against all those who forsake 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 begged our God for this, and he granted our request.
24 Alaila hookaawale au i na luna kahuna he umikumamalua. o Serebia, o Hasabia, a ho umi o ko laua mau hoahanau me laua;
Then I set apart twelve of the chiefs of the priests, even Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers with them,
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:
and weighed to them the silver, the gold, and the vessels, even the offering for the house of our God, which the king, his counselors, his princes, and all Israel there present, had 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;
I weighed into their hand six hundred fifty talents of silver, one hundred talents of silver vessels, 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 bowls of gold weighing one thousand darics, and two vessels of fine bright bronze, 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.
I said to them, “You are holy to Yahweh, and the vessels are holy. The silver and the gold are a free will offering to Yahweh, the God of your fathers.
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 and keep them until you weigh them before the chiefs of the priests, the Levites, and the princes of the fathers’ households of Israel at Jerusalem, in the rooms of Yahweh’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.
So the priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver, the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem to the house of our God.
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.
Then we departed from the river Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go to Jerusalem. The hand of our God was on us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy and the bandits by the way.
32 A hele mai makou i Ierusalema, a noho malaila i na la ekolu.
We came to Jerusalem, and stayed there 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;
On the fourth day the silver and the gold and the vessels were weighed in the house of our God into the hand 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 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.
Everything was counted and weighed; and all the weight was written 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 children of the captivity, who had come out of exile, offered burnt offerings to the God of Israel: twelve bulls for all Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, and twelve male goats for a sin offering. All this was a burnt offering to 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.
They delivered the king’s commissions to the king’s local governors and to the governors beyond the River. So they supported the people and God’s house.
