7 Hanki kini ne' Artaserksisi'ma kinima manino egeno 7nima hia kafufina, Ezra'ene mago'a Israeli vahe'ene, pristi vahe'ene Livae naga'ene, zagame'ma nehaza vahe'ene, ra mono no kafante'ma kvahu vahe'ene, ra mono nompi eri'za vahe'mo'zanena Ezra'ene Babilonia atre'za Jerusalemi mareri'naze.

Ngoba u-Ezra wayezinikele ekufundeni lokugcina uMthetho kaThixo lokufundisa izimiso zawo ko-Israyeli.
11 Hagi Israeli vahe Ra Anumzamofo kasegene tra kenena, Ezra'a pristi ne' mani'neno, Israeli vahera rempi hunezamia ne' mani'neankino, kini ne' Artaseksisima huvempama huno mago avoma kreno Ezrama ami'nea avomo'a amanage hu'ne.
Nansi incwadi iNkosi u-Athazekisisi ayeyiphe u-Ezra umphristi lomabhalane, indoda eyayifundile ezindabeni zemithetho lezimiso zikaThixo ku-Israyeli:
12 Nagra hakare'a kuma'ma kvama hu'noa kini ne' Artaserksisi'na ama avona kre'na, pristi ne' Ezraga Anumzamofo kasegema antahini hu'nenka, monafima mani'nea Ra Anumzamofo kasegema rempima hu'nezamina ne'moka kre negami'na, musenke atregantoe.
Athazekisisi, nkosi yamakhosi, Ku-Ezra umphristi, umfundisi womthetho kaNkulunkulu wasezulwini: Ngiyabingelela.
13 Nagra menina huvempa naneke huankino, nagrama kvama hu'noa Israeli vahepi, pristi vahepi, Livae naga'ma mani'nezama kagranema Jerusalemi vunaku'ma hanamo'za, amne vugahaze huzmantoe.
Manje-ke ngimisa umthetho wokuthi ingqe ngubani wako-Israyeli osembusweni wami, kugoqela abaphristi labaLevi, ofisa ukuhamba lawe eJerusalema, kahambe.
14 Hanki nagra kini ne'mo'nane antahintahima nenamiza 7ni'a vahe'mo'zane, kagrira hu izo hugantonankinka amne vunka Jerusalemi kumate'ene Juda mopare'ma mani'naza vahe'mo'zanena Ra Anumzanka'amofo kasege avontafe'ma kzampima eri'nana kasegea, amagera nentazafi ome kegahane.
Uthunywa yinkosi labacebisi bayo abayisikhombisa ukuba uyofunisisa ngoJuda langeJerusalema mayelana loMthetho kaNkulunkulu wakho, owuphetheyo.
15 Hanki nagra kini ne'mo'nane antahintahima nenamiza vahe'mo'zanena tavesite musezana silvane golinena Israeli vahe'motma Ra Anumzamofona amunanki, erinka vunka Jerusalemima Agrama nemania mono nompi ome anto.
Njalo ubothatha isiliva legolide elinikwe ngesihle yinkosi labacebisi bayo kuNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ohlala eJerusalema,
16 Hanki Babiloni kumatmimpinti'ma zogi'nana silvane golinena ana zanke hunka erinka vuo. Ana nehunka Babiloni mopafima mani'naza Israeli vahe'ene, pristi vahe'mo'zama, Ra Anumzazmimofo mono noma Jerusalemima me'nefima, ofama huogu'ma zamavesite kami'naza ofanena eri'nenka vuo.
kanye lesiliva legolide lonke ongalizuza elizweni laseBhabhiloni kanye leminikelo yokuzizwela eyabantu labaphristi benikelela ithempeli likaNkulunkulu wabo eJerusalema.
17 Hagi ana zagoa kvahu so'e hu'nenka, Jerusalema kagri Ra Anumzamofo mono nompima me'nea kresramna vu itare'ma kresramnama vanana zantamina, ve bulimakaonki, sipisipi afuki, ve anenta sipisipi afuki hunka miza nesenka, ofama hu'zanena witigi waini tinki hunka ana zagoretira mizaso.
Ngaleyomali umele uthenge inkunzi, lenqama, lamazinyane ezimvu amaduna, ndawonye leminikelo yabo yamabele leyokunathwayo, konke kunikelwe e-alithareni lethempeli likaNkulunkulu wenu eJerusalema.
18 Hanki ana zantamima miza setenankeno'ma mago'ama mesia silvane golinena Ra Anumzamofo avesi avaririta knare'ma hania zana, kagrane kafuhe'zanena tamagri Ra Anumzamofona hunteho.
Wena labazalwane bakho abangamaJuda selingenza lokho okuyabe kufanele ngesiliva legolide eliseleyo, mayelana lentando kaNkulunkulu wenu.
19 Hanki Ra Anumzamofo mono nompima eri'zama erisia zantamima kami'naza zana, erinka Anumzamofo mono nompi Jerusalemi omento.
Hambisani kuNkulunkulu weJerusalema zonke impahla eliziphathisiweyo ezokukhonza ethempelini likaNkulunkulu wenu.
20 Hanki anama nehunkama, Anumzankamofo mono nompima ante'zanku'ma mago'a hanunka, kinimo'na zagoma nentaza nompinti, zagoa erinka atupa'ma hanana zana miza hugahane.
Akuthi loba yini efunekayo ethempelini likaNkulunkulu wenu elifuna ukuthi izuzakale, kayidingwe ngendleko ephuma esikhwameni senkosi.
21 Hanki nagra kini ne' Artaserksisi'na menina huvempa hu'na huanki Yufretisi rantimofo kantu kazigama me'nea kumatmimpima mani'netma zagoma kegavama nehaza vahera amanage hu'na neramasamue, pristi ne' Ezra'a monafinka mani'nea Ra Anumzamofo kasege'a rempi hunezamia ne' mani'neanki, Anumzamofo mono noma kinaku'ma mago'a zanku'ma tamantahigesigeta, ame hutma ana zana amiho.
Mina, iNkosi Athazekisisi ngimisa umthetho wokuthi bonke abaphathi bezikhwama abangaphetsheya kweYufrathe baphe u-Ezra umphristi, umfundisi woMthetho kaNkulunkulu wasezulwini ngokuphangisa loba yini ayicelayo kini,
22 Hianagi ana zantamima amisnazana ama avamena agateretma omiho. Silva 3400'a kiloa agateretma omiho. Hagi witia 13 tausen 500'a kiloa (500 kura) agateretma omiho, ana nehutma waini tina 2000ni'a lita agateretma omiho, olivi masavena 2000ni'a lita agateretma omiho. Hagi hagegura nama'agu avesigahie anama'a amigahaze.
kuze kube ngamathalenta esiliva alikhulu, lamasaka alikhulu engqoloyi, imigqomo elikhulu yewayini, imigqomo elikhulu yamafutha e-oliva, letswayi elingelakulinganiswa.
23 Hanki monafinkama mani'nea Anumzamo'ma mono noma'ama ki'zanku'ma huramante'nia zana kegava hunetma avariri fatgo hiho. E'ina'ma osnageno'a Anumzamo'a nagri kini ne'monane, ne' mofavre naga'niama henkama kinima fore'ma hanaza naga'enena arimpa aherantegahie.
Ingqe yini emiswe nguNkulunkulu wasezulwini, kakwenziwe ngokukhuthala kusenzelwa ithempeli likaNkulunkulu wasezulwini. Kakudingeki ukuthi ulaka luze lwehliselwe phezu kwenkosi lamadodana ayo.
24 Hagi mago'enema tamasamisuana antahiho, Pristi vaheteti'ene Livae nagateti'ene zagame'ma hu' vaheteti'ene, mono nonkafante'ma kvama nehaza vaheteti'ene, mono nompima eri'zama eneriza vaheteti'ene, mago'a Anumzamofo mono nompima eri'zama eneriza vaheteti'enena ruzahu ruzahu takisi zagoa e'oriho.
Yazini njalo ukuthi kalilamvumo yokubiza imithelo loba inkongozelo yenkosi kumbe imbadalo yokungenisa impahla elizweni kubaphristi, labaLevi, labahlabeleli, labalindimasango, lezinceku zethempelini loba kwezinye izisebenzi zale indlu kaNkulunkulu.
25 Hanki Ezraga antahio, Anumzankamo'a tusi'a knare antahi'zana kami'nea antahizanteti, Yufretisi rantimofo kantu kazigama me'nea kumatmimpima keagama refko hu kva vahera zamazeri otinke'za mani'ne'za, ana vahera kva huzmanteho. Hagi mago'a vahe'ma Anumzamofo kasegema antahi so'ema osu'nesaza vahe'ma mani'nesazana kagra rempi huzamio.
Yikho wena Ezra, ngokuhlakanipha olakho okukaNkulunkulu wakho, beka abathonisi labehluleli ukwahlulela kuhle bonke abantu abangaphetsheya kweYufrathe, bonke abayaziyo imithetho kaNkulunkulu wenu. Kumele ufundise labo abangayaziyo.
26 Hanki mago vahe'mo'ma kagri Anumzamofo kasegema amage ontege, kini ne' Artaserksisi'na nagri kasegenema amage'ma ontesia vahera tamagerfa hu'za ahe frisageno frige, ahenatisageno ru moparega vuge, fenozama'a erige, kina huntege hugahaze.
Lowo ongawulaleliyo umthetho kaNkulunkulu wenu lomthetho wenkosi ngeqiniso umele ajeziswe ngokufa, loba ngokuxotshwa, loba ngokuhluthunelwa impahla loba ngokufakwa entolongweni.
27 Hanki nagra Ezra'na Ra Anumzana tagehe'mokizmi Ra Anumzamofona muse hunte'na agi'a ahentesga nehue. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a kini ne'mofona antahintahi'a azeri otigeno Jerusalemia Ra Anumzamofo mono nona eri avasase nehie.
Udumo kalube kuThixo, uNkulunkulu wabokhokho bethu, okufakileyo enhliziyweni yenkosi ukuletha inhlonipho endlini kaThixo eJerusalema ngale indlela
28 Hanki Ra Anumzamo'a asunku hunanteno, kini ne'ene agri'ma antahintahima nemiza vahe'ene, hankave eri'za vahe'amokizmia antahintahi zamige'za nagrira nazeri so'e nehaze. E'ina hu'negu Ra Anumzana tagri Anumzamo'a nagrane mani'neno hankavea nenamianki'na, Israeli vahepima ugotama hu'naza vahe'a amne zamavare'nugeta Jerusalemia marerigahune.
njalo otshengise umusa wakhe kini phambi kwenkosi labeluleki bakhe lazozonke izinduna zakhe ezilamandla. Ngenxa yokuthi isandla sikaThixo uNkulunkulu wami besiphezu kwami, ngaba lesibindi ngaqoqa amadoda angabakhokheli ko-Israyeli ukuthi bahambe lami.
