15 Nga orani u nufon sac nu pe inyoa soko ma sasla nu Ahava, ac kut aktuktuk we len tolu. Nga konauk lah oasr mwet tol in u sac, a wangin mwet Levi.

And I gathered them to the Riuer that goeth toward Ahaua, and there abode we three dayes: then I viewed the people, and the Priests, and found there none of the sonnes of Leui.

16 Nga sapla suli eu sin mwet kol lalos: Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah, ac Meshullam, oayapa luo mwet luti: Joiarib ac Elnathan.

Therefore sent I to Eliezer, to Ariel, to Shemeiah, and to Elnathan, and to Iarib, and to Elnathan, and to Nathan, and to Zechariah, and to Meshullam the chiefe, and to Ioiarib and to Elnathan, men of vnderstanding,

17 Nga supwalosla nu yorol Iddo, su leumi acn Casiphia, in siyuk sel ac mwet kasru lal su orekma ke Tempul, tuh elos in supwama mwet in kulansap nu sin God in Tempul.

And I gaue them commandement, to Iddo the chiefest at the place of Casiphia, and I told them the words that they should speake to Iddo, and to his brethren the Nethinims at the place of Casiphia, that they should cause the ministers of the house of our God to come vnto vs.

18 Ke lungkulang lun God, elos supwalma Sherebiah, sie mwet fas, su mwet Levi se in fwil natul Mahli; ac mukul singoul oalkosr sin wen natul ac tamulel lal welul tuku.

So by the good hande of our God which was vpon vs, they brought vs a man of vnderstanding of the sonnes of Mahali the sonne of Leui the sonne of Israel, and Sherebiah with his sonnes and his brethren, euen eighteene.

19 Elos oayapa supwalma Hashabiah ac Jeshaiah ke fwil natul Merari, wi mwet longoul sin mwet laltal.

Also Hashabiah, and with him Ieshaiah of the sonnes of Merari, with his brethren, and their sonnes twentie.

20 Sayen mwet inge, oasr luofoko longoul mwet orekma ke Tempul su mwet matu lalos tuh srisrngiyuki sel Tokosra David ac mwet pwapa lal tuh elos in kasru mwet Levi. Simisyukla inelos kais sie.

And of the Nethinims, whom Dauid had set, and the Princes for the seruice of the Leuites, two hundreth and twentie of the Nethinims, which all were named by name.

21 Ingo sisken Inyoa Ahava, nga sapkin tuh kut nukewa in lalo ac akpusiselye kut ye mutun God lasr, ac siyuk sel tuh Elan kol kut ke fahsr lasr ac lisringkuti ac tulik natusr ac ma lasr nukewa.

And there at the Riuer, by Ahaua, I proclaimed a fast, that we might humble our selues before our God, and seeke of him a right way for vs, and for our children, and for all our substance.

22 Nga lukun mwekin in siyuk sin tokosra fulat ke sie u in mwet mweun ma kasrusr fin horse in karingin kut ke fufahsryesr lasr liki kutena mwet lokoalok, mweyen nga fahk nu sel tari lah God lasr El akinsewowoyalos nukewa su lulalfongi El, a El lain ac kalyei kutena su forla lukel.

For I was ashamed to require of the King an armie and horsemen, to helpe vs against the enemie in the way, because we had spoken to the King, saying, The hande of our God is vpon all them that seeke him in goodnesse, but his power and his wrath is against all them that forsake him.

23 Ouinge kut lalo ac pre tuh God Elan karingin kut, ac El topuk pre lasr.

So we fasted, aud besought our God for this: and he was intreated of vs.

24 Inmasrlon mwet tol su fulat, nga tuh sulella Sherebiah, Hashabiah, ac mwet singoul saya.

Then I separated twelue of the chiefe of the Priests, Sherebiah, and Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them,

25 Na nga pauniya silver, gold ac ahlu in kulansap ma tokosra fulat, mwet pwapa ac mwet fulat lal oayapa mwet Israel nukewa elos tuh sang in orekmakinyuk in Tempul, ac nga sang nu sin mwet tol.

And weighed them the siluer and the gold, and the vessels, euen the offring of ye house of our God, which the King and his counselers, and his Princes, and all Israel that were present had offred.

26 Pa inge ma nga sang nu selos: silver — ton 25 100 ahlu silver, kufwen mwe orekma — paun 150 gold — paun 7,500

And I weighed vnto their hand sixe hundreth and fiftie talents of siluer, and in siluer vessel, an hundreth talents, and in golde, an hundreth talents:

27 20 ahlu gold — paun 16 tafu 2 ahlu bronze wowo — lupan molo uh oana molin ahlu gold.

And twentie basins of golde, of a thousand drammes, and two vessels of shining brasse very good, and precious as golde.

28 Nga fahk nu selos, “Kowos mutal ye mutun LEUM GOD lun mwet matu lowos, ac oayapa ahlu silver ac gold su itukyang nu sel ke insewowo, ma inge mutal pac.

And I said vnto them, Ye are consecrate vnto the Lord, and the vessels are consecrate, and the gold and the siluer are freely offred vnto the Lord God of your fathers.

29 Kowos karinganang akwoya nwe ke kowos sun Tempul. Kowos pauniya ma inge infukil lun mwet tol, ac sang nu sin mwet kol lun mwet tol ac mwet Levi, ac nu sin mwet kol lun Israel in Jerusalem.”

Watch ye, and keepe them vntill ye weigh them before the chiefe Priestes and the Leuites, and the chiefe fathers of Israel in Ierusalem in the chambers of the house of the Lord.

30 Ke ma inge mwet tol ac mwet Levi elos eis ac fosrngakin silver, gold, ac kufwen mwe orekma, ac elos usla nu in Tempul Jerusalem.

So the Priests and the Leuites receiued the weight of the siluer and of the golde, and of the vessels to bring them to Ierusalem, vnto the house of our God.

31 Len se aksingoul luo ke malem se meet pa kut mukuiyak liki Inyoa Ahava in som nu Jerusalem. God lasr El wi kut ac karingin kut liki mwet lokoalok ac liki mwet su akola in kasriki kut inkanek ah.

Then we departed from the Riuer of Ahauah on the twelft day of the first moneth, to go vnto Ierusalem, and the hand of our God was vpon vs, and deliuered vs from the hand of the enemie, and of such as layde waite by the way.

32 Ke kut sun acn Jerusalem, kut muta mongla len tolu.

And we came to Ierusalem, and abode there three dayes.

33 Na len se akakosr kut som nu ke Tempul, pauniya silver, gold, ac kufwen mwe orekma, na kut sang nu sel Meremoth mwet tol, wen natul Uriah. Mwet tolu welul pa: Eleazar wen natul Phinehas, ac mwet Levi luo, Jozabad wen natul Jeshua, ac Noadiah wen natul Binnui.

And on ye fourth day was the siluer weighed, and the golde and the vessell in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the sonne of Vriah the Priest, and with him was Eleazar the sonne of Phinehas, and with them was Iozabad the sonne of Ieshua, and Noadiah the sonne of Binnui the Leuites,

34 Ma nukewa oaoala ac paunyuki, ac simla in pacl sac pacna.

By number and by weight of euery one, and all the weight was written at the same time.

35 Na mwet nukewa su foloko liki sruoh elos use mwe sang lalos tuh in mwe kisa firir nu sin God lun Israel. Elos sang cow mukul 12 ke Israel nufon, wi sheep mukul 96, ac sheep fusr 77. Elos oayapa sang nani 12 mwe aknasnasyalos liki ma koluk. Ma inge nukewa mwe kisa firir nu sin LEUM GOD.

Also the children of the captiuitie, which were come out of captiuitie, offred burnt offrings vnto the God of Israel, twelue bullockes for all Israel, ninetie and sixe rammes, seuentie and seuen lambes, and twelue hee goates for sinne: all was a burnt offring of the Lord.

36 Elos oayapa usla leta se ma tokosra fulat el tuh sang nu selos ac sang nu sel governor ac mwet pwapa lun acn Roto-in-Euphrates, na mwet inge elos oru pac kasru lalos nu sin mwet uh ac nu ke alu in Tempul.

And they deliuered the Kings commission vnto the Kings officers, and to the captaines beyond the Riuer: and they promoted the people, and the house of God.
