Esidrasi 3
1 Na sanza ya sambo, bana ya Isalaele oyo bavandaki kati na bingumba na bango basanganaki na Yelusalemi lokola moto moko.
And the seventh month cometh, and the sons of Israel [are] in the cities, and the people are gathered, as one men, unto Jerusalem.
2 Jozue, mwana mobali ya Yotsadaki, elongo na baninga na ye, Banganga-Nzambe, mpe Zorobabeli, mwana mobali ya Shealitieli, elongo na bandeko na ye, babandaki kotonga etumbelo ya Nzambe ya Isalaele mpo na kobonza kuna mbeka ya kotumba kolanda makomi kati na Mobeko ya Moyize, moto na Nzambe.
And rise doth Jeshua son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and they build the altar of the God of Israel, to cause to ascend upon it burnt-offerings, as it is written in the law of Moses, the man of God.
3 Atako bazalaki koyoka bato oyo bazalaki pembeni na bango somo, batongaki etumbelo na likolo ya miboko na yango ya kala mpe babonzaki wana mpo na Yawe mbeka ya kotumba ya tongo mpe ya pokwa.
And they establish the altar on its bases, because of the fear upon them of the peoples of the lands, and he causeth burnt-offerings to ascend upon it to Jehovah, burnt-offerings for the morning and for the evening.
4 Bongo kolanda makomi, basepelaki feti ya Bandako ya kapo, mpe babonzaki mikolo nyonso bambeka ya kotumba kolanda motango oyo ekatama mpo na mokolo na mokolo.
And they make the feast of the booths as it is written, and the burnt-offering of the day daily in number according to the ordinance, the matter of a day in its day;
5 Sima na yango, babonzaki mbeka ya kotumba ya tango nyonso, bambeka ya kotumba oyo ekatama mpo na feti ya ebandeli ya sanza mpe mpo na feti nyonso oyo ekatama mpo na Yawe, mpe bambeka ya kotumba mpo na bato nyonso oyo bazalaki bango moko kopesa makabo wuta na mokano ya mitema na bango.
and after this a continual burnt-offering, and for new moons, and for all appointed seasons of Jehovah that are sanctified; and for every one who is willingly offering a willing-offering to Jehovah.
6 Bato babandaki kobonzela Yawe bambeka ya kotumba na mokolo ya liboso ya sanza ya sambo, atako bamitongelaki nanu te miboko ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
From the first day of the seventh month they have begun to cause burnt-offerings to ascend to Jehovah, and the temple of Jehovah hath not been founded,
7 Bapesaki mbongo epai ya batongi ndako mpe epai ya basharipantie; bongo bapesaki lisusu bilei, masanga mpe mafuta epai ya bato ya Sidoni mpe ya Tiri mpo ete bamema, na nzela ya ebale monene, banzete ya sedele longwa na Libani kino na Jafa, na ndingisa ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi.
and they give money to hewers and to artificers, and food, and drink, and oil to Zidonians and to Tyrians, to bring in cedar-trees from Lebanon unto the sea of Joppa, according to the permission of Cyrus king of Persia concerning them.
8 Na sanza ya mibale ya mobu ya mibale sima na bango kokoma na Ndako ya Nzambe kati na Yelusalemi, Zorobabeli, mwana mobali ya Shealitieli; Jozue, mwana mobali ya Yotsadaki, elongo na bandeko na bango mosusu, Banganga-Nzambe, Balevi mpe bato nyonso oyo bazongaki na Yelusalemi wuta na bowumbu, babandaki misala ya kotonga. Baponaki Balevi oyo bazalaki na mibu kobanda tuku mibale mpe komata mpo ete balandela misala ya kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe.
And in the second year of their coming in unto the house of God, to Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all those coming from the captivity to Jerusalem, and they appoint the Levites from a son of twenty years and upward, to overlook the work of the house of Jehovah.
9 Jozue elongo na bana na ye ya mibali mpe bandeko na ye ya mibali, Kadimieli elongo na bana na ye ya mibali oyo bazalaki bakitani ya Yuda, bapesamelaki mokumba ya kolandela bato oyo bazalaki kotonga Ndako ya Nzambe. Mpe bakitani ya Enadadi elongo na bana na bango ya mibali mpe bandeko na bango, Balevi, bazalaki kosunga bango.
And Jeshua standeth, [and] his sons, and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, sons of Judah together, to overlook those doing the work in the house of God; the sons of Henadad, [and] their sons and their brethren the Levites.
10 Tango batongi ndako basilisaki kotonga miboko ya Tempelo ya Yawe, Banganga-Nzambe kati na bilamba na bango ya mosala ya bonganga-Nzambe elongo na bakelelo na bango na maboko; Balevi, bakitani ya Azafi, elongo na manzanza, batelemaki na bisika na bango mpo na kokumisa Yawe, kolanda mitindo ya Davidi, mokonzi ya Isalaele.
And those building have founded the temple of Jehovah, and they appoint the priests, clothed, with trumpets, and the Levites, sons of Asaph, with cymbals, to praise Jehovah, by means of [the instruments of] David king of Israel.
11 Bazalaki koyemba banzembo mpo na kokumisa mpe kozongisela Yawe matondi: « Solo, azali malamu, bolingo na Ye mpo na Isalaele ewumelaka seko na seko! » Bongo bato nyonso bazalaki kobeta milolo makasi mpo na kokumisa Yawe mpo ete bazalaki kotia miboko ya Tempelo ya Yawe.
And they respond in praising and in giving thanks to Jehovah, for good, for to the age His kindness [is] over Israel, and all the people have shouted — a great shout — in giving praise to Jehovah, because the house of Jehovah hath been founded.
12 Nzokande, kati na Banganga-Nzambe oyo ya mikolo, kati na Balevi oyo ya mikolo mpe kati na bakambi ya mabota, oyo ya mikolo, ezalaki na ebele oyo bamonaki Tempelo ya liboso; bongo bazalaki kolela na mongongo makasi wana bazalaki kotia miboko ya Tempelo ya sika na miso na bango. Mpe kaka na tango yango, ebele ya bato mosusu bazalaki kosepela na koganga makasi mpe na kobeta milolo nzela moko na maboko.
And many of the priests, and the Levites, and the heads of the fathers, the aged men who had seen the first house — in this house being founded before their eyes — are weeping with a loud voice, and many with a shout, in joy, lifting up the voice;
13 Boye bato bakokaki te kokesenisa makelele ya bato oyo bazali koganga mpo na esengo mpe makelele ya bato oyo bazali kolela, pamba te bato bazalaki koganga makasi mpe makelele na bango ezalaki koyokana kino na mosika.
and the people are not discerning the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people, for the people are shouting — a great shout — and the noise hath been heard unto a distance.
