E higa mokwongo mar loch Sairas ruodh Pasia, mondo ochop singo mar wach Jehova Nyasaye mane Jeremia okoro, Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo gi chuny Sairas ruodh Pasia mondo ogol lendo e pinye duto koketo e ndiko kama:
2 “Bw’ati bw’ayogera Kuulo kabaka w’e Buperusi nti, “‘Obwakabaka bwonna obw’omu nsi Mukama Katonda w’eggulu abumpadde, era annonze okumuzimbira yeekaalu e Yerusaalemi mu Yuda.
Ma e gima Sairas ruodh Pasia wacho: “‘Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach polo, osemiya pinjeruodhi duto manie piny kendo oseyiera mondo agerne hekalu e Jerusalem manie piny Juda.
3 Omuntu yenna mu mmwe abantu be, Katonda we abeere naye, agende e Yerusaalemi mu Yuda addaabirize yeekaalu ya Mukama, Katonda wa Isirayiri, Katonda ali mu Yerusaalemi.
Ngʼato angʼata kuom joge manie dieru, mad Nyasache bed kode, mondo odhi Jerusalem man Juda mi oger hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, Nyasaye man Jerusalem.
4 Na buli Muyisirayiri eyasigalawo gy’ali, abantu abo baabeeramu, banaamuwa ffeeza ne zaabu, n’ebintu n’ebisolo ebirundibwa, obutasaako ebiweebwayo bye bawaayo ku bwabwe ebya yeekaalu ya Katonda eri mu Yerusaalemi.’”
To ji moa kamoro amora ma joma otony nyalo bet ni koro odakie mondo ochiwne fedha gi dhahabu, kod gik miuso gi kweth mag dhok, to gi chiwo mar hera ne hekalu mar Nyasaye e Jerusalem.’”
5 Awo abakulu b’ennyumba za Yuda ne Benyamini, ne bakabona, n’Abaleevi, na buli muntu Katonda gwe yakubiriza, ne beeteekateeka okwambuka okugenda okuddaabiriza yeekaalu ya Mukama eri mu Yerusaalemi.
Eka jotend anywola mar Juda kod Benjamin, gi jodolo kod jo-Lawi, ngʼato angʼata ma Nyasaye nomulo chunye, noikore dhi kendo gero od Jehova Nyasaye man Jerusalem.
6 Baliraanwa baabwe bonna ne babawa ebintu ebya ffeeza ne zaabu, n’ebintu ebirala n’ebisolo ebirundibwa, n’ebirabo eby’omuwendo omungi, okwo nga kwe kuli ebiweebwayo bye baawaayo nga beeyagalidde.
Jobathgi duto noyworogi gi gige fedha kod dhahabu, kod gik miuso gi kweth mag dhok, kod mich ma nengone tek, kaachiel gi chiwo mar hera.
7 Ebintu ebyali mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, Nebukadduneeza bye yanyaga mu Yerusaalemi n’abiteeka mu ssabo lya bakatonda be, Kabaka Kuulo, n’abiggyayo.
Kata kamano, Ruoth Sairas nochiwo gigo mane mag hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, mane Nebukadneza oyudo osegolo Jerusalem mi otero e hekalu mar nyasache.
8 Kuulo kabaka w’e Buperusi n’abikwasa Misuledasi omuwanika, eyabikwasa Sesubazzali omulangira wa Yuda.
Sairas ruodh Pasia nowacho ni okelgi gi jakeno, Mithredath, mane okwanogi ne Sheshbaza jatend Juda.
9 Guno gwe gwali omuwendo gwabyo: Esowaani eza zaabu amakumi asatu 30, Esowaani eza ffeeza lukumi 1,000, Ebiso ebya ffeeza amakumi abiri mu mwenda 29,
Ma e kwan gik mane ochiw: Dise mag dhahabu piero adek, dise mag fedha alufu achiel, kareche mag fedha piero ariyo gochiko,
10 Ebibya ebya zaabu amakumi asatu 30, n’ebibya ebya ffeeza ebigenderako ebikumi bina mu kumi 410, n’ebintu ebirala lukumi 1,000.
bakunde mag dhahabu piero adek, bakunde machalre mag fedha mia angʼwen gapar, gik mamoko mitiyogo alufu achiel.
11 Byonna awamu ebintu ebya zaabu ne ffeeza byali enkumi ttaano mu ebikumi bina. Sesubazzali n’agenda nabyo byonna e Yerusaalemi okuva e Babulooni mu buwaŋŋanguse.
Gigo duto mane itiyogo mane olosi gi dhahabu kod fedha noromo alufu abich kod mia angʼwen. Sheshbaza nobiro gi gigi duto e kinde mane joma ne otwe noa Babulon kadhi Jerusalem.
