These are now the chiefe fathers of them, and the genealogie of them that came vp with mee from Babel, in the reigne of King Artahshashte.

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 Aa le tinokako t’i Eliezere, i Ariele, i Semaià naho i Elnatane naho Iaribe naho i Elnatane naho i Natane naho i Zekarià naho i Mesolame, mpiaolo; naho Ioiaribe vaho i Elnatane, mpañoke.
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 Le nafantoko am’iareo ty homb’ amy Ido mpiaolo mb’an-toetse atao Kasifia naho vinolako am’iereo ty ho asa’ iareo amy Ido naho amo rahalahi’e mitoroñe an-toe’ i Kasifiao, ty hinday mpitoroñe mb’amy anjomban’ Añaharey.
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 Aa ty am-pitàn-tsoan’ Añahare’ay ama’ay le nandesa’ iareo ondaty mahihitse, ty ana’ i Maklý, ana’ i Levy, ana’ Israele, toe i Serebià rekets’ o ana’eo naho o rahalahi’eo, folo-valo’ amby;
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 naho i Kasabià; le nindre ama’e t’Iesaià tamo ana’ i Merario, o rahalahy naho ana-dahi’ iareoo, roapolo;
Also Hashabiah, and with him Ieshaiah of the sonnes of Merari, with his brethren, and their sonnes twentie.
20 vaho tamo nte-Natoneo, o natolo’ i Davide naho o roandriañeo am-pitoroñañe o nte-Levio; nte-Natone roan-jato-tsi-roapolo songa tinoñoñe amy tahina’ey.
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 Aa le nitsey fililiran-draho an-tsaka Ahavà eo, hiambanea’ay añatrefan’ Añahare’ay, hipay ama’e ty lalan-tsoa ho anay naho o keleia’aio vaho o vara’ay iabio.
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 Fa ho nisalatse iraho te nihalaly firimboñan-dahindefoñe naho mpiningi-tsoavala amy mpanjakay, hañolora’e anay amo malaso an-dalañeo; ie fa nisaontsy amy mpanjakay, ty hoe: Ty fitàn’ Añahare’ay ro amo mipay aze iabio ho an-kasoa; fe atreatré’e an-kaozarañe naho an-kaviñerañe o mamorintseñe azeo.
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 Aa le ie ty nililira’ay te nitsoek’ an’ Andrianañahare’ay; vaho vinale’e i halali’aiy.
So we fasted, aud besought our God for this: and he was intreated of vs.
24 Aa le navìko ty mpiaolom-pisoroñe folo-ro’amby—i Serebià naho i Kasabià vaho ty folo amo longo’ iareoo.
Then I separated twelue of the chiefe of the Priests, Sherebiah, and Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them,
25 Le linanjako am’ iereo i volafotiy naho i volamenay naho o fanakeo, i nengae’ i mpanjakay naho o mpanolo-keve’eo naho o roandria’eo naho o nte-Israele teo iabio, amy anjomban’ Añahare’aiy.
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 Eka, linanjako am-pità’ iareo ty volafoty talenta enen-jato-tsi-limampolo naho ty fanake volafoty talenta zato naho ty volamena talenta zato;
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 naho koveta volamena roapolo, vilin-drala arivo; naho fanake roe an-torisike mikinokinoke, mañeva volamena.
And twentie basins of golde, of a thousand drammes, and two vessels of shining brasse very good, and precious as golde.
28 Le hoe ty asako am’ iereo, Miavake ho amy Iehovà nahareo, miavake ka o fanakeo; vaho nengaeñe an-tsatrin’ arofo am’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’ areo i volafotiy naho i volamenay.
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 Ijilovo naho ambeno ampara’ t’ie lanjae’ areo amo mpiaolom-pisoroñeo naho amo nte-Levio naho amo roandrian’ anjomban-droae’ Israeleo e Ierosalaime añ’efen’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao.
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 Aa le rinambe’ i mpisoroñe naho nte-Levy rey i volafoty naho volamena linanjay naho o fanakeo hendesa’ iareo mb’e Ierosalaime añe mb’añ’ anjomban’ Añahare’ay mb’eo.
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 Aa le nienga i saka Ahavay zahay amy andro faha folo-ro’ambi’ i volam-baloha’eiy nionjone mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo; naho tama’ay ty fitàn’Añahare’ay vaho rinomba’e am-pitàn-drafelahi’ay naho amy ze niampitse an-dalañe,
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 le nivotrake e Ierosalaime ao vaho nitofa telo andro.
And we came to Ierusalem, and abode there three dayes.
33 Ie amy andro fahefatsey le nandanja i volafotiy naho i volamenay naho o fanakeo, añ’anjomban’ Añahare’ay am-pità’ i Meremote, ana’ i Orià mpisoroñe; nindre tama’e t’i Elazare, ana’ i Pinekase; le nimpiama’ iareo t’Iozabade ana’ Iesoà naho i Noadià, ana’ i Binoy, songa nte-Levy;
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 ie iaby ami’ty ia’e naho an-danja’e; le sinokitse henane zay iaby i lanja’ey.
By number and by weight of euery one, and all the weight was written at the same time.
35 Nañenga soroñe aman’ Añahare’ Israele o anam-pandrohizañe niboak’ am-paneseañeo, bania folo-ro’amby ho a Israele iaby, añondrilahy sivampolo-eneñ’ amby, vik’añondry fitompolo-fito’ amby vaho oselahy folo-ro’amby ho engan-kakeo; hene nisoroñañe am’ Iehovà.
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 Le natolo’ iareo amo mpizaka’ i mpanjakaio naho amo mpifehe alafe’ i Sakaio i nampañitrifañey, vaho nimbae’ iereo ondatio naho i anjomban’ Añaharey.
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.
