< U-Ezra 4 >

1 Kwathi lapho izitha zakoJuda lakoBhenjamini sezizwile ukuthi ababeyizithunjwa basebesakha ithempeli likaThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli
Haddaba cadaawayaashii reer Yahuudah iyo reer Benyaamiin markay maqleen inay kuwii maxaabiistii ahaan jiray macbud u dhisayeen Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil,
2 beza kuZerubhabheli lakulabo ababezinhloko zezimuli bathi, “Yekelani silincedise ukwakha ngoba lathi, njengani, siyamdinga uNkulunkulu wenu njalo kukade sisenza imihlatshelo kuye kusukela esikhathini sika-Esarihadoni inkosi yase-Asiriya, onguye owasiletha lapha.”
ayay u soo dhowaadeen Serubaabel, iyo madaxdii qabiilooyinka, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Annana aan idinla dhisno, waayo, Ilaahiinna waan u doonnaa sidiinnoo kale, oo isaga allabari baan u bixin jirnay tan iyo waagii uu Eesar Xaddoon oo boqorkii Ashuur ahaa halkan na keenay.
3 Kodwa uZerubhabheli, loJeshuwa labo bonke ababezinhloko zezimuli zako-Israyeli baphendula bathi, “Kalilani lakho ukwakhisana lathi ithempeli likaNkulunkulu wethu. Thina sodwa sizalakha, silakhela uThixo, uNkulunkulu wako-Israyeli, njengokulaywa kwethu nguKhurosi, inkosi yasePhezhiya.”
Laakiinse Serubaabel iyo Yeeshuuca, iyo madaxdii qabiilooyinka reer Israa'iil intoodii kaleba waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Idinka waxba idinkama gelin inaad Ilaahayaga guri noola dhistaan, laakiinse annagaa dhammaantayo guri u dhisayna Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil, sidii uu Boqor Kuuros oo ahaa boqorkii Faaris nagu amray.
4 Kwasekusithi abantu balelolizwe baqalisa ukubadondisa abantu bakoJuda babenza besaba ukuqhubeka besakha.
Markaasaa dadkii dalka degganaa waxay daaliyeen gacmihii dadkii reer Yahuudah, oo waxdhisiddiina way ka cabsiiyeen,
5 Bathenga abacebisi bokudunga umsebenzi bawunyampise ngasosonke isikhathi sokubusa kukaKhurosi inkosi yasePhezhiya kwaze kwaba sekubuseni kukaDariyu inkosi yasePhezhiya.
oo waxay u soo kiraysteen taliyayaal si ay qasdigoodii uga xumeeyaan, Kuuros oo ahaa boqorkii Faaris wakhtigiisii oo dhan, iyo tan iyo xataa dowladnimadii Daariyus oo ahaa boqorkii Faaris.
6 Ekuqaleni kokubusa kuka-Ahasuweru bethesa abantu bakoJuda labaseJerusalema icala.
Oo waagii Ahashwerus boqortooyada qabsaday markii dowladnimadiisu bilaabatay ayay ashtako ka soo qoreen dadkii degganaa Yahuudah iyo Yeruusaalem.
7 Njalo kwathi ngezinsuku zika-Athazekisisi inkosi yasePhezhiya uBhishilamu, loMithiredathi loThabheli labo bonke abangane babo baloba incwadi isiya ku-Athazekisisi. Incwadi leyo yayibhalwe ngolimi lwesi-Aramayikhi ngendlela yokuloba kwawo ama-Aramu.
Oo wakhtigii Artaxshasta ayaa Bishlaam, Mitredaad, Taabeel, iyo saaxiibbadiisii kale arji u soo qoray Artaxshasta oo ahaa boqorkii Faaris, oo warqadda farteedu waxay ahayd tan Suuriya, waxaana lagu micneeyey afka Suuriya.
8 URehumi umlawuli webutho loShimishayi unobhala babhala incwadi isiya ku-Athazekisisi inkosi besola iJerusalema besithi:
Taliyihii Rexuum ahaa iyo karraanigii Shimshay ahaa ayaa sidan warqad Yeruusaalem ka gees ah ugu soo qoray Boqor Artaxshasta.
9 URehumi umlawuli webutho loShimishayi unobhala kanye labo bonke abahlangene labo, abehluleli lezinduna zabantu abasuka eThripholi, ePhezhiya, e-Ereki leBhabhiloni lama-Elamu aseSusa,
Markaasaa waxaa qoray taliyihii Rexuum ahaa iyo karraanigii Shimshay ahaa, iyo saaxiibbadoodii kale oo ahaa reer Diinaayee, iyo reer Afarsatkaayee, iyo reer Tarfelaayee, iyo reer Afaarsaayee, iyo reer Arkewaayee, iyo reer Baabuloon, iyo reer Shuushankaayee, iyo reer Dehaayee, iyo reer Ceelaam,
10 kanye labanye abantu inkosi enkulu ehloniphekayo u-Ashuribhaniphali (u-Osinaphari) eyabaxotshayo yayabahlalisa edolobheni laseSamariya lakwezinye izindawo ngaphetsheya kweYufrathe.
iyo quruumaha intoodii kale oo boqorkii weynaa oo gobta ahaa Aasnafar u soo gudbiyey oo dejiyey magaalada Samaariya iyo dalka intiisa kaloo webiga ka shishaysa iyo wixii la mid ah.
11 (Nanka amazwi encwadi leyo abayibhalayo.) Kuyo iNkosi u-Athazekisisi, Ivela ezincekwini zakho, abantu abangaphetsheya kweYufrathe:
Kanu waa naqilkii warqaddii ay Boqor Artaxshasta u direen: Dadka webiga ka shisheeya, oo addoommadaada ahu waxay leeyihiin,
12 Inkosi ifanele yazi ukuthi amaJuda afikayo kithi lapha evela kuwe aseye eJerusalema njalo sebelakha kutsha idolobho lelo elihlamukayo, elibi kakhulu. Sebevusa imiduli bevuselela lezisekelo.
Boqorow, bal ogow, in Yuhuuddii kaa soo kacday ay Yeruusaalem noogu yimaadeen, oo ay dhisayaan magaaladii caasiga ahayd oo xumayd, oo derbiyadii way dhammeeyeen, aasaaskiina way hagaajiyeen.
13 Phezu kwalokho inkosi kufanele ukuba yazi ukuthi aluba idolobho leli lingaze lakhiwe lemiduli yalo imiswe njalo, kakusayikubhadalwa imithelo lenkongozelo yenkosi, lomthetho wokungenisa impahla ezweni, besekusithi-ke isikhwama senkosi sisilele izimali.
Haddaba boqorow bal ogow, in haddii magaaladan la dhiso, oo derbiyadeeda la dhammeeyo, ayan iyagu markaas bixin doonin gabbaro, canshuur, amase baad, ugudambaystana boqorraday wax yeeli doontaa.
14 Pho njengoba thina silomlandu ophuma esigodlweni njalo kungafanelanga ukuthi sibone inkosi idelelwa, sithumela umbiko lo ukuyazisa inkosi,
Haddaba annagu waxaannu cunnaa cusbada hoygaaga, boqorow, oo naguma habboona inaannu aragno adigoo lagu ciso jebiyey, oo sidaas daraaddeed ayaan kuugu soo cid dirnay oo kuu ogeysiinnay, boqorow,
15 ukuze kuhlolisiswe ezingwalweni zezindaba ezatshiywa yilabo abakwandulelayo. Kulezongwalo uzathola ukuthi idolobho leli lidolobho lokuhlamuka, lilohlupho emakhosini lakwezinye izigaba zombuso, liyindawo yokuhlamuka kulokhu kwasukela endulo. Yilokho okwabangela ukubhidlizwa kwalelidolobho.
si loo baadho buugaggii taariikhda oo awowayaashaa, oo sidaasaad buugagga taariikhda uga heli doontaa oo u ogaan doontaa in magaaladanu tahay magaalo caasi ah, oo ay u waxyeello badan tahay boqorrada iyo gobolladaba, iyo in iyada waagii hore fallaagada laga kiciyey, oo sababtaas aawadeed baa magaaladan loo dumiyey.
16 Inkosi siyazisela ukuthi aluba idolobho leli lingakhiwa, imiswe njalo imiduli yalo, izakube ingasasalanga lalutho ngaphetsheya kweYufrathe.
Boqorow, waxaannu ku ogeysiinaynaa in haddii magaaladan la dhiso, oo derbiyadeeda la dhammeeyo, aadan sababtaas aawadeed waxba qayb ku yeelan doonin inta webiga ka shishaysa.
17 Inkosi yathumela impendulo le: KuRehumi umlawuli wempi loShimishayi unobhala labo bonke abaphathisana labo abahlala eSamariya lakwezinye izindawo ngaphetsheya kweYufrathe: Ngiyalibingelela.
Markaasaa boqorkii wuxuu warqad jawaab ah u soo diray taliyihii Rexuum ahaa, iyo karraanigii Shimshay ahaa, iyo intii kaloo saaxiibbadooda ahayd oo Samaariya degganaa, iyo dadkii kaloo webiga shishadiisa degganaa, oo wuxuu yidhi, Nabad iyo wax la mid ahu korkiinna ha ahaadeen.
18 Incwadi elasithumela yona isiguqulwe ulimi yabalwa phambi kwami.
Warqaddii aad noo soo dirteen bayaan ayaa hortayda loogu akhriyey.
19 Ngakhupha ilizwi kwaphenywa, kwafunyanwa ukuthi idolobho leli lilembali ende eyokuvukela amakhosi, liyindawo yokuhlamuka lokuxhwala.
Oo anna amar baan bixiyey, oo buugaggii baa la baadhay, oo waxaa la helay in magaaladanu waagii hore boqorro ku kici jirtay, iyo in dhexdeeda lagu caasiyoobi jiray oo lagu fallaagoobi jiray.
20 IJerusalema isike yaba lamakhosi alamandla ayebusa kulolonke elangaphetsheya kweYufrathe, kubhadalwa kuwo imithelo, inkongozelo yenkosi lemithelo yokungenisa impahla elizweni.
Oo weliba Yeruusaalem waxaa xukumi jiray boqorro xoog badan, oo waxay u talin jireen inta webiga ka shishaysa oo dhan, oo gabbaro, iyo canshuur, iyo baadba waa la siin jiray.
21 Manje-ke khuphani umlayo kulawomadoda ukuthi kabamise umsebenzi, ukuze idolobho leli lingakhiwa ngize ngitsho mina.
Haddaba idinku waxaad amar ku bixisaan in nimankaasu shuqulka joojiyaan iyo inaan magaaladaas la dhisin ilaa aan amar bixiyo.
22 Nanzelelani ukuthi lingayilibali indaba le. Kuyekelelwani indaba le ikhula yona ilimaza izifiso zenkosi?
Oo idinku iska jira inaydnaan xaalkaas daynin, waayo, bal maxaa khasaare ugu sii kordhaya in waxyeello boqorrada gaadho?
23 Incwadi yeNkosi u-Athazekisisi yonela ukubalelwa uRehumi loShimishayi unobhala lalabo ababephathisa bahle bahamba masinyane kubaJuda eJerusalema bababamba ngamandla ukumisa umsebenzi.
Oo markii Boqor Artaxshasta warqaddiisii naqilkeedii lagu hor akhriyey Rexuum iyo karraanigii Shimshay ahaa, iyo saaxiibbadood, haddiiba waxay degdeg ugu tageen Yuhuuddii Yeruusaalem joogtay, oo waxay ku joojiyeen qasab iyo xoog.
24 Kanjalo umsebenzi wendlu kaNkulunkulu eJerusalema wema kwaze kwaba ngumnyaka wesibili wokubusa kukaDariyu inkosi yasePhezhiya.
Oo markaasuu joogsaday shuqulkii guriga Ilaah Yeruusaalem ku yaal; oo wuxuu joogsaday ilaa sannaddii labaad oo dowladnimadii Daariyus oo boqorkii Faaris ahaa.
