< U-Ezra 5 >
1 Abaprofethi, oHagayi umprofethi loZekhariya indodana kaIdo, basebeprofetha kumaJuda ayekoJuda laseJerusalema, ebizweni likaNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli phezu kwawo.
Azɔ la, Nyagblɔɖilawo Hagai kple Zekaria, Ido ƒe dzidzimeviwo gblɔ nya ɖi na Yudatɔ siwo le Yuda kple Yerusalem, le Israel ƒe Mawu, ame si nɔ wo dzi ɖum la ƒe ŋkɔ me.
2 Khonokho kwasuka oZerubhabheli indodana kaSalatiyeli loJeshuwa indodana kaJozadaki, baqala ukwakha indlu kaNkulunkulu eseJerusalema, njalo kanye labo abaprofethi bakaNkulunkulu bebasekela.
Tete Zerubabel, Sealtiel ƒe vi kple Yesua, Yozadek ƒe vi, wogayi Mawu ƒe aƒe si le Yerusalem la gbugbɔtu ƒe dɔ dzi, eye Mawu ƒe Nyagblɔɖilawo nɔ wo gbɔ, nɔ kpekpem ɖe wo ŋu.
3 Ngalesosikhathi kwafika kibo oTathenayi umbusi nganeno komfula loShethari-Bozenayi, labangane babo, bakhuluma kanje kibo: Ngubani obeke umthetho kini wokwakha lindlu lokuqedisa lumduli?
Le ɣe ma ɣi me la, Frat tɔsisi la godo nuto la me ƒe mɔmefia, Tatenai, Setar Bozenai kple wo ŋutimewo yi ɖabia wo be, “Ame kae ɖe mɔ na mi be miagbugbɔ gbedoxɔ sia kple xɔ sia ƒe gliwo aɖo?”
4 Sasesibatshela ngokunjalo: Ngobani amabizo abantu abakha lesisakhiwo?
Wogabia wo be, “Ŋutsu siwo le teƒe sia tum la ƒe ŋkɔwo ɖe?”
5 Kodwa ilihlo likaNkulunkulu wabo laliphezu kwabadala bamaJuda, ukuthi kababenzanga beme, ize ifike leyondaba kuDariyusi, baze babuyisele-ke incwadi ngayo.
Ke Yehowa ƒe ŋku nɔ Yudatɔwo ƒe dumegãwo ta kpɔm, ale womete ŋu ɖo asi wo dzi o va se ɖe esime woaŋlɔ agbalẽ na Darius, eye wòaɖo eŋu hafi woanya afɔ si woaɖe.
6 Ikhophi yencwadi oTathenayi umbusi nganeno komfula loShethari-Bozenayi labangane bakhe amaAfarisathiki ayenganeno komfula abayithumela kuDariyusi inkosi;
Esia nye nu si Tatenai, Frat tɔsisi la godo ƒe mɔmefia kple Setar Bozenai kple wo ŋutimewo kpakple dɔnunɔla siwo le Frat tɔsisi la godo ŋlɔ ɖo ɖe Fia Darius.
7 bathumeza incwadi kuye, njalo kwabhalwa kanje kuyo: KuDariyusi inkosi, ukuthula konke.
Agbalẽa me nyawo yi ale: Na: Fia Darius. Míedo gbe tɔxɛ na wò.
8 Kakwaziwe enkosini ukuthi saya esabelweni sakoJuda, endlini kaNkulunkulu omkhulu, eyakhiwe ngamatshe amakhulu, izigodo sezifakiwe emidulwini; njalo lumsebenzi uyenziwa ngokuphangisa, uphumelela esandleni sabo.
Fia la nenyae be míegbugbɔ yi ɖe Yuda nuto la me, ɖe Mawu gã la ƒe gbedoxɔ me. Ameawo le xɔtudɔ la dzi kple kpe gãwo, eye wole ʋuƒoawo dem gliawo me. Wole dɔ la wɔm kple moveviɖoɖo, eye wòle afɔ tsɔm le woƒe kpɔkplɔ te.
9 Sasesibabuza labobadala sakhuluma kanje kubo: Ngubani obeke umthetho kini wokwakha lindlu lokuqedisa lumduli?
Míebia gbe woƒe dumegãwo be, “Ame kae ɖe mɔ na mi be miagbugbɔ gbedoxɔ sia kple xɔ sia ƒe gliwo aɖo?”
10 Njalo sababuza amabizo abo ukuze sikwazise, ukuze sibhale amabizo abantu abazinhloko zabo.
Míebia woƒe ŋkɔwo hã ta ale be míaŋlɔ woƒe ŋgɔnɔlawo ƒe ŋkɔwo aɖo ɖe wò wòanɔ nyanya na wò.
11 Langokunjalo babuyisela ilizwi kithi besithi: Thina siyizinceku zikaNkulunkulu wamazulu lomhlaba, sakha indlu eyayakhiwe iminyaka eminengi phambi kwalokhu, inkosi enkulu yakoIsrayeli eyayakha yayiqeda.
Esiae nye ŋuɖoɖo si wona mí: “Dziƒo kple anyigba ƒe Mawu la ƒe dɔlawo míenye; míegbugbɔ le gbedoxɔ si wotu ƒe geɖewoe nye esi va yi la tum, gbedoxɔ si Israel ƒe fia xɔŋkɔ aɖe tu, wu enu,
12 Kodwa emva kwalokho obaba bamthukuthelisa uNkulunkulu wamazulu, wabanikela esandleni sikaNebhukadinezari inkosi yeBhabhiloni, umKhaladiya, owachitha lindlu, wathumbela abantu eBhabhiloni.
gake esi mía fofowo do dziku na dziƒo Mawu la ta la, etsɔ wo de asi na Kaldeatɔ Nebukadnezar, Babilonia fia, ame si gbã gbedoxɔ sia, eye wòɖe aboyo ameawo ɖo ɖe Babilonia.
13 Kodwa ngomnyaka wokuqala kaKoresi inkosi yeBhabhiloni, uKoresi inkosi wamisa umthetho wokwakha lindlu kaNkulunkulu.
“Ke hã la, le Babilonia fia, Sirus ƒe fiaɖuɖu ƒe ƒe gbãtɔ me la, Fia Sirus de se be woagbugbɔ Mawu ƒe aƒe sia atu.
14 Njalo lezitsha zendlu kaNkulunkulu ezingezegolide lesiliva uNebhukadinezari ayezithethe wazisusa ethempelini eliseJerusalema waziletha ethempelini leBhabhiloni, lezo uKoresi inkosi wazikhupha ethempelini leBhabhiloni, zanikwa olebizo elinguSheshibazari ayembeke ukuthi abe ngumbusi.
Gawu la, ena wolɔ sikanu kple klosalonu siwo nɔ Mawu ƒe aƒe la me, esiwo Nebukadnezar lɔ le Yerusalem gbedoxɔ me tsɔ va kɔ ɖe Babilonia gbedoxɔ me la do goe. “Emegbe Fia Sirus tsɔ wo de asi na ŋutsu aɖe si woyɔna be Sesbazar, ame si wòɖo mɔmefiae la si,
15 Wasesithi kuye: Thatha lezizitsha, uyezibeka ethempelini eliseJerusalema, lendlu kaNkulunkulu kayakhiwe endaweni yayo.
gblɔ de esi be, ‘Tsɔ nu siawo eye yi nàkɔ wo ɖe Yerusalem gbedoxɔ me. Gbugbɔ Mawu ƒe aƒe la tu ɖe teƒe si wònɔ tsã.’
16 Ngakho uSheshibazari lo wafika wabeka izisekelo zendlu kaNkulunkulu eseJerusalema; njalo kusukela kulesosikhathi kuze kube khathesi ilokhu isakhiwa, kayikapheli.
“Ale Sesbazar sia va ɖo Mawu ƒe aƒe la ƒe gbedoxɔ gɔme anyi ɖe Yerusalem, eya ta tso gbe ma gbe dzi va se ɖe fifia la, wole etutu dzi, eye womekpɔ wu enu haɖe o.”
17 Ngakho-ke uba kulungile enkosini kakuhlolisiswe endlini yokuligugu kwenkosi ekhona eBhabhiloni ukuthi kungaba yikuthi umthetho wenziwa yini nguKoresi inkosi wokwakha lindlu kaNkulunkulu eJerusalema. Kayithumele-ke intando yenkosi kithi mayelana lalinto.
Azɔ la, ne edze fia la ŋu la, nena woatsa le Babilonia ƒe nyaŋlɔɖigbalẽwo me ne woakpɔe ɖa be vavãe fia Sirus de se aɖe nenema be woagbugbɔ Mawu ƒe aƒe si le Yerusalem la atu hã. Ekema fia la neɖo gbe ɖa tso eƒe nyametsotso ŋuti le nya sia me.
