15 Anis laga gara Ahawaatti yaaʼu biratti walitti isaan nan qabe; nus guyyaa sadii achi turre. Anis yeroon uummataa fi luboota toʼadhetti Lewwota tokko illee isaan keessaa nan dhabe.

And I gathered them together to the river that runneth into the Ahava, and we encamped there three days: and I looked about among the people, and the priests, but of the sons of Levi I found none there.

16 Kanaafuu ani Eliiʼezer, Ariiʼeel, Shemaaʼiyaa, Elnaataan, Yaariib, Elnaataan, Naataan, Zakkaariyaasii fi Meshulaam warra hooggantoota turanii fi Yooyaariibii fi Elnaataan warra hayyoota taʼan sana nan waamsise;

Then sent I for Eli'ezer, for Ariel, for Shema'yah, and for Elnathan, and for Jarib, and for Elnathan, and for Nathan, and for Zechariah, and for Meshullam, the head men; also for Joyarib, and for Elnathan, men of understanding.

17 ergasiis gara Iddoo namicha Kaasiifiyaa bulchuutti isaan nan erge. Anis akka isaan namoota mana Waaqa keenyaa keessa tajaajilan nuuf fidaniif waan isaan Iddoo fi firoota isaa kanneen mana qulqullummaa Kaasifiyaa keessa tajaajilaniin jechuu qaban isaanitti nan hime.

And I sent them with a charge unto Iddo the chief at the place Cassiphia, and I laid the words in their mouth to speak unto Iddo, and to his brother, who were appointed at the place Cassiphia, that they should bring unto us ministers for the house of our God.

18 Isaanis sababii harki Waaqaa tolaan sun nurra tureef sanyii Mahilii keessaa Sheereebiyaa ilma Lewwii, ilma Israaʼel, namicha hubataa tokko ilmaan isaa fi obboloota isaa wajjin walumatti nama 18 nuuf fidan;

And they brought unto us according to the good hand of our God upon us a man of intelligence, of the sons of Machli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel, namely, Sherebyah, with his sons and his brothers, eighteen;

19 akkasumas Hashabiyaa fi ilmaan Meraarii keessaa immoo Yeshaayaa, obboloota isaatii fi ilmaan obboloota isaa walumatti nama 20 nuuf fidan.

And Chashabyah, and with him Jesha'yah of the sons of Merari, his brothers and their sons, twenty.

20 Amma illee tajaajiltoota mana qulqullummaa kanneen Daawitii fi qondaaltonni isaa akka isaan Lewwota gargaaraniif ramadan keessaa nama 220 nuuf fidan. Isaan kunneen hundi maqaa maqaadhaan ni galmeeffaman.

Also of the temple-servants, whom David and the princes had assigned for the service of the Levites two hundred and twenty temple-servants, all of whom were expressed by names.

21 Anis akka nu, ijoolleen keenyaa fi qabeenyi keenya hundi karaa nagaa deemnuuf akka fuula Waaqa keenyaa duratti gad of qabnee kadhannuuf achuma Laga Ahawaa biratti sooman nan labse.

Then did I proclaim a fast there, at the river Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to request from him a prosperous journey for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.

22 Ani sababii nu, “Harki Waaqa keenyaa inni tolaan nama isa abdatu hunda irra jira; warra isa dhiisu hunda irra garuu dheekkamsi isaa ni buʼa” jennee mootichatti himnee turreef akka isaan karaa keenya irratti diinota nurraa dhowwaniif loltootaa fi abbootii fardaa mooticha kadhachuu nan qaanaʼe.

For I was ashamed to ask of the king an army and horsemen to assist us against an enemy on the way; because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all those that seek him for good; but his power and his wrath are against all those that forsake him.

23 Kanaafuu nu soomnee waan kana irratti Waaqa kadhanne; innis kadhaa keenyaaf deebii kenne.

So we fasted and besought our God for this, and he suffered himself to be entreated by us.

24 Anis luboota hangafoota keessaa kudha lama jechuunis Sheereebiyaa, Hashabiyaa fi obboloota isaanii keessaa nama kudhan kophaatti nan baase;

Then set I apart of the chiefs of the priests twelve persons, Sherebyah, Chashabyah, and with them ten of their brethren.

25 anis kennaa meetii, warqee fi miʼaa kan mootichi, gorsitoonni isaa, qondaaltonni isaa fi Israaʼeloonni achi turan hundi mana Waaqa keenyaatiif kennan irraa madaalee isaaniif nan qoode.

And I weighed out unto them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, the offering for the house of our God, which the king, and his counsellors, and his princes, and all Israel there present, had offered.

26 Ani meetii taalaantii 650, miʼa meetii kana taalaantii 100 ulfaatu, warqee taalaantii 100,

And I weighed out into their hand of silver six hundred and fifty talents, and of silver vessels one hundred talents, of gold one hundred talents;

27 waciitii warqee 20 kan daariikii 1,000 baasuu fi miʼa naasii cululuqaa akkuma warqee gatiin isaa guddaa taʼe lama madaaleen qoodeef.

Also twenty cups of gold, of a thousand drachms; and two vessels of fine polished copper, valuable as gold.

28 Anis akkanan isaaniin jedhe; “Isinii fi miʼi kun Waaqayyoof qulqulleeffamtaniirtu. Meetii fi warqeen kun kennaa fedhiidhaan Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii keessaniitiif kennamanii dha.

And I said unto them, Ye are holy unto the Lord; and the vessels are holy; and the silver and the gold are a freewill offering unto the Lord the God of your fathers.

29 Hamma kutaalee mana Waaqayyoo kan Yerusaalem keessaa sana keessatti fuula luboota hangafootaa, fuula Lewwotaa fi hangafoota maatii Israaʼel duratti madaaltanii qooddanitti miʼa kana jabeessaa eegaa.”

Watch ye, and guard them, until ye weigh them out before the chiefs of the priests and the Levites, and the chiefs of the divisions of Israel, at Jerusalem, into the chambers of the house of the Lord.

30 Kanaafuu luboonnii fi Lewwonni meetii, warqee fi miʼa qulqulluu madaalame sana mana Waaqa keenyaa kan Yerusaalem keessaatti geessuuf ni fuudhan.

And the priests and the Levites accepted what was weighed out of the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, to bring the same to Jerusalem to the house of our God.

31 Nus bultii kudha lammaffaa jiʼa tokkoffaatti Yerusaalem dhaquudhaaf Laga Ahawaa biraa kaane. Harki Waaqa keenyaa nurra ture; innis diinotaa fi namoota riphanii karaa irratti nama eegatan jalaa nu baase.

And we departed from the river Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go unto Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was over us, and he delivered us from the hand of any enemy, and of such as lie in wait on the way.

32 Akkasiinis Yerusaalem geenyee bultii sadii achi boqonne.

And we came to Jerusalem, and remained there three days.

33 Nus bultii afuraffaatti mana Waaqa keenyaa keessatti meetii, warqee fi miʼa qulqulluu sana madaallee harka Mereemooti lubicha ilma Uuriyaa sanaatti ni kennine. Eleʼaazaar ilmi Fiinehaas akkasumas Lewwonni jechuunis Yoozaabaad ilmi Yeeshuuʼaa fi Nooʼadiyaan ilmi Binuuyii isa wajjin turan.

And on the fourth day were the silver and the gold and the vessels weighed out in the house of our God into the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriyah the priest; and with him was El'azar the son of Phinehas; and with them was Jozabad the son of Jeshua', and No'adyah the son of Binnui, the Levites;

34 Wanni hundinuus lakkaaʼamee madaalame; ulfinni waan madaalame hundaas yeruma sana ni galmeeffame.

By number and by weight of everything: and all the weight was written down at the same time.

35 Ergasiis boojiʼamtoonni boojuudhaa deebiʼan sun Israaʼel hundaaf jiboota kudha lama, korbeeyyii hoolaa sagaltamii jaʼaa fi xobbaallaa torbaatamii torban aarsaa gubamu, korbeeyyii reʼee kudha lama aarsaa cubbuu godhanii Waaqa Israaʼeliif dhiʼeessan; kun hundi aarsaa gubamu kan Waaqayyoof dhiʼeeffamee dha.

Those that came out of the captivity, the children of the exile, offered burnt-offerings unto the God of Israel, twelve bullocks for all Israel, ninety and six rams, seventy and seven sheep, twelve he-goats for a sin-offering: all as burnt-offerings unto the Lord.

36 Isaan ajaja mootichaa illee ajajjoota mootummaa fi bulchitoota Gama Laga Efraaxiisitti dabarsan. Jarris sabaa fi mana Waaqaa gargaaran.

And they delivered the king's commands unto the king's lieutenants, and to the governors on this side of the river; and these endowed the people, and the house of God.
