< Cesraa 3 >
1 Oo markii bishii toddobaad la gaadhay, oo ay reer binu Israa'iilna iska degganaayeen magaalooyinkoodii, ayaa dadkii oo dhammu ugu soo wada urureen Yeruusaalem sidii nin keliya.
It was the seventh month after the people of Israel came back to their cities, when they gathered together as one man in Jerusalem.
2 Markaasaa waxaa istaagay Yeeshuuca oo ahaa ina Yoosaadaaq, iyo walaalihiisii wadaaddada ahaa, iyo Serubaabel oo ahaa ina Salaatii'eel, iyo walaalihiis, oo waxay dhiseen meeshii allabariga Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil inay ku dul bixiyaan qurbaanno la gubo, sida ay ugu qoran tahay sharcigii Muuse oo ahaa ninka Ilaah.
Jeshua son of Jozadak and his brothers the priests, and Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, and his brothers rose up and built the altar of the God of Israel to offer burnt offerings as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
3 Oo meeshii allabariga waxay saareen saldhiggeedii, waayo, iyagu waxay ka cabsanayeen dadkii dalalka degganaa, oo waxay Rabbiga ugu dul bixiyeen qurbaanno la gubo oo ahaa kuwii subaxnimada iyo kuwii habeennimada.
Then they established the altar on its stand, for dread was on them because of the people of the land. They offered burnt offerings to Yahweh at dawn and evening.
4 Oo iiddii taambuugyadana waxay u iideen sidii ay u qornayd, oo maalin kastana waxay tiro ku bixinayeen qurbaannada la gubo, sidii amarku ahaa, iyo intii maalin kasta layska doonayay;
They also observed the Festival of Shelters as it is written and offered burnt offerings day by day according to the decree, each day's duty on its day.
5 dabadeedna qurbaankii joogtada ahaa, iyo kuwii bilaha cusub, iyo iidihii Rabbiga oo quduuska ahaa, iyo kii qof waluba Rabbiga ikhtiyaarkiisa ugu bixiyey.
Accordingly, there were daily burnt offerings and monthly ones and offerings for all the fixed feasts of Yahweh, along with all the freewill offerings.
6 Oo maalintii kowaad oo bishii toddobaad ayay bilaabeen inay Rabbiga u bixiyaan qurbaanno la gubo, laakiinse macbudka aasaaskiisii weli lama dhigin.
They began to offer up burnt offerings to Yahweh on the first day of the seventh month, although the temple had not been founded.
7 Oo waxay wastaadyadii iyo nijaarradii siiyeen lacag; oo kuwii reer Siidoon iyo kuwii reer Turosna waxay siiyeen cunto, iyo cabniin, iyo saliid si ay geedaha kedarka la yidhaahdo Lubnaan uga keenaan oo ay badda u soo marsiiyaan ilaa Yaafaa, sidii uu Kuuros oo ahaa boqorkii Faaris ugu oggolaaday.
So they gave silver to the stoneworkers and craftsmen, and they gave food, drink, and oil to the people of Sidon and Tyre, so they would bring cedar trees by sea from Lebanon to Joppa, as authorized for them by Cyrus, king of Persia.
8 Haddaba markay yimaadeen guriga Ilaah oo Yeruusaalem ku yaal sannaddii labaad bisheedii labaad ayay Serubaabel oo ahaa ina Salaatii'eel, iyo Yeeshuuca oo ahaa ina Yoosaadaaq, shuqulkii bilaabeen, iyaga iyo intii kale oo ahayd wadaaddadii walaalahood ahaa, iyo kuwii reer Laawi, iyo kulli intii maxaabiista ka soo baxday oo Yeruusaalem timid, oo kuwii reer Laawi intii labaatan sannadood jirtay ama ka sii weyn ayay u doorteen inay shuqulkii guriga Rabbiga u sarreeyaan.
Then in the second month of the second year after they came to the house of God in Jerusalem, Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel, Jeshua son of Jozadak, the rest of the priests, the Levites, and those who came from captivity back to Jerusalem began the work. They assigned the Levites twenty years old and older to oversee the work of Yahweh's house.
9 Markaasaa waxaa dhammaan istaagay Yeeshuuca, iyo wiilashiisii iyo walaalihiis, iyo Qadmii'eel iyo wiilashiisii oo ahaa reer Yahuudah, inay u sarreeyaan shaqaalaha ku jira guriga Rabbiga, iyo weliba wiilashii Xeenaadaad iyo wiilashoodii iyo walaalahood oo ahaa reer Laawi.
Jeshua and his sons and brothers, and Kadmiel and his sons, who were descendants of Hodaviah), and the sons of Henadad and their sons and brothers-all of them were Levites-joined together in supervising those working on the house of God.
10 Oo kuwii gurigii dhisayay markay aasaaskii macbudka Rabbiga dhigeen waxaa istaagay wadaaddadii iyagoo dharkoodii xidhan oo turumbooyin wata, iyo kuwii reer Laawi oo ahaa ilma Aasaaf oo haysta suxuun laysku garaaco, inay Rabbiga ammaanaan sidii uu ahaa amarkii Daa'uud oo ahaa boqorkii reer binu Israa'iil.
The builders laid a foundation for Yahweh's temple. This enabled the priests to stand in their garments with trumpets, and the Levites, sons of Asaph, to praise Yahweh with cymbals, just as the hand of David, king of Israel had commanded.
11 Oo markaasay darandoorri u gabyeen iyagoo Rabbiga ammaanaya oo u mahadnaqaya, oo leh, Isagu wuu wanaagsan yahay, reer binu Israa'iilna weligiisba wuu u naxariistaa. Oo markay Rabbiga ammaaneen ayaa dadkii oo dhammu dhawaaq weyn ku dhawaaqay, maxaa yeelay, waxaa la dhigay aasaaskii gurigii Rabbiga.
They sang with praise and thankfulness to Yahweh, “He is good! His covenant faithfulness to Israel endures forever.” All the people cried out with a great shout of joy in praise of Yahweh because the temple's foundations had been laid.
12 Oo wadaaddadii badidood, iyo kuwii reer Laawi, iyo madaxdii qabiilooyinka oo ahaa odayaashii arkay gurigii hore ayaa aad u ooyay markay arkeen gurigan aasaaskiisii oo hortooda lagu dhigay, oo kuwo badanuna farxad bay la qayliyeen,
But many of the priests, Levites, and chief patriarchs, those who were old and had seen the first house, when this house's foundations were laid before their eyes, wept loudly. But many people had shouts of joy with gladness and an excited sound.
13 oo sidaas daraaddeed dadkii wuu kala sooci kari waayay dhawaaqii farxadda iyo qayladii oohinta, oo buuqiina waxaa laga maqlay meel fog.
As a result, people were not able to distinguish the joyful and glad sounds from the sound of people weeping, for the people were crying out with great joy, and the sound was heard from far away.
