< Cesraa 4 >
1 Haddaba cadaawayaashii reer Yahuudah iyo reer Benyaamiin markay maqleen inay kuwii maxaabiistii ahaan jiray macbud u dhisayeen Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil,
Bvt the aduersaries of Iudah and Beniamin heard, that the children of the captiuitie builded the Temple vnto the Lord God of Israel.
2 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.
And they came to Zerubbabel, and to the chiefe fathers, and sayd vnto them, We wil builde with you: for we seeke the Lord your God as ye do, and we haue sacrificed vnto him since the time of Esar Haddon king of Asshur, which brought vs vp hither.
3 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.
Then Zerubbabel, and Ieshua, and the rest of the chiefe fathers of Israel, sayde vnto them, It is not for you, but for vs to buyld the house vnto our God: for we our selues together wil buylde it vnto the Lord God of Israel, as king Cyrus the king of Persia hath commanded vs.
4 Markaasaa dadkii dalka degganaa waxay daaliyeen gacmihii dadkii reer Yahuudah, oo waxdhisiddiina way ka cabsiiyeen,
Wherefore the people of the land discouraged the people of Iudah, and troubled them in buylding,
5 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.
And they hired counsellers against them, to hinder their deuise, all the dayes of Cyrus King of Persia, euen vntill the reigne of Darius King of Persia.
6 Oo waagii Ahashwerus boqortooyada qabsaday markii dowladnimadiisu bilaabatay ayay ashtako ka soo qoreen dadkii degganaa Yahuudah iyo Yeruusaalem.
And in the reigne of Ahashuerosh (in the beginning of his reigne) wrote they an accusation against the inhabitants of Iudah and Ierusalem.
7 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.
And in the daies of Artahshashte, Mithredath, Tabeel, and the rest of their companions wrote when it was peace, vnto Artahshashte king of Persia, and the writing of the letter was the Aramites writing, and the thing declared was in the language of the Aramites.
8 Taliyihii Rexuum ahaa iyo karraanigii Shimshay ahaa ayaa sidan warqad Yeruusaalem ka gees ah ugu soo qoray Boqor Artaxshasta.
Rehum the chancelour, and Shimshai the scribe wrote a letter against Ierusalem to Artahshashte the King, in this sort.
9 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,
Then wrote Rehum the chauncelour, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions Dinaie, and Apharsathcaie, Tarpelaie, Apharsaie, Archeuaie, Bablaie, Shushanchaie, Dehaue, Elmaie,
10 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.
And the rest of the people whom the great and noble Asnappar brought ouer, and set in the cities of Samaria, and other that are beyonde the Riuer and Cheeneth.
11 Kanu waa naqilkii warqaddii ay Boqor Artaxshasta u direen: Dadka webiga ka shisheeya, oo addoommadaada ahu waxay leeyihiin,
This is the copie of the letter that they sent vnto King Artahshashte, THY SERVANTS the men beyond the Riuer and Cheeneth, salute thee.
12 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.
Be it knowen vnto the King that ye Iewes, which came vp from thee to vs, are come vnto Ierusalem (a citie rebellious and wicked) and buylde, and lay the foundations of the walles, and haue ioyned the foundations.
13 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.
Be it knowen nowe vnto the King, that if this citie be built, and the foundations of the walles layed, they will not giue tolle, tribute, nor custome: so shalt thou hinder the Kings tribute.
14 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,
Nowe therefore because wee haue bene brought vp in the Kings palace, it was not meete for vs to see the Kings dishonour: for this cause haue we sent and certified the King,
15 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.
That one may searche in the booke of the Chronicles of thy fathers, and thou shalt finde in the booke of the Chronicles, and perceiue that this citie is rebellious and noysome vnto Kings and prouinces, and that they haue moued sedition of olde time, for the which cause this citie was destroyed.
16 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.
Wee certifie the King therefore, that if this citie be buylded, and the foundation of the walles layd, by this meanes the portion beyonde the Riuer shall not be thine.
17 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.
The King sent an answere vnto Rehum the Chauncelour, and Shimshai the Scribe, and so the rest of their companions that dwelt in Samaria, and vnto the other beyond the Riuer, Shelam and Cheeth.
18 Warqaddii aad noo soo dirteen bayaan ayaa hortayda loogu akhriyey.
The letter which yee sent vnto vs, hath bene openly read before me,
19 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.
And I haue commanded and they haue searched, and founde, that this citie of olde time hath made insurrection against kings, and hath rebelled, and rebellion hath bene committed therein.
20 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.
There haue bene mightie kings also ouer Ierusalem, which haue ruled ouer all beyonde the Riuer, and tolle, tribute, and custome was giuen vnto them.
21 Haddaba idinku waxaad amar ku bixisaan in nimankaasu shuqulka joojiyaan iyo inaan magaaladaas la dhisin ilaa aan amar bixiyo.
Make ye now a decree, that those men may cease, and that the citie be not buylt, till I haue giuen another commandement.
22 Oo idinku iska jira inaydnaan xaalkaas daynin, waayo, bal maxaa khasaare ugu sii kordhaya in waxyeello boqorrada gaadho?
Take heede nowe that ye fayle not to doe this: why should domage grow to hurt the King?
23 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.
When the copie of king Artahshashtes letter was read before Rehum and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went vp in all the haste to Ierusalem vnto the Iewes, and caused them to cease by force and power.
24 Oo markaasuu joogsaday shuqulkii guriga Ilaah Yeruusaalem ku yaal; oo wuxuu joogsaday ilaa sannaddii labaad oo dowladnimadii Daariyus oo boqorkii Faaris ahaa.
Then ceased the worke of the house of God, which was in Ierusalem, and did stay vnto the second yeere of Darius King of Persia.
