Cesraa 5

1 Haddaba nebiyadii ahaa Nebi Xaggay, iyo Sekaryaah ina Iddo ayaa wax u sii sheegay Yuhuuddii degganayd Yahuudah iyo Yeruusaalem, oo magaca Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil ayay wax ugu sii sheegeen.

Then prophesied Haggai the prophet, and Zechariah the son of 'Iddo, the prophets, unto the Jews that were in Judah and Jerusalem, in the name of the God of Israel, concerning them.

2 Markaasaa waxaa kacay Serubaabel oo ahaa ina Salaatii'eel, iyo Yeeshuuca oo ahaa ina Yoosaadaaq, oo waxay bilaabeen inay dhisaan gurigii Ilaah oo ku yaal Yeruusaalem; oo waxaa iyaga la jiray oo caawinayay nebiyadii Ilaah.

Then rose up Zerubbabel the son of Shealthiel, and Jeshua' the son of Jozadak, and began to build the house of God which is in Jerusalem; and with them were the prophets of God helping them.

3 Oo isla markaasba waxaa u yimid Tatenay oo ahaa taliyihii dalka webiga ka shisheeya, iyo Shetar Boosnay iyo saaxiibbadood, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War yaa amar idin siiyey inaad gurigan dhistaan, iyo inaad derbigan dhammaysaan?

At this same time came to them Thathnai, the governor on this side of the river, and Shethar-bozenai, and their companions, and thus they said unto them, “Who hath given you an order to build this house, and to complete these walls?”

4 Markaasaannu sidan kula hadalnay, oo ku nidhi, Nimanka dhismahan dhisaya magacyadooda maxaa la yidhaahdaa?

Then said we unto them after this manner, what are the names of the men that erect this building.

5 Laakiinse duqowdii Yuhuudda waxaa isha ku hayay Ilaahooda, oo iyana shuqulkii ma ay joojin ilaa xaalku soo gaadho Daariyus, oo warqad jawaab ah ee taas ku saabsan loo soo celiyo.

But the eye of their God was upon the elders of the Jews, so that they did not stop them, till the matter came to Darius; and they then returned an answer by letter concerning this.

6 Tanu waa naqilkii warqaddii Tatenay oo ahaa taliyihii dalka webiga ka shisheeya, iyo Shetar Boosnay, iyo saaxiibbadiis oo ahaa reer Afarsekaayee oo webiga shishadiisa joogay ay u soo direen boqorkii Daariyus.

A copy of the letter which Thathnai, the governor on this side of the river, and Shethar-bozenai, and his companions, the Apharsachites, who were on this side of the river, sent unto king Darius.

7 Warqad bay u direen, oo waxaa ku qornaa wax sidan ah: Boqor Daariyusow, nabadi korkaaga ha ahaato.

They sent a report unto him, and thus was it written therein: Unto king Darius be all peace.

8 Boqorow, bal ogow inaannu tagnay gobolka Yahuudah, oo soo aragnay gurigii Ilaaha weyn, oo dhagaxyo waaweyn lagu dhisay, oo derbiyadiisana alwaax la dhex geliyey, oo shuqulkaasuna dadaal buu ku socdaa oo gacmahooduu ku liibaanaa.

Be it known unto the king, that we went into the province of Judah, to the house of the great God, which they are building with heavy stones, and timber is laid in the walls, and this work is urged with speed, and it prospereth in their hands.

9 Oo waxaannu duqowdaas weyddiinnay oo ku nidhi, Yaa idin siiyey amar aad gurigan ku dhistaan, oo aad derbigan ku dhammaysaan?

Then asked we these elders, and after this manner said we unto them, Who hath given you the order to build this house, and to complete these walls?

10 Oo haddana waxaannu kaloo weyddiinnay magacyadoodii, si aan kuu ogeysiinno, iyo si aan kuugu soo qorno nimanka madaxdooda ah magacyadooda.

Also their names did we ask of them, to let thee know them, that we might write down the names of the men that are at their head.

11 Oo iyana sidanay jawaab noogu soo celiyeen oo yidhaahdeen, Waxaannu nahay addoommadii Ilaaha samada iyo dhulka, oo waxaannu dhisaynaa gurigan oo sannado badan oo hore la dhisay, oo boqor weyn oo reer binu Israa'iil ahu uu dhisay oo dhammeeyey.

And in this manner did they return us answer, saying, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth, and we build the house that was built before this many years, and a great king of Israel built and completed it.

12 Laakiinse awowayaashayadii waxay ka xanaajiyeen Ilaaha samada, oo taas daraaddeed ayuu ugu riday gacantii Nebukadnesar oo ahaa boqorkii Baabuloon, kii reer Kaldayiin oo gurigan dumiyey oo dadkiina Baabuloon u kaxaystay.

But since our fathers had provoked the God of heaven unto wrath, he gave them up into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, the Chaldean, and he destroyed this house, and carried the people as exiles into Babylon.

13 Laakiinse Kuuros oo ahaa boqorkii Baabuloon sannaddiisii kowaad ayaa Boqor Kuuros bixiyey amar lagu dhiso gurigan Ilaah.

However, in the first year of Cyrus the king of Babylon, king Cyrus gave an order to build this house of God.

14 Oo weliba weelashii dahabka iyo lacagta ahaa ee gurigii Ilaah oo uu Nebukadnesar ka qaaday macbudkii Yeruusaalem ku yiil oo uu geeyey macbudkii Baabuloon, kuwaas boqor Kuuros wuu ka soo bixiyey macbudkii Baabuloon, oo waxaa loo soo dhiibay mid magiciisa la odhan jiray Sheeshbasar, oo uu isagu taliye ka dhigay;

And also the vessels of gold and silver of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple that was in Jerusalem, and brought into the temple of Babylon, these did king Cyrus take out of the temple of Babylon, and gave them unto one, Sheshbazzar by name, whom he had appointed as governor;

15 oo wuxuu isagii ku yidhi, Tag oo weelashan qaad, oo waxaad gelisaa macbudka Yeruusaalem ku yaal, oo gurigii Ilaahna ha laga dhiso meeshiisii.

And he said unto him, Take these vessels, go, carry them into the temple which is in Jerusalem, and let the house of God be built on its site.

16 Markaasaa Sheeshbasarkii yimid, oo wuxuu dhigay aasaaskii guriga Ilaah oo Yeruusaalem ku yaal, oo tan iyo waagaas waa la dhisayay, laakiinse weli lama dhammaystirin.

Then came this same Sheshbazzar, [and] laid the foundation of the house of God which is in Jerusalem; and from that time even until now they have been building it, but it is not yet finished.

17 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed, haddii ay kula wanaagsan tahay, boqorow, bal ha la baadho gurigaaga khasnadda ah oo Baabuloon ku yaal, bal inay saas tahay in Boqor Kuuros amar ku bixiyey in la dhiso gurigan Ilaah oo Yeruusaalem ku yaal, oo noo soo dir wixii aad xaalkan ka damacsan tahay.

And now, if it seem good to the king, let search be made in the king's treasure-house, which is there at Babylon, whether it be so, that an order was given by king Cyrus to build this house of God at Jerusalem, and let the king send to us his pleasure concerning this matter.
