Cesraa 7
1 Haddaba waxyaalahaas dabadeed intii Artaxshasta oo boqorkii Faaris ahaa dowladnimada haystay ayaa Baabuloon waxaa ka soo kacay Cesraa ina Seraayaah, oo ahaa ina Casaryaah, ina Xilqiyaah,
And after these things, in the reign of Artaxerxes the king of Persia, Ezra the son of Serayah, the son of 'Azaryah, the son of Chilkiyah,
2 ina Shalluum, ina Saadooq, ina Axiituub,
The son of Shallum, the son of Zadok, the son of Achitub,
3 ina Amaryaah, ina Casaryaah, ina Meraayood,
The son of Amaryah, the son of 'Azaryah, the son of Merayoth,
4 ina Seraxyaah, ina Cusii, ina Buqii,
The son of Zerachyah, the son of 'Uzzi, the son of Bukki,
5 ina Abiishuuca, ina Fiinexaas, ina Elecaasaar, ina Haaruun kii ahaa wadaadka sare;
The son of Abishua', the son of Phinehas, the son of Elazar, the son of Aaron the chief priest:
6 oo Cesraahan ayaa ka tegey Baabuloon, oo wuxuu ahaa karraani aad u yaqaan sharcigii Muuse uu Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil siiyey; oo boqorkuna wuxuu siiyey wixii uu weyddiistay oo dhan sidii ay gacantii Rabbiga Ilaahiis ahu u saarnayd.
This 'Ezra went up from Babylon; and he was a practised expounder in the law of Moses, which the Lord the God of Israel hath given; and the king gave him, according to the hand of the Lord his God upon him, all his request.
7 Oo sannaddii toddobaad oo dowladnimadii Boqor Artaxshasta waxaa Yeruusaalem tegey qaar ah reer binu Israa'iil, iyo wadaaddada, iyo reer Laawi, iyo nimankii gabayaaga ahaa, iyo irid-dhawryadii, iyo reer Netiiniim.
And there went up some of the children of Israel, and of the priests, and the Levites, and the singers, and the gate-keepers, and the temple-servants, unto Jerusalem, in the seventh year of king Artaxerxes.
8 Oo wuxuu Yeruusaalem yimid boqorka sannaddiisii toddobaad, bisheedii shanaad.
And he came to Jerusalem in the fifth month, which was in the seventh year of the king.
9 Baabuloon ayuu ka soo baxay bishii kowaad maalinteedii kowaad, oo wuxuu Yeruusaalem yimid bishii shanaad maalinteedii kowaad, sidii ay gacantii Ilaahiisa oo wanaagsanayd u saarnayd.
For on the first day of the first month was the commencement of the expedition from Babylon, and on the first day of the fifth month came he to Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God upon him.
10 Waayo, Cesraa wuxuu qalbigiisa u diyaariyey inuu doondoono oo sameeyo Rabbiga sharcigiisa iyo inuu reer binu Israa'iil baro qaynuunno iyo xukummo.
For 'Ezra had directed his heart to inquire in the law of the Lord, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and ordinances.
11 Haddaba kanu waa naqilkii warqaddii uu Boqor Artaxshasta siiyey Cesraa oo ahaa wadaadkii iyo karraanigii kaasoo ahaa karraanigii erayadii amarrada Rabbiga iyo qaynuunnadiisii uu reer binu Israa'iil siiyey.
Now this is the copy of the letter which king Artaxerxes gave unto 'Ezra the priest, the expounder of the law, the expounder of the words of the commandments of the Lord, and of his statutes for Israel.
12 Anigoo ah Artaxshasta boqorkii boqorrada, waxaan u qorayaa wadaadkii Cesraa oo ah karraanigii sharciga Ilaaha samada ee kaamil ah, iyo wax la mid ah. Salaan
Artaxerxes, the king of kings, unto 'Ezra the priest, the expounder of the law of the God of heaven, the perfect, and so forth.
13 Waxaan amar ku bixinayaa in dadka reer binu Israa'iil, iyo wadaaddadooda, iyo reer Laawi, inta boqortooyadayda ku jirta, ee ikhtiyaarkooda u doonaya inay Yeruusaalem tagaan, ay dhammaan ku raacaan.
By me is the order given, that every one who is freely willing in my kingdom out of the people of Israel, and their priests and Levites, to go up to Jerusalem, may go up with thee:
14 Waxaa ku soo diray boqorkii iyo toddobadiisii lataliye inaad soo warsatid Yahuudah iyo Yeruusaalem, sida waafaqsan sharciga Ilaahaaga oo gacantaada ku jira,
Forasmuch as thou art sent on the part of the king, and of his seven counsellors, to make inquiry concerning Judah and Jerusalem, according to the law of thy God which is in thy hand;
15 iyo inaad qaaddid lacagta iyo dahabka ay boqorka iyo lataliyayaashiisu ikhtiyaarkooda ugu bixiyeen Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil oo rugtiisu tahay Yeruusaalem,
And to carry the silver and gold, which the king and his counsellors have freely offered unto the God of Israel, whose habitation is in Jerusalem.
16 iyo kulli lacagta iyo dahabka aad ka heli doonto gobolka Baabuloon oo dhan, iyo qurbaanka dadku ikhtiyaarka u bixiyo, iyo kan wadaaddadu ay ikhtiyaarkooda ugu bixiyaan guriga Ilaahooda oo Yeruusaalem ku yaal aawadiis,
And all [freewill offerings of] silver and gold that thou canst find in all the province of Babylon, with the freewill offerings which the people and the priests offer willingly for the house of their God which is in Jerusalem.
17 haddaba sidaas daraaddeed waa inaad aad ugu dadaashaa inaad lacagtan ku iibiso dibi, iyo wanan, iyo baraar, iyo qurbaannadooda hadhuudhka ah, iyo qurbaannadooda cabniinka ah, oo aad ku dul bixisaa meesha allabariga ee guriga Ilaahaaga oo Yeruusaalem ku yaal.
Therefore mayest thou buy speedily with this money bullocks, rams, lambs, with their meat-offerings and their drink-offerings, and offer them upon the altar of the house of your God which is in Jerusalem.
18 Oo lacagta iyo dahabka intooda kale ku sameeya wax alla wixii adiga iyo walaalahaa idinla wanaagsan oo sida Ilaahiin doonayo ah.
And whatsoever shall seem good to thee, and to thy brethren, to do with the rest of the silver and the gold, that do according to the will of your God.
19 Oo weelasha laguugu dhiibay in lagu qabto adeegidda guriga Ilaahaaga waxaad hor geeysaa Ilaaha Yeruusaalem.
And the vessels which have been given unto thee for the service of the house of thy God, deliver thou before the God of Jerusalem.
20 Oo wax alla wixii kaloo loogu baahan yahay guriga Ilaahaaga aawadiis, ee kugu habboon inaad bixiso, ka bixi boqorka gurigiisa khasnadda ah.
And the remainder that will yet be needful for the house of thy God, which thou shalt have occasion to procure, procure out of the King's treasure-house.
21 Oo weliba anigoo ah Boqor Artaxshasta waxaan amar ku siinayaa khasnajiyada webiga shishadiisa jooga oo dhan, in dadaal lagu sameeyo wax alla wixii uu idin weyddiisto wadaadka Cesraa oo ah karraaniga sharciga Ilaaha samada,
And by me, me King Artaxerxes, is the order given unto all the treasurers who are beyond the river, that whatsoever 'Ezra the priest, the expounder of the law of the God of heaven, may demand of you, shall be done speedily.
22 intii ku siman boqol talanti oo lacag ah, iyo boqol kor oo sarreen ah, iyo boqol bad oo khamri ah, iyo boqol bad oo saliid ah, iyo cusbo aan la xisaabin intay tahay.
Up to one hundred talents of silver, and up to one hundred cors of wheat, and up to one hundred baths of wine, and up to one hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing it.
23 Haddaba wax alla wixii Ilaaha samadu uu amro saas dadaal ha loogu sameeyo guriga Ilaaha samada aawadiis, waayo, bal maxay cadho ugu dhacaysaa boqortooyada boqorka iyo wiilashiisa?
Whatsoever is ordered by the God of heaven shall be carefully done for the house of the God of heaven; for why should there be wrath against the kingdom of the king and his sons?
24 Oo weliba waxaannu ku ogeysiinaynaa inaanay xalaal ahaan doonin in gabbaro, canshuur, amase baad toona la saaro wadaaddada, iyo kuwa reer Laawi, iyo nimanka gabayaaga ah, iyo irid-dhawryada, iyo reer Netiiniim, iyo addoommada gurigan Ilaah midkoodna.
And to you make we it known, that on any of the priests and Levites, singers, gate-keepers, and temple-servants, or ministers of this house of God, no one shall be empowered to impose any tax, tribute, or toll.
25 Oo adigoo Cesraa ahu xigmadda Ilaahaagu ku siiyey ku dooro xaakinno iyo qaadiyo u garsoora dadka webiga ka shisheeya oo dhan, in alla inta taqaan sharciyada Ilaahaaga, oo kii aan aqoonna bara.
And thou, 'Ezra, according to the wisdom of thy God which is in thy hand, appoint judges and magistrates, who are to judge all the people that are beyond the river, all such as know the laws of thy God; and make ye them known to those that know them not.
26 Oo ku alla kii aan addeecin sharciga Ilaahaaga iyo sharciga boqorka, xukun ha lagu soo dejiyo, iyadoo aad loogu dadaalayo, hadday tahay in la dilo, ama in la masaafuriyo, ama in xoolihiisa lagala wareego, amase in la xidho.
And if there be any one who will not execute the law of thy God, and the law of the king, let justice be speedily executed upon him, whether it be unto death or to banishment, or to a fine on goods, or to imprisonment.
27 Waxaa ammaan leh Rabbiga ah Ilaaha awowayaashayo, oo boqorka qalbigiisa geliyey wax sidanoo kale ah, inuu ku qurxiyo guriga Rabbiga oo Yeruusaalem ku yaal,
Blessed be the Lord the God of our fathers, who hath put the like of this in the heart of the king, to glorify the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem;
28 oo naxariis iga siiyey boqorkii, iyo lataliyayaashiisa, iyo amiirradiisa xoogga badan hortooda oo dhan. Oo waxaan u xoogaystay sidii gacanta Rabbiga Ilaahayga ahu ii saarnayd, markaasaan reer binu Israa'iil ka dhex urursaday rag madax ah inay i raacaan.
And who hath extended kindness unto me before the king and his counsellors, and before all the mighty princes of the king: and I strengthened myself according to the hand of the Lord my God upon me, and I gathered together out of Israel principal men to go up with me.
