ʻEsela 1
1 Pea ko eni, ʻi he ʻuluaki taʻu ʻo Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, pea koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ʻi he ngutu ʻo Selemaia, naʻe ueʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae laumālie ʻo Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, pea naʻe fanongonongo ʻe ia ʻae fono ʻi hono puleʻanga kotoa pē, pea naʻe tohi ia foki, ʻo pehē,
I KA makahiki akahi o Kuro ke alii o Peresia, i hookoia'i ka olelo a Iehova ma ka waha o Ieremia, hoala mai o Iehova i ka naau o Kuro ke alii o Peresia, a kukala aku ia ma kona aupuni a pau, a ma ka palapala hoi, i ka i ana'e,
2 ʻOku pehē ʻe Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, “Kuo tuku kiate au ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe langi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani: pea kuo fekau ʻe ia kiate au ke u langa ʻae fale moʻona ʻi Selūsalema, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Siuta.
Peneia ka olelo a Kuro ke alii o Peresia, O Iehova ke Akua o ka lani, ua haawi mai ia no'u i na aupuni a pau o ka honua; a ua kauoha mai oia ia'u e hana i hale nona ma Ierusalema i Iuda.
3 Ko hai ia ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi hono kakai kotoa pē? Ke ʻiate ia ʻa hono ʻOtua, pea ke ʻalu hake ia ki Selūsalema, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Siuta, pea ke langa ʻae fale kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, (ko ia ia ko e ʻOtua, ) ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Selūsalema.
Owai la ka mea iwaena o oukou no kona poe kanaka a pau? o kona Akua kekahi me ia, a e pii aku ia ma Ierusalema i Iuda, a e hana i ka hale ma Ierusalema no Iehova ke Akua o ka laeraela, oia ke Akua.
4 Pea mo ia fulipē ʻoku toe ʻi ha potu ʻaia ʻoku ʻāunofo ia ki ai, tuku ke tokoni ia ʻe he kau tangata ʻo hono potu ʻaki ʻae siliva, pea mo e koula, pea mo e ngaahi koloa pea mo e fanga manu, ko hono fakalahi ia ʻoe ngaahi meʻa ʻoku foaki loto lelei ki he fale ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoku ʻi Selūsalema.”
A o kela mea keia mea e noho ana ma na wahi a pau ana e noho la, e kokua mai na kanaka o kona wahi ia ia me ke kala, a me ke gula, a me ka waiwai, a me na holoholona, me ka makana no hoi no ka hale o ke Akua ma Ierusalema.
5 Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ai ʻae kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he mātuʻa ʻo Siuta mo Penisimani, mo e kau taulaʻeiki, pea mo e kau Livai, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe fakaakeake honau laumālie ʻe he ʻOtua, ke ʻalu hake ke langa ʻae fale ʻo Sihova ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Selūsalema.
Alaila ku ae la ka poe koikoi o na makua no ka Iuda, a me ka Beniamina, a me na kahuna, a me na Levi, o na mea a pau a ke Akua i hoala mai ai i ko lakou mau naau e pii ae e hana i ka hale no Iehova ma Ierusalema.
6 Pea naʻe fakamālohi honau nima ʻekinautolu kotoa pē naʻe nonofo fakataha mo kinautolu, ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ipu siliva, mo e koula, mo e ngaahi koloa, mo e fanga manu, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa maʻongoʻonga, ka ʻoku lau kehe ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē naʻe ʻatu loto ʻofa pe.
A kokua mai no ko lakou poe hoalauna a pau ia lakou me na kiaha kala, a me ke gula, me ka waiwai, a me na holoholona, a me na mea maikai, a he okoa hoi na mea a pau i haawi lokomaikai ia mai.
7 Pea naʻe fetuku mai foki ʻe Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻae ngaahi ipu ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, ʻaia naʻe fetuku ʻe Nepukanesa mei Selūsalema, pea naʻa ne tuku ia ʻi he fale ʻo hono ngaahi ʻotua;
A lawe mai la o Kuro, ke alii, i na kiaha o ka hale o Iehova, na mea a Nebukaneza i lawe ae mai Ierusalema mai, a waiho ia lakou iloko o ka hale o kona mau akua;
8 ʻIo, naʻe ʻomi ia [kotoa pē ]ʻe Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia ʻi he nima ʻo Mitilitati ko e tauhi koloa, pea lau ia kia Sesipasa, ko e ʻeiki ʻo Siuta.
Oia mau mea ka Kuro ke alii o Peresia i lawe mai ai iwaho, ma ka lima o Miteredate, ka puukukala, a helu aku la ia mau mea no Sesehazara, ka luna no ka Iuda.
9 Pea ko hono lau eni: ko e ipu lafalafa koula ʻe tolungofulu, mo e ipu lafalafa siliva ʻe taha afe, mo e hele ʻe uofulu ma hiva,
A eia ka huina o ia mau mea; he kanakolu ipu gula, a hookahi tausani ipu kala, he iwakaluakumamaiwa pahi,
10 Ko e ipu luoluo koula ʻe tolungofulu, mo e ipu luoluo siliva ʻoe anga ʻe taha ko e fāngeau mo e hongofulu, pea ko e ngaahi ipu kehe ʻe taha afe.
He kanakolu bola gula, eha haneri a me ka umi keu na bola kala maikai iki iho, a o na kiaha e ae hookahi tausani.
11 Ko e ngaahi ipu koula mo e siliva kotoa pē ko e nima afe mo e nimangeau. Naʻe fetuku eni kotoa pē ʻe Sesipasa fakataha mo kinautolu ʻoe kau pōpula ʻaia naʻe ʻohake mei Papilone ki Selūsalema.
O na mea gula a pau, a me ke kala, elima tausani a me na haneri eha. O keia mau mea a pau ka Sesehazara i lawe aku ai i ka pii ana o ka poe pio mai Babulona aku a Ierusalema.
