And Uthai and Zaccur and 70 other men from the clan descended from Bigvai.

15 — Mǝn ularni Ahawaƣa aⱪidiƣan Dǝryaning boyiƣa yiƣdim; biz u yǝrdǝ qedir tikip üq kün turduⱪ. Hǝlⱪni wǝ kaⱨinlarni arilap ⱪarisam u yǝrdǝ Lawiylar yoⱪ ikǝn.

I gathered all of them together at the canal that goes [from Babylon] to Ahava [town]. We set up our tents there and stayed there for three days. [During that time] I checked the lists of names and found out that there were priests [going with us], but no [other] descendants of Levi [who could help them in the temple].

16 Xunga mǝn baxliⱪlardin Əliezǝr, Ariyǝl, Xemaya, Əlnatan, Yarib, Əlnatan, Natan, Zǝkǝriya bilǝn Mǝxullamlarni wǝ ularƣa ⱪoxup oⱪumuxluⱪ alimlardin Yoarib bilǝn Əlnatanni qaⱪirtip kelip,

So I summoned Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, two men whose names were Elnathan, and Jarib, Nathan, Zechariah, and Meshullam, who were all leaders [of the people]. I also summoned Joiarib and another Elnathan, who were wise.

17 ularƣa ⱨawalǝ ⱪilip Kasifiya degǝn yǝrgǝ, Iddo degǝn Ataman bilǝn kɵrüxüxkǝ ǝwǝttim. Mǝn Kasifiya degǝn yǝrdǝ Iddoƣa wǝ uning ibadǝthana hizmǝtkarliri bolƣan ⱪerindaxliriƣa dǝydiƣan gǝplǝrni aƣziƣa selip, ularning bu yǝrgǝ Hudayimizning ɵyi üqün hizmǝt ⱪilidiƣan hizmǝtqilǝrni bizgǝ ǝkelixni ɵtündum.

I sent them all to Iddo, the leader of the descendants of Levi, who was living in Casiphia [town], to request that he and his relatives and other men who had worked in the temple send to us some men who would [go/come with us to] work in God’s new temple [in Jerusalem].

18 Hudayimizning xapaǝtlik ⱪoli bizdǝ bolƣaqⱪa, ular bizgǝ Israilning ǝwrisi, Lawiyning nǝwrisi Maⱨlining ǝwladliri iqidin oⱪumuxluⱪ bir adǝmni, yǝni Xǝrǝbiyani wǝ uning oƣulliri ⱨǝm ⱪerindaxliri bolup jǝmiy on sǝkkiz kixini baxlap kǝldi.

Because God was kind to us, they brought to us a man named Sherebiah and 18 of his sons and other relatives. Sherebiah was a very wise man, a descendant of Mahli, [who was a grandson] of Levi.

19 Ular yǝnǝ Ⱨaxabiya wǝ uning bilǝn billǝ Mǝrarining ǝwladliridin Yǝxaya ⱨǝm uning ⱪerindaxliri ⱨǝm ularning oƣulliri bolup, jǝmiy yigirmǝ kixini,

They also sent to us Hashabiah, along with Jeshaiah, descendants of [Levi’s son] Merari, and 20 of their relatives.

20 Yǝnǝ ilgiri Dawut wǝ uning ǝmirliri Lawiylarning hizmitidǝ boluxⱪa tǝyinligǝn «Nǝtiniylar»din ikki yüz yigirmǝ kixini baxlap kǝldi, bularning ⱨǝmmisi isimliri bilǝn tizimlandi.

They also sent 220 other men to work in the temple. Those men’s ancestors had been appointed by King David to assist the descendants of Levi [who helped the priests in the temple]. I listed/wrote the names of all those men.

21 Xu qaƣda Ahawa dǝryasi boyida mǝn Hudayimizning aldida ɵzümizni tɵwǝn ⱪilip, ɵzimiz wǝ kiqik balilirimiz ⱨǝm barliⱪ mal-mülkimiz üqün Hudayimizdin aⱪ yol tilǝxkǝ roza tutayli, dǝp jakarlidim.

There alongside the Ahava Canal, I told them that we all would (fast/abstain from eating food) and pray. I also told them that we should humble ourselves in the presence of our God. We prayed that God would protect us while we traveled, and also protect our children and our possessions/belongings.

22 Qünki biz ǝslidǝ padixaⱨⱪa: «Hudayimizning ⱪoli Uni barliⱪ izdigǝnlǝrning üstigǝ iltipat kɵrsitixkǝ ⱪoyulidu; lekin Uning ⱪudriti bilǝn ƣǝzipi Ɵzini taxliƣanlarƣa zǝrbǝ berixkǝ tǝyyardur» degǝniduⱪ, ǝmdi yǝnǝ uningdin yoldiki düxmǝnlǝrgǝ taⱪabil turuxⱪa piyadǝ wǝ atliⱪ lǝxkǝrlǝr tǝyinlǝp berixni tǝlǝp ⱪilƣanliⱪimdin hijil bolup ⱪaldim.

Previously we had told the king that our God takes care of all those who truly trust in him, but that he becomes very angry with those who refuse to obey him. So I would have been ashamed if I had asked the king to send soldiers and men riding on horses to protect us from our enemies while we were traveling along the road.

23 Xuning bilǝn biz roza tutup Hudayimizdin xu ix toƣruluⱪ ɵtünduⱪ, u duayimizni ijabǝt ⱪildi.

So we (fasted/abstained from eating food) and requested God to protect us, and he (answered our prayers/did what we requested.)

24 Mǝn kaⱨin baxliri iqidin on ikki adǝmni wǝ Xǝrǝbiya, Ⱨaxabiya wǝ ular bilǝn billǝ bolƣan aka-ukiliridin on adǝmni tallap,

I chose twelve of the leaders of the priests, Sherebiah and Hashabiah and ten of their relatives.

25 ularƣa altun, kümüx wǝ ⱪaqa-ⱪuqilarni, yǝni padixaⱨ, uning mǝsliⱨǝtqiliri, ǝmirliri wǝ xuningdǝk xu yǝrdǝ turuwatⱪan barliⱪ Israillar «kɵydürmǝ ⱨǝdiyǝ» süpitidǝ Hudayimizning ɵyigǝ ⱨǝdiyǝ ⱪilƣan sowƣatlarni tapxurdum.

I appointed them to supervise carrying to Jerusalem the gifts of silver and gold and the other valuable items that the king and his advisors and other officials, and the Israeli people [who were living in Babylonia], had contributed for the temple of our God.

26 Mǝn kümüxtin altǝ yüz ǝllik talant, yüz talant eƣirliⱪtiki kümüx ⱪaqa-ⱪuqa, yüz talant altunni ularning ⱪoliƣa ɵlqǝp tapxurdum.

As I gave these various items to those priests, I weighed each of the items. This was the total: 25 tons of silver, 100 items made from silver that altogether weighed 7,500 pounds, (7,500 pounds/3,400 kg.) of gold,

27 Ularƣa tapxurƣanlirimdin yǝnǝ altun das yigirmǝ bolup, ⱪimmiti ming darik, süpǝtlik wǝ walildap parⱪiraydiƣan mis qong das ikki bolup, altundǝk ⱪimmǝtlik idi.

20 gold bowls that altogether weighed (19 pounds/8.6 kg.), and two items made of polished bronze that were as valuable as ones made of gold.

28 Mǝn ularƣa: — Silǝr Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa muⱪǝddǝstursilǝr, ⱪaqa-ⱪuqilarmu muⱪǝddǝstur, altun-kümüxlǝr ata-bowanglarning Hudasi Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa ihtiyariy ⱨǝdiyǝ ⱪilinƣan sowƣattur.

I said to those priests, “You belong to Yahweh, the God whom our ancestors (worshiped/also belonged to), and these valuable things also belong to him. The people themselves gave these things to be offerings to Yahweh (voluntarily/because they wanted to).

29 Taki Yerusalemdiki Pǝrwǝrdigarning ɵyidiki ambar-hǝzinilǝrgǝ yǝtküzüp, kaⱨinlar wǝ Lawiylarning baxliri wǝ Israillarning ⱪǝbilǝ-jǝmǝt baxliⱪlirining aldida tarazidin ɵtküzgüqǝ bularni obdan ⱪarap ⱪoƣdanglar, dedim.

So guard them carefully, and [when we arrive] in Jerusalem, weigh them in the presence of the priests, the descendants of Levi [who will help the priests], and the other Israeli leaders there. They will then put them in the storerooms in the new temple.”

30 Xuning bilǝn kaⱨinlar bilǝn Lawiylar Yerusalemdiki Hudayimizning ɵyigǝ apiridiƣan, tarazidin ɵtküzülgǝn xu altun-kümüx wǝ ⱪaqa-ⱪuqilarni tapxuruwaldi.

So the priests and [other] descendants of Levi took from me all the gifts of silver and gold and the other valuable items, in order to carry them to the temple in Jerusalem.

31 Xuning bilǝn birinqi ayning on ikkinqi küni biz Ahawa dǝryasining boyidin ⱪozƣilip Yerusalemƣa qiⱪixⱪa mangduⱪ. Hudayimizning ⱪoli üstimizdǝ bolƣaqⱪa, u bizni düxmǝnlirimizdin wǝ yolda paylap turƣan ⱪaraⱪqilardinmu ⱪutⱪuzdi.

On April 19, we left the Ahava Canal and started to travel to Jerusalem. Our God took care of us, and while we traveled, he prevented our enemies and bandits from (ambushing us/suddenly attacking us).

32 Biz Yerusalemƣa kelip u yǝrdǝ üq kün turduⱪ;

After we arrived in Jerusalem, we rested for three days.

33 tɵtinqi küni Hudayimizning ɵyidǝ altun-kümüx wǝ ⱪaqa-ⱪuqilar tarazida ɵlqinip kaⱨin Uriyaning oƣli Mǝrǝmotning ⱪoliƣa tapxuruldi; uning yenida Finiⱨasning oƣli Əliazar, yǝnǝ Lawiylardin Yǝxuaning oƣli Yozabad bilǝn Binnuiyning oƣli Noadiyaⱨlar bar idi.

Then on the fourth/next day we went to the temple. There the silver and gold and the other items were weighed and given to the priest Meremoth, the son of Uriah. Eleazar the son of Phinehas and two descendants of Levi, Jozabad the son of Jeshua and Noadiah the son of Binnui, were with him.

34 Ⱨǝmmǝ nǝrsǝ sani boyiqǝ wǝ eƣirliⱪi boyiqǝ ɵlqǝndi wǝ xuning bilǝn billǝ ⱨǝrbirining eƣirliⱪi pütüp ⱪoyuldi.

They counted everything, and wrote down how much they weighed, and wrote [a description of] each item.

35 Xu qaƣda ǝsli elip ketilgǝnlǝrning ǝwladliri, yǝni sürgünlüktin ⱪaytⱪanlar Israillarning Hudasiƣa «kɵydürmǝ ⱪurbanliⱪ» süpitidǝ pütkül Israil üqün on ikki torpaⱪ, toⱪsan altǝ ⱪoqⱪar, yǝtmix yǝttǝ ⱪoza sundi, yǝnǝ gunaⱨ ⱪurbanliⱪi süpitidǝ on ikki tekǝ sundi; bularning ⱨǝmmisi Pǝrwǝrdigarƣa atalƣan kɵydürmǝ ⱪurbanliⱪ idi.

We who had returned from Babylonia offered to God sacrifices on the altar. We offered twelve bulls for all us Israeli people. We also offered 96 rams and 27 lambs. We also sacrificed twelve goats [to atone] for the sins that all the people had committed. These were all completely burned on the altar.

36 Ular padixaⱨning yarliⱪ hǝtlirini padixaⱨning waliyliriƣa wǝ Dǝryaning bu ƣǝrb tǝripidiki ⱨɵkümdarlarƣa tapxuruwidi, ular hǝlⱪⱪǝ wǝ Hudaning ɵyining ixliriƣa izqil yardǝm bǝrdi.

Some of us who returned [from Babylonia] took to the governors and other officials of the province west of the [Euphrates] River the letter that the king had given to us. [After they read the letter, ] they did all [that they were able to do] for us Israeli people and for the temple of God.
