Ezra 3
1 Nígbà tí ó di oṣù keje tí àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì ti wà nínú àwọn ìlú wọn, àwọn ènìyàn péjọpọ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹnìkan ní Jerusalẹmu.
And when the seventh month came, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered together as one man to Jerusalem.
2 Nígbà náà ni Jeṣua ọmọ Josadaki àti àwọn àlùfáà ẹlẹgbẹ́ ẹ rẹ̀ Serubbabeli ọmọ Ṣealitieli àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní kọ́ pẹpẹ Ọlọ́run Israẹli láti rú ẹbọ sísun níbẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìlànà tí a ti kọ sínú ìwé òfin Mose ènìyàn Ọlọ́run.
Then stood up Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer up burnt-offerings on it, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.
3 Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ wí pé ẹ̀rù àwọn ènìyàn tí ó yí wọn ká ń bà wọ́n síbẹ̀, wọ́n kọ́ pẹpẹ sórí ìpìlẹ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n sì rú ẹbọ sísun lórí rẹ̀ sí Olúwa, ọrẹ àárọ̀ àti ìrọ̀lẹ́.
And they set the altar on its base; for fear was upon them because of the people of the countries; and they offered up burnt-offerings on it to Jehovah, the morning and evening burnt-offerings.
4 Nígbà náà ní ìbámu pẹ̀lú ohun tí a kọ, wọ́n ṣe àjọ àgọ́ ìpàdé pẹ̀lú iye ẹbọ sísun tí a fi lélẹ̀ fún ọjọ́ kọ̀ọ̀kan.
And they held the feast of tabernacles as it is written, and [offered] daily burnt-offerings by number, according to the ordinance, as the duty of every day required;
5 Lẹ́yìn náà, wọ́n ṣe ìrúbọ ẹbọ sísun àtìgbàdégbà, ẹbọ oṣù tuntun àti gbogbo àwọn ẹbọ fún gbogbo àpèjẹ tí a yà sọ́tọ̀ fún Olúwa, àti àwọn tí a mú wá gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọrẹ àtinúwá fún Olúwa.
and afterwards the continual burnt-offering, and those of the new moons, and of all the set feasts of Jehovah that were consecrated, and of every one that willingly offered a voluntary offering to Jehovah.
6 Ní ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní oṣù keje, wọ́n bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní rú ẹbọ sísun sí Olúwa, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé a kò ì tí ì fi ìpìlẹ̀ ilé Olúwa lélẹ̀.
From the first day of the seventh month they began to offer up burnt-offerings to Jehovah. But the foundation of the temple of Jehovah was not [yet] laid.
7 Nígbà náà ni wọ́n fún àwọn ọ̀mọ̀lé àti àwọn gbẹ́nàgbẹ́nà ní owó, wọ́n sì tún fi oúnjẹ, ohun mímu àti òróró fún àwọn ará Sidoni àti Tire, kí wọ́n ba à le è kó igi kedari gba ti orí omi Òkun láti Lebanoni wá sí Joppa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Kirusi ọba Persia ti pàṣẹ.
And they gave money to the masons and to the carpenters; and meat and drink and oil to the Zidonians and to the Tyrians, to bring cedar-trees from Lebanon to the sea at Joppa, according to the grant that they had of Cyrus king of Persia.
8 Ní oṣù kejì ọdún kejì lẹ́yìn tí wọ́n ti padà dé sí ilé Ọlọ́run ní Jerusalẹmu, Serubbabeli ọmọ Ṣealitieli, Jeṣua ọmọ Josadaki àti àwọn arákùnrin yòókù (àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ará Lefi àti gbogbo àwọn tí ó ti ìgbèkùn dé sí Jerusalẹmu) bẹ̀rẹ̀ iṣẹ́ náà. Wọ́n sì yan àwọn ọmọ Lefi tí ó tó ọmọ-ogun ọdún sókè láti máa bojútó kíkọ́ ilé Olúwa.
And in the second year of their coming to the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all they that had come out of the captivity to Jerusalem; and they appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to superintend the work of the house of Jehovah.
9 Jeṣua àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ àti àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ àti Kadmieli àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, àwọn ọmọ Juda (àwọn ìran Hodafiah) àti àwọn ọmọ Henadadi àti àwọn ọmọ wọn àti àwọn arákùnrin wọn—gbogbo ará Lefi—parapọ̀ láti bojútó àwọn òṣìṣẹ́ náà tí wọ́n ń ṣiṣẹ́ lórí í kíkọ́ ilé Ọlọ́run.
And Jeshua stood up, his sons and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, as one [man], to superintend the workmen in the house of God; [also] the sons of Henadad, their sons and their brethren, the Levites.
10 Nígbà tí àwọn ọ̀mọ̀lé gbé ìpìlẹ̀ ilé Olúwa kalẹ̀, àwọn àlùfáà nínú aṣọ iṣẹ́ àlùfáà wọn pẹ̀lú fèrè, àti àwọn ará Lefi (àwọn ọmọ Asafu) pẹ̀lú símbálì, dúró ní ipò wọn láti yin Olúwa, bí Dafidi ọba Israẹli ti fi lélẹ̀.
And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of Jehovah, they set the priests in their apparel, with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph, with cymbals, to praise Jehovah according to the directions of David king of Israel.
11 Pẹ̀lú ìyìn àti ọpẹ́ ni wọ́n kọrin sí Olúwa: “Ó dára; ìfẹ́ rẹ̀ sí Israẹli dúró títí láé.” Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sì fi ohùn ariwo ńlá yin Olúwa, nítorí tí a ti fi ìpìlẹ̀ ilé Olúwa lélẹ̀.
And they sang alternately together in praising and giving thanks to Jehovah: For he is good, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout to the praise of Jehovah, because the foundation of the house of Jehovah was laid.
12 Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀pọ̀ lára àwọn àgbà àlùfáà àti àwọn ará Lefi àti àwọn olórí ìdílé, tí ó ti rí tẹmpili Olúwa ti tẹ́lẹ̀, wọ́n sọkún kíkorò nígbà tí wọ́n rí ìpìlẹ̀ tẹmpili Olúwa yìí tí wọ́n fi lélẹ̀, nígbà tí ọ̀pọ̀ kígbe fún ayọ̀.
But many of the priests and Levites and chief fathers, the ancient men that had seen the first house, wept with a loud voice, [when] the foundation of this house was laid in their sight; and many shouted aloud for joy.
13 Kò sí ẹni tí ó le mọ ìyàtọ̀ láàrín igbe ayọ̀ àti ẹkún, nítorí tí ariwo àwọn ènìyàn náà pọ̀ tó bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́ẹ́. Wọ́n sì gbọ́ igbe náà ní ọ̀nà jíjìn réré.
And the people could not discern the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people; for the people shouted with a great shout, and the noise was heard afar off.
