< Ezra 8 >

1 Now these are the heads of their fathers’ households, and this is the genealogy of those who went up with me from Babylon, in the reign of Artaxerxes the king:
Pa inge inen sifen sou su muta in sruoh in Babylonia ac welul Ezra folokla nu Jerusalem ke pacl Artaxerxes el tokosra fulat:
2 Of the sons of Phinehas, Gershom. Of the sons of Ithamar, Daniel. Of the sons of David, Hattush.
Gershom ke fwil natul Phinehas Daniel ke fwil natul Ithamar Hattush, wen natul Shecaniah, ke fwil natul David
3 Of the sons of Shecaniah, of the sons of Parosh, Zechariah; and with him were listed by genealogy of the males one hundred fifty.
Zechariah ke fwil natul Parosh wi mwet 150 ke sou lulap lal (simisyukla inen mwet in sou lalos ke sramsram matu)
4 Of the sons of Pahathmoab, Eliehoenai the son of Zerahiah; and with him two hundred males.

5 Of the sons of Shecaniah, the son of Jahaziel; and with him three hundred males.

6 Of the sons of Adin, Ebed the son of Jonathan; and with him fifty males.
Ebed, wen natul Jonathan, ke fwil natul Adin, wi mukul 50

11 Of the sons of Bebai, Zechariah the son of Bebai; and with him twenty-eight males.
Zechariah, wen natul Bebai, ke fwil natul Bebai, wi mukul 28
12 Of the sons of Azgad, Johanan the son of Hakkatan; and with him one hundred ten males.
Johanan, wen natul Hakkatan, ke fwil natul Azgad, wi mukul 110
13 Of the sons of Adonikam, who were the last, their names are: Eliphelet, Jeuel, and Shemaiah; and with them sixty males.
Eliphelet, Jeuel, ac Shemaiah ke fwil natul Adonikam, wi mukul 60, (elos folokla ke sie pacl tok)
14 Of the sons of Bigvai, Uthai and Zabbud; and with them seventy males.
Uthai ac Zaccur ke fwil natul Bigvai, wi mukul 70
15 I gathered them together to the river that runs to Ahava; and there we encamped three days. Then I looked around at the people and the priests, and found there were none of the sons of Levi.
Nga orani u nufon sac nu pe inyoa soko ma sasla nu Ahava, ac kut aktuktuk we len tolu. Nga konauk lah oasr mwet tol in u sac, a wangin mwet Levi.
16 Then I sent for Eliezer, for Ariel, for Shemaiah, for Elnathan, for Jarib, for Elnathan, for Nathan, for Zechariah, and for Meshullam, chief men; also for Joiarib and for Elnathan, who were teachers.
Nga sapla suli eu sin mwet kol lalos: Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah, ac Meshullam, oayapa luo mwet luti: Joiarib ac Elnathan.
17 I sent them out to Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia; and I told them what they should tell Iddo and his brothers the temple servants at the place Casiphia, that they should bring to us ministers for the house of our God.
Nga supwalosla nu yorol Iddo, su leumi acn Casiphia, in siyuk sel ac mwet kasru lal su orekma ke Tempul, tuh elos in supwama mwet in kulansap nu sin God in Tempul.
18 According to the good hand of our God on us they brought us a man of discretion, of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel, namely Sherebiah, with his sons and his brothers, eighteen;
Ke lungkulang lun God, elos supwalma Sherebiah, sie mwet fas, su mwet Levi se in fwil natul Mahli; ac mukul singoul oalkosr sin wen natul ac tamulel lal welul tuku.
19 and Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brothers and their sons, twenty;
Elos oayapa supwalma Hashabiah ac Jeshaiah ke fwil natul Merari, wi mwet longoul sin mwet laltal.
20 and of the temple servants, whom David and the princes had given for the service of the Levites, two hundred twenty temple servants. All of them were mentioned by name.
Sayen mwet inge, oasr luofoko longoul mwet orekma ke Tempul su mwet matu lalos tuh srisrngiyuki sel Tokosra David ac mwet pwapa lal tuh elos in kasru mwet Levi. Simisyukla inelos kais sie.
21 Then I proclaimed a fast there at the river Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek from him a straight way for us, for our little ones, and for all our possessions.
Ingo sisken Inyoa Ahava, nga sapkin tuh kut nukewa in lalo ac akpusiselye kut ye mutun God lasr, ac siyuk sel tuh Elan kol kut ke fahsr lasr ac lisringkuti ac tulik natusr ac ma lasr nukewa.
22 For I was ashamed to ask of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy on the way, because we had spoken to the king, saying, “The hand of our God is on all those who seek him, for good; but his power and his wrath is against all those who forsake him.”
Nga lukun mwekin in siyuk sin tokosra fulat ke sie u in mwet mweun ma kasrusr fin horse in karingin kut ke fufahsryesr lasr liki kutena mwet lokoalok, mweyen nga fahk nu sel tari lah God lasr El akinsewowoyalos nukewa su lulalfongi El, a El lain ac kalyei kutena su forla lukel.
23 So we fasted and begged our God for this, and he granted our request.
Ouinge kut lalo ac pre tuh God Elan karingin kut, ac El topuk pre lasr.
24 Then I set apart twelve of the chiefs of the priests, even Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers with them,
Inmasrlon mwet tol su fulat, nga tuh sulella Sherebiah, Hashabiah, ac mwet singoul saya.
25 and weighed to them the silver, the gold, and the vessels, even the offering for the house of our God, which the king, his counselors, his princes, and all Israel there present, had offered.
Na nga pauniya silver, gold ac ahlu in kulansap ma tokosra fulat, mwet pwapa ac mwet fulat lal oayapa mwet Israel nukewa elos tuh sang in orekmakinyuk in Tempul, ac nga sang nu sin mwet tol.
26 I weighed into their hand six hundred fifty talents of silver, one hundred talents of silver vessels, one hundred talents of gold,
Pa inge ma nga sang nu selos: silver — ton 25 100 ahlu silver, kufwen mwe orekma — paun 150 gold — paun 7,500
27 twenty bowls of gold weighing one thousand darics, and two vessels of fine bright bronze, precious as gold.
20 ahlu gold — paun 16 tafu 2 ahlu bronze wowo — lupan molo uh oana molin ahlu gold.
28 I said to them, “You are holy to the LORD, and the vessels are holy. The silver and the gold are a free will offering to the LORD, the God of your fathers.
Nga fahk nu selos, “Kowos mutal ye mutun LEUM GOD lun mwet matu lowos, ac oayapa ahlu silver ac gold su itukyang nu sel ke insewowo, ma inge mutal pac.
29 Watch and keep them until you weigh them before the chiefs of the priests, the Levites, and the princes of the fathers’ households of Israel at Jerusalem, in the rooms of the LORD’s house.”
Kowos karinganang akwoya nwe ke kowos sun Tempul. Kowos pauniya ma inge infukil lun mwet tol, ac sang nu sin mwet kol lun mwet tol ac mwet Levi, ac nu sin mwet kol lun Israel in Jerusalem.”
30 So the priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver, the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem to the house of our God.
Ke ma inge mwet tol ac mwet Levi elos eis ac fosrngakin silver, gold, ac kufwen mwe orekma, ac elos usla nu in Tempul Jerusalem.
31 Then we departed from the river Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go to Jerusalem. The hand of our God was on us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy and the bandits by the way.
Len se aksingoul luo ke malem se meet pa kut mukuiyak liki Inyoa Ahava in som nu Jerusalem. God lasr El wi kut ac karingin kut liki mwet lokoalok ac liki mwet su akola in kasriki kut inkanek ah.
32 We came to Jerusalem, and stayed there three days.
Ke kut sun acn Jerusalem, kut muta mongla len tolu.
33 On the fourth day the silver and the gold and the vessels were weighed in the house of our God into the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest; and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas; and with them were Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of Binnui, the Levites.
Na len se akakosr kut som nu ke Tempul, pauniya silver, gold, ac kufwen mwe orekma, na kut sang nu sel Meremoth mwet tol, wen natul Uriah. Mwet tolu welul pa: Eleazar wen natul Phinehas, ac mwet Levi luo, Jozabad wen natul Jeshua, ac Noadiah wen natul Binnui.
34 Everything was counted and weighed; and all the weight was written at that time.
Ma nukewa oaoala ac paunyuki, ac simla in pacl sac pacna.
35 The children of the captivity, who had come out of exile, offered burnt offerings to the God of Israel: twelve bulls for all Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, and twelve male goats for a sin offering. All this was a burnt offering to the LORD.
Na mwet nukewa su foloko liki sruoh elos use mwe sang lalos tuh in mwe kisa firir nu sin God lun Israel. Elos sang cow mukul 12 ke Israel nufon, wi sheep mukul 96, ac sheep fusr 77. Elos oayapa sang nani 12 mwe aknasnasyalos liki ma koluk. Ma inge nukewa mwe kisa firir nu sin LEUM GOD.
36 They delivered the king’s commissions to the king’s local governors and to the governors beyond the River. So they supported the people and God’s house.
Elos oayapa usla leta se ma tokosra fulat el tuh sang nu selos ac sang nu sel governor ac mwet pwapa lun acn Roto-in-Euphrates, na mwet inge elos oru pac kasru lalos nu sin mwet uh ac nu ke alu in Tempul.
