mwana wa Zerahiya, mwana wa Uzi, mwana wa Buki,
5 sone of Bocci, sone of Abisue, sone of Phynees, sone of Eleazar, sone of Aaron, preest at the bigynnyng, was in the rewme of Artaxerses, king of Persis; thilke Esdras stiede fro Babiloyne,
mwana wa Abisuwa, mwana wa Finehasi, mwana wa Eliezara, mwana wa Aaroni mkulu wa ansembe uja.
6 and he was a swift writere in the lawe of Moises, which the Lord God of Israel yaf; and the kyng yaf to hym al his axyng, by the goode hoond of his Lord God on hym.
Ezara ameneyu anabwera kuchokera ku Babuloni. Iyeyu anali wophunzira kwambiri za malamulo a Mose, amene Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli anapereka. Mfumu inamupatsa chilichonse chimene anapempha pakuti dzanja la Yehova Mulungu wake linali pa iye.
7 And there stieden of the sones of Israel, and of the sones of preestis, and of the sones of dekenes, and of the syngeris, and of the porteris, and of Nathyneis, `in to Jerusalem in the seuenthe yeer of Artaxerses, kyng.
Tsono mʼchaka cha chisanu ndi chiwiri cha ufumu wa Aritasasita, Ezara pamodzi ndi Aisraeli ena, kuphatikizapo ansembe, Alevi, oyimba nyimbo, alonda, ndi anthu ogwira ntchito ku Nyumba ya Mulungu ananyamuka kubwerera ku Yerusalemu.
8 And thei camen in to Jerusalem in the fyuethe monethe; thilke is the seuenthe of the kyng.
Ezara anafika ku Yerusalemu pa mwezi wachisanu wa chaka chachisanu ndi chiwiri cha mfumu.
9 For in the firste dai of the firste monethe he bigan to stie fro Babiloyne, and in the firste dai of the fyuethe monethe he cam in to Jerusalem, bi the good hond of his God on hym. Forsothe
Iye anayamba ulendo wochoka ku Babuloni pa tsiku loyamba la mwezi woyamba, ndipo anafika ku Yerusalemu pa tsiku loyamba la mwezi wachisanu chifukwa dzanja labwino la Mulungu wake linali pa iye.
10 Esdras made redi his herte to enquere the lawe of the Lord, and to do, and teche in Israel the comaundement and doom.
Popeza Ezara anadzipereka kuwerenga ndi kusunga malamulo a Yehova, iye anafunitsitsa kuphunzitsa Aisraeli malamulo ndi malangizo a Mulungu.
11 Sotheli this is the saumpler of the pistle of the comaundement, which the kyng Artaxerses yaf to Esdras, preest, writere lerud in the wordis and comaundementis of the Lord, and in hise cerymonyes in Israel.
Iyi ndi kalata imene mfumu Aritasasita anapereka kwa wansembe Ezara, mlembi wa malamulo, munthu wophunzira kwambiri zokhudza malamulo ndi malangizo amene Yehova anapereka kwa Aisraeli.
12 Artaxerses, kyng of kyngis, desirith helthe to Esdras, the preest, moost wijs writere of the lawe of God of heuene.
Ndine Aritasasita, mfumu ya mafumu. Ndikulembera iwe Ezara wansembe ndi mlembi wa malamulo a Mulungu Wakumwamba. Malonje.
13 It is demyd of me, that whom euer it plesith in my rewme of the puple of Israel, and of hise preestis, and dekenes, to go in to Jerusalem, go he with thee.
Tsopano ndikulamula kuti Mwisraeli aliyense, wansembe kapena Mlevi wokhala mʼdziko langa, amene akufuna kupita ku Yerusalemu ndi iwe, apite.
14 For thou art sent fro the face of the kyng and of hise seuene counseleris, that thou visite Judee and Jerusalem in the lawe of thi God, which is in thin hond;
Ine mfumu pamodzi ndi alangizi anga asanu ndi awiri tikukutumani kuti mukafufuze za dziko la Yuda ndi mzinda wa Yerusalemu kuti mukaone mmene anthu akutsatira malamulo a Mulungu wanu, amene anawapereka kwa inu.
15 and that thou bere siluer and gold, which the kyng and hise counseleris han offrid bi fre wille to God of Israel, whos tabernacle is in Jerusalem.
Utenge siliva ndi golide zimene ine mfumu ndi alangizi anga tapereka mwa ufulu kwa Mulungu wa Israeli, amene amakhala ku Yerusalemu.
16 And take thou freli al siluer and gold, which euer thou fyndist in al the prouynce of Babiloyne, and the puple wole offre, and of preestis that offriden bi fre wille to the hows of her God, which is in Jerusalem;
Mutengenso siliva yense ndi golide amene mungamupeze mʼdziko lonse la Babuloni, ngakhalenso zinthu zimene anthu pamodzi ndi ansembe adzapereka mwaufulu kuperekera ku Nyumba ya Mulungu wawo ya ku Yerusalemu.
17 and bie thou bisili of this monei calues, rammes, lambren, and sacrifices, and moiste sacrifices of tho; and offre thou tho on the auter of the temple of youre God, which temple is in Jerusalem.
Ndi ndalama zimenezi mudzaonetsetse kuti mwagula ngʼombe zazimuna, nkhosa zazimuna ndi ana ankhosa aamuna pamodzi ndi zopereka zake za chakudya ndi za chakumwa. Mudzapereke zimenezi pa guwa lansembe la Nyumba ya Mulungu wanu ya ku Yerusalemu.
18 But also if ony thing plesith to thee, and to thi britheren, for to do of the residue siluer and gold, do ye bi the wille of youre God;
Ndalama zotsala mudzagwiritse ntchito zimene inuyo ndi abale anu zikakukomerani malingana nʼkufuna kwa Mulungu wanu.
19 also bitake thou in the siyt of God in Jerusalem the vessels, that ben youun in to the seruyce of the hows of thi God.
Ziwiya zonse zimene akupatsani kuti mukatumikire nazo mʼNyumba ya Mulungu wanu, kaziperekeni kwa Mulungu ku Yerusalemu.
20 But also thou schalt yyue of the tresouris of the kyng, and of the comyn arke, `ethir purse, and of me `othere thingis, that ben nedeful in the hows of thi God, as myche euere as is nedeful, that thou spende.
Ndipo chilichonse chimene chingafunike mʼNyumba ya Mulungu wanu, chimene mudzapeze mpata wopereka, ndalama zake zogulira zidzachokere mʼthumba la chuma cha mfumu.
21 Y Artaxerses, kyng, haue ordeyned, and demyd to alle the keperis of the comyn arke, that ben biyende the flood, that what euer thing Esdras, the preest, writere of the lawe of God of heuene, axith of you, ye yyue with out tariyng,
Tsopano Ine, mfumu Aritasasita, ndikulamula asungichuma onse a dera la Patsidya pa Yufurate kuti, chilichonse chimene wansembe Ezara, mlembi wa malamulo a Mulungu Wakumwamba adzapempha kwa inu, mupatseni mwa msanga.
22 `til to an hundrid talentis of siluer, and to an hundrid `mesuris clepid chorus of wheete, and til an hundrid mesuris clepid bathus of wyn, and `til to an hundrid `mesuris clepid bathus of oile, salt forsothe without mesure.
Ngakhale atafunika makilogalamu 3,400 asiliva, makilogalamu 10,000 a tirigu, malita 2,000 a vinyo, malita 2,000 a mafuta ndi mchere wochuluka motani, zonsezi mupereke monga zingafunikire.
23 Al thing that perteyneth to the custom, `ethir religioun, of God of heuene, be youun diligentli in the hows of God of heuene, lest perauenture he be wrooth ayens the rewme of the kyng and of hise sones.
Chimene Mulungu Wakumwamba walamula, chichitike mosamalitsa ku Nyumba ya Mulungu Wakumwamba kuopa kuti mkwiyo wa Mulungu ungayakire mfumu, dziko lake ndi ana ake.
24 Also we make knowun to you of alle the preestis, and dekenes, syngeris, and porteris, and Nathyneis, and mynystris of the hows of this God, `that ye han not power to put on hem tol, and tribute, and costis for keperis of the lond.
Tikukudziwitsaninso kuti kudzakhala kosaloledwa kukhometsa msonkho uliwonse anthu awa: ansembe, Alevi, oyimba nyimbo, alonda kapena aliyense wogwira ntchito ku Nyumba ya Mulungu.
25 Forsothe thou, Esdras, bi the wisdom of thi God, which is in thin hond, ordeyne iugis and gouernouris, that thei deme to the puple, which is biyende the flood, that is, to hem that kunnen the lawe of thi God, and the lawe of the kyng; but also teche ye freli vnkunnynge men.
Ndipo iwe, Ezara, monga mwa nzeru za Mulungu wako zimene uli nazo, usankhe oyendetsa zinthu ndi oweruza kuti azilamulira anthu onse okhala ku dera la Patsidya pa Yufurate, onse amene amadziwa malamulo a Mulungu wako. Ndipo uphunzitse aliyense amene sawadziwa.
26 And ech man, that doth not the lawe of thi God, and the lawe of the kyng diligentli, doom schal be of hym, ethir in to the deeth, ethir in to exilyng, ethir in to condempnyng of his catel, ethir certis in to prisoun. And Esdras, the writere, seide, Blissid be the Lord God of oure fadris,
Ndipo amene sadzamvera lamulo la Mulungu wako ndi lamulo la mfumu alangidwe kolimba kapena aphedwe kapena achotsedwe mʼdzikolo, kapena katundu wake alandidwe, kapena aponyedwe mʼndende.
27 that yaf this thing in the herte of the kyng, that he schulde glorifie the hows of the Lord,
Ezara anati atamandike Yehova, Mulungu wa makolo athu, amene wayika ichi mu mtima wa mfumu kuti alemekeze Nyumba ya Yehova ya ku Yerusalemu mʼnjira imeneyi.
28 which is in Jerusalem, and bowide his mercy in to me bifor the kyng, and hise counseleris, and bifore alle the myyti princes of the kyng. And Y was coumfortid bi the hond of `my Lord God, that was in me, and Y gederide of the sones of Israel princes, that stieden with me.
Ameneyonso waonetsa chikondi chake chosasinthika kwa ine pamaso pa mfumu, alangizi ake ndi nduna zake zamphamvu kuti andikomere mtima. Choncho ndinalimba mtima popeza Yehova, Mulungu wanga anali nane, ndipo ndinasonkhanitsa atsogoleri ambiri a Israeli kuti apite nane pamodzi.
