Esdras 3
1 Lè pou setyèm mwa lanne jwif yo rive, moun pèp Izrayèl yo te gen tan chita lakay yo nan lavil yo. Lè sa a, yo tout yo sanble lavil Jerizalèm.
And it arrived the month seventh and [the] people of Israel [were] in the cities. And they gathered the people like a man one to Jerusalem.
2 Jozye, pitit gason Jeozadak la, ak tout prèt parèy li yo leve ansanm ak Zowobabèl, pitit gason Chealtyèl la, ak tout fanmi l' yo, yo rebati lotèl Bondye pèp Izrayèl la pou yo te ka boule ofrann bèt sou li, dapre regleman ki ekri nan lalwa Moyiz, sèvitè Bondye a.
And he arose Jeshua [the] son of Jozadak and brothers his the priests and Zerubbabel [the] son of Shealtiel and brothers his and they rebuilt [the] altar of [the] God of Israel to offer up on it burnt offerings according to [what] is written in [the] law of Moses [the] man of God.
3 Atout yo te pè lòt moun yo ki t'ap viv nan peyi a, yo rebati lotèl la menm kote li te ye anvan an. Epi yo tanmen boule bèt sou li pou Seyè a, chak maten ak chak aswè.
And they established the altar on foundations its for terror [was] on them from [the] peoples of the lands (and they offered up *QK) on it burnt offerings to Yahweh burnt offerings of the morning and of the evening.
4 Yo fete fèt Joupa yo, dapre sa ki ekri a. Chak jou yo te ofri kantite bèt yo te dwe boule pou jou sa a.
And they celebrated [the] festival of booths according to [what] is written and a burnt offering of a day in a day by number according to [the] ordinance of [the] matter of a day in day its.
5 Apre sa, yo ofri bèt pou yo boule chak jou a, bèt pou yo boule chak fèt lalin nouvèl yo, ak bèt pou tout lòt jou y'ap fè fèt pou Seyè a, ansanm ak tout lòt ofrann moun yo vle fè pou Seyè a san se pa li ki mande yo fè l'.
And after this a burnt offering of continuity and for the new moons and for all [the] appointed times of Yahweh consecrated and for every [one who] offered a freewill offering to Yahweh.
6 Pèp la pa t' ankò mete men nan tanp lan, men depi premye jou setyèm mwa a yo te konmanse ap boule bèt nèt pou Seyè a.
From day one of the month seventh they began to offer up burnt offerings to Yahweh and [the] temple of Yahweh not it was founded.
7 Pèp la bay lajan pou peye bòs ki t'ap taye wòch yo ak bòs chapant yo. Yo bay pwovizyon, bwason ak lwil pou yo voye lavil Tir ak lavil Sidon pou bwa sèd y'ap achte nan men moun la yo. Bwa yo te soti peyi Liban, yo pase sou lanmè, yo debake Jope. Yo fè tou sa dapre otorizasyon Siris, wa peyi Pès la, te ba yo.
And people gave money to the masons and to the craftsmen and food and drink and oil to the Sidonians and to the Tyrians to bring wood of cedar from Lebanon to [the] sea of Joppa according to [the] permission of Cyrus [the] king of Persia to them.
8 Te gen ennan yon mwa depi yo te rive lavil Jerizalèm sou anplasman tanp Seyè a, lè Zowobabèl, pitit gason Chealtyèl la, ak Jozye, pitit gason Jeozadak la, te mete men nan travay la ansanm ak rès moun pèp la, prèt yo ak moun Levi yo, avèk tout moun ki te tounen lavil Jerizalèm. Yo pran tout moun Levi ki te gen ventan osinon plis, yo mete yo anchaj pou dirije tout travay ki t'ap fèt nan tanp Seyè a.
And in the year second of coming their to [the] house of God to Jerusalem in the month second they began Zerubbabel [the] son of Shealtiel and Jeshua [the] son of Jozadak and [the] rest of brothers their - the priests and the Levites and all those [who] had come from the captivity Jerusalem and they appointed the Levites from a son of twenty year[s] and up-wards to act as overseers over [the] work of [the] house of Yahweh.
9 Se konsa Jozye, pitit gason l' yo ak lòt fanmi li yo, ansanm ak Kadmyèl ak pitit gason l' yo, moun fanmi Jida, mete tèt yo ansanm, yo pran reskonsablite travay ki t'ap fèt nan tanp Bondye a.
And he stood Jeshua sons his and brothers his Kadmiel and sons his [the] sons of Judah as one to act as overseers over [the] doer of the work on [the] house of God. [the] sons of Henadad sons their and brothers their the Levites.
10 Lè bòs mason yo te konmanse ak premye fondasyon tanp Seyè a, prèt yo avèk gwo rad yo sou yo, twonpèt yo nan men yo, vin pran plas yo ansanm ak moun Levi branch fanmi Asaf yo ak tanbouren yo nan men yo. Yo te fè lwanj Seyè a dapre regleman David, wa peyi Izrayèl la, te bay depi lontan.
And they founded the builders [the] temple of Yahweh and they appointed the priests fully clothed with trumpets and the Levites [the] sons of Asaph with cymbals to praise Yahweh on [the] hands of David [the] king of Israel.
11 Yo t'ap fè lwanj Seyè a, yo t'ap di l' mèsi, yo t'ap chante yonn apre lòt: Ala bon Seyè a bon! Li p'ap janm sispann renmen pèp Izrayèl la Tout pèp la t'ap rele byen fò. Yo t'ap fè lwanj Seyè a, paske yo t'ap mete men nan travay fondasyon tanp Seyè a.
And they sang with praising and with giving thanks to Yahweh for [he is] good for for ever covenant loyalty his [is] towards Israel and all the people they shouted a shout of joy great with praising Yahweh because it was founded [the] house of Yahweh.
12 Te gen anpil prèt, anpil moun Levi ak anpil chèf fanmi ki te fin vye granmoun. Yo te konnen ansyen tanp lan anvan li te kraze. Lè yo wè fondasyon tanp lan t'ap moute ankò devan je yo, genyen ki t'ap kriye ak dlo nan je. Men, anpil lòt t'ap rele sitèlman yo te kontan.
And many of the priests and the Levites and [the] heads of the fathers old who they had seen the house first when founded it this the house with own eyes their [were] weeping with a voice great and many [people] with a shout of joy with gladness to lift up a voice.
13 Men, pesonn pa t' ka di kilès ki t'ap rele ak kè kontan, kilès ki t'ap plede kriye ak dlo nan je, paske tout pèp la t'ap rele ansanm byen fò. Moun te ka tande yo byen lwen.
And not the people [were] recognizing [the] sound of [the] shout of happiness to [the] sound of [the] weeping of the people for the people [were] shouting a shout of joy great and the sound it was heard to from a distance.
