Ezra 6
1 Imbilin ngarud ni Ari Dario ti pannakasukimat ti balay a nakaidulinan dagiti napapateg a listaan idiay Babilonia.
Then Daryavesh the king made a decree, and search was made in the house of the archives, where the treasures were laid up in Babylon.
2 Iti nasarikedkedan a siudad ti Ecbatana idiay Media, nasarakan ti maysa a nalukot a pagbasaan; daytoy ti nailanad:
There was found at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of Media, a scroll, and there was written in it as follows: "Memorandum:
3 “Iti umuna a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Cyrus, nangipaulog ni Cyrus iti bilin maipanggep iti balay ti Dios idiay Jerusalem: 'Maipalubos ti pannakaibangon ti balay a pagidatonan. Ti kangato dagiti paderna ket innem a pulo a kubiko ken ti kaakabana ket innem a pulo a kubiko,
In the first year of Koresh the king, Koresh the king made a decree: Concerning God's house at Jerusalem, let the house be built, the place where they offer sacrifices, and let its foundations be strongly laid; its height one hundred three feet and four inches; and its breadth one hundred three feet and four inches;
4 nga addaan iti tallo a katoon ti dadakkel a bato ken maysa a katoon ti barbaro a kayo. Ket ti amin a magastos ket agtaud iti balay ti ari.
with three layers of great stones, and one layer of timber. And let the expenses be given out of the king's house.
5 Kasta met a maisubli dagiti balitok ken pirak nga alikamen a kukua ti balay ti Dios nga innala ni Nebukadnesar manipud iti templo idiay Jerusalem nga impanna iti templo idiay Babilonia. Maipatulod dagitoy iti templo idiay Jerusalem ken maidulin dagitoy iti balay ti Dios.'
Also let the gold and silver vessels of God's house, which Nebuchadnezzar took forth out of the temple which is at Jerusalem, and brought to Babylon, be restored, and brought again to the temple which is at Jerusalem, everyone to its place; and you shall put them in God's house.
6 Ita, Tatnai, Setar Bozenai, ken dagiti kadduayo nga opisial nga agnanaed iti ballasiw ti karayan, saankayo a makibiang.
Now therefore, Tattenai, governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and your companions the Apharsachites, who are beyond the River, you must stay far from there.
7 Saanyo a pakibiangan ti pannakaaramid daytoy a balay ti Dios. Dagiti gobernador ken dagiti panglakayen a Judio ti mangibangonto daytoy a balay ti Dios iti dayta a lugar.
Leave the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God in its place.
8 Ibilbilinko a masapul nga aramidenyo daytoy para kadagitoy a panglakayen dagiti Judio a mangbangon iti daytoy a balay ti Dios: Dagiti pondo nga agtaud iti buis ti ari iti ballasiw ti Karayan ti mausarto a pangbayad kadagitoy a lallaki tapno saanda nga isardeng ti trabahoda.
Moreover I make a decree what you shall do to these elders of the Jews for the building of this house of God: that of the king's goods, even of the tribute beyond the River, expenses be given with all diligence to these men, that they be not hindered.
9 Aniaman a kasapulan—dagiti urbon a baka, dagiti kalakian a karnero, wenno dagiti urbon a karnero para iti daton a mapuoran para iti Dios ti Langit, agraman ti trigo, asin, arak, wenno lana, segun iti bilin dagiti padi iti Jerusalem—itedyo kadakuada dagitoy a banbanag iti inaldaw nga awan langanna.
That which they have need of, both young bulls, and rams, and lambs, for burnt offerings to the God of heaven; also wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the word of the priests who are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail;
10 Aramidenyo daytoy tapno makaidatagda iti daton iti Dios ti Langit ket ikararagandak, nga ari, ken dagiti putotko a lallaki.
that they may offer sacrifices of pleasant aroma to the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king, and of his sons.
11 Ibilbilinko a no siasinoman ti mangsalungasing iti daytoy naipaulog a bilin, masapul a maiguyod ti maysa a soleras ti balayna ket masapul a maiduyok isuna iti daytoy. Ket agbalin ngarud a gabsuon ti rugit ti balayna gapu iti daytoy.
Also I have made a decree, that whoever shall alter this word, let a beam be pulled out from his house, and let him be lifted up and fastened thereon; and let his house be made a dunghill for this:
12 Dadaelen koma ti Dios nga agnanaed sadiay ti siasinoman nga ari ken dagiti tattao a mangsalungasing iti daytoy a balay ti Dios idiay Jerusalem. Siak ni Dario a mangibilbilin iti daytoy. Aramidenyo daytoy a naan-anay!”
and the God who has caused his name to dwell there overthrow all kings and peoples who shall put forth their hand to alter the same, to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Daryavesh have made a decree; let it be done with all diligence.
13 Kalpasanna, inaramid da Tatnai, Setar Boznai, ken dagiti kakaduada dagiti amin nga imbilin ni Ari Dario.
Then Tattenai, the governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and their companions, because Daryavesh the king had sent a decree, did accordingly with all diligence.
14 Isu a nangipatakder dagiti panglakayen a Judio iti wagas nga insuro da Haggeo ken Zacarias babaen iti panangipadto. Imbangonda daytoy segun iti bilin ti Dios ti Israel, ken babaen iti bilin da Cyrus, Dario ken Artaxerxes, a dagiti ari ti Persia.
The elders of the Jews built and prospered, through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. They built and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the decree of Koresh, and Daryavesh, and Artachshasta king of Persia.
15 Nalpas ti balay iti maikatlo nga aldaw iti bulan ti Adar, ken iti maikainnem a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Dario.
This house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Daryavesh the king.
16 Dagiti Israelita, dagiti padi, dagiti Levita ken dagiti nabati kadagiti naibalud idi ti nangidaton daytoy a balay ti Dios nga addaan iti rag-o.
The children of Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and the rest of the people from the exile, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy.
17 Nangidatonda iti sangagasut a baka, sangagasut a kalakian a karnero ken uppat a gasut nga urbon ti karnero para iti pannakaidaton iti balay ti Dios. Naidaton met ti sangapulo ket dua a kalakian a kalding a kas daton gapu iti basol para iti entero nga Israel, maysa para iti tunggal tribu ti Israel.
They offered at the dedication of this house of God one hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve male goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
18 Dinutokanda pay dagiti padi ken dagiti Levita iti pannakabingay a trabaho para iti panagserbida iti Dios idiay Jerusalem, a kas iti naisurat iti Libro ni Moises.
They set the priests in their divisions, and the Levites in their courses, for the service of God, which is at Jerusalem; as it is written in the book of Moses.
19 Isu a rinambakan dagiti naipanaw idi a kas balud ti Fiesta ti Ilalabas iti maikasangapulo ket uppat nga aldaw ti umuna a bulan.
The people from the exile kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
20 Dinalusan amin dagiti Levita ken dagiti padi ti bagida ken pinartida dagiti sagut para iti Fiesta ti Ilalabas para kadagiti amin a naipanaw idi a kas balud, agraman dagiti bagida.
For the priests and the Levites had purified themselves together; all of them were pure: and they killed the Passover lamb for all the people from the exile, and for their brothers the priests, and for themselves.
21 Dagiti Israelita a nangan kadagiti sumagmamano a karne a naisagana iti Fiesta ti Ilalabas ket dagiti nagsubli manipud iti pannakaipanaw idi a kas balud ken dagiti nangilasin kadagiti bagida manipud iti kinarugit dagiti tattao iti daga ken nangbirok kenni Yahweh, a Dios ti Israel.
The children of Israel who had come again out of the captivity, and all such as had separated themselves to them from the filthiness of the nations of the land, to seek YHWH, the God of Israel, ate,
22 Rinambakanda a sirarag-o ti Fiesta ti Tinapay nga Awan Lebadurana iti las-ud ti pito nga aldaw, ta innikkan ida ni Yahweh iti rag-o ken tinignayna ti puso ti ari ti Asiria a mangpabileg kadagiti imada iti panagtrabaho iti balayna, ti balay ti Dios ti Israel.
and kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy: for YHWH had made them joyful, and had turned the heart of the king of Assyria to them, to strengthen their hands in the work of God's house, the God of Israel.
