Cesraa 8
1 Haddaba madaxdii qabiilooyinka waa kuwan, oo kanu waa abtirkii kuwii Baabuloon iga raacay waagii Boqor Artaxshasta dowladnimada haystay.

from the later descendants of Adonikam, these were their names: Eliphelet, Jeiel, and Shemaiah, and with them 60 men;
14 Wiilashii Bigwayna waxaa ka socday Cuutay iyo Sabbuud, oo waxaa iyaga la jiray toddobaatan nin.
and from the descendants of Bigvai, both Uthai and Zaccur, and with them 70 men.
15 Oo iyaga waxaan ku soo wada ururiyey webiga u socda xagga Ahawaa, oo halkaasaannu degganayn saddex maalmood; markaasaan dadkii iyo wadaaddadii u fiirsaday, oo halkaasna kama aan helin mid reer Laawi ah.
Now I assembled these exiles at the canal that flows to Ahava, and we camped there three days. And when I searched among the people and priests, I found no Levites there.
16 Oo markaasaan u cid diray Eliiceser, iyo Arii'eel, iyo Shemacyaah, iyo Elnaataan, iyo Yaariib, iyo Elnaataan, iyo Naataan, iyo Sekaryaah, iyo Meshullaam, oo wada ahaa rag madax ah, iyo weliba Yooyaariib iyo Elnaataan, oo iyana ahaa macallimiin.
Then I summoned the leaders: Eliezer, Ariel, Shemaiah, Elnathan, Jarib, Elnathan, Nathan, Zechariah, and Meshullam, as well as the teachers Joiarib and Elnathan.
17 Oo waxaan iyagii u diray Iddo oo madax ka ahaa meesha Kaasifiyaa la yidhaahdo; oo waxaan iyagii u sheegay wixii ay ku odhan lahaayeen Iddo iyo walaalihiis oo reer Netiiniim ah oo jooga meesha la yidhaahdo Kaasifiyaa, inay noo keenaan midiidinno ka dhex adeega guriga Ilaahayaga.
And I sent them to Iddo, the leader at Casiphia, with a message for him and his kinsmen, the temple servants at Casiphia, that they should bring to us ministers for the house of our God.
18 Oo sidii ay gacanta wanaagsan oo Ilaahayagu noo saarnayd, waxay noo keeneen nin waxgarad ah oo ah reer Maxlii, oo ka ah reer Laawi, oo ka sii ah reer binu Israa'iil, iyo Sheereebyaah, iyo wiilashiisii iyo walaalihiis oo siddeed iyo toban isku ahaa,
And since the gracious hand of our God was upon us, they brought us Sherebiah—a man of insight from the descendants of Mahli son of Levi, the son of Israel—along with his sons and brothers, 18 men;
19 iyo Xashabyaah, iyo Yeshacyaah oo ahaa reer Meraarii, iyo walaalihiis iyo wiilashoodii oo labaatan isku ahaa,
also Hashabiah, together with Jeshaiah, from the descendants of Merari, and his brothers and their sons, 20 men.
20 iyo reer Netiiniim oo ay Daa'uud iyo amiirradiisii u dhiibeen adeegiddii reer Laawi oo laba boqol iyo labaatan ahaa, oo dhammaantoodna ninba magiciisii baa loogu yeedhi jiray.
They also brought 220 of the temple servants, all designated by name. David and the officials had appointed them to assist the Levites.
21 Oo markaasaan, intii aannu joognay Webi Ahawaa, halkaas kaga dhawaaqay in la soomo, inaannu isku hoosaysiinno Ilaahayaga hortiisa, inaannu ka barinno jid toosan oo annaga iyo dhallaankayaga iyo xoolahayaga oo dhammuba aannu marno.
And there by the Ahava Canal I proclaimed a fast, so that we might humble ourselves before our God and ask Him for a safe journey for us and our children, with all our possessions.
22 Waayo, waxaan ka xishooday inaan boqorka weyddiisto koox askar iyo fardooley ah inay naga caawiyaan cadowga jidka noo jooga, maxaa yeelay, boqorka baannu la hadallay oo ku nidhi, Gacanta Ilaahayagu waxay saaran tahay intii isaga doondoonta oo dhan, wayna u wanaagsan tahay; laakiinse xooggiisa iyo cadhadiisu waxay ka gees yihiin in alla intii isaga ka tagta oo dhan.
For I was ashamed to ask the king for an escort of soldiers and horsemen to protect us from our enemies on the road, since we had told him, “The hand of our God is gracious to all who seek Him, but His great anger is against all who forsake Him.”
23 Sidaas daraaddeed waannu soonnay, oo waxaannu ka barinnay Ilaahayo wax taas ku saabsan, wuuna naga aqbalay.
So we fasted and petitioned our God about this, and He granted our request.
24 Markaasaan gooni u soocay laba iyo toban nin oo wadaaddada madaxdoodii ah, oo waxay ahaayeen Sheereebyaah iyo Xashabyaah, iyo toban iyaga la jiray oo walaalahood ah,
Then I set apart twelve of the leading priests, together with Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers,
25 oo waxaan u miisaamay lacagtii iyo dahabkii iyo weelashii ahaa qurbaankii loo bixiyey guriga Ilaah oo ay wada bixiyeen boqorkii iyo lataliyayaashiisii iyo amiirradiisii, iyo reer binu Israa'iilkii halkaas joogay oo dhan.
and I weighed out to them the contribution of silver and gold and the articles that the king, his counselors, his leaders, and all the Israelites there had offered for the house of our God.
26 Waxaan iyaga u miisaamay oo gacanta u geliyey lix boqol iyo konton talanti oo lacag ah, iyo weelal lacag ah oo iyana boqol talanti ah, iyo boqol talanti oo dahab ah,
I weighed out into their hands 650 talents of silver, articles of silver weighing 100 talents, 100 talents of gold,
27 iyo labaatan maddiibadood oo dahab ah oo iyana kun dirham ah, iyo laba weel oo ah naxaas dhalaalaysa oo sida dahab qaali u ah.
20 gold bowls valued at 1,000 darics, and two articles of fine polished bronze, as precious as gold.
28 Oo markaasaan ku idhi, Idinku Rabbigaad quduus u tihiin oo weelashuna waa quduus, oo lacagta iyo dahabka waa qurbaan ikhtiyaar loogu bixiyey Rabbiga ah Ilaaha awowayaashiin.
Then I told them, “You are holy to the LORD, and these articles are holy. The silver and gold are a freewill offering to the LORD, the God of your fathers.
29 Haddaba idinku dhawra oo xajiya ilaa aad ku hor miisaantaan wadaaddada sare, iyo kuwa reer Laawi, iyo amiirrada qolooyinka reer binu Israa'iil, idinkoo jooga qolladaha guriga Ilaah ee Yeruusaalem.
Guard them carefully until you weigh them out in the chambers of the house of the LORD in Jerusalem before the leading priests, Levites, and heads of the Israelite families.”
30 Sidaasay wadaaddadii iyo kuwii reer Laawi u aqbaleen miisaankii lacagtii iyo dahabkii iyo weelashii inay geeyaan Yeruusaalem iyo ilaa guriga Ilaahayo.
So the priests and Levites took charge of the silver and gold and sacred articles that had been weighed out to be taken to the house of our God in Jerusalem.
31 Markaasaannu Webi Ahawaa ka tagnay, oo Yeruusaalem u ambabbaxnay bishii kowaad maalinteedii laba iyo tobnaad; oo waxaa na saarnayd gacantii Ilaahayo, wuuna naga samatabbixiyey gacantii cadowga iyo kuwii jidka noogu gabbanayay.
On the twelfth day of the first month we set out from the Ahava Canal to go to Jerusalem, and the hand of our God was upon us to protect us from the hands of the enemies and bandits along the way.
32 Oo waxaannu nimid Yeruusaalem oo halkaasaannu intii saddex maalmood ah iska joognay.
So we arrived at Jerusalem and rested there for three days.
33 Oo maalintii afraad ayaa lacagtii iyo dahabkii iyo weelashii lagu dhex miisaamay gurigii Ilaahayo oo waxaa gacanta loo geliyey wadaadkii Mereemood oo ahaa ina Uuriyaah, oo waxaa isaga la jiray Elecaasaar oo ahaa ina Fiinexaas; oo waxaa kaloo iyaga la jiray Yoosaabaad oo ahaa ina Yeeshuuca, iyo Noocadyaah oo ahaa ina Binnuwii oo iyana ahaa reer Laawi;
On the fourth day, in the house of our God, we weighed out the silver and gold and sacred articles into the hand of Meremoth son of Uriah, the priest. Eleazar son of Phinehas was with him, along with the Levites Jozabad son of Jeshua and Noadiah son of Binnui.
34 oo alaabtii oo dhan waxay ku wada guddoomeen tiro iyo miisaan, oo miisaankii oo dhanna waagaas ayaa la wada qoray.
Everything was verified by number and weight, and the total weight was recorded at that time.
35 Oo dadkii maxaabiista ahaan jiray ee masaafuriska ka soo noqday, waxay Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil allabaryo la gubo ugu bixiyeen laba iyo toban dibi reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan aawadiis, iyo lix iyo sagaashan wan, iyo toddoba iyo toddobaatan baraar ah, iyo laba iyo toban orgi oo qurbaan dembi loo bixiyey; oo kulli intaas oo dhammu waxay ahaayeen allabaryo la gubo oo Rabbiga loo bixiyey.
Then the exiles who had returned from captivity sacrificed burnt offerings to the God of Israel: 12 bulls for all Israel, 96 rams, 77 lambs, and a sin offering of 12 male goats. All this was a burnt offering to the LORD.
36 Oo waxay amarkii boqorka u geeyeen saraakiishii boqorka iyo taliyayaashii webiga ka shisheeyey; oo iyana way taageereen dadkii iyo gurigii Ilaah.
They also delivered the king’s edicts to the royal satraps and governors of the region west of the Euphrates, who proceeded to assist the people and the house of God.
