Berean Standard Bible
1MAHOHE iho o keia mau mea, i ka wa i alii ai o Aretasaseta, ke alii o Peresia, o Ezera ke keiki a Seraia, ke keiki a Azaria, ke keiki a Hilekia,
1Many years later, during the reign of Artaxerxes king of Persia, Ezra son of Seraiah, the son of Azariah, the son of Hilkiah,
2Ke keiki a Saluma, ke keiki a Zadoka, ke keiki a Ahituba,
2the son of Shallum, the son of Zadok, the son of Ahitub,
3Ke keiki a Amaria, ke keiki a Azaria, ke keiki a Meraiota,
3the son of Amariah, the son of Azariah, the son of Meraioth,
4Ke keiki a Zerahia, ke keiki a Uzi, ke keiki a Buki,
4the son of Zerahiah, the son of Uzzi, the son of Bukki,
5Ke keiki a Abisua, ke keiki a Pinehasa, ke keiki a Eleazara, ke keiki a Aarona ke kakuna nui:
5the son of Abishua, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the chief priest—
6O ua Ezera la, pii aku la ia mai Babulona aku; a he kakauolelo makaukau no ia ma ke kanawai o Mose, ka mea a Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela i haawi mai ai; a haawi mai ke alii ia ia i ka mea a pau ana i noi ai, mamuli o ka lima o Iehova o kona Akua maluna ona.
6this Ezra came up from Babylon. He was a scribe skilled in the Law of Moses, which the LORD, the God of Israel, had given. The king had granted Ezra all his requests, for the hand of the LORD his God was upon him.
7A pii ae la kekahi poe o na mamo a Iseraela, a o na kahuna, a me ua Levi, a me ka poe mele, a me na kiaipuka, a me ka poe Netini, i Ierusalema, i ka hiku o ka makahiki o Aretasaseta ke alii.
7So in the seventh year of King Artaxerxes, he went up to Jerusalem with some of the Israelites, including priests, Levites, singers, gatekeepers, and temple servants.
8A hele mai ia i Ierusalema i ka lima o ka malama, oia hoi ka hiku o ka makahiki o ke alii.
8Ezra arrived in Jerusalem in the fifth month of the seventh year of the king.
9No ka mea, i ka la mua o ka malama mua kona hoomaka ana e pii mai Babulona aku, a i ka la mua o ka lima o ka malama, hiki aku ia i Ierusalema, mamuli o ka lima o kona Akua maluna ona e pono ai.
9He had begun the journey from Babylon on the first day of the first month, and he arrived in Jerusalem on the first day of the fifth month, for the gracious hand of his God was upon him.
10No ka mea, ua hoomakaukau o Ezera i kona naau e imi i ke kanawai o Iehova, a e hana aku hoi, a e ao aku iloko o ka Iseraela i ke kanawai, a me ka olelo kupaa.
10For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, to practice it, and to teach its statutes and ordinances in Israel.
11Eia ko kope o ka palapala a Aretasaseta ke alii i haawi aku ai ia Ezera ke kahuna, ke kakauolelo, he kakauolelo no na kauoha a Iehova, a me kona mau kanawai i ka Iseraela.
11This is the text of the letter King Artaxerxes had given to Ezra the priest and scribe, an expert in the commandments and statutes of the LORD to Israel:
12O Aretasaseta, ke alii o na'lii, ia Ezera ke kahuna, he kakauolelo akamai ma ke kanawai o ke Akua o ka lani, a pela aku no.
12Artaxerxes, king of kings. To Ezra the priest, the scribe of the Law of the God of heaven: Greetings.
13Na'u no e kauoha aku, o kela mea keia mea o na kanaka o ka Iseraela, o na kahuna, a me na Levi iloko o ko'u aupuni, i makemake e hele i Ierusalema, e hele no me oe.
13I hereby decree that any volunteers among the Israelites in my kingdom, including the priests and Levites, may go up with you to Jerusalem.
14No ka mea, ua hoounaia'ku oe mai ke alo aku o ke alii, a me na kakaolelo ona ehiku, e nana aku i ko Iudea, a me ko Ierusalema, mamuli o ke kanawai o kou Akua ma kou lima;
14You are sent by the king and his seven counselors to evaluate Judah and Jerusalem according to the Law of your God, which is in your hand.
15A e lawe aku hoi i ke kala a me ke gula a ke alii, a me kona mau kakaolelo i mohai aku ai no ke Akua o ka Iseraela, aia ma Ierusalema kona noho ana,
15Moreover, you are to take with you the silver and gold that the king and his counselors have freely offered to the God of Israel, whose dwelling is in Jerusalem,
16A o ke kala a pau a me ke gula e loaa ia oe iloko o ka aina o Babulona nei, me na manawalea a na kanaka, a me na kahuna i mohai ai no ka hale o ko lakou Akua ma Ierusalema;
16together with all the silver and gold you may find in all the province of Babylon, as well as the freewill offerings of the people and priests to the house of their God in Jerusalem.
17I kuai koke aku ai oe me keia kala i na bipikane, a me na hipakane, a me na keikihipa a me ka lakou mohai ai a me na mohai inu, a kaumaha aku ia lakou maluna o ke kuahu o ka hale o ko oukou Akua ma Ierusalema.
17With this money, therefore, you are to buy as many bulls, rams, and lambs as needed, together with their grain offerings and drink offerings, and offer them on the altar at the house of your God in Jerusalem.
18A o ka pono ia oe, a i kou poe hoahanau, e hana me ke koena o ke kala, a me ke gula, oia ka oukou e hana'i ma ka makemake o ko oukou Akua.
18You and your brothers may do whatever seems best with the rest of the silver and gold, according to the will of your God.
19A o na kiaha hoi i haawiia nou no ka hana ma ka hale o kou Akua, oia mau mea kau e hoihoi aku ai imua o ke Akua o Ierusalema.
19You must deliver to the God of Jerusalem all the articles given to you for the service of the house of your God.
20A o na mea e ae i pono ai ka hale o kou Akua, au e manao e haawi aku, e haawi aku no oe noloko mai o ka halewaiwai o ke alii.
20And if anything else is needed for the house of your God that you may have occasion to supply, you may pay for it from the royal treasury.
21A owau, owau o Aretasaseta ke alii, ke kauoha aku nei i ka poe malama waiwai a pau ma kela aoao o ka muliwai, o na mea a pau a Ezera ke kahuna, ke kakauolelo o ke kanawai o ke Akua o ka lani, e noi aku ai ia oukou, e hana koke ia ia mea;
21I, King Artaxerxes, decree to all the treasurers west of the Euphrates: Whatever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the Law of the God of heaven, may require of you, it must be provided promptly,
22A hiki i ka haneri talena kala, a i haneri kora hua palaoa, a i ka haneri bato waina, a i ka haneri bato aila, a me ka paakai aole e hoakakaia.
22up to a hundred talents of silver, a hundred cors of wheat, a hundred baths of wine, a hundred baths of olive oil, and salt without limit.
23A o ka mea a pau i kauohaia e ke Akua o ka lani, e hana koke ia ia mea no ka hale o ke Akua o ka lani: no ka mea, no ke aha la e kauia mai ai ka inaina maluna o ke aupuni o ke alii, a me kana poe keiki?
23Whatever is commanded by the God of heaven must be done diligently for His house. For why should wrath fall on the realm of the king and his sons?
24Ke hoike aku nei no hoi makou ia oukou, no na kahuna a pau, a no na Levi, no ka poe mele, no na kiaipuka, no ka poe Netini, a me ka poe lawelawe ma keia hale o ke Akua, aole he pono ke auhau ia lakou i ka uku, a me ka hookupu, a me ke dute.
24And be advised that you have no authority to impose tribute, duty, or toll on any of the priests, Levites, singers, doorkeepers, temple servants, or other servants of this house of God.
25A o oe, e Ezera, ma ka naauao o kou Akua, ka mea ma kou lima, e hoonoho i na luna, a i na lunakanawai, na mea e hooponopono i na kanaka a pau ma kela aoao o ka muliwai, i ua mea a pau i ike i na kanawai o kou Akua, a e ao aku i ka poe ike ole.
25And you, Ezra, according to the wisdom of your God which you possess, are to appoint magistrates and judges to judge all the people west of the Euphrates—all who know the laws of your God. And you are to teach these laws to anyone who does not know them.
26A o ka mea malama ole i ke kanawai o kou Akua, a me ke kanawai o ke alii, e hoopai koke ia'ku oia, ina no ka make, a no ke kipakuia ana, a no ka hao ana o ka waiwai, a no ka hoopaa iloko o ka halepaahao.
26If anyone does not keep the law of your God and the law of the king, let a strict judgment be executed against him, whether death, banishment, confiscation of property, or imprisonment.
27E hoomaikaiia o Iehova ke Akua o ko kakou poe kupuna, nana i haawi keia manao iloko o ka naau o ke alii, e hoonani i ka hale o Iehova ma Ierusalema;
27Blessed be the LORD, the God of our fathers, who has put into the heart of the king to so honor the house of the LORD in Jerusalem,
28A i lokomaikai hoi ia'u imua o ke alii, a me kona poe kakaolelo, a me na luna nui o ke alii. A ua hooikaikaia au ma ka lima o Iehova ko'u Akua maluna o'u; a hoakoakoa ae la au i na luna o ka Iseraela, e pii pu me au.
28and who has shown me favor before the king, his counselors, and all his powerful officials. And because the hand of the LORD my God was upon me, I took courage and gathered the leaders of Israel to return with me.
