1Now these are the heads of their fathers’ households, and this is the genealogy of those who went up with me from Babylon, in the reign of Artaxerxes the king:
1Laj Esdras quixye: —Aßan aßin lix cßabaßeb li queßjolomin reheb li junjûnk cabal ut li tzßîbanbileb xcßabaß. Aßaneb li queßel Babilonia cuochben lâin saß eb li cutan nak laj Artajerjes cuan chokß rey.
2Of the sons of Phinehas, Gershom. Of the sons of Ithamar, Daniel. Of the sons of David, Hattush.
2Laj Gersón xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Finees; laj Daniel, xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Itamar; laj Hatús, xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj David ut li ralal xcßajol laj Secanías;
3Of the sons of Shecaniah, of the sons of Parosh, Zechariah; and with him were reckoned by genealogy of the males one hundred fifty.
3laj Zacarías xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Paros, aßan cuanqueb jun ciento riqßuin lajêb roxcßâl.
4Of the sons of Pahathmoab, Eliehoenai the son of Zerahiah; and with him two hundred males.
4Laj Elioenai, li ralal laj Zeraías xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Pahat-moab, aßan cuanqueb cuib ciento.
5Of the sons of Shecaniah, the son of Jahaziel; and with him three hundred males.
5Li ralal laj Jahaziel, xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Secanías, aßan cuanqueb oxib ciento.
6Of the sons of Adin, Ebed the son of Jonathan; and with him fifty males.
6Laj Ebed ralal laj Jonatán xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Adín, aßan cuanqueb lajêb roxcßâl.
7Of the sons of Elam, Jeshaiah the son of Athaliah; and with him seventy males.
7Laj Jesaías li ralal laj Atalías xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Elam, aßan cuanqueb lajêb xcâcßâl.
8Of the sons of Shephatiah, Zebadiah the son of Michael; and with him eighty males.
8Laj Zebadías li ralal laj Micael xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Sefatías, aßan cuanqueb câcßâl.
9Of the sons of Joab, Obadiah the son of Jehiel; and with him two hundred and eighteen males.
9Laj Obadías li ralal laj Jehiel, xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Joab, aßan cuanqueb cuib ciento riqßuin cuakxaklaju.
10Of the sons of Shelomith, the son of Josiphiah; and with him one hundred sixty males.
10Li ralal laj Josifías, xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Selomit, aßan cuanqueb jun ciento riqßuin oxcßâl.
11Of the sons of Bebai, Zechariah the son of Bebai; and with him twenty-eight males.
11Laj Zacarías li ralal laj Bebai, xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Bebai aßan cuanqueb cuakxakib xcaßcßâl.
12Of the sons of Azgad, Johanan the son of Hakkatan; and with him one hundred ten males.
12Laj Johanán li ralal laj Hacatán, xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Azgad, aßan cuanqueb jun ciento riqßuin lajêb.
13Of the sons of Adonikam, who were the last; and these are their names: Eliphelet, Jeuel, and Shemaiah; and with them sixty males.
13Laj Elifelet, laj Jeiel ut laj Semaías, aßaneb li ralal xcßajol laj Adonicam, li queßcuan mokon. Aßan cuanqueb oxcßâl.
14Of the sons of Bigvai, Uthai and Zabbud; and with them seventy males.
14Laj Utai ut laj Zabud xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Bigvai, aßan cuanqueb oxcßâl.
15I gathered them together to the river that runs to Ahava; and there we encamped three days: and I viewed the people, and the priests, and found there none of the sons of Levi.
15Aran kachßutub kib chire li nimaß Ahava. Xocana aran oxib cutan cuochbeneb li xeßchal chicuix. Quin-oc xsiqßuinquil laj levita saß xyânkeb ut mâ jun quintau.
16Then sent I for Eliezer, for Ariel, for Shemaiah, and for Elnathan, and for Jarib, and for Elnathan, and for Nathan, and for Zechariah, and for Meshullam, chief men; also for Joiarib, and for Elnathan, who were teachers.
16Joßcan nak quinbokeb laj Eliezer, laj Ariel, laj Semaías, laj Elnatán, laj Jarib, laj Elnatán jun chic, laj Natán, laj Zacarías ut laj Mesulam. Eb li cuînk aßin, aßaneb laj cßamol be. Ut quinbokeb ajcuiß laj Joiarib ut laj Elnatán. Aßaneb laj tzolonel.
17I sent them forth to Iddo the chief at the place Casiphia; and I told them what they should tell Iddo, and his brothers the Nethinim, at the place Casiphia, that they should bring to us ministers for the house of our God.
17Quintaklaheb riqßuin laj Iddo, li nataklan saß li naßajej Casifia. Quinye reheb cßaßru teßxye re laj Iddo ut reheb ajcuiß li rochben li nequeßcßanjelac saß li templo li cuan saß li naßajej Casifia. Quintaklaheb aran re nak teßxsicß ani teßxic chi cßanjelac saß lix templo li Kâcuaß.
18According to the good hand of our God on us they brought us a man of discretion, of the sons of Mahli, the son of Levi, the son of Israel; and Sherebiah, with his sons and his brothers, eighteen;
18Ut xban nak li Dios yô chi tenkßânc ke, queßxtau chak laj Serebías re tâxic chi cßanjelac. Aßan jun cuînk châbil xnaßleb xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Mahli laj levita. Queßchal rochben li ralal ut li ras. Cuakxaklajuheb chixjunileb.
19and Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brothers and their sons, twenty;
19Ut queßchal ajcuiß laj Hasabías rochben laj Jesaías xcomoneb li ralal xcßajol laj Merari. Queßchal rochben li ralal ut li ras. Junmayeb chixjunileb.
20and of the Nethinim, whom David and the princes had given for the service of the Levites, two hundred and twenty Nethinim: all of them were mentioned by name.
20Queßchal ajcuiß cuib ciento riqßuin junmay chi cßanjelac saß li templo. Aßaneb li ralal xcßajol li queßxakabâc junxil xban laj David ut xbaneb li nequeßtaklan re nak eb aßan teßcßanjelak saß li templo chixtenkßanquileb laj levita. Ut quitzßîbâc xcßabaßeb li junjûnk.
21Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek of him a straight way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.
21Aran chire li nimaß Ahava, lâin quinye reheb nak to-ayunîk ut takacubsi kib chiru li Kâcuaß. Takatzßâma chiru nak aßan tâtenkßânk ke ut tâilok ke re nak mâcßaß takacßul lâo, chi moco li kacocßal chi moco li cßaßru cuan ke nak yôko chi xic.
22For I was ashamed to ask of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way, because we had spoken to the king, saying, “The hand of our God is on all those who seek him, for good; but his power and his wrath is against all those who forsake him.”
22Quinxutânac xtzßâmanquil chiru li rey nak tixtaklaheb lix soldado ut lix carruaje chikacolbal chiruheb li xicß nequeßiloc ke nak yôko chi xic. Ac xinye re li rey chi joßcaßin: —Li Kâcuaß li kaDios cuan riqßuineb li ani nequeßqßuehoc xlokßal ut aßan tâtenkßânk reheb. Abanan najoskßoß saß xbêneb li ani natzßektânan re, chanquin.
23So we fasted and begged our God for this: and he was entreated of us.
23Joßcan nak co-ayunic ut katzßâma katenkßanquil chiru li Dios. Ut li Dios quirabi li katij.
24Then I set apart twelve of the chiefs of the priests, even Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers with them,
24Ut quinsicß ruheb cablaju laj tij. Aßaneb laj Serebías, ut laj Hasabías rochbeneb lajêb chic laj tij.
25and weighed to them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, even the offering for the house of our God, which the king, and his counselors, and his princes, and all Israel there present, had offered:
25Ut quinbis chiruheb li plata, li oro ut li secß li queßxqßue chokß xmayej re li Kâcuaß li kaDios li rey, ut eb laj qßuehol naßleb li rey, ut eb li nequeßcßanjelac chiru li rey, joßqueb ajcuiß laj Israel li cuanqueb aran.
26I weighed into their hand six hundred fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels one hundred talents; of gold one hundred talents;
26Aßan aßin xqßuial li quinbis ut quinkßaxtesi reheb: jun xcaßcßâl mil riqßuin câhib ciento riqßuin lajêb roxcßâl bis li plata, jun ciento li secß plata, ut oxib mil riqßuin oxib ciento bis li oro.
27and twenty bowls of gold, of one thousand darics; and two vessels of fine bright brass, precious as gold.
27Ut quinkßaxtesi ajcuiß reheb junmay li secß oro, cuaklaju libra râlal, ut cuib li châbil secß bronce jißbil chi us ut nalemtzßun, kßaxal terto xtzßak joß li oro.
28I said to them, “You are holy to Yahweh, and the vessels are holy; and the silver and the gold are a freewill offering to Yahweh, the God of your fathers.
28Ut quinye reheb: —Lâex kßaxtesinbilex saß rukß li Kâcuaß. Joßcan ajcuiß li secß aßin ut li plata ut li oro. Qui-ala saß xchßôleb li kaxeßtônil yucuaß xqßuebal chokß xmayejeb re li Kâcuaß Dios.
29Watch, and keep them, until you weigh them before the chiefs of the priests and the Levites, and the princes of the fathers’ households of Israel, at Jerusalem, in the rooms of the house of Yahweh.”
29Têril ut têxoc chi us re nak mâcßaß teßxcßul chalen toj têbis chiruheb li nequeßtaklan saß xbêneb laj judío ut chiruheb laj tij. Ut têbis chiruheb laj levita ut chiruheb li nequeßjolomin re li junjûnk cabal li cuanqueb Jerusalén. Têbis aran saß lix templo li Kâcuaß, chanquin reheb.
30So the priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver and the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem to the house of our God.
30Eb laj tij ut eb laj levita queßxcßul li plata ut li oro ut li secß li quibiseß chiruheb re teßxcßam Jerusalén saß lix templo li Kâcuaß li kaDios.
31Then we departed from the river Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go to Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was on us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy and the bandit by the way.
31Cablaju xbe li xbên po co-el aran cuan cuiß li nimaß Ahava ut côo Jerusalén. Li Kâcuaß cuan kiqßuin ut aßan quicoloc ke chiruheb li xicß nequeßiloc ke joßqueb ajcuiß chiruheb laj êlkß li cuanqueb saß li be li côo cuiß.
32We came to Jerusalem, and stayed there three days.
32Cocuulac Jerusalén ut aran cohilan oxib cutan.
33On the fourth day the silver and the gold and the vessels were weighed in the house of our God into the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest; and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas; and with them was Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of Binnui, the Levite;
33Ut saß xcâ li cutan kabis li oro, li plata ut li secß li kacßam saß rochoch li Dios ut kakßaxtesi re laj Meremot laj tij li ralal laj Urías. Rochben aßan cuan laj Eleazar ralal laj Finees, ut cuanqueb ajcuiß rochbeneb laj levita, laj Jozabad ralal laj Jesúa ut laj Noadías ralal laj Binúi.
34the whole by number and by weight: and all the weight was written at that time.
34Chiru ajcuiß li cutan aßan quibiseß ut qui-ajlâc ut quikßaxtesîc ajcuiß li queßxcßam. Ut quitzßîbâc retalil joß qßuial qui-el chixjunil.
35The children of the captivity, who had come out of exile, offered burnt offerings to the God of Israel, twelve bulls for all Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, and twelve male goats for a sin offering: all this was a burnt offering to Yahweh.
35Chirix aßan, chixjunileb li queßsukßi Jerusalén queßxmayeja li cßatbil xul chiru li Kâcuaß, lix Dioseb laj Israel. Queßxmayeja cablaju li toro reheb li cablaju xtêpaleb laj Israel. Queßxmayeja ajcuiß cuaklaju roßcßâl li têlom carner ut cuuklaju xcâcßâl li cocß carner ut queßxmayeja ajcuiß cablaju li têlom chibât re xpatzßbal xcuybal xmâqueb. Chixjunil aßin queßxcßat chiru li Kcuaß chokß xmayejeb.Ut queßxkßaxtesi li chakßrab li quixqßue li rey reheb li cuanqueb saß xcuanquil ut reheb ajcuiß li nequeßtaklan saß eb li tenamit li cuanqueb jun pacßal li nimaß Eufrates. Ut eb aßan queßxtenkßaheb li tenamit ut queßoquen ajcuiß chixyîbanquil lix templo li Dios.
36They delivered the king’s commissions to the king’s satraps, and to the governors beyond the River: and they furthered the people and God’s house.
36Ut queßxkßaxtesi li chakßrab li quixqßue li rey reheb li cuanqueb saß xcuanquil ut reheb ajcuiß li nequeßtaklan saß eb li tenamit li cuanqueb jun pacßal li nimaß Eufrates. Ut eb aßan queßxtenkßaheb li tenamit ut queßoquen ajcuiß chixyîbanquil lix templo li Dios.
