¹When the seventh month had come, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem.

¹Oo markii bishii toddobaad la gaadhay, oo ay reer binu Israa'iilna iska degganaayeen magaalooyinkoodii, ayaa dadkii oo dhammu ugu soo wada urureen Yeruusaalem sidii nin keliya.

²Then Jeshua the son of Jozadak stood up with his brothers the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and his brothers, and built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings thereon, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.

²Markaasaa waxaa istaagay Yeeshuuca oo ahaa ina Yoosaadaaq, iyo walaalihiisii wadaaddada ahaa, iyo Serubaabel oo ahaa ina Salaatii'eel, iyo walaalihiis, oo waxay dhiseen meeshii allabariga oo Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil inay ku dul bixiyaan qurbaanno la gubo, sida ay ugu qoran tahay sharcigii Muuse oo ahaa ninka Ilaah.

³In spite of their fear because of the peoples of the surrounding lands, they set the altar on its base; and they offered burnt offerings on it to Yahweh, even burnt offerings morning and evening.

³Oo meeshii allabariga waxay saareen saldhiggeedii, waayo, iyagu waxay ka cabsanayeen dadkii dalalka degganaa, oo waxay Rabbiga ugu dul bixiyeen qurbaanno la gubo oo ahaa kuwii subaxnimada iyo kuwii habeennimada.

⁴They kept the feast of tents, as it is written, and offered the daily burnt offerings by number, according to the ordinance, as the duty of every day required;

⁴Oo iiddii taambuugyadana waxay u iideen sidii ay u qornayd, oo maalin kastana waxay tiro ku bixinayeen qurbaannada la gubo, sidii amarku ahaa, iyo intii maalin kasta layska doonayay;

⁵and afterward the continual burnt offering, the offerings of the new moons, of all the set feasts of Yahweh that were consecrated, and of everyone who willingly offered a freewill offering to Yahweh.

⁵dabadeedna qurbaankii joogtada ahaa, iyo kuwii bilaha cusub, iyo iidihii Rabbiga oo quduuska ahaa, iyo kii qof waluba Rabbiga ikhtiyaarkiisa ugu bixiyey.

⁶From the first day of the seventh month, they began to offer burnt offerings to Yahweh; but the foundation of Yahweh’s temple was not yet laid.

⁶Oo maalintii kowaad oo bishii toddobaad ayay bilaabeen inay Rabbiga u bixiyaan qurbaanno la gubo, laakiinse macbudka aasaaskiisii weli lama dhigin.

⁷They also gave money to the masons, and to the carpenters. They also gave food, drink, and oil to the people of Sidon and Tyre, to bring cedar trees from Lebanon to the sea, to Joppa, according to the grant that they had from Cyrus King of Persia.

⁷Oo waxay wastaadyadii iyo nijaarradii siiyeen lacag; oo kuwii reer Siidoon iyo kuwii reer Turosna waxay siiyeen cunto, iyo cabniin, iyo saliid si ay geedaha kedarka la yidhaahdo Lubnaan uga keenaan oo ay badda u soo marsiiyaan ilaa Yaafaa, sidii uu Kuuros oo ahaa boqorkii Faaris ugu oggolaaday.

⁸Now in the second year of their coming to God’s house at Jerusalem, in the second month, Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the rest of their brothers the priests and the Levites, and all those who had come out of the captivity to Jerusalem, began the work and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to have the oversight of the work of Yahweh’s house.

⁸Haddaba markay yimaadeen guriga Ilaah oo Yeruusaalem ku yaal sannaddii labaad bisheedii labaad ayay Serubaabel oo ahaa ina Salaatii'eel, iyo Yeeshuuca oo ahaa ina Yoosaadaaq, shuqulkii bilaabeen, iyaga iyo intii kale oo ahayd wadaaddadii walaalahood ahaa, iyo kuwii reer Laawi, iyo kulli intii maxaabiista ka soo baxday oo Yeruusaalem timid, oo kuwii reer Laawi intii labaatan sannadood jirtay ama ka sii weyn ayay u doorteen inay shuqulkii guriga Rabbiga u sarreeyaan.

⁹Then Jeshua stood with his sons and his brothers, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, together, to have the oversight of the workmen in God’s house: the sons of Henadad, with their sons and their brothers the Levites.

⁹Markaasaa waxaa dhammaan istaagay Yeeshuuca, iyo wiilashiisii iyo walaalihiis, iyo Qadmii'eel iyo wiilashiisii oo ahaa reer Yahuudah, inay u sarreeyaan shaqaalaha ku jira guriga Rabbiga, iyo weliba wiilashii Xeenaadaad iyo wiilashoodii iyo walaalahood oo ahaa reer Laawi.

¹⁰When the builders laid the foundation of Yahweh’s temple, they set the priests in their clothing with trumpets, with the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise Yahweh, according to the directions of David king of Israel.

¹⁰Oo kuwii gurigii dhisayay markay aasaaskii macbudka Rabbiga dhigeen waxaa istaagay wadaaddadii iyagoo dharkoodii xidhan oo turumbooyin wata, iyo kuwii reer Laawi oo ahaa ilma Aasaaf oo haysta suxuun laysku garaaco, inay Rabbiga ammaanaan sidii uu ahaa amarkii Daa'uud oo ahaa boqorkii reer binu Israa'iil.

¹¹They sang to one another in praising and giving thanks to Yahweh, “For he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever toward Israel.” All the people shouted with a great shout, when they praised Yahweh, because the foundation of the house of Yahweh had been laid.

¹¹Oo markaasay darandoorri u gabyeen iyagoo Rabbiga ammaanaya oo u mahad naqaya, oo leh, Isagu wuu wanaagsan yahay, reer binu Israa'iilna weligiisba wuu u naxariistaa. Oo markay Rabbiga ammaaneen ayaa dadkii oo dhammu dhawaaq weyn ku dhawaaqay, maxaa yeelay, waxaa la dhigay aasaaskii gurigii Rabbiga.

¹²But many of the priests and Levites and heads of fathers’ households, the old men who had seen the first house, when the foundation of this house was laid before their eyes, wept with a loud voice. Many also shouted aloud for joy,

¹²Oo wadaaddadii badidood, iyo kuwii reer Laawi, iyo madaxdii qabiilooyinka oo ahaa odayaashii arkay gurigii hore ayaa aad u ooyay markay arkeen gurigan aasaaskiisii oo hortooda lagu dhigay, oo kuwo badanuna farxad bay la qayliyeen,oo sidaas daraaddeed dadkii wuu kala sooci kari waayay dhawaaqii farxadda iyo qayladii oohinta, oo buuqiina waxaa laga maqlay meel fog.

¹³so that the people could not discern the noise of the shout of joy from the noise of the weeping of the people; for the people shouted with a loud shout, and the noise was heard far away.

¹³oo sidaas daraaddeed dadkii wuu kala sooci kari waayay dhawaaqii farxadda iyo qayladii oohinta, oo buuqiina waxaa laga maqlay meel fog.
