Ezra 5

¹Abaprofethi, uHagayi umprofethi, noZakariya, indodana ka-Ido, baprofetha ngenxa yabaJuda ababekwaJuda naseJerusalema egameni likaNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.

²Khona-ke uZerubabele indodana kaSheyalitiyeli noJeshuwa indodana kaJehoshadaki basukuma baqala ukwakha indlu kaNkulunkulu eseJerusalema, kanye nabaprofethi bakaNkulunkulu ababebasiza.

³Ngalesosikhathi uThathenayi umbusi osentshonalanga komfula, loSetharibhosnayi labangane babo beza kubo, bathi kubo: Ngubani oniyale ukwakha le ndlu, lakhe lolugange?

⁴Sasesisithi kubo: Angobani amagama amadoda akha lesi sakhiwo?

⁵Kodwa ilihlo likaNkulunkulu wabo laliphezu kwabadala bamaJuda, ukuthi kabazange bawayeke kuze kufike udaba kuDariyu; basebephendula ngencwadi ngaloludaba.

⁶Ikhophi yencwadi uThathenayi, umbusi wangasentshonalanga yoMfula, noShethari Bosnayi nabangane bakhe, ama-Afarizagi ayephesheya komfula, abayithumela kuDariyu inkosi:

⁷Basebemthumelela incwadi okwakulotshwe kuyo; Enkosini uDariyu, ukuthula konke!

⁸Makwazeke enkosini ukuthi singenile ezweni lakwaJuda, endlini kaNkulunkulu omkhulu, eyakhiwe ngamatshe amakhulu, nemithi ibekwe ezindongeni; lomsebenzi uqhutshwa masinyane, abaphumelelayo ezandleni zabo.

⁹Sase sibuza kulawo maxhegu, sathi kuwo: “Ngubani owaniyaleza ukuba nakhe le ndlu, nakhe lezi zindonga na?

¹⁰Sabuza futhi amagama abo ukuze sikuqinisekise, ukuze sibhale amagama amadoda ayeyizinhloko zawo.

¹¹Base besiphendula bathi: “Siyizinceku zikaNkulunkulu wezulu nomhlaba, sakha indlu eyakhiwa eminyakeni eminingi edlule, eyakhiwa yinkosi enkulu yakwa-Israyeli, yayakha.”

¹²Kodwa ngemva kokuba okhokho bethu bemthukuthelisile uNkulunkulu wezulu, wabanikela esandleni sikaNebukadinesari, inkosi yaseBhabhiloni, umKhaledi, owachitha le ndlu futhi wathumba abantu wabayisa eBhabhiloni.

¹³Kepha ngomnyaka wokuqala kaKoresi inkosi yaseBabele, uKoresi inkosi wakhipha umyalo wokuba kwakhiwe le ndlu kaNkulunkulu.

¹⁴Futhi izitsha zegolide nezesiliva zendlu kaNkulunkulu uNebukadinesari azikhipha ethempelini eliseJerusalema nasethempelini laseBhabhiloni, uKoresi inkosi wazithatha ethempelini laseBhabhiloni, zanikezwa ogama lakhe lalinguyise. USheshebazari, owamenza umbusi;

¹⁵Wathi kuye: “Thatha lezi zitsha, uhambe, uzilethe ethempelini eliseJerusalema, indlu kaNkulunkulu yakhiwe endaweni yayo.”

¹⁶Wayesefika yena loSheshibazari, wabeka isisekelo sendlu kaNkulunkulu eseJerusalema;

¹⁷Uma manje kukuhle enkosini, makuphenywe endlini yengcebo yenkosi elapho eBabele, ukuthi kuyicala yini elamiswa nguKoresi inkosi ukuba kwakhiwe le ndlu kaNkulunkulu eJerusalema, inkosi mayisithumele intokozo yayo kule ndaba.
