1 Persia lengpa Cyrus vaipoh kum masapen chun Pakaiyin Jeremiah komma anaphondoh thuchu ana guilhunsah tan ahi. Pakaiyin Cyrus lungthim ana suthouvin alenggam pumpia thuphon khat simphong dingin anathot doh tan ahi.
Now in the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, that the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias might be fulfilled, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of the Persians, and he issued a proclamation through all his kingdom, and that in writing, saying,
2 “Persia lengpa Cyrus thupeh chu hiche hi ahi, Pakai van Pathen in leiset chunga leng gam jousehi keima eipe tan ahi. Aman Judah gamsunga Jerusalem ah ama dinga Houin khat tungdoh dingin eingansen ahi.
Thus said Cyrus king of the Persians, The Lord God of heaven has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, and he has given me a charge to build him a house in Jerusalem that is in Judea.
3 Mi koihileh ama mite ho jouse chu Jerusalem’a nache theiyu ahitai, Nangho Jerusalem’a nacheova Pakai Israel Pathen Jerusalem minna nahoupao Pakai Houin chu nagasah phat diu ahi. Chule Pathen in naum piuhen!
Who [is] there amongst you of all his people? for his God shall be with him, and he shall go up to Jerusalem that is in Judea, and let him build the house of the God of Israel: he [is] the God that is in Jerusalem.
4 Amite ahingdoh tua hingnalai jouse chu hoikom munna khopem hijongleu, akhopem nao gam'a miten sana le dangka a ahin kitopi diu, thilto le gancha jong apehdiu, Jerusalem khopia Pathen Houin sahdoh teina dinga deichoma athilto diu kalvalla hijat pichu ahinpeh tha diu ahinalaiye,” ati.
And [let] every [Jew] that is left [go] from every place where he sojourns, and the men of his place shall help him with silver, and gold, and goods, and cattle, together with the voluntary offering for the house of God that is in Jerusalem.
5 Hijouchun Pathen in thempu hole Leviho lungsung ahin choh thouvin, Judah leh Benjamin phung lamkai ho Jerusalem a acheuva Pakai houin agasapha dingin asol tan ahi.
Then the chiefs of the families of Juda and Benjamin arose, and the priests, and the Levites, all whose spirit the Lord stirred up to go up to build the house of the Lord that [is] in Jerusalem.
6 Aheng akomhon apanhu na in sana le dangka, thil le lo chuleh gancha jong apeuvin chuleh akholjin naova acholam diuvin jong apeuvin ahi. Amahon acham chamma ahin phaldoh’u chung chon in thil manlu tah tahjong tamtah apeuvin ahi.
And all that were round about strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with cattle, and with presents, besides the voluntary offerings.
7 Lengpa Nebuchadnezzar in Jerusalem houin na anakoi khontheng hojong chu Cyrus lengpan amaho pathen houin a kon in ahin ladohtan ahi.
And king Cyrus brought out the vessels of the house of the Lord, which Nabuchodonosor had brought from Jerusalem, and put in the house of his god.
8 Cyrus in Persia sumchingpa Mithredath chu hiche thilho jouse chu asimtoh a Judah gamma kilekit ho lamkai pa Sheshbazzar khutna apehlut tan ahi.
And Cyrus king of the Persians brought them out by the hand of Mithradates the treasurer, and he numbered them to Sasabasar, the chief man of Juda.
9 Noija hohi hichea thil kilepeh hochu ahi: - Sana a kisem kisilna kongho - somthum, dangka a kisem kisilna kong-sangkhat, gimnamtui lhutna lheng- somni le ko
And this [is] their number: thirty gold basins, and a thousand silver basins, nine and twenty changes, thirty golden goblets,
10 Sana khon-somthum, chuleh dangka kisem khon-jali le somkhat, chuleh adang dang-sangkhat ho chu ahi.
and four hundred [and] ten double silver [vessels], and a thousand other vessels.
11 Hicheng chu abonchan sang nga le jail alhing in ahi, sohchang mite Babylon gamma konna Jerusalem geija ahintol tou chun Sheshbazzar kitipan thilkeo hijatpi hi ahintol tha tan ahi.
All the gold and silver vessels were five thousand and four hundred, [even] all that went up with Sasabasar from the [place of] transportation, from Babylon to Jerusalem.
