Ezra 1
1 NOW IN the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying:
El año primero de Ciro, rey de Persia, para que se cumpliese la palabra de Yahvé, pronunciada por boca de Jeremías, Yahvé movió el espíritu de Ciro, rey de Persia, el cual mandó publicar de viva voz, y también por escrito, en todo su reino, el siguiente edicto:
2 'Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia: All the kingdoms of the earth hath the LORD, the God of heaven, given me; and He hath charged me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
“Así dice Ciro, rey de Persia: Yahvé, el Dios del cielo, me ha dado todos los reinos de la tierra, y me ha encargado de edificarle una Casa en Jerusalén, que está en Judá.
3 Whosoever there is among you of all His people — his God be with him — let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of the LORD, the God of Israel, He is the God who is in Jerusalem.
Todos los de entre vosotros que formen parte del pueblo de Él, sea su Dios con ellos y suban a Jerusalén, que está en Judá, y edifiquen la Casa de Yahvé, el Dios de Israel; el cual es el Dios que está en Jerusalén.
4 And whosoever is left, in any place where he sojourneth, let the men of his place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, beside the freewill-offering for the house of God which is in Jerusalem.'
Y en todo lugar donde habiten restos (de Judá) han de ser ayudados por los vecinos de su lugar con plata, oro, bienes, ganado y dones preciosos para la Casa de Dios, que está en Jerusalén.”
5 Then rose up the heads of fathers' houses of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, even all whose spirit God had stirred to go up to build the house of the LORD which is in Jerusalem.
Entonces se levantaron los jefes de las casas paternas de Judá y Benjamín, los sacerdotes y los levitas, con todos aquellos cuyo espíritu había movido Dios, y subieron para edificar la Casa de Yahvé, que está en Jerusalén.
6 And all they that were round about them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, beside all that was willingly offered.
Y todos sus vecinos les ayudaron con objetos de plata y oro, con bienes, ganado y dones preciosos, a más de todos los presentes voluntarios.
7 Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the house of the LORD, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth out of Jerusalem, and had put them in the house of his gods;
El rey Ciro hizo sacar los utensilios de la Casa de Yahvé que Nabucodonosor había llevado de Jerusalén y depositado en la casa de su dios.
8 even those did Cyrus king of Persia bring forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them unto Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah.
Ciro, rey de Persia, los hizo sacar por mano de Mitridates, tesorero, y después de hacer inventario de ellos los dio a Sesbasar, príncipe de Judá.
9 And this is the number of them: thirty basins of gold, a thousand basins of silver, nine and twenty knives;
He aquí el inventario de ellos: Treinta fuentes de oro, mil fuentes de plata, veinte y nueve cuchillos,
10 thirty bowls of gold, silver bowls of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels a thousand.
treinta copas de oro, cuatrocientas diez copas de plata de segundo orden, y mil otros utensilios.
11 All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand and four hundred. All these did Sheshbazzar bring up, when they of the captivity were brought up from Babylon unto Jerusalem.
Todos los objetos de oro y de plata eran cinco mil cuatrocientos. Sesbasar llevó todo esto consigo cuando los cautivos volvieron de Babilonia a Jerusalén.
