Ezra 1
1 Now in the first year of Koresh king of Persia, that the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Koresh king of Persia, so 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 says Koresh king of Persia, 'The LORD, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he has commanded 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 Whoever there is among you of all his people, may his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of the LORD, the God of Israel (he is God), which 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 Whoever is left, in any place where he lives, let the men of his place help him with silver, with gold, with goods, and with animals, besides the freewill offering for God's house 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 the heads of ancestral houses of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, even all whose spirit God had stirred to go up rose 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 All those who were around them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with animals, and with precious things, besides 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 Koresh the king brought forth the vessels of the house of the LORD, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought out of Jerusalem, and had put 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, Koresh king of Persia brought out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them to 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 This is the number of them: thirty platters of gold, one thousand platters of silver, twenty-nine 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 one 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. Sheshbazzar brought all these up, when the captives were brought up from Babylon to 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.
