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,
Para que se cumpliera la profecía del Señor dada a través de Jeremías, el Señor animó a Ciro, rey de Persia, a emitir una proclama en todo su reino y también a ponerla por escrito, diciendo:
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 an house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
“Esto es lo que dice Ciro, rey de Persia: ‘El Señor, el Dios de los cielos, que me ha dado todos los reinos de la tierra, me ha dado la responsabilidad de construirle un Templo en Jerusalén, en Judá.
3 Whosoever there is among you of all his people, 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.
Cualquiera de ustedes que pertenezca a su pueblo puede ir a Jerusalén, en Judá, para reconstruir este Templo del Señor, el Dios de Israel, que vive en Jerusalén. Que su Dios esté con ustedes.
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.
Donde quiera que los sobrevivientes vivan actualmente, que sean ayudados por la gente de esa región con plata, oro, bienes y ganado, junto con una donación voluntaria para el Templo de Dios en Jerusalén’”.
5 Then rose up the heads of fathers’ [houses] of Judah and Benjamin, told 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 Dios animó a los jefes de familia de Judá y Benjamín, así como a los sacerdotes y a los levitas, a ir y reconstruir el Templo del Señor 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.
Todos sus vecinos les apoyaron con regalos de plata y oro, con bienes y ganado, y con otros objetos de valor, además de todas sus donaciones voluntarias.
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 también recuperó los objetos pertenecientes al Templo del Señor que Nabucodonosor había tomado de Jerusalén y colocado en el templo 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 hizo que Mitrídates, el tesorero, los recuperara, los contara y se los diera a Sesbasar, que era el líder de Judá.
9 And this is the number of them: thirty chargers of gold, a thousand chargers of silver, nine and twenty knives;
Esta era la lista: 30 cuencas de oro, 1.000 cuencas de plata, 29 cubiertos de plata,
10 thirty bowls of gold, silver bowls of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels a thousand.
30 cuencos de oro, 410 cuencos de plata a juego y otros 1.000 artículos.
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.
En total había 5.400 objetos de oro y plata. Cuando los exiliados salieron de Babilonia para ir a Jerusalén Sesbasar se llevó todo esto con ellos.
