Ezra 1
1 During the first year that Cyrus ruled [the] Persian [Empire], he did something that fulfilled what Jeremiah had prophesied. Yahweh motivated Cyrus to write this message, and then Cyrus sent this message throughout his empire:
No primeiro anno de Cyro, rei da Persia (para que se cumprisse a palavra do Senhor, por bocca de Jeremias) despertou o Senhor o espirito de Cyro, rei da Persia o qual fez passar pregão por todo o seu reino, como tambem por escripto, dizendo:
2 “I, King Cyrus, who rule [the] Persian [Empire], declare this: 'Yahweh, the God [who is in/rules] from heaven, has caused me to become the ruler of all the kingdoms [that I know about] on the earth. And he has appointed me [to enable his people] to build a temple for him in Jerusalem, in Judah [land].
Assim diz Cyro, rei da Persia: O Senhor Deus dos céus me deu todos os reinos da terra: e elle me encarregou de lhe edificar uma casa em Jerusalem, que está em Judah.
3 All you people who belong to God may go up to Jerusalem to rebuild this temple for Yahweh, the God who lives in Jerusalem, the God [who is worshiped by you] Israeli people. I desire/hope that your God will be with you [and help those who go there].
Quem ha entre vós, de todo o seu povo, seja seu Deus com elle, e suba a Jerusalem, que está em Judah, e edifique a casa do Senhor, Deus d'Israel; elle é o Deus que habita em Jerusalem.
4 Those people who are in places where Israelis are living, whose ancestors were exiled here, should contribute silver and gold to those who go. They should also give them supplies [that they will need for the journey to Jerusalem]. They should also give them some livestock, and gifts of money to help build the temple of God in Jerusalem.'”
E todo aquelle que ficar atraz em alguns logares em que andar peregrinando, os homens do seu logar o ajudarão com prata, e com oiro, e com fazenda, e com gados, afóra das dadivas voluntarias para a casa do Senhor, que habita em Jerusalem.
5 Then God motivated some of the priests and (Levites/men who did work in the temple) and some of the leaders of the tribes that were descended from Judah and Benjamin to return to Jerusalem. Those whom God motivated got ready to return to Jerusalem and build the temple for Yahweh there.
Então se levantaram os chefes dos paes de Judah e Benjamin, e os sacerdotes e os levitas, com todos aquelles cujo espirito Deus despertou, para subirem a edificar a casa do Senhor, que está em Jerusalem.
6 All of their neighbors helped them by giving them things made of silver and things made of gold, and supplies for the journey, and livestock. They also gave them other valuable gifts, and also gave them money [to buy things for building the temple].
E todos os que habitavam nos arredores lhes confortaram as mãos com vasos de prata, com oiro, com fazenda, e com gados, e com as coisas preciosas: afóra tudo o que voluntariamente se deu.
7 King Cyrus brought out the valuable things that King Nebuchadnezzar’s [soldiers] had taken from the temple of Yahweh in Jerusalem and put in the temple of Nebuchadnezzar’s gods [in Babylon].
Tambem o rei Cyro tirou os vasos da casa do Senhor, que Nabucodonosor tinha trazido de Jerusalem, e que tinha posto na casa de seus deuses.
8 Cyrus commanded Mithredath, the treasurer of [the] Persian [Empire], to count all these items and then give them to Sheshbazzar, the leader of [the group that was going to return to] Judah.
Estes tirou Cyro, rei da Persia, pela mão de Mithredath, o thesoureiro, que os deu por conta a Sesbazar, principe de Judah.
9 This is a list of the items that Cyrus donated: 30 large gold dishes 1,000 large silver dishes 29 silver (censers/incense burning pans)
E este é o numero d'elles: trinta bacias d'oiro, mil bacias de prata, vinte e nove facas,
10 30 gold bowls 410 silver bowls 1,000 other items.
Trinta taças d'oiro, mais outras quatrocentas e dez taças de prata, e mil outros vasos.
11 All together, there were 5,400 items made of silver or gold, that [were given to] Sheshbazzar [to] take with him when he and the others returned to Jerusalem.
Todos os vasos d'oiro e de prata foram cinco mil e quatrocentos: todos estes levou Sesbazar, quando os do captiveiro subiram de Babylonia para Jerusalem.
