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:
В лето первое Кира царя Персскаго, да исполнится слово Господне от уст Иеремииных, воздвиже Господь дух Кира царя Персскаго, и повеле проповедати во всем царствии своем, и писаньми, глаголя:
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].
сия глаголет Кир царь Персский: вся царства земная даде мне Господь Бог небесный, и Той повеле ми, да созижду Ему дом во Иерусалиме, иже во Иудеи:
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].
кто в вас от всех людий Его? И будет Бог его с ним, и да взыдет во Иерусалим, иже во Иудеи, и да созиждет дом Богу Израилеву, Той есть Бог, Иже во Иерусалиме:
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.'”
и всяк оставшийся от всех мест, идеже той обитает, и да помогут ему мужие от места его сребром и златом, и сосуды и скоты, с добровольными обещании (принесут) в церковь Божию, яже во Иерусалиме.
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.
И восташа князи отечеств Иудиных и Вениаминих и священницы и левити, и вси, имже воздвиже Бог дух их, да взыдут созиданию церкве Господни, яже во Иерусалиме:
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].
и вси, иже бяху окрест, помогоша рукам их сосуды сребрбяными, златом, потребными, и скотами, и драгими вещми, кроме добровольных.
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].
И царь Кир изнесе сосуды церкве Господни, ихже взя Навуходоносор из Иерусалима и положи тыя в церкви бога своего:
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.
изнесе же тыя Кир царь Персский рукою Мифридата Гасваринова, и сочте тыя Сасавассару князю Иудейску.
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)
И сие число их: умывалниц златых тридесять, умывалниц же сребряных тысяща, ножей двадесять девять,
10 30 gold bowls 410 silver bowls 1,000 other items.
и чаш златых тридесять, и сребряных двойных четыреста десять, и сосудов иных тысяща:
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.
всех сосудов златых и сребряных пять тысящ и четыреста, вся взя с собою Сасавассар от преселения Вавилонскаго во Иерусалим.
