< Ezra 1 >

1 Iti umuna a tawen a panagturay ni Cyrus a kas ari iti Persia, tinungpal ni Yahweh ti saona a nagtaud iti ngiwat ni Jeremias, ken tinignayna ti espiritu ni Cyrus. Naiwaragawag ti sao ni Cyrus iti entero a pagarianna. Kastoy ti naisurat ken naisao:
Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the LORD’s word by Jeremiah’s mouth might be accomplished, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,
2 “Kinuna ni Cyrus nga ari ti Persia: Ni Yahweh a Dios ti Langit ti nangted kaniak kadagiti amin a pagarian iti daga ket dinutokannak a mangibangon iti balayna a maipaay kenkuana idiay Jerusalem iti Judea.
“Cyrus king of Persia says, ‘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.
3 Siasinoman kadakayo ti nagtaud kadagiti tattaona, ti Diosna koma ti makikadua kenkuana tapno makaapan isuna idiay Jerusalem a mangbangon iti balay ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel, nga isu ti Dios ti Jerusalem.
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.
4 Dagiti tattao iti sadinoman a paset iti pagarian a pagnanaedan dagiti nakalasat iti dayta a daga ket masapul a mangipaayda kadakuada iti pirak ken balitok, sanikua ken ay-ayup, ken maysa a sagut a maidatag iti balay ti Dios idiay Jerusalem.”Kasapulan a mangipaay
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, in addition to the free will offering for God’s house which is in Jerusalem.’”
5 Kalpasanna, nagrubuat dagiti pangulo kadagiti puli dagiti kapuonan ti Juda ken Benjamin, dagiti papadi ken dagiti Levita, ken dagiti amin a tinignay ti Dios ti espirituna a mapan mangbangon iti balayna.
Then the heads of fathers’ households of Judah and Benjamin, the priests and the Levites, all whose spirit God had stirred to go up, rose up to build the LORD’s house which is in Jerusalem.
6 Timmulong kadagiti trabahoda dagiti tattao iti aglawlawda babaen kadagiti pirak ken balitok a banbanag, sanikua, ay-ayup, ken napateg a banbanag ken naimpusoan a sagut.
All those who were around them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, with animals, and with precious things, in addition to all that was willingly offered.
7 Insubli pay ni Ari Cyrus dagiti banbanag nga innala idi ni Nebucadnesar a maus-usar iti balay ni Yahweh idiay Jerusalem ken inkabilna iti balay dagiti didiosna.
Also Cyrus the king brought out the vessels of the LORD’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought out of Jerusalem, and had put in the house of his gods;
8 Inyawat dagitoy ni Cyrus kenni Mitredat a tesorero a nangbilang kadagitoy para kenni Sesbasar a pangulo ti Judea.
even those, Cyrus king of Persia brought out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and counted them out to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah.
9 Daytoy ti bilang dagitoy: Tallopulo a balitok a palanggana, sangaribo a pirak a palanggana, duapulo ket siam a sabali pay a palanggana,
This is the number of them: thirty platters of gold, one thousand platters of silver, twenty-nine knives,
10 tallopulo a balitok a mallukong, 410 a babassit a mallukong a pirak ken sangaribo a dadduma pay a banbanag.
thirty bowls of gold, four hundred ten silver bowls of a second kind, and one thousand other vessels.
11 Agdagup amin iti 5, 400 a balitok ken pirak nga alikamen. Intugot amin dagitoy ni Sesbasar idi nagsubli idiay Jerusalem dagiti naipanaw a kas balud manipud Babilonia.
All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand four hundred. Sheshbazzar brought all these up when the captives were brought up from Babylon to Jerusalem.
