< Ezra 1 >

1 Torej v prvem letu perzijskega kralja Kira, da se je lahko izpolnila Gospodova beseda po Jeremijevih ustih, je Gospod razvnel duha perzijskega kralja Kira, da je naredil razglas po vsem svojem kraljestvu in ga položil tudi v pisanje, rekoč:
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,
2 »Tako govori perzijski kralj Kir: › Gospod, Bog nebes, mi je izročil vsa kraljestva zemlje in me zadolžil, da mu zgradim hišo v Jeruzalemu, ki je v Judeji.
"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.
3 Kdo je tam med vami izmed vsega njegovega ljudstva? Njegov Bog bo z njim in ta naj gre gor v Jeruzalem, ki je v Judeji in zgradi hišo Gospodu, Izraelovemu Bogu (on je Bog), ki je v Jeruzalemu.
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 Kdorkoli pa ostaja na kateremkoli kraju, kjer začasno biva, naj mu možje iz njegovega kraja pomagajo s srebrom, z zlatom, z dobrinami in z živalmi, poleg prostovoljnih daritev za Božjo hišo, ki je v Jeruzalemu.‹«
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.'"
5 Potem so vstali vodja očetov Juda in Benjamina, duhovniki in Lévijevci, z vsemi tistimi, ki jih je dvignil Božji duh, da gredo gor gradit Gospodovo hišo, ki je v Jeruzalemu.
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.
6 Vsi, ki so bili okoli njih, so svoje roke okrepili s posodami iz srebra, z zlatom, z dobrinami in z živalmi in z dragocenimi stvarmi, poleg vsega, kar so prostovoljno darovali.
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.
7 Tudi kralj Kir je prinesel posode iz Gospodove hiše, ki jih je Nebukadnezar prinesel iz Jeruzalema in jih postavil v hišo svojih bogov,
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;
8 celo tiste je perzijski kralj Kir prinesel naprej po roki zakladnika Mitridáta in jih odštel Judovemu princu Šešbacárju.
even those, Koresh king of Persia brought out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them to Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah.
9 To je njihovo število: trideset velikih pladnjev iz zlata, tisoč velikih pladnjev iz srebra, devetindvajset nožev,
This is the number of them: thirty platters of gold, one thousand platters of silver, twenty-nine knives,
10 trideset umivalnikov iz zlata, srebrnih umivalnikov druge vrste štiristo deset in tisoč drugih posod.
thirty bowls of gold, silver bowls of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels one thousand.
11 Vseh posod iz zlata in iz srebra je bilo pet tisoč štiristo. Vse te je Šešbacár prinesel gor s tistimi iz ujetništva, ki so bili iz Babilona privedeni gor v Jeruzalem.
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.
