Ezra 1
1 Prve godine perzijskoga kralja Kira, da bi se ispunila riječ Jahvina objavljena na Jeremijina usta, nadahnu Jahve perzijskoga kralja Kira te on objavi po svemu svojem kraljevstvu, usmeno i pismeno:
And in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, at the completion of the word of YHWH from the mouth of Jeremiah, has YHWH awoken the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, and he causes an intimation to pass over into all his kingdom, and also in writing, saying,
2 “Ovako veli perzijski kralj Kir: 'Sva zemaljska kraljevstva dade mi Jahve, Bog nebeski. On mi naloži da mu sagradim Dom u Jeruzalemu, u Judeji.
“Thus said Cyrus king of Persia: YHWH, God of the heavens, has given all kingdoms of the earth to me, and He has laid a charge on me to build a house for Him in Jerusalem, that [is] in Judah;
3 Tko je god među vama od svega njegova naroda, Bog njegov bio s njim! Neka ide u Jeruzalem u Judeji i neka gradi Dom Jahvi, Bogu Izraelovu, Bogu koji stoluje u Jeruzalemu.
who [is] among you of all His people? His God is with him, and he goes up to Jerusalem, that [is] in Judah, and builds the house of YHWH, God of Israel (He [alone is] God), that [is] in Jerusalem.
4 I gdje god se još zadržao ostatak toga naroda, neka ga stanovništvo mjesta u kojima boravi podupre srebrom i zlatom, imanjem i stokom i dragovoljnim prinosima za Dom Božji u Jeruzalemu.'”
And everyone who is left, of any of the places where he [is] a sojourner, the men of his place assist him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, along with a free-will offering for the house of God, that [is] in Jerusalem.”
5 Tada ustadoše glavari obitelji Jude i Benjamina, svećenici i leviti, i svi kojima je Bog potaknuo duh i krenuše graditi Dom Jahvin u Jeruzalemu.
And heads of the fathers of Judah and Benjamin rise, and the priests and the Levites, even everyone whose spirit God has awoken, to go up to build the house of YHWH, that [is] in Jerusalem;
6 I svi su im susjedi pomagali: srebrom, zlatom, darovima u naravi, stokom, dragocjenostima mnogim, osim svega što su dragovoljno prilagali.
and all those around them have strengthened [them] with their hands, with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, apart from all that has been offered willingly.
7 Kralj Kir iznese posuđe Jahvina Doma koje Nabukodonozor bijaše odnio iz Jeruzalema i stavio u hram svoga boga.
And King Cyrus has brought out the vessels of the house of YHWH that Nebuchadnezzar has brought out of Jerusalem, and puts them in the house of his gods;
8 Kir, kralj perzijski, uruči ga Mitredatu, rizničaru, koji ga izbroji judejskom knezu Šešbasaru.
indeed, Cyrus king of Persia brings them out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbers them to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah.
9 Evo njegova popisa. Zlatnih zdjela: trideset; srebrnih zdjela: tisuću i dvadeset devet;
And this [is] their number: dishes of gold thirty, dishes of silver one thousand, knives twenty-nine,
10 zlatnih čaša: trideset; srebrnih čaša: četiri stotine i deset; ostalog posuđa: tisuću.
basins of gold thirty, basins of silver (seconds) four hundred and ten, other vessels one thousand.
11 Svega zlatnog i srebrnog posuđa: pet tisuća i četiri stotine. Sve je to odnio Šešbasar kada se sužnji vraćahu iz Babilona u Jeruzalem.
All the vessels of gold and of silver [are] five thousand and four hundred; the whole has Sheshbazzar brought up with the going up of the expulsion from Babylon to Jerusalem.
