Ezra 1
1 E higa mokwongo mar loch Sairas ruodh Pasia, mondo ochop singo mar wach Jehova Nyasaye mane Jeremia okoro, Jehova Nyasaye nowuoyo gi chuny Sairas ruodh Pasia mondo ogol lendo e pinye duto koketo e ndiko kama:
Now in the first year of Cyrus, king of Persia, in order that the word of the Lord given by the mouth of Jeremiah might come true, the spirit of Cyrus, king of Persia, was moved by the Lord, so that he made a public statement through all his kingdom, and put it in writing, saying,
2 Ma e gima Sairas ruodh Pasia wacho: “‘Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach polo, osemiya pinjeruodhi duto manie piny kendo oseyiera mondo agerne hekalu e Jerusalem manie piny Juda.
These are the words of Cyrus, king of Persia: The Lord God of heaven has given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he has made me responsible for building a house for him in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
3 Ngʼato angʼata kuom joge manie dieru, mad Nyasache bed kode, mondo odhi Jerusalem man Juda mi oger hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel, Nyasaye man Jerusalem.
Whoever there is among you of his people, may his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and take in hand the building of the house of the Lord, the God of Israel; he is the God who is in Jerusalem.
4 To ji moa kamoro amora ma joma otony nyalo bet ni koro odakie mondo ochiwne fedha gi dhahabu, kod gik miuso gi kweth mag dhok, to gi chiwo mar hera ne hekalu mar Nyasaye e Jerusalem.’”
And whoever there may be of the rest of Israel, living in any place, let the men of that place give him help with offerings of silver and gold and goods and beasts, in addition to the offering freely given for the house of God in Jerusalem.
5 Eka jotend anywola mar Juda kod Benjamin, gi jodolo kod jo-Lawi, ngʼato angʼata ma Nyasaye nomulo chunye, noikore dhi kendo gero od Jehova Nyasaye man Jerusalem.
Then the heads of families of Judah and Benjamin, with the priests and the Levites, got ready, even all those whose spirits were moved by God to go up and take in hand the building of the Lord's house in Jerusalem.
6 Jobathgi duto noyworogi gi gige fedha kod dhahabu, kod gik miuso gi kweth mag dhok, kod mich ma nengone tek, kaachiel gi chiwo mar hera.
And all their neighbours gave them help with offerings of vessels of silver and gold and goods and beasts and things of great value, in addition to what was freely offered.
7 Kata kamano, Ruoth Sairas nochiwo gigo mane mag hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, mane Nebukadneza oyudo osegolo Jerusalem mi otero e hekalu mar nyasache.
And Cyrus the king got out the vessels of the house of the Lord which Nebuchadnezzar had taken from Jerusalem and put in the house of his gods;
8 Sairas ruodh Pasia nowacho ni okelgi gi jakeno, Mithredath, mane okwanogi ne Sheshbaza jatend Juda.
Even these Cyrus made Mithredath, the keeper of his wealth, get out, and he gave them, after numbering them, to Sheshbazzar, the ruler of Judah.
9 Ma e kwan gik mane ochiw: Dise mag dhahabu piero adek, dise mag fedha alufu achiel, kareche mag fedha piero ariyo gochiko,
And this is the number of them: there were thirty gold plates, a thousand silver plates, twenty-nine knives,
10 bakunde mag dhahabu piero adek, bakunde machalre mag fedha mia angʼwen gapar, gik mamoko mitiyogo alufu achiel.
Thirty gold basins, four hundred and ten silver basins, and a thousand other vessels.
11 Gigo duto mane itiyogo mane olosi gi dhahabu kod fedha noromo alufu abich kod mia angʼwen. Sheshbaza nobiro gi gigi duto e kinde mane joma ne otwe noa Babulon kadhi Jerusalem.
There were five thousand, four hundred gold and silver vessels. All these were taken back by Sheshbazzar, when those who had been taken prisoner went up from Babylon to Jerusalem.
