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:
In the first year of Cyrus, king of Persia, to fulfil the word of Yahweh from the mouth of Jeremiah, Yahweh aroused the spirit of Cyrus, king of Persia, and he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, moreover also 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.
Thus, saith Cyrus, king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth, hath Yahweh God of the heavens, given to me, —and, he himself, hath laid charge upon me, to build for him a house, 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.
Who is there among you of all his people? His God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, —and build the house of Yahweh God of Israel, (he, is God!) which 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, whosoever is left, of all the places where he doth sojourn, let the men of his place uphold him, with silver and with gold, and with goods and with beasts, —along with a voluntary offering for the house of God, which is 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 arose the ancestral chiefs of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, —even every one whose spirit God had aroused, to go up to build the house of Yahweh, which was 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 they who were round about them, strengthened their hands, with utensils of silver, with gold with goods and with beasts, and with precious things, —besides any thing he had volunteered.
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, King Cyrus, brought forth the utensils of the house of Yahweh, —which Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth 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.
yea Cyrus king of Persia brought them forth, by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, —and numbered them unto Sheshbazzar, a leader 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, these, were the numbers of them, —basins of gold, thirty, basins of silver, a thousand, knives, twenty-nine;
10 bakunde mag dhahabu piero adek, bakunde machalre mag fedha mia angʼwen gapar, gik mamoko mitiyogo alufu achiel.
bowls of gold, thirty, bowls of silver, of a secondary sort, four hundred and ten, —other utensils, a thousand.
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.
All the utensils, in gold and silver, were five thousand and four hundred, —the whole, did Sheshbazzar bring up with the upbringing of the exile, out of Babylon unto Jerusalem.
