< Ezra 1 >
1 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of Jehovah by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, Jehovah 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,
Le Sirus ƒe fiaɖuɖu ɖe Persia dzi ƒe ƒe gbãtɔ me la, be yeawɔ Yehowa ƒe nya si Yeremia gblɔ dzi la, Yehowa ʋã Sirus, Persia fia ƒe dzi be wòaɖe gbeƒã le eƒe anyigba blibo la dzi, eye wòaŋlɔ gbeƒãɖeɖe sia ɖe agbalẽ me be:
2 Thus says Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth has Jehovah, the God of heaven, given me, and he has charged me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
Nu si Sirus, Persia fia gblɔe nye esi: “Yehowa, dziƒo ƒe Mawu, tsɔ anyigbadzidukɔwo katã dzi ɖuɖu de asi nam, eye wòtiam be matu gbedoxɔ na ye le Yerusalem, le Yuda.
3 Whoever there is 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 Jehovah, the God of Israel (he is God), which is in Jerusalem.
Ame siwo nye Yehowa ƒe amewo, eye wole mia dome la, ate ŋu ayi Yerusalem le Yuda, eye woatu Yehowa, Israel ƒe Mawu, Mawu si le Yerusalem ƒe gbedoxɔ la. Woƒe Mawu nanɔ kpli wo.
4 And whoever is left, in any place where he sojourns, let the men of his place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, besides the freewill offering for the house of God which is in Jerusalem.
Mikpe ɖe ame siwo katã susɔ, afi ka ke wole o ŋu kple klosalo, sika, nunɔmesiwo, lãhawo kple lɔlɔ̃nununana hena Mawu ƒe gbedoxɔ la tutu le Yerusalem.”
5 Then the heads of fathers of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, even all whose spirit God had stirred, rose up to go up to build the house of Jehovah which is in Jerusalem.
Tete ƒometatɔ siwo le Yuda kple Benyamin, nunɔlawo kple Levitɔwo kple ame sia ame si ƒe dzi Mawu ʋã ko la, dzra ɖo be woayi Yerusalem aɖatu Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ la.
6 And all those who were round about them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, besides all that was willingly offered.
Woƒe aƒelikawo kpe ɖe wo ŋu kple klosalo kple sikanuwo, nunɔamesiwo, lãhawo kple nunana xɔasi bubuwo, hekpe ɖe lɔlɔ̃nununana bubuwo katã ŋu.
7 Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the house of Jehovah, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth out of Jerusalem, and had put in the house of his gods,
Gawu la, Fia Sirus ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔmenu siwo Nebukadnezar lɔ le Yerusalem dzoe, eye wòtsɔ wo da ɖe eƒe mawuxɔ me la ɖe go.
8 even those Cyrus king of Persia brought forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them to Sheshbazzar, the ruler of Judah.
Persia Fia Sirus na Mitreda, fiasãmenuwo dzikpɔla ɖe wo ɖe go, eye wòxlẽ wo de asi na Sesbazar, mɔmefia si nɔ Yuda dzi kpɔm.
9 And this is the number of them: thirty platters of gold, a thousand platters of silver, twenty-nine knives,
Nuawo ƒe xexlẽ me yi ale: Sikanuɖugba blaetɔ̃, Klosalonuɖugba akpe ɖeka, Klosalohɛ blaeve-vɔ-asiekɛ,
10 thirty bowls of gold, four hundred and ten silver bowls of a second sort, and a thousand other vessels.
Sikagagba blaetɔ̃, Klosalogagba alafa ene kple ewo, nu bubuwo akpe ɖeka.
11 All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand and four hundred. All these Sheshbazzar brought up when those of the captivity were brought up from Babylon to Jerusalem.
Sika kple klosalonuwo katã le akpe atɔ̃ alafa ene. Sesbazar lɔ nu siawo katã ɖe asi, esi aboyomeawo tso Babilonia va Yerusalem.
