< Ezra 1 >
1 In the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, to fulfill the word of the LORD spoken through Jeremiah, the LORD stirred the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia to send a proclamation throughout his kingdom and to put it in writing as follows:
Pea ko eni, ʻi he ʻuluaki taʻu ʻo Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, pea koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ʻi he ngutu ʻo Selemaia, naʻe ueʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae laumālie ʻo Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, pea naʻe fanongonongo ʻe ia ʻae fono ʻi hono puleʻanga kotoa pē, pea naʻe tohi ia foki, ʻo pehē,
2 “This is what Cyrus king of Persia says: ‘The LORD, the God of heaven, who has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, has appointed me to build a house for Him at Jerusalem in Judah.
ʻOku pehē ʻe Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, “Kuo tuku kiate au ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe langi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani: pea kuo fekau ʻe ia kiate au ke u langa ʻae fale moʻona ʻi Selūsalema, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Siuta.
3 Whoever among you belongs to His people, may his God be with him, and may he go to Jerusalem in Judah and build the house of the LORD, the God of Israel; He is the God who is in Jerusalem.
Ko hai ia ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi hono kakai kotoa pē? Ke ʻiate ia ʻa hono ʻOtua, pea ke ʻalu hake ia ki Selūsalema, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Siuta, pea ke langa ʻae fale kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, (ko ia ia ko e ʻOtua, ) ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Selūsalema.
4 And let every survivor, wherever he lives, be assisted by the men of that region with silver, gold, goods, and livestock, along with a freewill offering for the house of God in Jerusalem.’”
Pea mo ia fulipē ʻoku toe ʻi ha potu ʻaia ʻoku ʻāunofo ia ki ai, tuku ke tokoni ia ʻe he kau tangata ʻo hono potu ʻaki ʻae siliva, pea mo e koula, pea mo e ngaahi koloa pea mo e fanga manu, ko hono fakalahi ia ʻoe ngaahi meʻa ʻoku foaki loto lelei ki he fale ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoku ʻi Selūsalema.”
5 So the family heads of Judah and Benjamin, along with the priests and Levites—everyone whose spirit God had stirred—prepared to go up and rebuild the house of the LORD in Jerusalem.
Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ai ʻae kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he mātuʻa ʻo Siuta mo Penisimani, mo e kau taulaʻeiki, pea mo e kau Livai, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe fakaakeake honau laumālie ʻe he ʻOtua, ke ʻalu hake ke langa ʻae fale ʻo Sihova ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Selūsalema.
6 And all their neighbors supported them with articles of silver and gold, with goods and livestock, and with valuables, in addition to all their freewill offerings.
Pea naʻe fakamālohi honau nima ʻekinautolu kotoa pē naʻe nonofo fakataha mo kinautolu, ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ipu siliva, mo e koula, mo e ngaahi koloa, mo e fanga manu, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa maʻongoʻonga, ka ʻoku lau kehe ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē naʻe ʻatu loto ʻofa pe.
7 King Cyrus also brought out the articles belonging to the house of the LORD that Nebuchadnezzar had carried away from Jerusalem and placed in the temple of his gods.
Pea naʻe fetuku mai foki ʻe Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻae ngaahi ipu ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, ʻaia naʻe fetuku ʻe Nepukanesa mei Selūsalema, pea naʻa ne tuku ia ʻi he fale ʻo hono ngaahi ʻotua;
8 Cyrus king of Persia had them brought out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, who counted them out to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah.
ʻIo, naʻe ʻomi ia [kotoa pē ]ʻe Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia ʻi he nima ʻo Mitilitati ko e tauhi koloa, pea lau ia kia Sesipasa, ko e ʻeiki ʻo Siuta.
9 This was the inventory: 30 gold dishes, 1,000 silver dishes, 29 silver utensils,
Pea ko hono lau eni: ko e ipu lafalafa koula ʻe tolungofulu, mo e ipu lafalafa siliva ʻe taha afe, mo e hele ʻe uofulu ma hiva,
10 30 gold bowls, 410 matching silver bowls, and 1,000 other articles.
Ko e ipu luoluo koula ʻe tolungofulu, mo e ipu luoluo siliva ʻoe anga ʻe taha ko e fāngeau mo e hongofulu, pea ko e ngaahi ipu kehe ʻe taha afe.
11 In all, there were 5,400 gold and silver articles. Sheshbazzar brought all these along when the exiles went up from Babylon to Jerusalem.
Ko e ngaahi ipu koula mo e siliva kotoa pē ko e nima afe mo e nimangeau. Naʻe fetuku eni kotoa pē ʻe Sesipasa fakataha mo kinautolu ʻoe kau pōpula ʻaia naʻe ʻohake mei Papilone ki Selūsalema.
