Ezra 1
1 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,
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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
Woƒe aƒelikawo kpe ɖe wo ŋu kple klosalo kple sikanuwo, nunɔamesiwo, lãhawo kple nunana xɔasi bubuwo, hekpe ɖe lɔlɔ̃nununana bubuwo katã ŋu.
7 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;
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 these Cyrus made Mithredath, the keeper of his wealth, get out, and he gave them, after numbering 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: there were thirty gold plates, a thousand silver plates, twenty-nine knives,
Nuawo ƒe xexlẽ me yi ale: Sikanuɖugba blaetɔ̃, Klosalonuɖugba akpe ɖeka, Klosalohɛ blaeve-vɔ-asiekɛ,
10 Thirty gold basins, four hundred and ten silver basins, and a thousand other vessels.
Sikagagba blaetɔ̃, Klosalogagba alafa ene kple ewo, nu bubuwo akpe ɖeka.
11 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.
Sika kple klosalonuwo katã le akpe atɔ̃ alafa ene. Sesbazar lɔ nu siawo katã ɖe asi, esi aboyomeawo tso Babilonia va Yerusalem.
