< 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,
Torej v prvem letu perzijskega kralja Kira, da se je lahko izpolnila Gospodova beseda po Jeremijevih ustih, je Gospod razvnel duha perzijskega kralja Kira, da je naredil razglas po vsem svojem kraljestvu in ga položil tudi v pisanje, rekoč:
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.
»Tako govori perzijski kralj Kir: › Gospod, Bog nebes, mi je izročil vsa kraljestva zemlje in me zadolžil, da mu zgradim hišo v Jeruzalemu, ki je v Judeji.
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.
Kdo je tam med vami izmed vsega njegovega ljudstva? Njegov Bog bo z njim in ta naj gre gor v Jeruzalem, ki je v Judeji in zgradi hišo Gospodu, Izraelovemu Bogu (on je Bog), ki je v Jeruzalemu.
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.
Kdorkoli pa ostaja na kateremkoli kraju, kjer začasno biva, naj mu možje iz njegovega kraja pomagajo s srebrom, z zlatom, z dobrinami in z živalmi, poleg prostovoljnih daritev za Božjo hišo, ki je v Jeruzalemu.‹«
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.
Potem so vstali vodja očetov Juda in Benjamina, duhovniki in Lévijevci, z vsemi tistimi, ki jih je dvignil Božji duh, da gredo gor gradit Gospodovo hišo, ki je v Jeruzalemu.
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.
Vsi, ki so bili okoli njih, so svoje roke okrepili s posodami iz srebra, z zlatom, z dobrinami in z živalmi in z dragocenimi stvarmi, poleg vsega, kar so prostovoljno darovali.
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;
Tudi kralj Kir je prinesel posode iz Gospodove hiše, ki jih je Nebukadnezar prinesel iz Jeruzalema in jih postavil v hišo svojih bogov,
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.
celo tiste je perzijski kralj Kir prinesel naprej po roki zakladnika Mitridáta in jih odštel Judovemu princu Šešbacárju.
9 And this is the number of them: there were thirty gold plates, a thousand silver plates, twenty-nine knives,
To je njihovo število: trideset velikih pladnjev iz zlata, tisoč velikih pladnjev iz srebra, devetindvajset nožev,
10 Thirty gold basins, four hundred and ten silver basins, and a thousand other vessels.
trideset umivalnikov iz zlata, srebrnih umivalnikov druge vrste štiristo deset in tisoč drugih posod.
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.
Vseh posod iz zlata in iz srebra je bilo pet tisoč štiristo. Vse te je Šešbacár prinesel gor s tistimi iz ujetništva, ki so bili iz Babilona privedeni gor v Jeruzalem.
