< Ezra 1 >
1 In the first year of Cyrus, king of the Persians, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus, king of the Persians, so that the word of the Lord from the mouth of Jeremiah would be fulfilled. And he sent out a voice, throughout his entire kingdom, and also in writing, saying:
Na mobu ya liboso ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, Yawe alamusaki molimo ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, mpo na kokokisa liloba oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosakoli Jeremi, mpo ete asakola mpe akoma boye kati na mokili na ye mobimba:
2 “Thus says Cyrus, the king of the Persians: The Lord, the God of heaven, has given all the kingdoms of the earth to me, and he himself has instructed me that I should build a house for him in Jerusalem, which is in Judea.
« Tala makambo oyo Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, alobi: ‹ Yawe, Nzambe ya Likolo, apesi ngai babokonzi nyonso ya mabele mpe mokumba ya kotongela Ye Tempelo, na Yelusalemi kati na Yuda.
3 Who among you is from his entire people? May his God be with him. Let him ascend to Jerusalem, which is in Judea, and let him build the house of the Lord, the God of Israel. He is the God who is in Jerusalem.
Tika ete moto nyonso oyo, kati na bino, azali na molongo ya bato ya Yawe akende na Yelusalemi kati na Yuda mpo na kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, oyo azali Nzambe kati na Yelusalemi!
4 And let all who remain, in all the places wherever they may live, assist him, each man from his place, with silver and gold, and goods and cattle, in addition to whatever they may offer voluntarily to the temple of God, which is in Jerusalem.”
Tika ete bavandi ya bisika nyonso oyo bato ya Yuda bazali bapesa bango, mpo na Ndako ya Nzambe oyo ezali na Yelusalemi, makabo oyo: palata, wolo, bibwele, biloko ya ndenge na ndenge mpe makabo oyo bakati bango moko kopesa wuta na mokano ya mitema na bango. › »
5 And the leaders of the fathers from Judah and from Benjamin, with the priests, and the Levites, and all those whose spirit was stirred by God, rose up, so that they might ascend to build the temple of the Lord, which was in Jerusalem.
Bongo bakambi ya mabota ya Yuda mpe ya Benjame, Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi, elongo na moto nyonso oyo Nzambe atutaki motema babongamaki mpo na kokende kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe, na Yelusalemi.
6 And all those who were all around assisted their hands with vessels of silver and gold, with goods and cattle, with equipment, in addition to whatever they had offered freely.
Bato nyonso oyo bazalaki zingazinga na bango basungaki bango; bapesaki biloko esalema na palata mpe na wolo, bibwele, biloko ya ndenge na ndenge, bakado ya talo mpe makabo oyo bakataki bango moko kopesa wuta na mokano ya mitema na bango.
7 Likewise, king Cyrus offered the vessels of the temple of the Lord, which Nebuchadnezzar had taken from Jerusalem and had placed in the temple of his god.
Mokonzi Sirisi abimisaki biloko ya Tempelo ya Yawe, oyo Nabukodonozori amemaki wuta na Yelusalemi mpo na kotia yango kati na tempelo ya nzambe na ye.
8 Now Cyrus, king of Persia, offered these by the hand of Mithredath, the son of the treasurer, and he counted these out to Sheshbazzar, the leader of Judah.
Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, atindaki Mitredati, mobombi bozwi na ye, ete abimisa, atanga mpe apesa yango epai ya Sheshibatsari, moto ya libota ya bakambi ya Yuda.
9 And this is their number: thirty gold bowls, one thousand silver bowls, twenty-nine knives, thirty gold cups,
Tala biloko yango mpe motango na yango: bakopo ya wolo ezalaki tuku misato; bakopo ya palata ezalaki nkoto moko; basani ya mbele ya palata ezalaki tuku mibale na libwa;
10 four hundred ten of a second kind of silver cup, one thousand other vessels.
basani ya wolo ezalaki tuku misato; basani minene ya palata ezalaki nkama minei na zomi; biloko mosusu ezalaki nkoto moko.
11 All the vessels of gold and silver were five thousand four hundred. Sheshbazzar brought all these, with those who ascended from the transmigration of Babylon, into Jerusalem.
Motango ya biloko nyonso ya wolo mpe ya palata ezalaki nkoto mitano na nkama minei. Sheshibatsari amemaki biloko yango nyonso tango bato oyo bakendeki na bowumbu balongwaki na Babiloni mpo na kozonga na Yelusalemi.
