< Ezra 1 >

1 And 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, and he made a proclamation throughout his kingdom, and 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 the heavens given to me, and he has charged me to build him a house at 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 Whosoever 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 at 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 whosoever remains 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 voluntary offering for the house of God which is at 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 And the chief fathers of Judah and Benjamin rose up, and the priests, and the Levites, even all those whose spirit God had stirred, to go up to build the house of Jehovah which is at 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 they that were about them strengthened their hands with articles 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 And king Cyrus 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 god.
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 And Cyrus king of Persia brought them forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, who counted them out to Sheshbazzar the prince 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 chargers of gold, a thousand chargers of silver, nine-and-twenty knives,
Nuawo ƒe xexlẽ me yi ale: Sikanuɖugba blaetɔ̃, Klosalonuɖugba akpe ɖeka, Klosalohɛ blaeve-vɔ-asiekɛ,
10 thirty basons of gold, silver basons of a second [sort] four hundred and ten, [and] other vessels a thousand.
Sikagagba blaetɔ̃, Klosalogagba alafa ene kple ewo, nu bubuwo akpe ɖeka.
11 All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand four hundred. The whole did Sheshbazzar bring up, when they 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.
