< Ezra 1 >

1 NOW IN the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying:
ペルシヤ王クロスの元年に當りヱホバ曩にエレミヤの口によりて傳へたまひしその聖言を成んとてペルシヤ王クロスの心を感動したまひければ王すなはち宣命をつたへ詔書を出して徧く國中に告示して云く
2 'Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia: All the kingdoms of the earth hath the LORD, the God of heaven, given me; and He hath charged me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
ペルシヤ王クロスかく言ふ 天の神ヱホバ地上の諸國を我に賜へり その家をユダのヱルサレムに建ることを我に命ず
3 Whosoever there is among you of all His people — his God be with him — let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of the LORD, the God of Israel, He is the God who is in Jerusalem.
凡そ汝らの中もしその民たる者あらばその神の助を得てユダのヱルサレムに上りゆきヱルサレムなるイスラエルの神ヱホバの室を建ることをせよ 彼は神にましませり
4 And whosoever is left, in any place where he sojourneth, let the men of his place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, beside the freewill-offering for the house of God which is in Jerusalem.'
その民にして生存れる者等の寓りをる處の人々は之に金銀貨財家畜を予へて助くべし その外にまたヱルサレムなる神の室のために物を誠意よりささぐべしと
5 Then rose up the heads of fathers' houses of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, even all whose spirit God had stirred to go up to build the house of the LORD which is in Jerusalem.
是にユダとベニヤミンの宗家の長祭司レビ人など凡て神にその心を感動せられし者等ヱルサレムなるヱホバの室を建んとて起おこれり
6 And all they that were round about them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, beside all that was willingly offered.
その周圍の人々みな銀の器黄金貨財家畜および寳物を予へて之に力をそへこの外にまた各種の物を誠意より獻げたり
7 Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the house of the LORD, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth out of Jerusalem, and had put them in the house of his gods;
クロス王またネブカデネザルが前にヱルサレムより携へ出して己の神の室に納めたりしヱホバの室の器皿を取いだせり
8 even those did Cyrus king of Persia bring forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them unto Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah.
即ちペルシヤ王クロス庫官ミテレダテの手をもて之を取いだしてユダの牧伯セシバザルに數へ交付せり
9 And this is the number of them: thirty basins of gold, a thousand basins of silver, nine and twenty knives;
その數は是のごとし 金の盤三十 銀の盤一千 小刀二十九
10 thirty bowls of gold, silver bowls of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels a thousand.
金の大斝三十、二等の銀の大斝四百十 その他の器具一千
11 All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand and four hundred. All these did Sheshbazzar bring up, when they of the captivity were brought up from Babylon unto Jerusalem.
金銀の器皿は合せて五千四百ありしがセシバザル俘擄人等をバビロンよりヱルサレムに將て上りし時に之をことごとく携へ上れり
