< 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:
Ary tamin’ ny taona voalohany nanjakan’ i Kyrosy, mpanjakan’ i Persia, dia notairin’ i Jehovah ny fanahin’ i Kyrosy, mpanjakan’ i Persia, mba hanatanteraka ny tenin’ i Jehovah izay nampilazainy an’ i Jeremia, ka dia nandefa teny eran’ ny fanjakany rehetra izy, sady nataony an-tsoratra koa izany hoe:
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.
Izao no lazain’ i Kyrosy, mpanjakan’ i Persia: Ny fanjakana rehetra ambonin’ ny tany dia efa nomen’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny lanitra, ahy; ary Izy efa nandidy ahy hanao trano ho Azy any Jerosalema izay any Joda.
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.
Koa iza avy moa aminareo rehetra no olony? Andriamaniny anie homba azy, fa aoka hiakatra any Jerosalema izay any Joda izy ka hanao ny tranon’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, Izy no Andriamanitra Izay any Jerosalema.
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.'
Ary na iza na iza sisa tratra, dia aoka ny tompon-tany ao amin’ izay ivahiniany hanome azy volafotsy sy volamena sy fanaka ary biby fiompy mbamin’ ny fanati-tsitrapo ho an’ ny tranon’ Andriamanitra, izay any Jerosalema.
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.
Dia niainga ny lohan’ ny firenen’ i Joda sy Benjamina sy ny mpisorona sy ny Levita, dia izay rehetra efa namporisihin’ Andriamanitra hiakatra hanao ny tranon’ i Jehovah any Jerosalema.
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.
Ary izay rehetra manodidina dia nampahery ny tànan’ ireo tamin’ ny fanaka volafotsy sy volamena sy fanaka hafa sy biby fiompy ary zava-tsoa mbamin’ izay rehetra nateriny tamin’ ny sitrapo.
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;
Dia navoak’ i Kyrosy mpanjaka ny fanaky ny tranon’ i Jehovah, izay efa nalain’ i Nebokadnezara tany Jerosalema ka efa nataony tao an-tranon’ ireo andriamaniny.
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.
Ary Mitredata, mpitahiry ny haren’ ny fanjakana, dia nasain’ i Kyrosy, mpanjakan’ i Persia; namoaka ireny, ka nisainy sady natolony an’ i Sesbazara, lehiben’ ny firenen’ i Joda.
9 And this is the number of them: thirty basins of gold, a thousand basins of silver, nine and twenty knives;
Ary izao no isany: Lovia volamena telo-polo, lovia volafotsy arivo, antsy sivy amby roa-polo,
10 thirty bowls of gold, silver bowls of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels a thousand.
kapoaka volamena misarona telo-polo, lovia volafotsy manarakaraka folo amby efa-jato, ary lovia hafa koa arivo;
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.
efa-jato amby dimy arivo no isan’ ny fanaka volamena sy volafotsy rehetra. Ireo rehetra ireo dia nentin’ i Sesbazara niaraka nankany Jerosalema tamin’ ny babo izay niverina avy tany Babylona.
