< Ezra 1 >

1 And in the first year of Cyrus the king of Persia, at the time the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremiah was accomplished, the Lord awakened the spirit of Cyrus the king of Persia; and he caused a proclamation to be made throughout all his kingdom, and also by means of writing, saying,
In anno primo Cyri regis Persarum ut compleretur verbum Domini ex ore Ieremiæ, suscitavit Dominus spiritum Cyri regis Persarum: et traduxit vocem in omni regno suo, etiam per scripturam, dicens:
2 Thus hath said Cyrus the king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath the Lord the God of heaven given unto me; and he hath directed me to build for him a house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
Hæc dicit Cyrus rex Persarum: Omnia regna terræ dedit mihi Dominus Deus cæli, et ipse præcepit mihi ut ædificarem ei domum in Ierusalem, quæ est in Iudæa.
3 Whoever among you that is of all his people, may his God be with him, and 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.
Quis est in vobis de universo populo eius? Sit Deus illius cum ipso. Ascendat in Ierusalem, quæ est in Iudæa, et ædificet domum Domini Dei Israel, ipse est Deus qui est in Ierusalem.
4 And whosoever remaineth out of any place where he hath sojourned, him shall the men of his place assist with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, beside the freewill offering for the house of God which is in Jerusalem.
Et omnes reliqui in cunctis locis ubicumque habitant, adiuvent eum viri de loco suo argento et auro, et substantia, et pecoribus, excepto quod voluntarie offerunt templo Dei, quod est in Ierusalem.
5 Then rose up the chiefs of the divisions of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, with all those whose spirit God had awakened, to go up to build the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem.
Et surrexerunt principes patrum de Iuda, et Beniamin, et Sacerdotes, et Levitæ, et omnis, cuius Deus suscitavit spiritum, ut ascenderent ad ædificandum templum Domini, quod erat in Ierusalem.
6 And all those that were round about them supplied them with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, beside all that was willingly offered.
Universique qui erant in circuitu, adiuverunt manus eorum in vasis argenteis et aureis, in substantia et iumentis, in supellectili, exceptis his, quæ sponte obtulerant.
7 Also king Cyrus brought forth the vessels of the house of the Lord, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought away out of Jerusalem, and had placed in the house of his god:
Rex quoque Cyrus protulit vasa templi Domini, quæ tulerat Nabuchodonosor de Ierusalem, et posuerat ea in templo Dei sui.
8 Even these did Cyrus the king of Persia bring forth through the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and counted them out unto Sheshbazzar the prince for Judah.
Protulit autem ea Cyrus rex Persarum per manum Mithridatis filii Gazabar, et annumeravit ea Sassabasar principi Iuda.
9 And this is their number: Thirty chargers of gold, a thousand chargers of silver, nine and twenty knives,
Et hic est numerus eorum: Phialæ aureæ triginta, phialæ argenteæ mille, cultri vigintinovem, scyphi aurei triginta,
10 Thirty cups of gold, silver cups of a second degree four hundred and ten, other vessels a thousand.
scyphi argentei secundi quadringenti decem: vasa alia mille.
11 All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand and four hundred. All these did Sheshbazzar bring up with the exiles that were brought up from Babylon unto Jerusalem.
Omnia vasa aurea et argentea quinque millia quadringenta: universa tulit Sassabasar cum his, qui ascendebant de transmigratione Babylonis in Ierusalem.
