Ezra 1
1 And in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, at the completion of the word of YHWH from the mouth of Jeremiah, has YHWH awoken the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, and he causes an intimation to pass over into all his kingdom, and also in writing, saying,
Na rĩrĩ, mwaka-inĩ wa mbere wa Kurusu mũthamaki wa Perisia, nĩguo kiugo kĩa Jehova kĩrĩa kĩarĩtio nĩ Jeremia kĩhiinge-rĩ, Jehova akĩarahũra ngoro ya Kurusu mũthamaki wa Perisia aanĩrĩrithie kũrĩa guothe aathamakaga, na andĩke atĩrĩ:
2 “Thus said Cyrus king of Persia: YHWH, God of the heavens, has given all kingdoms of the earth to me, and He has laid a charge on me to build a house for Him in Jerusalem, that [is] in Judah;
“Kurusu, mũthamaki wa Perisia ekuuga ũũ: “‘Jehova, Ngai wa igũrũ, nĩaheete mothamaki mothe ma thĩ, na nĩanyamũrĩte ndĩmwakĩre hekarũ kũu Jerusalemu bũrũri wa Juda.
3 who [is] among you of all His people? His God is with him, and he goes up to Jerusalem, that [is] in Judah, and builds the house of YHWH, God of Israel (He [alone is] God), that [is] in Jerusalem.
Mũndũ wake o na ũrĩkũ ũrĩ thĩinĩ wanyu, Ngai wake aroikara hamwe nake, nĩambate athiĩ Jerusalemu kũu Juda, na aake hekarũ ya Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, o we Ngai ũcio ũrĩ kũu Jerusalemu.
4 And everyone who is left, of any of the places where he [is] a sojourner, the men of his place assist him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, along with a free-will offering for the house of God, that [is] in Jerusalem.”
Na rĩrĩ, andũ a kũndũ o guothe kũrĩa matigari mangĩkorwo marĩ, nĩ mamũhe betha na thahabu, na indo na mahiũ, na mĩhothi ya kwĩyendera nĩ ũndũ wa hekarũ ya Ngai ĩrĩa ĩrĩ kũu Jerusalemu.’”
5 And heads of the fathers of Judah and Benjamin rise, and the priests and the Levites, even everyone whose spirit God has awoken, to go up to build the house of YHWH, that [is] in Jerusalem;
Hĩndĩ ĩyo atongoria a nyũmba ya Juda na ya Benjamini, na athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii, arĩa othe Ngai aarahũrire ngoro ciao, makĩĩhaarĩria gũthiĩ magaake nyũmba ya Jehova kũu Jerusalemu.
6 and all those around them have strengthened [them] with their hands, with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, apart from all that has been offered willingly.
Andũ othe a matũũra mao makĩmateithĩrĩria na indo cia betha na cia thahabu, na indo ingĩ na mahiũ, na iheo cia goro, makĩria ya mĩhothi ĩrĩa yarutĩtwo ya kwĩyendera.
7 And King Cyrus has brought out the vessels of the house of YHWH that Nebuchadnezzar has brought out of Jerusalem, and puts them in the house of his gods;
Ningĩ Mũthamaki Kurusu akĩruta indo iria ciarĩ cia hekarũ ya Jehova, iria ciatahĩtwo nĩ Nebukadinezaru kuuma Jerusalemu ikaigwo thĩinĩ wa hekarũ ya ngai yake.
8 indeed, Cyrus king of Persia brings them out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbers them to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah.
Kurusu mũthamaki wa Perisia nĩatũmire Mithiredathu ũrĩa mũigi wa kĩgĩĩna arehe indo icio, agĩcitarĩra Sheshibazaru mũnene wa Juda.
9 And this [is] their number: dishes of gold thirty, dishes of silver one thousand, knives twenty-nine,
Indo icio ciatariĩ ta ũũ: thaani nene cia thahabu ciarĩ 30 thaani nene cia betha ciarĩ 1,000 ngĩo cia betha ciarĩ 29
10 basins of gold thirty, basins of silver (seconds) four hundred and ten, other vessels one thousand.
mbakũri cia thahabu ciarĩ 30 mbakũri ihaanaine cia betha ciarĩ 410 na indo ingĩ ciarĩ 1,000.
11 All the vessels of gold and of silver [are] five thousand and four hundred; the whole has Sheshbazzar brought up with the going up of the expulsion from Babylon to Jerusalem.
Indo icio ciothe cia thahabu na betha ciarĩ 5,400. Sheshibazaru akĩrehe indo icio ciothe hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ arĩa maatahĩtwo maacookaga Jerusalemu kuuma Babuloni.
