< 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,
Alò, nan premye ane Cyrus, wa a Perse la, pou pawòl SENYÈ a te kab akonpli pa bouch a Jérémie, SENYÈ a te vire lespri a Cyrus, wa Perse la, pou l te voye yon pwoklamasyon toupatou nan wayòm li an, e anplis pou l ta ekri li pou te di:
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;
“Konsa pale Cyrus, wa a Perse la, ‘SENYÈ a, Bondye Syèl la, te ban mwen tout wayòm yo sou latè epi Li te chwazi mwen pou bati yon kay pou Li Jérusalem, ki nan 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.
Nenpòt moun ki pami nou nan tout pèp li a, ke Bondye pa li a kapab avèk li! Lese l monte Jérusalem ki nan Juda pou rebati lakay SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la (Se Li ki Bondye), ki nan Jérusalem nan.
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.”
Nenpòt nan yo ki toujou vivan, nenpòt kote ke li ta rete, kite moun nan plas sa yo bay li soutyen avèk ajan avèk lò, avèk byen ak bèt, ansanm avèk yon ofrann bòn volonte pou lakay Bondye ki Jérusalem nan.’”
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;
Epi chèf lakay papa zansèt pa yo nan Juda avèk Benjamin, e prèt avèk Levit yo te leve, menm tout sila ki te gen lespri vire pa Bondye yo, pou monte rebati lakay SENYÈ a ki Jérusalem nan.
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.
Tout sila ki te antoure yo te ankouraje yo avèk bagay an ajan, lò, byen pa yo, bèt yo, bagay yo koute chè pa yo, apati de tout sa ki te bay kon ofrann bòn volonte.
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;
Anplis, Wa Cyrus te mennen fè sòti tout bagay ki te pou lakay SENYÈ a ke Nebucadnetsar te mennen fè sòti Jérusalem pou mete lakay dye a li menm yo;
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.
menm sa yo Cyrus, wa Perse la, te fè sòti pa men Mithredath, trezorye a e li menm, te konte yo pou Sheshbatsar, prens a Juda a.
9 And this [is] their number: dishes of gold thirty, dishes of silver one thousand, knives twenty-nine,
Men kontwòl yo: trant asyèt an lò, mil asyèt an ajan, vent-nèf kouto;
10 basins of gold thirty, basins of silver (seconds) four hundred and ten, other vessels one thousand.
trant bòl an lò, kat-san-dis bòl an ajan nan yon lòt kalite ak mil nan lòt atik.
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.
Tout bagay an lò avèk ajan yo te vin kontwole nan senk-mil-kat-san. Sheshbatsar te mennen yo tout monte avèk moun egzil ki te sòti Babylone yo pou rive Jérusalem.
