< 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,
Pea ko eni, ʻi he ʻuluaki taʻu ʻo Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, pea koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ai ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova ʻi he ngutu ʻo Selemaia, naʻe ueʻi ʻe Sihova ʻae laumālie ʻo Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, pea naʻe fanongonongo ʻe ia ʻae fono ʻi hono puleʻanga kotoa pē, pea naʻe tohi ia foki, ʻo pehē,
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;
‌ʻOku pehē ʻe Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia, “Kuo tuku kiate au ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe langi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē ʻo māmani: pea kuo fekau ʻe ia kiate au ke u langa ʻae fale moʻona ʻi Selūsalema, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Siuta.
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.
Ko hai ia ʻiate kimoutolu ʻi hono kakai kotoa pē? Ke ʻiate ia ʻa hono ʻOtua, pea ke ʻalu hake ia ki Selūsalema, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Siuta, pea ke langa ʻae fale kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, (ko ia ia ko e ʻOtua, ) ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Selūsalema.
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.”
Pea mo ia fulipē ʻoku toe ʻi ha potu ʻaia ʻoku ʻāunofo ia ki ai, tuku ke tokoni ia ʻe he kau tangata ʻo hono potu ʻaki ʻae siliva, pea mo e koula, pea mo e ngaahi koloa pea mo e fanga manu, ko hono fakalahi ia ʻoe ngaahi meʻa ʻoku foaki loto lelei ki he fale ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoku ʻi Selūsalema.”
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;
Pea naʻe toki tuʻu hake ai ʻae kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he mātuʻa ʻo Siuta mo Penisimani, mo e kau taulaʻeiki, pea mo e kau Livai, pea mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe fakaakeake honau laumālie ʻe he ʻOtua, ke ʻalu hake ke langa ʻae fale ʻo Sihova ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Selūsalema.
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.
Pea naʻe fakamālohi honau nima ʻekinautolu kotoa pē naʻe nonofo fakataha mo kinautolu, ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ipu siliva, mo e koula, mo e ngaahi koloa, mo e fanga manu, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa maʻongoʻonga, ka ʻoku lau kehe ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē naʻe ʻatu loto ʻofa pe.
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;
Pea naʻe fetuku mai foki ʻe Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻae ngaahi ipu ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, ʻaia naʻe fetuku ʻe Nepukanesa mei Selūsalema, pea naʻa ne tuku ia ʻi he fale ʻo hono ngaahi ʻotua;
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.
‌ʻIo, naʻe ʻomi ia [kotoa pē ]ʻe Kolesi ko e tuʻi ʻo Peasia ʻi he nima ʻo Mitilitati ko e tauhi koloa, pea lau ia kia Sesipasa, ko e ʻeiki ʻo Siuta.
9 And this [is] their number: dishes of gold thirty, dishes of silver one thousand, knives twenty-nine,
Pea ko hono lau eni: ko e ipu lafalafa koula ʻe tolungofulu, mo e ipu lafalafa siliva ʻe taha afe, mo e hele ʻe uofulu ma hiva,
10 basins of gold thirty, basins of silver (seconds) four hundred and ten, other vessels one thousand.
Ko e ipu luoluo koula ʻe tolungofulu, mo e ipu luoluo siliva ʻoe anga ʻe taha ko e fāngeau mo e hongofulu, pea ko e ngaahi ipu kehe ʻe taha afe.
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.
Ko e ngaahi ipu koula mo e siliva kotoa pē ko e nima afe mo e nimangeau. Naʻe fetuku eni kotoa pē ʻe Sesipasa fakataha mo kinautolu ʻoe kau pōpula ʻaia naʻe ʻohake mei Papilone ki Selūsalema.
