Ezra 2

1 King Nebuchadnezzar’s [soldiers] had captured many [Israeli] people and taken them to Babylonia. [Many years later, ] some Israeli people returned to Judah. Some returned to Jerusalem, and some returned to [other places in] Judah. They went to the towns where their ancestors had lived. This is a list of the groups who returned.

58 Altogether, there were 392 temple workers and descendants of Solomon’s servants who returned.

Jumlah keturunan para pembantu di rumah TUHAN dan para pembantu Raja Salomo yang pulang dari pembuangan sebanyak 392 orang.

59 There was another group who returned [to Judah] from Tel-Melah, Tel-Harsha, Kerub, Addan, and Immer [towns in Babylonia]. But they could not prove that they were descendants of [people who previously lived in] Israel.

Ada juga yang ikut pulang bersama-sama dengan orang buangan dari kota-kota Tel Mela, Tel Haran, Kerub, Adan, dan Ime. Jumlah mereka terhitung sebanyak 652 orang. Mereka termasuk keturunan Delaya, Tobia, dan Nekoda, tetapi mereka tidak bisa membuktikan bahwa leluhur mereka terhubung kepada salah satu suku Israel, karena nama-nama leluhur mereka tidak terdaftar dalam buku daftar keturunan suku Israel.

60 This group included 652 people who were descendants of Delaiah, Tobiah, and Nekoda.

61 Hobaiah’s clan, Hakkoz’s clan, and Barzillai’s clan also returned. Barzillai had married a woman who was a descendant of Barzillai from [the] Gilead [region], and he had taken for himself the name of his father-in-law’s clan.

Beberapa keluarga imam juga tidak diterima bergabung dalam kelompok imam, karena nama leluhur mereka tidak ada di dalam buku daftar itu, sehingga mereka dinyatakan tidak suci dan tidak layak untuk pelayanan keimaman di rumah TUHAN. Mereka adalah keluarga Habaya, Hakos, dan Barzilai. (Sebelum bernama Barzilai, dia menikah dengan anak perempuan Barzilai dari Gilead. Kemudian dia dipanggil dengan nama Barzilai, seperti nama mertuanya itu.)

62 The people in that group searched in the documents that had the names of the ancestors of all the clans, but these men’s names were not found. So they were not permitted do the work that priests did.

63 The governor told them that they would need to ask a priest to consult Yahweh by [(casting/throwing] the sacred lots/stones [that had been marked]), to determine if those men were truly Israelis. When the priests did that, [if the stones showed that those men were Israelis], they would be permitted to eat the shares of the sacrifices that were given to the priests.

Gubernur daerah Yehuda melarang mereka memakan makanan yang dipersembahkan kepada Allah, sebelum imam yang berwenang memakai Urim dan Tumim untuk meminta petunjuk Allah tentang mereka.

64 Altogether 42,360 Israeli people who returned to Judah.

Jumlah seluruh orang buangan yang pulang adalah 42.360 orang.

65 There were also 7,337 servants and 200 musicians, both men and women, who returned.

Pembantu mereka baik laki-laki maupun perempuan terhitung sebanyak 7.337 orang. Mereka juga mempunyai pembantu khusus sebanyak 200 orang penyanyi laki-laki dan perempuan.

66 The Israelis brought with them [from Babylonia] 736 horses, 245 mules,

Mereka membawa 736 ekor kuda, 245 bagal,

67 435 camels, and 6,720 donkeys.

435 ekor unta, dan 6.720 ekor keledai.

68 When they arrived at the temple of Yahweh in Jerusalem, some of the clan leaders gave money [for the supplies needed] to rebuild the temple at the place where the temple had been previously.

Sesampainya mereka di Yerusalem, tepatnya di lokasi bekas bangunan rumah TUHAN pernah berdiri, beberapa pemimpin keluarga memberikan persembahan secara sukarela untuk membangun kembali rumah itu.

69 They all gave as much money as they were able to give. Altogether they gave 61,000 gold coins, (6,250 pounds/3,000 kg.) of silver, and 100 robes for the priests.

Mereka memberi sumbangan menurut kemampuan masing-masing. Jumlah persembahan yang terkumpul adalah 61.000 kilogram emas, 5.000 kilogram perak, dan 100 baju panjang khusus untuk para imam. Semua ini dimasukkan ke dalam gedung penyimpanan untuk harta rumah TUHAN.

70 Then the priests, the [other] descendants of Levi, the musicians, the temple guards, and some of the [other] people started to live in the towns and villages [near Jerusalem]. The rest of the people went to the other places in Israel where their ancestors had lived.

Demikianlah para imam, orang-orang Lewi, sebagian dari rakyat biasa, juga para pemusik, penjaga pintu gerbang rumah TUHAN, dan para pembantu rumah TUHAN tinggal di kota-kota dekat Yerusalem, sedangkan rakyat Israel selebihnya kembali ke kota-kota asal nenek moyang mereka dahulu.
