< Ezra 1 >
1 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah might be fulfilled, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and [put it] also in writing, saying,
Nʼafọ mbụ nke ọchịchị Sairọs, eze Peshịa, ime ka okwu Onyenwe anyị nke sitere nʼọnụ Jeremaya mezuo, Onyenwe anyị kpaliri mmụọ Sairọs, eze Peshịa ka o mee mkpọsa nʼalaeze ya niile, ma denyekwa ya nʼakwụkwọ iwu, sị,
2 Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, The LORD God of heaven hath given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he hath charged me to build him a house at Jerusalem, which [is] in Judah.
“Otu a ka Sairọs, eze Peshịa kwuru, “‘Onyenwe anyị Chineke nke eluigwe, e nyela m alaeze niile nke dị nʼụwa, o nyekwala m ọrụ iwuru ya ụlọnsọ na Jerusalem, nke dị na Juda.
3 Who [is there] among you of all his people? his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which [is] in Judah, and build the house of the LORD God of Israel, (he [is] the God, ) who [is] in Jerusalem.
Ya mere, onye ya ọbụla nʼetiti ndị ya nwere ike ịga Jerusalem nke dị na Juda, gaa wuo ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel, bụ Chineke nọ na Jerusalem. Ka Chineke ha nọnyekwara ha.
4 And whoever remaineth in any place where he sojourneth, let the men of his place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, besides the free-will-offering for the house of God that [is] in Jerusalem.
Ma nʼobodo ọbụla ebe ndị fọdụrụ ndụ bi, ka ndị nọ nʼebe ahụ nye ha onyinye ọlaọcha na ọlaedo, na akụ na anụ ụlọ nʼụzọ enyemaka, tinyere onyinye afọ ofufu maka ụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke nke dị na Jerusalem.’”
5 Then arose the chief of the fathers of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, with all [them] whose spirit God had raised, to go up to build the house of the LORD which [is] in Jerusalem.
Mgbe ahụ, Chineke tinyere ọchịchọ ịlaghachi Jerusalem nʼobi ndịisi ezinaụlọ Juda na Benjamin na ndị nchụaja, na ndị Livayị. Ha kwadokwara ịlaghachi maka ịrụ ọrụ ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị ahụ na-atụfughị oge.
6 And all they that [were] about them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, besides all [that] was willingly offered.
Ndị Juu bi na gburugburu Peshịa nyere ndị nke na-alaghachi Jerusalem onyinye ihe ọlaọcha na ọlaedo, na anụ ụlọ na ihe ndị ọzọ, na onyinye dị oke ọnụahịa dị iche iche, tinyere onyinye afọ ofufu ha.
7 Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the house of the LORD, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought from Jerusalem, and had put them in the house of his gods;
Nke ka nke, eze Sairọs chịpụtara ọtụtụ ngwongwo nke ụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị nke Nebukadneza sitere na Jerusalem bukọrọ gaa debe nʼụlọ chi ya.
8 Even those did Cyrus king of Persia bring forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them to Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah.
Sairọs bụ eze Peshịa, chịpụtara ha site nʼaka Mitredat, onye bụ odozi akụ, onye gụrụ ha ọnụ nye Sheshbaza, onye bụ onyeisi ndị Juu ahụ na-alaghachi Jerusalem na Juda.
9 And this [is] the number of them: thirty chargers of gold, a thousand chargers of silver, nine and twenty knives,
Nke a bụ ọnụọgụgụ ngwongwo ndị ahụ: efere ọlaedo iri atọ, efere ọlaọcha otu puku, efere ọlaọcha iri abụọ na itoolu,
10 Thirty basins of gold, silver basins of a second [sort] four hundred and ten, [and] other vessels a thousand.
efere nta ọlaedo iri atọ, efere ọlaọcha nta narị anọ na iri, ngwongwo ndị ọzọ otu puku.
11 All the vessels of gold and of silver [were] five thousand and four hundred. All [these] did Sheshbazzar bring with [them of] the captivity that were brought from Babylon to Jerusalem.
Nʼime ihe ndị a niile, ọnụọgụgụ ihe e ji ọlaọcha na ọlaedo kpụọ dị puku ise na narị anọ. Sheshbaza bulatara ihe ndị a mgbe ya na ndị ahụ a dọọrọ nʼagha hapụrụ Babilọn na-alọta Jerusalem.
