< Ezera 1 >
1 I KA makahiki akahi o Kuro ke alii o Peresia, i hookoia'i ka olelo a Iehova ma ka waha o Ieremia, hoala mai o Iehova i ka naau o Kuro ke alii o Peresia, a kukala aku ia ma kona aupuni a pau, a ma ka palapala hoi, i ka i ana'e,
In the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, to fulfill the word of the LORD spoken through Jeremiah, the LORD stirred the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia to send a proclamation throughout his kingdom and to put it in writing as follows:
2 Peneia ka olelo a Kuro ke alii o Peresia, O Iehova ke Akua o ka lani, ua haawi mai ia no'u i na aupuni a pau o ka honua; a ua kauoha mai oia ia'u e hana i hale nona ma Ierusalema i Iuda.
“This is what Cyrus king of Persia says: ‘The LORD, the God of heaven, who has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, has appointed me to build a house for Him at Jerusalem in Judah.
3 Owai la ka mea iwaena o oukou no kona poe kanaka a pau? o kona Akua kekahi me ia, a e pii aku ia ma Ierusalema i Iuda, a e hana i ka hale ma Ierusalema no Iehova ke Akua o ka laeraela, oia ke Akua.
Whoever among you belongs to His people, may his God be with him, and may he go to Jerusalem in Judah and build the house of the LORD, the God of Israel; He is the God who is in Jerusalem.
4 A o kela mea keia mea e noho ana ma na wahi a pau ana e noho la, e kokua mai na kanaka o kona wahi ia ia me ke kala, a me ke gula, a me ka waiwai, a me na holoholona, me ka makana no hoi no ka hale o ke Akua ma Ierusalema.
And let every survivor, wherever he lives, be assisted by the men of that region with silver, gold, goods, and livestock, along with a freewill offering for the house of God in Jerusalem.’”
5 Alaila ku ae la ka poe koikoi o na makua no ka Iuda, a me ka Beniamina, a me na kahuna, a me na Levi, o na mea a pau a ke Akua i hoala mai ai i ko lakou mau naau e pii ae e hana i ka hale no Iehova ma Ierusalema.
So the family heads of Judah and Benjamin, along with the priests and Levites—everyone whose spirit God had stirred—prepared to go up and rebuild the house of the LORD in Jerusalem.
6 A kokua mai no ko lakou poe hoalauna a pau ia lakou me na kiaha kala, a me ke gula, me ka waiwai, a me na holoholona, a me na mea maikai, a he okoa hoi na mea a pau i haawi lokomaikai ia mai.
And all their neighbors supported them with articles of silver and gold, with goods and livestock, and with valuables, in addition to all their freewill offerings.
7 A lawe mai la o Kuro, ke alii, i na kiaha o ka hale o Iehova, na mea a Nebukaneza i lawe ae mai Ierusalema mai, a waiho ia lakou iloko o ka hale o kona mau akua;
King Cyrus also brought out the articles belonging to the house of the LORD that Nebuchadnezzar had carried away from Jerusalem and placed in the temple of his gods.
8 Oia mau mea ka Kuro ke alii o Peresia i lawe mai ai iwaho, ma ka lima o Miteredate, ka puukukala, a helu aku la ia mau mea no Sesehazara, ka luna no ka Iuda.
Cyrus king of Persia had them brought out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, who counted them out to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah.
9 A eia ka huina o ia mau mea; he kanakolu ipu gula, a hookahi tausani ipu kala, he iwakaluakumamaiwa pahi,
This was the inventory: 30 gold dishes, 1,000 silver dishes, 29 silver utensils,
10 He kanakolu bola gula, eha haneri a me ka umi keu na bola kala maikai iki iho, a o na kiaha e ae hookahi tausani.
30 gold bowls, 410 matching silver bowls, and 1,000 other articles.
11 O na mea gula a pau, a me ke kala, elima tausani a me na haneri eha. O keia mau mea a pau ka Sesehazara i lawe aku ai i ka pii ana o ka poe pio mai Babulona aku a Ierusalema.
In all, there were 5,400 gold and silver articles. Sheshbazzar brought all these along when the exiles went up from Babylon to Jerusalem.
