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 the Persians, that the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias might be fulfilled, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of the Persians: and he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and in writing also, saying:
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.
Thus saith Cyrus king of the Persians: The Lord the God of heaven hath given to me all the kingdoms of the earth, and he hath charged me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judea.
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.
Who is there among you of all his people? His God be with him. Let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judea, and build the house of the Lord the God of Israel: he is the God that 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 all the rest in all places wheresoever they dwell, help him every man from his place. with silver and gold, and goods, and cattle, besides that which they offer freely to the temple of God, which is 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.
Then rose up the chief of the fathers of Juda and Benjamin, and the priests, and Levites, and every one whose spirit God had raised up, to go up to build the temple of the Lord, which was 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 they that were round about, helped their hands with vessels of silver, and gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with furniture, besides what they had offered on their own accord.
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;
And king Cyrus brought forth the vessels of the temple of the Lord, which Nabuchodonosor had taken from Jerusalem, and had put them in the temple of his god.
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.
Now Cyrus king of Persia brought them forth by the hand of Mithridates the son of Gazabar, and numbered them to Sassabasar the prince of Juda.
9 A eia ka huina o ia mau mea; he kanakolu ipu gula, a hookahi tausani ipu kala, he iwakaluakumamaiwa pahi,
And this is the number of them: thirty bowls of gold, a thousand bowls of silver, nine and twenty knives, thirty cups of gold,
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.
Silver cups of a second sort, four hundred and ten: other vessels a thousand.
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.
All the vessels of gold and silver, five thousand four hundred: all these Sassabasar brought with them that came up from the captivity of Babylon to Jerusalem.
