エズラ記 1
1 ペルシヤ王クロスの元年に當りヱホバ曩にエレミヤの口によりて傳へたまひしその聖言を成んとてペルシヤ王クロスの心を感動したまひければ王すなはち宣命をつたへ詔書を出して徧く國中に告示して云く
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,
2 ペルシヤ王クロスかく言ふ 天の神ヱホバ地上の諸國を我に賜へり その家をユダのヱルサレムに建ることを我に命ず
“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;
3 凡そ汝らの中もしその民たる者あらばその神の助を得てユダのヱルサレムに上りゆきヱルサレムなるイスラエルの神ヱホバの室を建ることをせよ 彼は神にましませり
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.
4 その民にして生存れる者等の寓りをる處の人々は之に金銀貨財家畜を予へて助くべし その外にまたヱルサレムなる神の室のために物を誠意よりささぐべしと
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.”
5 是にユダとベニヤミンの宗家の長祭司レビ人など凡て神にその心を感動せられし者等ヱルサレムなるヱホバの室を建んとて起おこれり
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;
6 その周圍の人々みな銀の器黄金貨財家畜および寳物を予へて之に力をそへこの外にまた各種の物を誠意より獻げたり
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.
7 クロス王またネブカデネザルが前にヱルサレムより携へ出して己の神の室に納めたりしヱホバの室の器皿を取いだせり
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;
8 即ちペルシヤ王クロス庫官ミテレダテの手をもて之を取いだしてユダの牧伯セシバザルに數へ交付せり
indeed, Cyrus king of Persia brings them out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbers them to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah.
9 その數は是のごとし 金の盤三十 銀の盤一千 小刀二十九
And this [is] their number: dishes of gold thirty, dishes of silver one thousand, knives twenty-nine,
10 金の大斝三十、二等の銀の大斝四百十 その他の器具一千
basins of gold thirty, basins of silver (seconds) four hundred and ten, other vessels one thousand.
11 金銀の器皿は合せて五千四百ありしがセシバザル俘擄人等をバビロンよりヱルサレムに將て上りし時に之をことごとく携へ上れり
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.
