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 “Pa inge sap soko lal Cyrus, Tokosra Fulat lun Persia. LEUM GOD lun Kusrao El orala tuh nga in leumi faclu nufon, ac El se nu sik in musai sie tempul nu sel in Jerusalem in acn Judah.
“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 Lela God Elan wi kowos nukewa su mwet lal. Kowos som nu Jerusalem ac sifil musaela Tempul lun LEUM GOD, su God lun Israel, aok God su mwet uh alu nu se in Jerusalem.
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 Kutena mwet lal su muta in sruoh fin enenu kasru nu ke folok, mwet tulan lalos in kasrelos ke silver, gold, mwe mongo ac nuknuk, kosro in utuk ma lalos, oayapa mwe lung tuh in mwe sang lalos in Tempul lun God in acn Jerusalem.”
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 Na sifen sou in sruf lun Judah ac sruf lun Benjamin, oayapa mwet tol ac mwet Levi, ac elos nukewa saya su God El purakak nunak lalos, elos akola in som ac sifil musaela Tempul lun LEUM GOD in Jerusalem.
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 Mwet tulan lalos nukewa kasrelos ac sang ma puspis nu selos: ahlu silver, gold, mwe mongo ac nuknuk, kosro in utuk ma lalos, kutu pac ma saok, oayapa mwe sang nu ke Tempul.
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 Tokosra Fulat Cyrus el folokonang nu selos ahlu ac cup ma Tokosra Nebuchadnezzar el tuh usla liki Tempul in Jerusalem ac likiya in tempul lun god lal.
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 El sang ma inge nu sel Mithredath, mwet karingin mwe kasrup lun mwet Israel, na Mithredath el oakla ac simusla pisen kais sie ma, ac sang nu sel Sheshbazzar, governor lun Judah.
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 Pa inge koanon oaoa sac: ahlu gold mwe neinyuk mwe sang 30 ahlu silver mwe neinyuk mwe sang 1,000 ahlu saya 29
This was the inventory: 30 gold dishes, 1,000 silver dishes, 29 silver utensils,

30 gold bowls, 410 matching silver bowls, and 1,000 other articles.
11 Ma inge nukewa toeni orala 5,400 ahlu gold ac silver ac kutu pac ma saya ma Sheshbazzar el us ke el ac mwet sruoh wial elos illa liki Babylon ac som nu Jerusalem.
In all, there were 5,400 gold and silver articles. Sheshbazzar brought all these along when the exiles went up from Babylon to Jerusalem.
