Ezras 1
1 Persiešu ķēniņa Kirus pirmā gadā, lai piepildītos Tā Kunga vārds caur Jeremijas muti, Tas Kungs pamodināja Persiešu ķēniņa Kirus garu, ka viņš ar vārdiem un arī ar grāmatām pa visu savu valsti lika izsludināt un sacīt:
In order to fulfill the Lord's prophecy given through Jeremiah, the Lord encouraged Cyrus, king of Persia, to issue a proclamation throughout his kingdom and also to put it in writing, saying,
2 Tā saka Kirus, Persiešu ķēniņš: Tas Kungs, debesu Dievs, man devis visas pasaules valstis, un Tas man pavēlējis, Viņam namu uzcelt Jeruzālemē, Jūdu zemē.
“This is what Cyrus king of Persia says: ‘The Lord, the God of heaven, who has given to me all the kingdoms of the earth, has given me the responsibility to build a Temple for him at Jerusalem in Judah.
3 Kas nu jūsu starpā ir no Viņa ļaudīm, lai viņa Dievs ir ar to, un lai tas iet uz Jeruzālemi Jūdu zemē, un lai uzceļ Tā Kunga, Israēla Dieva, namu. Viņš ir tas Dievs, kas Jeruzālemē dzīvo.
Anyone among you who belongs to his people can go to Jerusalem in Judah to rebuild this Temple of the Lord, the God of Israel, who lives in Jerusalem. May your God be with you.
4 Un kas vēl atlikuši visās vietās, kur tie piemīt, lai tās vietas ļaudis tiem palīdz ar sudrabu un zeltu un ar mantu un ar lopiem un arī ar laba prāta dāvanu priekš Jeruzālemes Dieva nama.
Wherever survivors are currently living, let them be helped by the people that region with silver, gold, goods, and livestock, together with a voluntary donation for God's Temple in Jerusalem.’”
5 Tad Jūda un Benjamina cilts tēvi un priesteri un leviti cēlās ar visiem, kam Dievs garu pamodināja uz ceļu doties, uzcelt Tā Kunga namu Jeruzālemē.
Then God encouraged the family leaders of Judah and Benjamin, as well as the priests and Levites to go and rebuild the Lord's Temple in Jerusalem.
6 Un visi viņu apkārtējie stiprināja viņu rokas ar sudraba traukiem, ar zeltu, ar mantu un lopiem un dārgiem zemes augļiem, bez tām labprātīgām upuru dāvanām.
All their neighbors supported them with gifts of silver and gold, with goods and livestock, and with other valuable items, in addition to all their voluntary donations.
7 Un ķēniņš Kirus atdeva Tā Kunga nama traukus, ko NebukadNecars no Jeruzālemes bija aizvedis un nolicis sava dieva namā.
King Cyrus also retrieved the items belonging to the Lord's Temple that Nebuchadnezzar had taken from Jerusalem and placed in the temple of his god.
8 Un Kirus, Persiešu ķēniņš, tos atdeva caur mantas sargu Mitredatu, un tas tos ieskaitīja Šešbacaram, Jūda virsniekam.
Cyrus had Mithredath the treasurer retrieve them, who counted them and gave them to Sheshbazzar, the leader of Judah.
9 Un šis ir viņu skaits: trīsdesmit zelta bļodas, tūkstoš sudraba bļodas, divdesmit deviņi naži,
This was the list: 30 gold basins, 1,000 silver basins, 29 silver silverware,
10 Trīsdesmit zelta biķeri, četrsimt desmit citi sudraba biķeri un tūkstoš citi trauki.
30 gold bowls, 410 matching silver bowls, and 1,000 other items.
11 Visu zelta un sudraba trauku bija piectūkstoš četrsimt. Šos visus Šešbacars pārveda, kad tie aizvestie no Bābeles gāja atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi.
In total there were 5,400 gold and silver items. When the exiles left Babylon to go to Jerusalem Sheshbazzar took all these along with them.
