< 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 the first year of Cyrus, king of Persia, Yahweh fulfilled his word that came from the mouth of Jeremiah, and stirred Cyrus's spirit. Cyrus' voice went out over his entire kingdom. This is what was written and spoken:
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.
“Cyrus, king of Persia, says: Yahweh, God of Heaven, gave me all the kingdoms of the earth, and he appointed me to build for him a house in Jerusalem in Judea.
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.
Whoever is from his people (may his God be with him) may go up to Jerusalem and build a house for Yahweh, the God of Israel, the God who is in Jerusalem.
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.
People of any part of the kingdom where survivors of that land are living should provide them with silver and gold, possessions and animals, as well as a freewill offering for God's house 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 the heads of the ancestors' clans of Judah and Benjamin, the priests and Levites, and everyone whose spirit God stirred to go and build his house arose.
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.
Those around them supported their work with silver and gold objects, possessions, animals, valuables, and freewill offerings.
7 Un ķēniņš Kirus atdeva Tā Kunga nama traukus, ko NebukadNecars no Jeruzālemes bija aizvedis un nolicis sava dieva namā.
Cyrus king of Persia also released the objects belonging to Yahweh's house that Nebuchadnezzar had brought from Jerusalem and put in his own gods' houses.
8 Un Kirus, Persiešu ķēniņš, tos atdeva caur mantas sargu Mitredatu, un tas tos ieskaitīja Šešbacaram, Jūda virsniekam.
Cyrus put them into the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, who counted them out for Sheshbazzar, Judea's leader.
9 Un šis ir viņu skaits: trīsdesmit zelta bļodas, tūkstoš sudraba bļodas, divdesmit deviņi naži,
This was their number: thirty gold basins, one thousand silver basins, twenty-nine other basins,
10 Trīsdesmit zelta biķeri, četrsimt desmit citi sudraba biķeri un tūkstoš citi trauki.
thirty gold bowls, 410 small silver bowls, and one thousand additional objects.
11 Visu zelta un sudraba trauku bija piectūkstoš četrsimt. Šos visus Šešbacars pārveda, kad tie aizvestie no Bābeles gāja atpakaļ uz Jeruzālemi.
There were 5,400 gold and silver items in all. Sheshbazzar brought all of them when the exiles went from Babylon to Jerusalem.
