Esidrasi 1
1 Na mobu ya liboso ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, Yawe alamusaki molimo ya Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, mpo na kokokisa liloba oyo alobaki na nzela ya mosakoli Jeremi, mpo ete asakola mpe akoma boye kati na mokili na ye mobimba:
And in the first year of Cyrus the king of Persia, at the time the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremiah was accomplished, the Lord awakened the spirit of Cyrus the king of Persia; and he caused a proclamation to be made throughout all his kingdom, and also by means of writing, saying,
2 « Tala makambo oyo Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, alobi: ‹ Yawe, Nzambe ya Likolo, apesi ngai babokonzi nyonso ya mabele mpe mokumba ya kotongela Ye Tempelo, na Yelusalemi kati na Yuda.
Thus hath said Cyrus the king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath the Lord the God of heaven given unto me; and he hath directed me to build for him a house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
3 Tika ete moto nyonso oyo, kati na bino, azali na molongo ya bato ya Yawe akende na Yelusalemi kati na Yuda mpo na kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe, Nzambe ya Isalaele, oyo azali Nzambe kati na Yelusalemi!
Whoever among you that is of all his people, may his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of the Lord the God of Israel, he is the God who is in Jerusalem.
4 Tika ete bavandi ya bisika nyonso oyo bato ya Yuda bazali bapesa bango, mpo na Ndako ya Nzambe oyo ezali na Yelusalemi, makabo oyo: palata, wolo, bibwele, biloko ya ndenge na ndenge mpe makabo oyo bakati bango moko kopesa wuta na mokano ya mitema na bango. › »
And whosoever remaineth out of any place where he hath sojourned, him shall the men of his place assist with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, beside the freewill offering for the house of God which is in Jerusalem.
5 Bongo bakambi ya mabota ya Yuda mpe ya Benjame, Banganga-Nzambe mpe Balevi, elongo na moto nyonso oyo Nzambe atutaki motema babongamaki mpo na kokende kotonga Tempelo ya Yawe, na Yelusalemi.
Then rose up the chiefs of the divisions of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, with all those whose spirit God had awakened, to go up to build the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem.
6 Bato nyonso oyo bazalaki zingazinga na bango basungaki bango; bapesaki biloko esalema na palata mpe na wolo, bibwele, biloko ya ndenge na ndenge, bakado ya talo mpe makabo oyo bakataki bango moko kopesa wuta na mokano ya mitema na bango.
And all those that were round about them supplied them with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, beside all that was willingly offered.
7 Mokonzi Sirisi abimisaki biloko ya Tempelo ya Yawe, oyo Nabukodonozori amemaki wuta na Yelusalemi mpo na kotia yango kati na tempelo ya nzambe na ye.
Also king Cyrus brought forth the vessels of the house of the Lord, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought away out of Jerusalem, and had placed in the house of his god:
8 Sirisi, mokonzi ya Persi, atindaki Mitredati, mobombi bozwi na ye, ete abimisa, atanga mpe apesa yango epai ya Sheshibatsari, moto ya libota ya bakambi ya Yuda.
Even these did Cyrus the king of Persia bring forth through the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and counted them out unto Sheshbazzar the prince for Judah.
9 Tala biloko yango mpe motango na yango: bakopo ya wolo ezalaki tuku misato; bakopo ya palata ezalaki nkoto moko; basani ya mbele ya palata ezalaki tuku mibale na libwa;
And this is their number: Thirty chargers of gold, a thousand chargers of silver, nine and twenty knives,
10 basani ya wolo ezalaki tuku misato; basani minene ya palata ezalaki nkama minei na zomi; biloko mosusu ezalaki nkoto moko.
Thirty cups of gold, silver cups of a second degree four hundred and ten, other vessels a thousand.
11 Motango ya biloko nyonso ya wolo mpe ya palata ezalaki nkoto mitano na nkama minei. Sheshibatsari amemaki biloko yango nyonso tango bato oyo bakendeki na bowumbu balongwaki na Babiloni mpo na kozonga na Yelusalemi.
All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand and four hundred. All these did Sheshbazzar bring up with the exiles that were brought up from Babylon unto Jerusalem.
