< Ezra 1 >

1 Ie tan-taom-baloha’ ty fifehea’ i Korese mpanjaka’ i Parase, le trinobo’ Iehovà ty arofo’ i Korese mpanjaka’ i Parase, hañenefa’e ty tsara’ Iehovà am-palie’ Iirmeà, le nikoi-dava nanitsike ty fifehea’e iaby mbore nanoe’e an-tsokitse ty hoe:
Now in the first year of Cyrus, king of Persia, in order that the word of the Lord given by the mouth of Jeremiah might come true, the spirit of Cyrus, king of Persia, was moved by the Lord, so that he made a public statement through all his kingdom, and put it in writing, saying,
2 Hoe t’i Korese, mpanjaka’ i Parase, Fa natolo’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-dikerañey ahy iaby o fifelehañe an-tane atoio; vaho nafanto’e amako ty handranjy anjomba ho Aze e Ierosalaime e Iehoda añe.
These are the words of Cyrus, king of Persia: The Lord God of heaven has given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he has made me responsible for building a house for him in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
3 Ia ty eo amo hene’ ondati’eo? Ho ama’e abey t’i Andrianañahare’e, ehe t’ie hionjomb’e Ierosalaime e Iehoda añe hamboatse ty anjom­ba’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele—i toen’ Añahare e Ierosalaime ao.
Whoever there is among you of his people, may his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and take in hand the building of the house of the Lord, the God of Israel; he is the God who is in Jerusalem.
4 Le ze mbe sisa amy naneseañey: ehe te hañimb’ aze ondaty an-toe’eo am-bolafoty naho volamena vaho vara reketse hare, mandikoatse ty ho banabanae’e amy anjom­ban’ Añahare e Ierosalaimey.
And whoever there may be of the rest of Israel, living in any place, let the men of that place give him help with offerings of silver and gold and goods and beasts, in addition to the offering freely given for the house of God in Jerusalem.
5 Niongak’ amy zao o talèn’ an­jom­ba’ Iehodao naho o amy Beniamineo naho o mpisoro­ñeo naho o nte-Levio vaho ze nitroboen’ Arofon’ Añahare hionjomb’eo handranjy i anjomba’ Iehovà e Ierosa­laime añey.
Then the heads of families of Judah and Benjamin, with the priests and the Levites, got ready, even all those whose spirits were moved by God to go up and take in hand the building of the Lord's house in Jerusalem.
6 Le nampihafatrare’ o mañohoke iareoo o fità’ iareoo ami’ty fanake volafoty naho volamena naho vara naho hare vaho ze raha soa, mandikoatse o nibanabanañeo.
And all their neighbours gave them help with offerings of vessels of silver and gold and goods and beasts and things of great value, in addition to what was freely offered.
7 Nakare’ i Kerose ka o fana’ i anjomba’ Iehovày nendese’ i Nebokadnetsare boake Ierosalaime añe naho napoke an-trañon-drahare’eo,
And Cyrus the king got out the vessels of the house of the Lord which Nebuchadnezzar had taken from Jerusalem and put in the house of his gods;
8 ie naboa’ i Korese mpanjaka’ i Parase am-pità’ i Mitredate mpamandroñe vaho niahe’e amy Ses-bazare, mpifehe’ Iehodà.
Even these Cyrus made Mithredath, the keeper of his wealth, get out, and he gave them, after numbering them, to Sheshbazzar, the ruler of Judah.
9 Le zao ty ia’e: koveta volamena telopolo, koveta volafoty arivo, vi-lava roapolo-sive’ amby;
And this is the number of them: there were thirty gold plates, a thousand silver plates, twenty-nine knives,
10 soakazo volamena telopolo, soakazo faharoe volafoty efa-jato-folo’ amby vaho fanake ila’e arivo.
Thirty gold basins, four hundred and ten silver basins, and a thousand other vessels.
11 Aa le ze hene fanake volamena naho volafoty: lime-arivo tsi-efa-jato. Songa nasese’ i Ses-bazare mindre amo niavotse ty fandrohiza’ i Bavele, nionjoñe mb’e Ierosalaime añeo.
There were five thousand, four hundred gold and silver vessels. All these were taken back by Sheshbazzar, when those who had been taken prisoner went up from Babylon to Jerusalem.
