Etera 1
1 Na, i te tau tuatahi o Hairuha kingi o Pahia, he mea kia whakamana ai te kupu a Ihowa, i whakapuakina e Heremaia, ka whakaohokia e Ihowa te wairua o Hairuha kingi o Pahia, a tukua ana e tera tana karanga puta noa i tona kingitanga, i tuhituhi hok i e ia, i mea ia,
Nowe in the first yere of Cyrus King of Persia (that the worde of the Lord, spoken by the mouth of Ieremiah, might be accomplished) the Lord stirred vp the spirite of Cyrus King of Persia, and hee made a Proclamation thorowe all his Kingdome, and also by writing, saying,
2 Ko te kupu tenei a Hairuha kingi o Pahia, kua oti nga kingitanga katoa o te whenua te homai ki ahau e Ihowa, e te Atua o nga rangi; kua whakahaua mai hoki ahau e ia kia hanga he whare mona ki Hiruharama, ki tera i Hura.
Thus saith Cyrus King of Persia, The Lord God of heauen hath giuen me all the kingdomes of the earth, and he hath commanded me to builde him an house in Ierusalem, which is in Iudah.
3 Ahakoa ko wai o koutou o tana iwi katoa, hei a ia tona Atua, a me haere ake ia ki Hiruharama, ki tera i Hura, ki te hanga i te whare o Ihowa, o te Atua o Iharaira, ko ia nei te Atua, kei Hiruharama ano ia.
Who is he among you of all his people with whome his God is? let him goe vp to Ierusalem which is in Iudah, and buylde the house of the Lord God of Israel: he is the God, which is in Ierusalem.
4 Na, ko te tangata ka mahue ki te wahi e noho ai ia, ma nga tangata o tona wahi ia e awhina ki te hiriwa, ki te koura, ki te taonga, ki te kararehe, hei tapiri mo nga mea hoatu noa mo te whare o te Atua i Hiruharama.
And euery one that remayneth in any place (where he soiourneth) let the men of his place relieue him with siluer and with golde, and with substance, and with cattel, and with a willing offring, for the house of God that is in Ierusalem.
5 Katahi ka whakatika nga upoko o nga whare o nga matua o Hura, o Pineamine, me nga tohunga, me nga Riwaiti, me te hunga katoa i whakaohokia nei o ratou wairua e te Atua, ka mea ki te haere ki te hanga i te whare o Ihowa i Hiruharama.
Then the chiefe fathers of Iudah and Beniamin, and the Priests and Leuites rose vp, with al them whose spirit God had raysed to goe vp, to builde the house of the Lord which is in Ierusalem.
6 Na, ko nga tangata katoa i o ratou taha, kei te whakakaha i o ratou ringa ki te oko hiriwa, ki te koura, ki te taonga, ki te kararehe, ki te mea utu nui, he mea tapiri ki nga mea homai noa katoa.
And all they that were about them, strengthened their handes with vessels of siluer, with golde, with substance and with cattell, and with precious thinges, besides all that was willingly offred.
7 A i whakaputaina e Kingi Hairuha nga oko o te whare o Ihowa i kawea atu nei e ia ki roto ki te whare o ona atua;
Also the King Cyrus brought forth the vessels of the house of the Lord, which Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of Ierusalem, and had put them in the house of his god.
8 I whakaputaina enei e Hairuha kingi o Pahia, ara e Mitirerata kaitiaki taonga, taua atu ana e ia ki a Hehepatara rangatira o Hura.
Euen them did Cyrus King of Persia bring forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and counted them vnto Sheshbazzar the Prince of Iudah.
9 Ko te maha tenei o aua mea: e toru tekau peihana koura, kotahi mano peihana hiriwa, e rua tekau ma iwa maripi;
And this is the nomber of them, thirtie basins of golde, a thousand basins of siluer, nine and twentie kniues,
10 E toru tekau nga haka koura, ko nga haka hiriwa, he ahua ke, e wha rau kotahi tekau; ko etahi oko ke, kotahi mano.
Thirtie boules of gold, and of siluer boules of the second sort, foure hundreth and tenne, and of other vessels, a thousand.
11 Ko nga oko katoa, ke nga mea koura, ko nga mea hiriwa, e rima mano e wha rau. Ko enei katoa i kawea atu e Hehepatara i te kawenga o nga whakarau i Papurona ki Hiruharama.
All the vessels of golde and siluer were fiue thousand and foure hundreth. Sheshbazzar brought vp all with them of the captiuitie that came vp from Babel to Ierusalem.
