U-Ezra 1
1 Kwathi ngomnyaka wokuqala kaKoresi inkosi yePerisiya, ekugcwalisekeni kwelizwi leNkosi ngomlomo kaJeremiya, iNkosi yavusa umoya kaKoresi inkosi yePerisiya ukuthi edlulise isimemezelo embusweni wakhe wonke, njalo langombhalo, esithi:
In Eraygii Rabbiga ee Yeremyaah afkiisa ka soo baxay uu ahaado aawadeed, sannaddii kowaad oo Kuuros oo ahaa boqorkii Faaris ayaa Rabbigu kiciyey ruuxii Kuuros oo ahaa boqorkii Faaris, oo isna boqortooyadiisii oo dhan ayuu ogeysiis ugu dhawaaqay oo weliba qoray, oo wuxuu yidhi,
2 Utsho njalo uKoresi inkosi yePerisiya: INkosi, uNkulunkulu wamazulu, inginikile yonke imibuso yomhlaba; layo ingilayile ukuyakhela indlu eJerusalema ekoJuda.
Kuuros oo ah boqorka Faaris wuxuu leeyahay, Boqortooyooyinka dhulka oo dhan waxaa i siiyey Rabbiga ah Ilaaha samada; oo wuxuu igu amray inaan isaga guri uga dhiso Yeruusaalem oo ku taal dalka Yahuudah.
3 Ngubani ophakathi kwenu kubo bonke abantu bayo? UNkulunkulu wakhe kabe laye, enyukele eJerusalema ekoJuda, akhe indlu yeNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli (unguNkulunkulu) oseJerusalema.
Haddaba ku alla kii idinku dhex jira oo dadkiisa ah Ilaahiisu ha la jiro, oo isna ha tago Yeruusaalem oo dalka Yahuudah ku taal, oo ha dhiso guriga Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil oo ku yaal Yeruusaalem. (Isagu waa Ilaah.)
4 Laloba ngubani oseleyo lakuyiphi yezindawo lapho ahlala njengowezizwe khona, kakuthi abantu bendawo yakibo bamsekele ngesiliva, langegolide, langempahla, langezifuyo, kanye lomnikelo wesihle wendlu kaNkulunkulu eseJerusalema.
Oo ku alla kii ku hadha meesha uu deggan yahay, dadka ay isku degmada yihiin ha ku caawiyaan lacag iyo dahab, iyo xoolo mood iyo noolba ah, oo ayan ku jirin qurbaanka ay ikhtiyaarkooda ugu bixiyaan guriga Ilaah oo Yeruusaalem ku yaal.
5 Kwasekusukuma inhloko zaboyise bakoJuda loBhenjamini, labapristi lamaLevi, laye wonke uNkulunkulu ayevuse umoya wakhe, ukuthi benyukele ukwakha indlu yeNkosi eseJerusalema.
Markaasaa waxaa kacay madaxdii qolooyinka reer Yahuudah iyo reer Benyaamiin, iyo wadaaddadii, iyo reer Laawi, iyo xataa dhammaan intii kale ee Ilaah ruuxooda kiciyey si ay u tagaan oo ay u dhisaan guriga Rabbiga oo Yeruusaalem ku yaal.
6 Labo bonke ababebaphahlile baqinisa izandla zabo ngezitsha zesiliva, ngegolide, ngempahla, langezifuyo, langezinto eziligugu, ngaphandle kwakho konke okwakunikelwe ngesihle.
Oo kulli intii hareerahooda ku wareegsanayd oo dhammu waxay gacmahooda ku xoogeeyeen weelal lacag ah iyo dahab, iyo xoolo mood iyo noolba ah, iyo waxyaalo qaali ah, oo wixii ikhtiyaarka loo bixiyey ayan ku jirin.
7 UKoresi inkosi laye wakhupha izitsha zendlu yeNkosi, uNebhukadinezari ayezikhuphe eJerusalema wazifaka endlini yabonkulunkulu bakhe.
Oo weliba Kuurosna wuxuu soo bixiyey weelashii guriga Rabbiga, oo Nebukadnesar uu Yeruusaalem ka soo bixiyey oo uu dhigay gurigii ilaahyadiisa.
8 UKoresi inkosi yePerisiya wasezikhupha ngesandla sikaMithiredathi umphathisikhwama owazibalela uSheshibazari isiphathamandla sakoJuda.
Oo Kuuros oo ahaa boqorkii Faaris ayaa alaabtaas soo bixiyey oo u dhiibay qasnajigii Mitredaad ahaa, oo isna wuxuu u tiriyey Sheeshbasar, oo reer Yahuudah amiir u ahaa.
9 Leli-ke linani lazo: Imiganu yegolide engamatshumi amathathu, imiganu yesiliva eyinkulungwane, izingqamu ezingamatshumi amabili lesificamunwemunye,
Oo tiradoodiina waa tan, soddon saxan oo dahab ah, iyo kun saxan oo lacag ah, iyo sagaal iyo labaatan mindiyood,
10 inkezo zegolide ezingamatshumi amathathu, ezinye inkezo zesiliva ezingamakhulu amane letshumi, ezinye izitsha eziyinkulungwane.
iyo soddon maddiibadood oo dahab ah, iyo afar boqol iyo toban maddiibadood oo ah lacagta caynka labaad ah, iyo kun weel oo kale.
11 Zonke izitsha zegolide lezesiliva zazizinkulungwane ezinhlanu lamakhulu amane. Zonke lezi uSheshibazari wazenyusa lalabo ababenyuswe ekuthunjweni bevela eBhabhiloni besiya eJerusalema.
Oo kulligood weelashii dahabka iyo lacagta ahaa waxay isku ahaayeen shan kun iyo afar boqol. Oo intaas oo dhan Sheeshbasar wuu wada keenay, markii Yeruusaalem la keenay maxaabiistii Baabuloon laga soo celiyey.
