एज्रा 1
1 फारसका राजा कोरेसको पहिलो वर्षमा परमप्रभुले यर्मियाद्वारा बोल्नुभएको आफ्नो वचन पुरा गर्नुभयो, र कोरेसको आत्मालाई उत्तेजित पार्नुभयो । कोरेसको आदेश तिनका सारा राज्यभरि पुग्यो । लेखिएको र बोलिएको कुरो यही नै हो,
Now in the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, that the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremias might be fulfilled, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of the Persians, and he issued a proclamation through all his kingdom, and that in writing, saying,
2 “फारसका राजा कोरेस भन्नुहुन्छ, 'परमप्रभु स्वर्गका परमेश्वरले मलाई सारा पृथ्वीका राज्यहरू दिनुभयो, र उहाँले यहूदियाको यरूशलेममा एउटा मन्दिर निर्माण गर्नलाई मलाई नियुक्त गर्नुभयो ।
Thus said Cyrus king of the Persians, The Lord God of heaven has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, and he has given me a charge to build him a house in Jerusalem that is in Judea.
3 जो उहाँका मानिसहरू हुन् (तिनका परमेश्वर तिनीसित होऊन्) तिनीहरू यरूशलेममा जान र यरूशलेममा बास गर्नुहुने इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको निम्ति एउटा मन्दिर बनाउन सक्छन् ।
Who [is] there among you of all his people? for his God shall be with him, and he shall go up to Jerusalem that is in Judea, and let him build the house of the God of Israel: he [is] the God that is in Jerusalem.
4 राज्यको कुनै पनि क्षेत्रमा भएका मानिसहरू जहाँ त्यस देशका बाँकी बचेकाहरू बसोबास गर्दैछन्, तिनीहरूले यरूशलेममा भएको परमेश्वरको मन्दिर बनाउनलाई चाँदी र सुन, धनदौलत र गाईवस्तु अनि स्वेच्छा भेटी दिनुपर्छ ।”
And [let] every [Jew] that is left [go] from every place where he sojourns, and the men of his place shall help him with silver, and gold, and goods, and cattle, together with the voluntary offering for the house of God that is in Jerusalem.
5 तब परमप्रभुको मन्दिर निर्माण गर्न परमेश्वरले उत्तेजित पार्नुभएका हरेक मानिस, यहूदा र बेन्यामीनका कुलाका प्रमुख अगुवाहरू र पुजारीहरू अनि लेवीहरू उठे ।
Then the chiefs of the families of Juda and Benjamin arose, and the priests, and the Levites, all whose spirit the Lord stirred up to go up to build the house of the Lord that [is] in Jerusalem.
6 तिनीहरूका वरिपरि भएकाहरूले तिनीहरूको कामलाई चाँदी, सुनका चिजहरू, धन-सम्पत्ति, गाईवस्तु, मुल्यवान चिजहरू र स्वेच्छा भेटीहरू दिएर सहयोग गरे ।
And all that were round about strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with cattle, and with presents, besides the voluntary offerings.
7 नबूकदनेसरले यरूशलेमबाट ल्याएका र आफ्ना देवताहरूको मन्दिरमा राखेका परमप्रभुको मन्दिरका चिजहरू पनि फारसका राजा कोरेस निकाले ।
And king Cyrus brought out the vessels of the house of the Lord, which Nabuchodonosor had brought from Jerusalem, and put in the house of his god.
8 कोरेसले ती कोषाध्यक्ष मित्रेताको हातमा दिए जसले यहूदाका अगुवा शेशबस्सरको निम्ति ती चीजहरूको गणना गरे ।
And Cyrus king of the Persians brought them out by the hand of Mithradates the treasurer, and he numbered them to Sasabasar, the chief man of Juda.
9 ती वस्तुहरूको सङ्ख्या यस प्रकार थिए: सुनका भाँडा तिसवटा, चाँदीका भाँडा एक हजारवटा, उनन्तिसवटा बाटा,
And this [is] their number: thirty gold basins, and a thousand silver basins, nine and twenty changes, thirty golden goblets,
10 सुनका कचौरा तिसवटा, चार सय दसवटा चाँदीका स-साना कचौरा र एक हजारवटा अन्य भाँडाकुँडा ।
and four hundred [and] ten double silver [vessels], and a thousand other vessels.
11 सुन र चाँदीका सामानको जम्मा सङ्ख्या ५,४०० ओटा थियो । निर्वासितहरू बेबिलोनबाट यरूशलेममा फर्कंदा शेशबस्सरले ती सबै कुरा ल्याए ।
All the gold and silver vessels were five thousand four hundred, [even] all that went up with Sasabasar from the [place of] transportation, from Babylon to Jerusalem.
