23 Ciro, rey de Persia, dice: Yavé, el ʼElohim del cielo, me dio todos los reinos de la tierra y me designó para que le construya una Casa en Jerusalén, que está en Judá. El que de ustedes sea de su pueblo, que Yavé su ʼElohim sea con él, y suba.
Thus says Cyrus king of the Persians to all the kingdoms of the earth, The Lord God of heaven has given me [power], and he has commanded me to build a house to him in Jerusalem, in Judea. Who [is there] of you of all his people? His God shall be with him, and let him go up.
