Esdras 1
1 El año primero de Ciro, rey de Persia, para que se cumpliera la Palabra de Yavé por boca de Jeremías, Yavé despertó el espíritu de Ciro, rey de Persia, para que se proclamara en todo el reino por pregón y por escrito:
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 Ciro, rey de Persia, dice: Todos los reinos de la tierra me fueron dados por Yavé, ʼElohim de los cielos. Él mismo me encomendó que le construya Casa en Jerusalén.
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 El que de entre ustedes pertenezca a su pueblo, sea su ʼElohim con él. Suba a Jerusalén y reconstruya la Casa de Yavé, el ʼElohim de Israel. Él es el ʼElohim que está en Jerusalén.
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 Y a todo el que quedó, en cualquier lugar donde viva, que lo ayuden sus vecinos con plata, oro, bienes y ganado, junto con una ofrenda voluntaria para la Casa del ʼElohim que está en Jerusalén.
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 Entonces se levantaron los jefes de familia de Judá y Benjamín, los sacerdotes y los levitas, todos aquellos cuyo espíritu ʼElohim despertó para que subieran a reconstruir la Casa de Yavé en Jerusalén.
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 Todos los que estaban alrededor de ellos los animaron con objetos de plata, oro, bienes, ganado y cosas preciosas, además de lo que fue dado como una ofrenda voluntaria.
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 También el rey Ciro sacó los utensilios de la Casa de Yavé que Nabucodonosor llevó de Jerusalén y puso en el templo de sus ʼelohim.
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 Ciro, rey de Persia, los sacó por medio del tesorero Mitrídates, quien los entregó en mano de Sesbasar, el jefe de Judá.
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 Esta fue su cuenta: 30 tazones de oro, 1.000 tazones de plata, 29 cuchillos,
And this [is] their number: thirty gold basins, and a thousand silver basins, nine and twenty changes, thirty golden goblets,
10 30 tazas de oro, 410 tazas de plata de otra clase y otros 1.000 utensilios.
and four hundred [and] ten double silver [vessels], and a thousand other vessels.
11 Todos los utensilios de oro y de plata fueron 5.400. Sesbasar lo transportó todo cuando los del cautiverio de Babilonia regresaron a Jerusalén.
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.
