Ezra 1
1 Katika mwaka wa kwanza wa Koreshi, mfalme wa Uajemi, Yahwe akatimiza neno lake ambalo Yeremia alisema, na kuinua roho ya Koreshi. Sauti ya Koreshi ikasambaa na kusikika katika ufalme wake. Hiki ndicho kilichoandikwa na kusemwa:
and in/on/with year one to/for Cyrus king Persia to/for to end: destroy word LORD from lip Jeremiah to rouse LORD [obj] spirit Cyrus king Persia and to pass voice: message in/on/with all royalty his and also in/on/with writing to/for to say
2 “Koreshi, mfalme wa Uajemi, anasema: Yahwe, Mungu wa mbinguni, amenipa mimi ufalme wote wa dunia, na ameniteua mimi kumjengea yeye nyumba katika Yerusalem ya Yuda.
thus to say Cyrus king Persia all kingdom [the] land: country/planet to give: give to/for me LORD God [the] heaven and he/she/it to reckon: overseer upon me to/for to build to/for him house: home in/on/with Jerusalem which in/on/with Judah
3 Yeyote katika watu wake (Mungu awe pamoja naye) anaweza kwenda Yerusalem na kujenga nyumba kwa ajili ya Yahwe, Mungu wa Israel, Mungu ambaye yuko Yerusalem.
who? in/on/with you from all people his to be God his with him and to ascend: rise to/for Jerusalem which in/on/with Judah and to build [obj] house: temple LORD God Israel he/she/it [the] God which in/on/with Jerusalem
4 Watu wa kila sehemu katika ufalme waliosalia katika nchi na kuishi wanapaswa kuwapa wao fedha na dhahabu, mali na wanyama, pamoja na kutoa kwa hiari kwenye nyumba ya Mungu Yerusalem.”
and all [the] to remain from all [the] place which he/she/it to sojourn there to lift: aid him human place his in/on/with silver: money and in/on/with gold and in/on/with property and in/on/with animal with [the] voluntariness to/for house: temple [the] God which in/on/with Jerusalem
5 Ndipo wakuu wa jamii ya Yuda na Benjamini, makuhani na walawi, na kila mmoja ambaye Roho wa Mungu alimwinua kuondoka na kujenga nyumba yake alisimama.
and to arise: rise head: leader [the] father to/for Judah and Benjamin and [the] priest and [the] Levi to/for all to rouse [the] God [obj] spirit his to/for to ascend: rise to/for to build [obj] house: temple LORD which in/on/with Jerusalem
6 Wale waliowazunguka karibu waliwasaidia kwa kuwapa fedha na vitu vya dhahabu, mali, wanyama, vitu vya thamani, na kutoa kwa hiari.
and all around them to strengthen: strengthen in/on/with hand their in/on/with article/utensil silver: money in/on/with gold in/on/with property and in/on/with animal and in/on/with precious thing to/for alone: besides upon all be willing
7 Mfalme Koreshi akarusu vitu ambavyo vilikuwa kwenye nyumba ya Yahwe, ambavyo Nebukadreza alitoa kutoka Yerusalem na kuviweka katika nyumba ya miungu yake.
and [the] king Cyrus to come out: send [obj] article/utensil house: temple LORD which to come out: send Nebuchadnezzar from Jerusalem and to give: put them in/on/with house: temple God his
8 Koreshi akavikabidhi kwenye mikono ya Mithredathi mtunza fedha, ambaye akavitoa na kuhesabu kwa Sheshbaza, kiongozi wa Yuda
and to come out: send them Cyrus king Persia upon hand: power Mithredath [the] treasurer and to recount them to/for Sheshbazzar [the] leader to/for Judah
9 Hii ilikuwa idadi yake: beseni thelathini za dhahabu, beseni elfu moja za fedha, beseni zingine ishirini na tisa,
and these number their basin gold thirty basin silver: money thousand knife nine and twenty
10 mabakuli thelathini ya dhahabu, mabakuli madogo ya fedha 410, na vitu elfu moja vya kuongezea.
bowl gold thirty bowl silver: money second four hundred and ten article/utensil another thousand
11 Kulikuwa na vitu 5, 400 vya fedha na dhahabu. Sheshbaza akavileta vyote wakati wa uhamisho kutoka Babeli kwenda Yerusalem.
all article/utensil to/for gold and to/for silver: money five thousand and four hundred [the] all to ascend: establish Sheshbazzar with to ascend: establish [the] captivity from Babylon to/for Jerusalem
