Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that Yahweh’s word by Jeremiah’s mouth might be accomplished, Yahweh stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,
2 “Èyí ni ohun tí Kirusi ọba Persia wí pé: “‘Olúwa, Ọlọ́run ọ̀run, ti fún mi ní gbogbo ìjọba ayé. Ó sì ti yàn mí láti kọ́ tẹmpili Olúwa fún un ní Jerusalẹmu tí ó wà ní Juda.
“Cyrus king of Persia says, ‘Yahweh, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he has commanded me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
3 Ẹnikẹ́ni nínú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ láàrín yín—kí Ọlọ́run rẹ̀ wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, kí ó sì gòkè lọ sí Jerusalẹmu tí ó wà ní Juda, láti kọ́ tẹmpili Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli, Ọlọ́run tí ó wà ní Jerusalẹmu.
Whoever there is among you of all his people, may his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of Yahweh, the God of Israel (he is God), which is in Jerusalem.
4 Kí àwọn ènìyàn ní ibikíbi tí ẹni náà bá ń gbé kí ó fi fàdákà àti wúrà pẹ̀lú ohun tí ó dára àti ẹran ọ̀sìn, pẹ̀lú ọrẹ àtinúwá ràn án lọ́wọ́ fún tẹmpili Ọlọ́run ní Jerusalẹmu.’”
Whoever is left, in any place where he lives, let the men of his place help him with silver, with gold, with goods, and with animals, in addition to the free will offering for God’s house which is in Jerusalem.’”
5 Nígbà náà àwọn olórí ìdílé Juda àti Benjamini àti àwọn àlùfáà àti àwọn ará Lefi—olúkúlùkù ẹni tí Ọlọ́run ti fọwọ́ tọ́ ọkàn rẹ̀—múra láti gòkè lọ láti kọ ilé Olúwa ní Jerusalẹmu.
Then the heads of fathers’ households of Judah and Benjamin, the priests and the Levites, all whose spirit God had stirred to go up, rose up to build Yahweh’s house which is in Jerusalem.
6 Gbogbo àwọn aládùúgbò wọn ràn wọ́n lọ́wọ́ pẹ̀lú ohun èlò ti fàdákà àti wúrà, pẹ̀lú onírúurú ohun ìní àti ẹran ọ̀sìn àti pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹ̀bùn iyebíye, ní àfikún si gbogbo àwọn ọrẹ àtinúwá.
All those who were around them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, with animals, and with precious things, in addition to all that was willingly offered.
7 Ní àfikún, ọba Kirusi mú àwọn ohun èlò tí ó jẹ́ ti ilé Olúwa jáde wá, tí Nebukadnessari ti kó lọ láti Jerusalẹmu tí ó sì ti kó sí ilé òrìṣà rẹ̀.
Also Cyrus the king brought out the vessels of Yahweh’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought out of Jerusalem, and had put in the house of his gods;
8 Kirusi ọba Persia pàṣẹ fún Mitredati olùṣọ́ ilé ìṣúra láti kó wọn jáde, ó sì kà wọ́n fún Ṣeṣbassari ìjòyè Juda.
even those, Cyrus king of Persia brought out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and counted them out to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah.
9 Èyí ni iye wọn. Ọgbọ̀n àwo wúrà 30 Ẹgbẹ̀rún àwo fàdákà 1,000 Àwo ìrúbọ fàdákà mọ́kàndínlọ́gbọ̀n 29
This is the number of them: thirty platters of gold, one thousand platters of silver, twenty-nine knives,
10 Ọgbọ̀n àdému wúrà 30 Irinwó ó lé mẹ́wàá oríṣìí àdému fàdákà mìíràn 410 Ẹgbẹ̀rún kan àwọn ohun èlò mìíràn 1,000
thirty bowls of gold, four hundred ten silver bowls of a second kind, and one thousand other vessels.
11 Gbogbo ohun èlò wúrà àti ti fàdákà ní àpapọ̀ jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún márùn-ún ó lé irinwó. Ṣeṣbassari kó gbogbo àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí wá pẹ̀lú àwọn ìgbèkùn tí ó gòkè wá láti Babeli sí Jerusalẹmu.
All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand four hundred. Sheshbazzar brought all these up when the captives were brought up from Babylon to Jerusalem.
