以斯拉記-Ezra 第 1 章

1:1波斯王古列元年,耶和華為要成就祂藉耶利米口所說的話,就激動波斯王古列的靈,使他通告全國,下詔書說,
Now in the first year of Cyrus the king of Persia, so that the word of Jehovah by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, Jehovah stirred up the spirit of Cyrus the king of Persia; and he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom and put it also in writing, saying,
1:2波斯王古列如此說,耶和華天上的神已將地上萬國賜給我,又囑咐我在猶大的耶路撒冷為祂建造殿宇。
Thus says Cyrus the king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth has Jehovah the God of heaven given to me; and He has charged me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
1:3你們中間凡作祂子民的,可以上猶大的耶路撒冷,建造在耶路撒冷之耶和華以色列神的殿;(祂是神;)願這人的神與他同在。
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 let him build the house of Jehovah the God of Israel-He is God-who is in Jerusalem.
1:4凡余剩的人,無論寄居何處,那處的人要用金銀、財物、牲畜支助他,另外也要為在耶路撒冷神的殿,甘心獻上禮物。
And everyone who is left, in whatever place he sojourns, let the men of his place support him with silver and with gold and with goods and with cattle, besides the freewill offering for the house of God, which is in Jerusalem.
1:5於是,猶大和便雅憫的宗族首領、祭司、利未人,就是一切被神激動他靈的人,都起來要上去建造在耶路撒冷耶和華的殿。
Then the heads of the fathers' houses of Judah and Benjamin and the priests and the Levites rose up, even everyone whose spirit God had stirred up to go up to build the house of Jehovah, which is in Jerusalem.
1:6他們四圍的人就拿銀器、金子、財物、牲畜、寶物幫助他們,另外還有各樣甘心獻的禮物。
And all those around them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with cattle and with precious things, besides all that was offered willingly.
1:7古列王也將耶和華殿的器皿拿出來,這些器皿是尼布甲尼撒從耶路撒冷拿出來,放在自己神之廟中的。
Also King Cyrus brought out the vessels of the house of Jehovah, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought out from Jerusalem and had put in the house of his gods;
1:8波斯王古列派庫官米提利達將這些器皿拿出來,點交給猶大的首領設巴薩。
And Cyrus the king of Persia had them brought out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer and had them enumerated to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah.
1:9器皿的數目記在下面:金盤三十個,銀盤一千個,刀二十九把,
And this was their number: thirty gold dishes, one thousand silver dishes, twenty-nine knives,
1:10金碗三十個,次等銀碗四百一十個,別樣的器皿一千件。
Thirty gold bowls, four hundred ten silver bowls of a different kind, and one thousand other vessels.
1:11金銀器皿共有五千四百件。被擄的人從巴比倫被帶上耶路撒冷的時候,設巴薩將這一切都帶上來。
There were five thousand four hundred vessels of gold and silver in all. Sheshbazzar brought up all of them with those of the captivity who were brought up from Babylon to Jerusalem.
