Ezra 1
1 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,
波斯王居魯士元年，為應驗上主藉耶肋米亞的口所說的話，上主感動波斯王居魯士的心，叫他出一道號令，並向全國頒發上諭說：
2 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.
「波斯王居魯士這樣說：上天的神「雅威」將地上萬國交給了我，囑咐我在猶大的耶路撒冷，為衪建築一座殿宇。
3 Who [is] there amongst 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.
你們中間凡作衪子民的，願他的神與他同在，上赫特4的耶路撒冷，建築以色列的神「雅威」的──是在耶路撒冷的神。
4 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.
所有的遺民，無論僑居在地方，那地方的人都應捐獻金銀、貨財、牲畜，以及自願的獻儀，為那在耶路撒冷的神修建殿宇」。
5 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.
於是，猶大和本雅明的族長、司祭、肋未人，以及那些受天主感動了心的人，就起身上去，要建築耶路撒冷的上主的殿宇；
6 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.
四鄰八舍都拿出a的金銀、貨財、牲畜和珠實來協助他們，另外還有各種自願的獻儀。
7 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.
居魯士王也將上主殿內的器皿，即先前拿步高從耶路撒冷掠奪而放在他神殿裏的器皿，
8 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.
波斯王居魯士司庫官米特達特，將那些東西拿出，點交給猶太人的首領舍士巴匝，
9 And this [is] their number: thirty gold basins, and a thousand silver basins, nine and twenty changes, thirty golden goblets,
共計金盆三十，銀盆一千，刀子二十九，
10 and four hundred [and] ten double silver [vessels], and a thousand other vessels.
金碗三十，次等銀碗四百一十，其他器皿一千：
11 All the gold and silver vessels were five thousand and four hundred, [even] all that went up with Sasabasar from the [place of] transportation, from Babylon to Jerusalem.
一切金銀器皿，共五千四百件。舍市巴匝就帶著這一切與充軍的人，從巴比倫回了耶路撒冷。
