¹[Ny teny nataon'i Kyrosy nandefasana ny Jiosy hody, sy ny nanomezany azy ny fanaka avy tao amin'ny tempoly] Ary tamin'ny taona voalohany nanjakan'i Kyrosy, mpanjakan'i Persia, dia notairin'i Jehovah ny fanahin'i Kyrosy, mpanjakan'i Persia, mba hanatanteraka ny tenin'i Jehovah izay nampilazainy an'i Jeremia, ka dia nandefa teny eran'ny fanjakany rehetra izy, sady nataony an-tsoratra koa izany hoe:

¹Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of Yahweh “Yahweh” is God’s proper Name, sometimes rendered “LORD” (all caps) in other translations. by the mouth of Jeremiah 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,

²Izao no lazain'i Kyrosy, mpanjakan'i Persia: Ny fanjakana rehetra ambonin'ny tany dia efa nomen'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny lanitra, ahy; ary Izy efa nandidy ahy hanao trano ho Azy any Jerosalema izay any Joda.

²“Thus says Cyrus king of Persia, ‘Yahweh, the God The Hebrew word rendered “God” is “Elohim.” 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.

³Koa iza avy moa aminareo rehetra no olony? Andriamaniny anie homba azy, fa aoka hiakatra any Jerosalema izay any Joda izy ka hanao ny tranon'i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, Izy no Andriamanitra Izay any Jerosalema.

³Whoever 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.

⁴Ary na iza na iza sisa tratra, dia aoka ny tompon-tany ao amin'izay ivahiniany hanome azy volafotsy sy volamena sy fanaka ary biby fiompy mbamin'ny fanati-tsitrapo ho an'ny tranon'Andriamanitra, izay any Jerosalema.

⁴Whoever 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, besides the freewill offering for God’s house which is in Jerusalem.’”

⁵Dia niainga ny lohan'ny firenen'i Joda sy Benjamina sy ny mpisorona sy ny Levita, dia izay rehetra efa namporisihin'Andriamanitra hiakatra hanao ny tranon'i Jehovah any Jerosalema.

⁵Then the heads of fathers’ households of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, even all whose spirit God had stirred to go up rose up to build the house of Yahweh which is in Jerusalem.

⁶Ary izay rehetra manodidina dia nampahery ny tànan'ireo tamin'ny fanaka volafotsy sy volamena sy fanaka hafa sy biby fiompy ary zava-tsoa mbamin'izay rehetra nateriny tamin'ny sitrapo.

⁶All those who were around them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with animals, and with precious things, besides all that was willingly offered.

⁷Dia navoak'i Kyrosy mpanjaka ny fanaky ny tranon'i Jehovah, izay efa nalain'i Nebokadnezara tany Jerosalema ka efa nataony tao an-tranon'ireo andriamaniny.

⁷Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the house of Yahweh, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought out of Jerusalem, and had put in the house of his gods;

⁸Ary Mitredata, mpitahiry ny haren'ny fanjakana, dia nasain'i Kyrosy, mpanjakan'i Persia; namoaka ireny, ka nisainy sady natolony an'i Sesbazara, lehiben'ny firenen'i Joda.

⁸even those, Cyrus king of Persia brought out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them to Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah.

⁹Ary izao no isany: Lovia volamena telo-polo, lovia volafotsy arivo, antsy sivy amby roa-polo,

⁹This is the number of them: thirty platters of gold, one thousand platters of silver, twenty-nine knives,

¹⁰kapoaka volamena misarona telo-polo, lovia volafotsy manarakaraka folo amby efa-jato, ary lovia hafa koa arivo;efa-jato amby dimy arivo no isan'ny fanaka volamena sy volafotsy rehetra. Ireo rehetra ireo dia nentin'i Sesbazara niaraka nankany Jerosalema tamin'ny babo izay niverina avy tany Babylona.

¹⁰thirty bowls of gold, silver bowls of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels one thousand.

¹¹efa-jato amby dimy arivo no isan'ny fanaka volamena sy volafotsy rehetra. Ireo rehetra ireo dia nentin'i Sesbazara niaraka nankany Jerosalema tamin'ny babo izay niverina avy tany Babylona.
