Ezra 1
King James Version
1 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremiah might be fulfilled, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,
2 Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, The Lord God of heaven hath given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he hath charged me to build him an house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
3 Who is there among you of all his people? his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of the Lord God of Israel, (he is the God,) which is in Jerusalem.
4 And whosoever remaineth in any place where he sojourneth, let the men of his place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts, beside the freewill offering for the house of God that is in Jerusalem.
5 Then rose up the chief of the fathers of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests, and the Levites, with all them whose spirit God had raised, to go up to build the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem.
6 And all they that were about them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, beside all that was willingly offered.
7 Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the house of the Lord, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth out of Jerusalem, and had put them in the house of his gods;
8 Even those did Cyrus king of Persia bring forth by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and numbered them unto Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah.
9 And this is the number of them: thirty chargers of gold, a thousand chargers of silver, nine and twenty knives,
10 Thirty basons of gold, silver basons of a second sort four hundred and ten, and other vessels a thousand.
11 All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand and four hundred. All these did Sheshbazzar bring up with them of the captivity that were brought up from Babylon unto Jerusalem.

El decreto de Ciro(A)
1 En el primer año de Ciro, rey de Persia, para que se cumpliera la palabra de Jehová anunciada por boca de Jeremías, despertó Jehová el espíritu de Ciro, rey de Persia, el cual hizo pregonar de palabra y también por escrito en todo su reino, este decreto:
2 «Así ha dicho Ciro, rey de Persia: Jehová, el Dios de los cielos, me ha dado todos los reinos de la tierra y me ha mandado que le edifique una casa en Jerusalén, que está en Judá. 3 Quien de entre vosotros pertenezca a su pueblo, sea Dios con él, suba a Jerusalén, que está en Judá, y edifique la casa a Jehová, Dios de Israel (él es el Dios), la cual está en Jerusalén. 4 Y a todo el que haya quedado, en cualquier lugar donde habite, que las gentes de su lugar lo ayuden con plata, oro, bienes y ganados, además de ofrendas voluntarias para la casa de Dios, la cual está en Jerusalén.»
El regreso a Jerusalén
5 Entonces se levantaron los jefes de las casas paternas de Judá y de Benjamín, los sacerdotes y levitas, todos aquellos a quienes Dios puso en su corazón subir a edificar la casa de Jehová, la cual está en Jerusalén. 6 Y todos los que habitaban en los alrededores los ayudaron con plata y oro, con bienes y ganado, y con cosas preciosas, además de toda clase de ofrendas voluntarias. 7 El rey Ciro sacó los utensilios de la casa de Jehová que Nabucodonosor se había llevado de Jerusalén y había depositado en la casa de sus dioses. 8 Los sacó, pues, Ciro, rey de Persia, por medio del tesorero Mitrídates, el cual los contó y se los entregó a Sesbasar, príncipe de Judá. 9 La cuenta de ellos es ésta: treinta tazones de oro, mil tazones de plata, veintinueve cuchillos, 10 treinta tazas de oro, otras cuatrocientas diez tazas de plata, y otros mil utensilios. 11 En total, los utensilios de oro y de plata eran cinco mil cuatrocientos. Todo esto lo hizo llevar Sesbasar con los que subieron del cautiverio de Babilonia a Jerusalén.

End of the Babylonian Captivity(A)
1 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the Lord (B)by the mouth of Jeremiah might be fulfilled, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, (C)so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and also put it in writing, saying,
2 Thus says Cyrus king of Persia:
All the kingdoms of the earth the Lord God of heaven has given me. And He has (D)commanded me to build Him a [a]house at Jerusalem which is in Judah. 3 Who 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 the Lord God of Israel (E)(He is God), which is in Jerusalem. 4 And whoever is left in any place where he dwells, let the men of his place help him with silver and gold, with goods and livestock, besides the freewill offerings for the house of God which is in Jerusalem.
5 Then the heads of the fathers’ houses of Judah and Benjamin, and the priests and the Levites, with all whose spirits (F)God [b]had moved, arose to go up and build the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem. 6 And all those who were around them [c]encouraged them with articles of silver and gold, with goods and livestock, and with precious things, besides all that was (G)willingly offered.
7 (H)King Cyrus also brought out the articles of the house of the Lord, (I)which Nebuchadnezzar had taken from Jerusalem and put in the [d]temple of his gods; 8 and Cyrus king of Persia brought them out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and counted them out to (J)Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah. 9 This is the number of them: thirty gold platters, one thousand silver platters, twenty-nine knives, 10 thirty gold basins, four hundred and ten silver basins of a similar kind, and one thousand other articles. 11 All the articles of gold and silver were five thousand four hundred. All these Sheshbazzar took with the captives who were brought from Babylon to Jerusalem.
