6这 以斯拉 从 巴比伦 上来,他是敏捷的文士,通达耶和华— 以色列 神所赐 摩西 的律法书。王允准他一切所求的,是因耶和华—他 神的手帮助他。
6This Esdras went up from Babylon, and he was a ready scribe in the law of Moses, which the Lord God had given to Israel: and the king granted him all his request, according to the hand of the Lord his God upon him.
7亚达薛西 王第七年, 以色列 人、祭司、 利未 人、歌唱的、守门的、尼提宁,有上 耶路撒冷 的。
7And there went up some of the children of Israel, and of the children of the priests, and of the children of the Levites, and of the singing men, and of the porters, and of the Nathinites to Jerusalem in the seventh year of Artaxerxes the king.
8王第七年五月, 以斯拉 到了 耶路撒冷 。
8And they came to Jerusalem in the fifth month, in the seventh year of the king.
9正月初一日,他从 巴比伦 起程;因他 神施恩的手帮助他,五月初一日就到了 耶路撒冷 。
9For upon the first day of the first month he began to go up from Babylon, and on the first day of the fifth month he came to Jerusalem according to the good hand of his God upon him.
10以斯拉 定志考究遵行耶和华的律法,又将律例典章教训 以色列 人。
10For Esdras had prepared his heart to seek the law of the Lord, and to do and to teach in Israel the commandments and judgment.
11祭司 以斯拉 是通达耶和华诫命和赐 以色列 之律例的文士。 亚达薛西 王赐给他们谕旨,上面写着说:
11And this is the copy of the letter of the edict, which king Artaxerxes gave to Esdras the priest, the scribe instructed in the words and commandments of the Lord, and his ceremonies in Israel.
12「诸王之王 亚达薛西 ,达于祭司 以斯拉 通达天上 神律法大德的文士,云云。
12Artaxerxes king of kings to Esdras the priest, the most learned scribe of the law of the God of heaven, greeting.
13住在我国中的 以色列 人、祭司、 利未 人,凡甘心上 耶路撒冷 去的,我降旨准他们与你同去。
13It is decreed by me, that all they of the people of Israel, and of the priests and of the Levites in my realm, that are minded to go into Jerusalem, should go with thee.
14王与七个谋士既然差你去,照你手中 神的律法书察问 犹大 和 耶路撒冷 的景况;
14For thou art sent from before the king, and his seven counsellors, to visit Judea and Jerusalem according to the law of thy God, which is in thy hand.
15又带金银,就是王和谋士甘心献给住 耶路撒冷 、 以色列 神的,
15And to carry the silver and gold, which the king and his counsellors have freely offered to the God of Israel, whose tabernacle is in Jerusalem.
16并带你在 巴比伦 全省所得的金银,和百姓、祭司乐意献给 耶路撒冷 —他们 神殿的礼物。
16And all the silver and gold that thou shalt find in all the province of Babylon, and that the people is willing to offer, and that the priests shall offer of their own accord to the house of their God, which is in Jerusalem,
17所以你当用这金银,急速买公牛、公绵羊、绵羊羔,和同献的素祭奠祭之物,献在 耶路撒冷 —你们 神殿的坛上。
17Take freely, and buy diligently with this money, calves, rams, lambs, with the sacrifices and libations of them, and offer them upon the altar of the temple of your God, that is in Jerusalem.
18剩下的金银,你和你的弟兄看着怎样好,就怎样用,总要遵着你们 神的旨意。
18And if it seem good to thee, and to thy brethren to do any thing with the rest of the silver and gold, do it according to the will of your God.
19所交给你 神殿中使用的器皿,你要交在 耶路撒冷 神面前。
19The vessels also, that are given thee for the sacrifice of the house of thy God, deliver thou in the sight of God in Jerusalem.
20你 神殿里若再有需用的经费,你可以从王的府库里支取。
20And whatsoever more there shall be need of for the house of thy God, how much soever thou shalt have occasion to spend, it shall be given out of the treasury, and the king’s exchequer, and by me.
21「我— 亚达薛西 王又降旨与 河西 的一切库官,说:『通达天上 神律法的文士祭司 以斯拉 ,无论向你们要什么,你们要速速地备办,
21I Artaxerxes the king have ordered and decreed to all the keepers of the public chest, that are beyond the river, that whatsoever Esdras the priest, the scribe of the law of the God of heaven, shall require of you, you give it without delay,
22就是银子直到一百他连得,麦子一百柯珥,酒一百罢特,油一百罢特,盐不计其数,也要给他。
22Unto a hundred talents of silver, and unto a hundred cores of wheat, and unto a hundred bates of wine, and unto a hundred bates of oil, and salt without measure.
23凡天上之 神所吩咐的,当为天上 神的殿详细办理。为何使忿怒临到王和王众子的国呢?
23All that belongeth to the rites of the God of heaven, let it be given diligently in the house of the God of heaven: lest his wrath should be enkindled against the realm of the king, and of his sons.
24我又晓谕你们,至于祭司、 利未 人、歌唱的、守门的,和尼提宁,并在 神殿当差的人,不可叫他们进贡,交课,纳税。』
24We give you also to understand concerning all the priests, and the Levites, and the singers, and the porters, and the Nathinites, and ministers of the house of this God, that you have no authority to impose toll or tribute, or custom upon them.
25「 以斯拉 啊,要照着你 神赐你的智慧,将所有明白你 神律法的人立为士师、审判官,治理 河西 的百姓,使他们教训一切不明白 神 律法的人。
25And thou Esdras according to the wisdom of thy God, which is in thy hand, appoint judges and magistrates, that may judge all the people, that is beyond the river, that is, for them who know the law of thy God, yea and the ignorant teach ye freely.
26凡不遵行你 神律法和王命令的人就当速速定他的罪,或治死,或充军,或抄家,或囚禁。」
26And whosoever will not do the law of thy God, and the law of the king diligently, judgment shall be executed upon him, either unto death, or unto banishment, or to the confiscation of goods, or at least to prison.
27以斯拉 说:「耶和华—我们列祖的 神是应当称颂的!因他使王起这心意修饰 耶路撒冷 耶和华的殿,
27Blessed be the Lord the God of our fathers, who hath put this in the king’s heart, to glorify the house of the Lord, which is in Jerusalem,
28又在王和谋士,并大能的军长面前施恩于我。因耶和华—我 神的手帮助我,我就得以坚强,从 以色列 中招聚首领,与我一同上来。」
28And hath inclined his mercy toward me before the king and his counsellors, and all the mighty princes of the king: and I being strengthened by the hand of the Lord my God, which was upon me, gathered together out of Israel chief men to go up with me.
