Adhyāya 1
faaras ke raja kusroo ke pahile varsha men yahova ne faaras ke raja kusroo ka man ubhara ki yahova ka jo vachan yirmayah ke munh se nikala tha vah poora ho jaa, isaaliye us ne apane samast rajy men yah prachar karavaya aur likhva bhee diya:
2 ki faaras ka raja kusroo yon kahata haai : ki svarga ke parameshvar yahova ne prathvee bhr ka rajy mujhe diya haai, aur us ne mujhe agyaa dee, ki yahooda ke yarooshalem men mera aek bhvan banava.
3 usakee samast praja ke logon men se tumhare madhy jo koi ho, usaka parameshvar usake sath rahe, aur vah yahooda ke yarooshalem ko jakar israel ke parameshvar yahova ka bhvan banaae - jo yarooshalem men haai vahee parameshvar haai.
4 aur jo koi kisee sthan men rah gaya ho, jahan vah rahata ho, us sthan ke manushy chandee, sona, dhan aur pashu dekar usakee sahayata karen aur is se adhaik parameshvar ke yarooshalem ke bhvan ke liye apanee apanee ichchha se bhee bhentt chaddhaaen..
5 tab yahooda aur binyameen ke jitane pitaron ke gharanon ke mukhy purooshaen aur yajakon or leviyon ka man parameshvar ne ubhara tha ki jakar yarooshalem men yahova ke bhvan ko banaae, ve sab utt khde hue
6 aur unake asapas sab rahanevalon ne chandee ke patra, sona, dhan, pashu aur anamol vastuaen dekar, unakee sahayata kee yah un sab se adhaik tha, jo logon ne apanee apanee ichchha se diya.
7 fir yahova ne bhvan ke jo patra nabookadanessar ne yarooshalem se nikalakar apane devata ke bhvan men rakhe the,
8 unako kusroo raja ne, mitoodan khjanchee se nikalava kar, yahoodiyon ke shoshabassar nam pradhaan ko ginakar saunp diya.
9 unakee ginatee yah thee, arthata sone ke tees aur chandee ke ek hajar parat aur unatees chhuree,
10 sone ke tees aur maghyam prakar ke chandee ke char sau das kattore tatha aur prakar ke patra aek hajara.
11 sone chandee ke patra sab milakar panch hajar char sau the. in sabhon ko shoshabassar us samay le aya jab bandhauae babel se yarooshalem ko aae..
