1 Entonces el rey Darío ordenó investigar en los archivos de la tesorería de Babilonia, que era donde se guardaban los archivos.
1 Then Darius the king made a decree, and the house of the archives, where the treasures were laid up in Babylon, was searched.
2 Y se halló en el palacio de Ecbatana, en la provincia de Media, un rollo en el cual estaba escrito lo siguiente:
2 A scroll was found at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of Media, and in it this was written for a record:
3 Primer año del reinado de Ciro. En cuanto al templo de Dios en Jerusalén, el rey Ciro decreta: Que se echen los cimientos y se reconstruya el templo para que los judíos puedan ofrecer los sacrificios. La altura será de veintisiete metros, y el ancho será de veintisiete metros.
3 In the first year of Cyrus the king, Cyrus the king made a decree: Concerning God’s house at Jerusalem, let the house be built, the place where they offer sacrifices, and let its foundations be strongly laid, with its height sixty cubits and its width sixty cubits;
4 Tendrá tres hileras de piedra en los cimientos y una hilera de madera nueva. Todos los gastos los pagará el rey.
4 with three courses of great stones and a course of new timber. Let the expenses be given out of the king’s house.
5 Los utensilios de plata y de oro, que Nabucodonosor sacó del templo de Dios, serán devueltos a Jerusalén y serán puestos en el templo, donde estaban antes.
5 Also let the gold and silver vessels of God’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple which is at Jerusalem and brought to Babylon, be restored and brought again to the temple which is at Jerusalem, everything to its place. You shall put them in God’s house.
6 Entonces el rey Darío envió este mensaje al gobernador Tatenay, a Setar Bosnay y a los demás funcionarios de la región occidental del Éufrates: Salgan de Jerusalén
6 Now therefore, Tattenai, governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and your companions the Apharsachites, who are beyond the River, you must stay far from there.
7 y dejen que el gobernador de Judá y los jefes de Judá sigan reconstruyendo este templo en el mismo lugar donde estaba antes.
7 Leave the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God in its place.
8 Aún más, decreto que ustedes deben pagar, sin tardanza, todos los gastos de construcción, tomando el dinero de los impuestos recolectados en su territorio.
8 Moreover I make a decree regarding what you shall do for these elders of the Jews for the building of this house of God: that of the king’s goods, even of the tribute beyond the River, expenses must be given with all diligence to these men, that they not be hindered.
9 Además, cada día, deberán darles becerros, carneros, y corderos para los holocaustos al Dios del cielo. También les darán trigo, vino, sal, aceite de oliva y todo cuanto los sacerdotes les soliciten.
9 That which they have need of, including young bulls, rams, and lambs, for burnt offerings to the God of heaven; also wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the word of the priests who are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail,
10 Así los judíos podrán ofrecer sacrificios aceptables al Dios del cielo, y orar por mí y por mis hijos.
10 that they may offer sacrifices of pleasant aroma to the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king and of his sons.
11 Si alguien intenta alterar este decreto de alguna manera, se quitará un madero de su casa, y con él se construirá una horca en la cual será colgado. Y su casa será reducida a escombros.
11 I have also made a decree that whoever alters this message, let a beam be pulled out from his house, and let him be lifted up and fastened on it; and let his house be made a dunghill for this.
12 El Dios que ha escogido la ciudad de Jerusalén destruirá a cualquier nación que altere este mandamiento y destruya este templo. Yo, Darío, he promulgado este decreto. Por lo tanto, debe cumplirse con toda diligencia.
12 May the God who has caused his name to dwell there overthrow all kings and peoples who stretch out their hand to alter this, to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree. Let it be done with all diligence.
13 Por eso, el gobernador Tatenay, Setar Bosnay y sus compañeros cumplieron inmediatamente el mandato del rey Darío.
13 Then Tattenai, the governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and their companions did accordingly with all diligence, because Darius the king had sent a decree.
14 Así que los jefes de los judíos continuaron su trabajo y terminaron la reconstrucción, de acuerdo con la palabra de Dios dada por medio de los profetas Hageo y Zacarías hijo de Idó. Gracias al mandato de Dios y a los decretos de Ciro, Darío y Artajerjes, reyes de Persia, los judíos pudieron terminar la reconstrucción.
14 The elders of the Jews built and prospered, through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. They built and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the decree of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.
15 El templo fue terminado el día tres del mes de Adar, en el sexto año del reinado del rey Darío,
15 This house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
16 y fue entonces dedicado con gran gozo por los sacerdotes, los levitas y todos los que habían regresado del cautiverio.
16 The children of Israel, the priests, the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy.
17 Durante la celebración de la dedicación se ofrecieron en sacrificio cien becerros, doscientos carneros, y cuatrocientos corderos. Además, como ofrenda por el pecado, se ofrecieron doce chivos, uno por cada una de las tribus de Israel.
17 They offered at the dedication of this house of God one hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve male goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
18 Los sacerdotes y levitas fueron instalados en sus diversos cargos, para hacer la obra de Dios, tal como está establecido en las leyes de Moisés.
18 They set the priests in their divisions and the Levites in their courses, for the service of God which is at Jerusalem, as it is written in the book of Moses.
19 También celebraron la fiesta de la Pascua el día catorce del mes primero.
19 The children of the captivity kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
20 Para esa fecha, los sacerdotes y levitas ya se habían purificado, y ofrecieron los sacrificios por el pueblo, por sus compañeros sacerdotes y por ellos mismos.
20 Because the priests and the Levites had purified themselves together, all of them were pure. They killed the Passover for all the children of the captivity, for their brothers the priests, and for themselves.
21 Los judíos que habían regresado de la cautividad en Babilonia celebraron la Pascua. También se les unieron aquellos que vivían entre ellos, y que habían abandonado las costumbres perversas de los pueblos vecinos, y habían decidido adorar al Señor, Dios de Israel. La celebración de la fiesta de los Panes sin levadura duró siete días. La festejaron con mucho júbilo, porque el Señor les había llenado de alegría al permitir que el rey de Asiria los tratara con tanta benevolencia y les hubiera ayudado a reconstruir el templo del Dios de Israel.
21 The children of Israel who had returned out of the captivity, and all who had separated themselves to them from the filthiness of the nations of the land to seek Yahweh, the God of Israel, ate,
22 Not in this translation
22 and kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy; because Yahweh had made them joyful, and had turned the heart of the king of Assyria to them, to strengthen their hands in the work of God, the God of Israel’s house.
