See how you translated the very similar sentence in 5:14. If it would be helpful in your language, you could put the verb first in this sentence. Alternate translation: “I hereby return to the Jews the gold and silver objects which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple in Jerusalem and brought to Babylon”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
מָאנֵ֣י & יַהֲתִיב֗וּן
vessels & returned
If it would be helpful in your language, you could say this with an active form, as an imperative. Alternate translation: “return to the Jews the objects of”

מָאנֵ֣י בֵית־אֱלָהָא֮ דִּ֣י דַהֲבָ֣ה וְכַסְפָּא֒

Vessels specifically means the bowls, basins, and other objects listed in 1:9–10. These were used during worship in the temple. Alternate translation: “the gold and silver objects that were used in worship in the temple”

and,brought to,temple,the that in/on/at/with,Jerusalem to,place,its and,put in=house_of the=god
These two phrases mean similar things. Cyrus is saying basically the same thing twice to emphasize how important it is for his officials to carry out this command. If it is confusing for your readers to repeat both phrases, you can combine them and show the emphasis in a different way. Alternate translation: “Make sure that you put these objects back in the temple, right where they belong in the house of God in Jerusalem”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person
וְתַחֵ֖ת בְּבֵ֥ית אֱלָהָֽא
and,put in=house_of the=god
It may be that the sudden change to second person singular you here is because the document is quoting Cyrus's words, which may have been spoken to Sheshbazzar (See 5:14). If this is confusing in your language, you can use the third person. Alternate translation: “So these things must be returned to the house of God”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / quotemarks
וְתַחֵ֖ת בְּבֵ֥ית אֱלָהָֽא

Here the scroll ends its quotation from the decree of Cyrus. If you decided in the middle of 6:3 to mark these words as a quotation within a quotation, you should indicate that ending here with a closing secondary quotation mark or with whatever other punctuation or convention your language uses to indicate the end of a quotation within a quotation.
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / quotemarks
וְתַחֵ֖ת בְּבֵ֥ית אֱלָהָֽא

Here, the text also ends its quotation from the scroll. If you decided at the start of 6:3 to mark its words as a quotation, you should indicate that ending here with a closing primary quotation mark or with whatever other punctuation or convention your language uses to indicate the end of a quotation.
