31Then we departedH5265 from the riverH5104 AhavaH163 on the twelfth day of the firstH7223 monthH2320, to go unto JerusalemH3389: and the handH3027 of our GodH430 wasH1961 upon us, and he deliveredH5337 us from the handH3027 of the enemyH341 and the lier-in-wait by the wayH1870. 32And we cameH935 to JerusalemH3389, and abode there threeH7969 daysH3117. 33And on the fourthH7243 dayH3117 the silverH3701 and the goldH2091 and the vesselsH3627 were weighedH8254 in the houseH1004 of our GodH430 into the handH3027 of MeremothH4822 the sonH1121 of UriahH223 the priestH3548 (and with him was EleazarH499 the sonH1121 of PhinehasH6372; and with them was JozabadH3107 the sonH1121 of JeshuaH3442, and NoadiahH5129 the sonH1121 of BinnuiH1131, the LevitesH3881)— 34the whole by numberH4557 and by weightH4948: and all the weightH4948 was writtenH3789 at that timeH6256.

35The children of the captivityH7628, that were comeH935 out of exileH1473, offered burnt-offerings unto the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, twelve bullocks for all IsraelH3478, ninetyH8673 and sixH8337 ramsH352, seventyH7657 and sevenH7651 lambsH3532, twelve he-goats for a sin-offering: all this was a burnt-offering unto Jehovah. 36And they delivered the king’sH4428 commissions unto the king’sH4428 satrapsH323, and to the governorsH6346 beyond the RiverH5104: and they furthered the peopleH5971 and the houseH1004 of GodH430.
