Ezra 8:24-34

24Then I set apartH914 twelveH8147H6240 of the leadingH8269 priestsH3548, together with SherebiahH8274, HashabiahH2811, andH5973 tenH6235 of their brothersH251, 25and I weighed outH8254 to them the contributionH8641 of silverH3701 andH853 goldH2091 andH853 the articlesH3627 that the kingH4428, his counselorsH3289, his leadersH8269, and allH3605 the IsraelitesH3478 thereH4672 had offeredH7311 for the houseH1004 of our GodH430.

26I weighed outH8254 intoH5921 their handsH3027 650H8337H3967H2572 talentsH3603 of silverH3701,1 articlesH3627 of silverH3701 weighing 100H3967 talentsH3603,2 100H3967 talentsH3603 of goldH2091,3 2720H6242 goldH2091 bowlsH3713 valued at 1,000H505 daricsH150,4 and twoH8147 articlesH3627 of fineH2896 polishedH6668 bronzeH5178, as precious asH2530 goldH2091.

28Then I toldH559 themH413, “YouH859 are holyH6944 to the LORDH3068, and these articlesH3627 are holyH6944. The silverH3701 and goldH2091 are a freewill offeringH5071 to the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of your fathersH1. 29Guard themH8245 carefullyH8104 untilH5704 you weigh them outH8254 in the chambersH3957 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 in JerusalemH3389 beforeH6440 the leadingH8269 priestsH3548, LevitesH3881, and headsH8269 of the IsraeliteH3478 familiesH1.”

30So the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881 took charge ofH6901 the silverH3701 and goldH2091 and sacred articlesH3627 that had been weighed outH4948 to be takenH935 to the houseH1004 of our GodH430 in JerusalemH3389.

31On the twelfthH8147H6240 day of the firstH7223 monthH2320 we set outH5265 from the AhavaH163 CanalH5104 to goH1980 to JerusalemH3389, and the handH3027 of our GodH430 wasH1961 upon usH5921 to protect usH5337 from the handsH3709 of the enemiesH341 and banditsH693 alongH5921 the wayH1870.

32So we arrivedH935 at JerusalemH3389 and restedH3427 thereH8033 for threeH7969 daysH3117.

33On the fourthH7243 dayH3117, in the houseH1004 of our GodH430, we weighed outH8254 the silverH3701 and goldH2091 and sacred articlesH3627 intoH5921 the handH3027 of MeremothH4822 sonH1121 of UriahH223, the priestH3548. EleazarH499 sonH1121 of PhinehasH6372 was with himH5973, along withH5973 the LevitesH3881 JozabadH3107 sonH1121 of JeshuaH3442 and NoadiahH5129 sonH1121 of BinnuiH1131. 34EverythingH3605 was verified by numberH4557 and weightH4948, and the totalH3605 weightH4948 was recordedH3789 at thatH1931 timeH6256.
