5and had preparedH6213 for Tobiah a largeH1419 roomH3957 whereH8033H1961 they had previouslyH6440 storedH5414 the grain offeringsH4503, the frankincenseH3828, the temple articlesH3627, and the tithesH4643 of grainH1715, new wineH8492, and oilH3323 prescribedH4687 for the LevitesH3881, singersH7891, and gatekeepersH7778, along with the contributionsH8641 for the priestsH3548.
6While allH3605 thisH2088 was happeningH1961, I was notH3808 in JerusalemH3389, becauseH3588 I had returnedH935 toH413 ArtaxerxesH783 kingH4428 of BabylonH8941 in the thirty-secondH7970H8147 yearH8141 of his reignH4428. Some time laterH7093H3117 I obtained leaveH7592 fromH4480 the kingH4428
