Ezra 5:13-17

13But in the first year of Cyrus king of Babylon, king Cyrus gave orders to build this house of 1God. 14And the vessels also of gold and silver of the house of 2God, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple that was at Jerusalem and brought into the temple of Babylon, those did king Cyrus take out of the temple of Babylon, and they were delivered to one Sheshbazzar by name, whom he had appointed governor. 15And he said to him, Take these vessels, go, carry them into the temple that is at Jerusalem, and let the house of 3God be built in its place. 16Then came the same Sheshbazzar, [and] laid the foundation of the house of 4God which is at Jerusalem; and since that time even until now has it been in building, and it is not completed. 17And now, if it seem good to the king, let search be made in the king's treasure-house, which is there at Babylon, whether it be so, that orders were given by king Cyrus to build this house of 5God at Jerusalem; and let the king send his pleasure to us concerning this matter.
