Ezra 7:20-24
20And whatever more shall be needful for the house of thy 1God which thou shalt have occasion to bestow, bestow it out of the king's treasure house.
21And I, I Artaxerxes the king, do give orders to all the treasurers that are beyond the river, that whatever Ezra the priest and scribe of the law of the 2God of the heavens shall require of you, it be done diligently,
22unto a hundred talents of silver, and to a hundred measures of wheat, and to a hundred baths of wine, and to a hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing [how much].
23Whatever is commanded by the 3God of the heavens, let it be carefully done for the house of the 4God of the heavens; for why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons?
24Also we inform you, as regards all the priests and Levites, singers, doorkeepers, Nethinim, and ministers of this house of 5God, it shall not be lawful to impose tribute, tax, and toll upon them.
