Ezra 1:2-6

2ThusH3541 saysH559 CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539: All the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 has Jehovah the 1GodH430 of the heavensH8064 givenH5414 to me, and he has charged me to buildH1129 him a houseH1004 at JerusalemH3389, which is in JudahH3063.

3Whosoever there is among you of all his peopleH5971, his 2GodH430 beH1961 with him, and let him goH5927 up to JerusalemH3389, which is in JudahH3063, and buildH1129 the houseH1004 of Jehovah the 3GodH430 of IsraelH3478 — he is 4GodH430 — which is at JerusalemH3389.

4And whosoever remainsH7604 in any placeH4725 whereH834 he sojourns, let the menH376 of his placeH4725 help him with silverH3701, and with goldH2091, and with goods, and with beasts, besides the voluntary offeringH5071 for the houseH1004 of 5GodH430 which is at JerusalemH3389.

5And the chiefH7218 fathersH1 of JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144 roseH6965 up, and the priestsH3548, and the LevitesH3881, even all those whose spiritH7307 6GodH430 had stirredH5782, to goH5927 up to buildH1129 the houseH1004 of Jehovah which is at JerusalemH3389.

6And all they that were about them strengthenedH2388 their handsH3027 with articlesH3627 of silverH3701, with goldH2091, with goods, and with beasts, and with preciousH4030 things, besides all that was willingly offeredH5068.
