Ezra 6:16-22

16And the sons of Israel, the priests, the Levites and the rest of the 1exiles, 2celebrated the dedication of this house of God with joy. 17They offered for the dedication of this temple of God 100 bulls, 200 rams, 400 lambs, and as a sin offering for all Israel 312 male goats, corresponding to the number of the tribes of Israel. 18Then they appointed the priests to 4their divisions and the Levites in 5their orders for the service of God 6in Jerusalem, 7as it is written in the book of Moses.

198The exiles observed the Passover on 9the fourteenth of the first month. 2010For the priests and the Levites had purified themselves together; all of them were pure. Then 11they slaughtered the Passover lamb for all the exiles, both for their brothers the priests and for themselves. 21The sons of Israel who returned from exile and 12all those who had separated themselves from 13the impurity of the nations of the land to join them, to seek the Lord God of Israel, ate the Passover. 22And 14they observed the Feast of Unleavened Bread seven days with joy, for the Lord had caused them to rejoice, and 15had turned the heart of 16the king of Assyria toward them to 17encourage them in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel.
