Ezra 7:1-6

11Now after these things, in the reign of 2Artaxerxes king of Persia, Ezra went up to Jerusalem; Ezra was the son of Seraiah, son of Azariah, son of Hilkiah,

2son of Shallum, son of Zadok, son of Ahitub,

3son of Amariah, son of Azariah, son of Meraioth,

4son of Zerahiah, son of Uzzi, son of Bukki,

5son of Abishua, son of Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the chief priest.

6So this Ezra went up from Babylon, and he was a 3scribe skilled in the Law of Moses, which the Lord God of Israel had given; and the king granted him all 4he requested 5because the hand of the Lord his God was upon him.
