1NowH1571 in the firstH259 yearH8141 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 by the mouthH6310 of JeremiahH3414 might be accomplishedH3615, the LORDH3068 stirredH5782 upH5782 the spiritH7307 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539, that he madeH3605 a proclamationH6963 throughoutH3605 allH3605 his kingdomH4438, and putH3615 it also in writingH4385, sayingH559, 2ThusH3541 saith CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539, AllH3605 the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776 hath the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of heavenH8064, givenH5414 meH5414; and he hath charged meH5414 to buildH1129 him an houseH1004 in JerusalemH3389, whichH834 is in JudahH3063. 3Whosoever there is among youH834 of allH3605 his peopleH5971, his GodH430 be with him, and letH1961 him goH5927 upH5927 to JerusalemH3389, whichH834 is in JudahH3063, and buildH1129 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, (he is GodH430,) whichH834 is in JerusalemH3389. 4And whosoever is leftH7604, in anyH3605 placeH4725 whereH834 he sojourneth, let the menH376 of his placeH4725 help him with silverH3701, and with goldH2091, and with goodsH7399, and with beastsH929, besideH5973 the freewillH5071 offering for the houseH1004 of GodH430 whichH834 is in JerusalemH3389. 5Then roseH6965 upH5927 the headsH7218 of fathers’H1 housesH1004 of JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144, told the priestsH3548, and the LevitesH3881, evenH853 allH3605 whoseH834 spiritH7307 GodH430 had stirredH5782 to goH5927 upH5927 to buildH1129 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 whichH834 is in JerusalemH3389. 6And allH3605 they that were roundH5439 aboutH5439 them strengthenedH2388 their handsH3027 with vesselsH3627 of silverH3701, with goldH2091, with goodsH7399, and with beastsH929, and with preciousH4030 things, besideH5921 allH3605 that was willinglyH5068 offeredH5068. 7Also CyrusH3566 the kingH4428 broughtH3318 forthH3318 the vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, whichH834 NebuchadnezzarH5019 had broughtH3318 forthH3318 outH3318 of JerusalemH3389, and had putH5414 them in the houseH1004 of his godsH430; 8evenH5921 thoseH5921 did CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539 bringH3318 forthH3318 by the handH3027 of MithredathH4990 the treasurerH1489, and numberedH5608 them unto SheshbazzarH8339, the princeH5387 of JudahH3063. 9And this is the numberH4557 of them: thirtyH7970 chargers of goldH2091, a thousandH505 chargers of silverH3701, nineH8672 and twentyH6242 knives; 10thirtyH7970 bowlsH3713 of goldH2091, silverH3701 bowlsH3713 of a secondH4932 sort fourH702 hundredH3967 and tenH6235, and otherH312 vesselsH3627 a thousandH505. 11AllH3605 the vesselsH3627 of goldH2091 and of silverH3701 were fiveH2568 thousandH505 and fourH702 hundredH3967.
