Ezra 5:13-17
13But in the firstH2298 yearH8140 of CyrusH3567 kingH4430 of BabylonH895, CyrusH3567 the kingH4430 madeH7761 a decreeH2942 to build this houseH1005 of GodH426. 14And the goldH1722 and sliver vesselsH3984 also of the houseH1005 of GodH426, whichH1768 NebuchadnezzarH5020 tookH5312 out of the templeH1005 that was in JerusalemH3390, and broughtH2987 them into the templeH1005 of BabylonH895, thoseH1768 did CyrusH3567 the kingH4430 take out of the templeH1005 of BabylonH895, and they were delivered unto one whoseH1768 nameH8036 was SheshbazzarH8340, whomH1768 he had madeH7761 governorH6347; 15and he saidH560 unto him, TakeH5376 theseH412 vesselsH3984, goH236, putH5182 them in the templeH1005 that is in JerusalemH3390, and let the houseH1005 of GodH426 be builded in its placeH870. 16Then cameH858 the same SheshbazzarH8340, and laidH3052 the foundationsH787 of the houseH1005 of GodH426 whichH1768 is in JerusalemH3390: and sinceH1768 that time evenH1768 untilH5705 nowH3705 hath it been in buildingH1124, and yet it is notH3809 completedH8000. 17NowH3705 therefore, ifH2006 it seem good to the kingH4430, letH3705 there be searchH1240 madeH1240 in the king’sH4430 treasureH1596 houseH1005, whichH1768 is there at BabylonH895, whetherH2006 it be soH1768, that a decreeH2942 was madeH1240 of CyrusH3567 the kingH4430 to build this houseH1005 of GodH426 at JerusalemH3390, and letH3705 the kingH4430 sendH7972 his pleasure to us concerning this matter.
