Ezra 8:21-23

21Then I proclaimedH7121 a fastH6685 there, at the riverH5104 AhavaH163, that weH8033 might humble ourselvesH4480 beforeH6440 our GodH430, to seekH1245 of him a straightH3477 wayH1870, for usH5921, and for our littleH2945 onesH2945, and for allH3605 our substance.

22For I was ashamedH954 to askH7592 of the kingH4428 a band of soldiersH2428 and horsemenH6571 to helpH5826 usH5921 againstH5921 the enemyH341 in the wayH1870: becauseH3588 weH3588 had spokenH559 unto the kingH4428, sayingH559, The handH3027 of our GodH430 is uponH5921 allH3605 them that seekH1245 him, for goodH2896; but his powerH3027 and his wrathH639 is againstH5921 allH3605 them that forsakeH5800 him.

23SoH5921 we fastedH6684 and besought our GodH430 for this: and he was entreatedH6279 of usH5921.
