25And thouH607, EzraH5831, after the wisdomH2452 of thy GodH426, that is in thy handH3028, setH4483 magistratesH8200 and judgesH1782, who may judgeH1934H1778 allH3606 the peopleH5972 that are beyondH5675 the riverH5103, allH3606 such as knowH3046 the lawsH1882 of thy GodH426; and teachH3046 ye them that knowH3046 them notH3809. 26And whoeverH3606 will notH3809 doH1934H5648 the lawH1882 of thy GodH426, and the lawH1882 of the kingH4430, let judgmentH1780 beH1934 executedH5648 speedilyH629 upon himH4481, whetherH2006 it be to deathH4193, orH2006 to banishmentH8332, orH2006 to confiscationH6065 of goodsH5232, or to imprisonmentH613.1

27BlessedH1288be the LORDH3068 GodH430 of our fathersH1, who hath putH5414 such a thing as this in the king’sH4428 heartH3820, to beautifyH6286 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 which is in JerusalemH3389: 28And hath extendedH5186 mercyH2617 to me beforeH6440 the kingH4428, and his counsellorsH3289, and before all the king’sH4428 mightyH1368 princesH8269. And I was strengthenedH2388 as the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 my GodH430 was upon me, and I gatheredH6908 out of IsraelH3478 chief menH7218 to go upH5927 with me.
