[1] Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that Yahweh’s§ word by Jeremiah’s mouth might be accomplished, Yahweh stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying, [2] “Cyrus king of Persia says, ‘Yahweh, the God§ of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he has commanded me to build him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. [3] Whoever there is among you of all his people, may his God be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, which is in Judah, and build the house of Yahweh, the God of Israel (he is God), which is in Jerusalem. [4] Whoever is left, in any place where he lives, let the men of his place help him with silver, with gold, with goods, and with animals, in addition to the free will offering for God’s house which is in Jerusalem.’” [5] Then the heads of fathers’ households of Judah and Benjamin, the priests and the Levites, all whose spirit God had stirred to go up, rose up to build Yahweh’s house which is in Jerusalem. [6] All those who were around them strengthened their hands with vessels of silver, with gold, with goods, with animals, and with precious things, in addition to all that was willingly offered. [7] Also Cyrus the king brought out the vessels of Yahweh’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought out of Jerusalem, and had put in the house of his gods; [8] even those, Cyrus king of Persia brought out by the hand of Mithredath the treasurer, and counted them out to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah. [9] This is the number of them: thirty platters of gold, one thousand platters of silver, twenty-nine knives, [10] thirty bowls of gold, four hundred ten silver bowls of a second kind, and one thousand other vessels. [11] All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand four hundred. Sheshbazzar brought all these up when the captives were brought up from Babylon to Jerusalem.

[1] Now in the first H259 year H8141 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia, H6539 that the word H1697 of the Lord H3068 by the mouth H6310 of Jeremiah H3414 might be fulfilled, H3615 the Lord H3068 stirred up H5782 H853 the spirit H7307 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia, H6539 that he made a proclamation H5674 H6963 throughout all his kingdom, H4438 and put it also in writing, H4385 saying, H559 [2] Thus H3541 saith H559 Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia, H6539 The Lord H3068 God H430 of heaven H8064 hath given H5414 me all the kingdoms H4467 of the earth; H776 and he hath charged H6485 me to build H1129 him an house H1004 at Jerusalem, H3389 which is in Judah. H3063 [3] Who is there among you of all his people? H5971 his God H430 be with him, and let him go up H5927 to Jerusalem, H3389 which is in Judah, H3063 and build H1129 H853 the house H1004 of the Lord H3068 God H430 of Israel, H3478 (he is the God,) H430 which is in Jerusalem. H3389 [4] And whosoever remaineth H7604 in any place H4725 where H834 he sojourneth, H1481 let the men H582 of his place H4725 help H5375 him§ with silver, H3701 and with gold, H2091 and with goods, H7399 and with beasts, H929 beside the freewill offering H5071 for the house H1004 of God H430 that is in Jerusalem.

H3389 [6] And all they that were about H5439 them strengthened H2388 their hands H3027ⓘ with vessels H3627 of silver, H3701 with gold, H2091 with goods, H7399 and with beasts, H929 and with precious things, H4030 beside all that was willingly offered. H5068 [7] Also Cyrus H3566 the king H4428 brought forth H3318 H853 the vessels H3627 of the house H1004 of the Lord, H3068 which H834 Nebuchadnezzar H5019 had brought forth H3318 out of Jerusalem, H3389 and had put H5414 them in the house H1004 of his gods; H430 [8] even those did Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539 bring forth H3318 by the hand H3027 of Mithredath H4990 the treasurer, H1489 and numbered H5608 them unto Sheshbazzar, H8339 the prince H5387 of Judah. H3063 [9] And this is the number H4557 of them: thirty H7970 chargers H105 of gold, H2091 a thousand H505 chargers H105 of silver, H3701 nine H8672 and twenty H6242 knives, H4252 [10] thirty H7970 basons H3713 of gold, H2091 silver H3701 basons H3713 of a second H4932 sort four H702 hundred H3967 and ten, H6235 and other H312 vessels H3627 a thousand.

H3967 All these did Sheshbazzar H8339 bring up H5927 with them of the captivity§ H1473 that were brought up H5927 from Babylon H894 unto Jerusalem. H3389
