1 H259 Now in the first H8141 year H3566 of Cyrus H4428 king H6539 of Persia, H1697 that the word H3068 of the Lord H6310 by the mouth H3414 of Jeremiah H3615 might be fulfilled, H3068 the Lord H5782 stirred up H7307 the spirit H3566 of Cyrus H4428 king H6539 of Persia, H5674 that he made a proclamation H4438 throughout all his kingdom, H4385 and put it also in writing, H559 saying,

2 H559 Thus says H3566 Cyrus H4428 king H6539 of Persia, H3068 The Lord H430 God H8064 of heaven H5414 has given H4467 me all the kingdoms H776 of the earth; H6485 and he has commanded H1129 me to build H1004 him a house H3389 at Jerusalem, H3063 which is in Judah.

3 H5971 Who is there among you of all his people? H430 his God H5927 be with him, and let him go up H3389 to Jerusalem, H3063 which is in Judah, H1129 and build H1004 the house H3068 of the Lord H430 God H3478 of Israel, H430 (he is the God,) H3389 which is in Jerusalem.

4 H7604 And whoever remains H4725 in any place H1481 where he stays, H582 let the men H4725 of his place H5375 help H3701 him with silver, H2091 and with gold, H7399 and with goods, H929 and with animals, H5071 beside the freewill offering H1004 for the house H430 of God H3389 that is in Jerusalem.

5 H6965 Then rose up H7218 the chief H1 of the fathers H3063 of Judah H1144 and Benjamin, H3548 and the priests, H3881 and the Levites, H7307 with all them whose spirit H430 God H5782 had raised, H5927 to go up H1129 to build H1004 the house H3068 of the Lord H3389 which is in Jerusalem.

6 H5439 And all they that were about H2388 them strengthened H3027 their hands H3627 with vessels H3701 of silver, H2091 with gold, H7399 with goods, H929 and with animals, H4030 and with precious things, H5068 beside all that was willingly offered.

7 H3566 Also Cyrus H4428 the king H3318 brought forth H3627 the vessels H1004 of the house H3068 of the Lord, H5019 which Nebuchadnezzar H3318 had brought forth H3389 out of Jerusalem, H5414 and had put H1004 them in the house H430 of his gods;

8 H3566 Even those did Cyrus H4428 king H6539 of Persia H3318 bring forth H3027 by the hand H4990 of Mithredath H1489 the treasurer, H5608 and numbered H8339 them unto Sheshbazzar, H5387 the prince H3063 of Judah.

9 H4557 And this is the number H7970 of them: thirty H105 chargers H2091 of gold, H505 a thousand H105 chargers H3701 of silver, H8672 nine H6242 and twenty H4252 knives,

10 H7970 Thirty H3713 basins H2091 of gold, H3701 silver H3713 basins H4932 of a second H702 sort four H3967 hundred H6235 and ten, H312 and other H3627 vessels H505 a thousand.

11 H3627 All the vessels H2091 of gold H3701 and of silver H2568 were five H505 thousand H702 and four H3967 hundred. H8339 All these did Sheshbazzar H5927 bring up H1473 with them of the captivity H5927 that were brought up H894 from Babylon H3389 unto Jerusalem.
