Nehemiah 2:4-8

CLV(i) 4 And the king said to me, `For what are you seeking?' and I pray unto the Elohim of the heavens, 5 and say to the king, `If to the king [it be] good, and if your servant be pleasing before you, that you send me unto Judah, unto the city of the graves of my fathers, and I built it.. 6 And the king said to me (and the queen is sitting near him), `How long is your journey? and when do you return?' and it is good before the king, and he sends me away, and I set to him a time. 7 And I say to the king, `If to the king [it be] good, letters let be given to me for the governors beyond the River, that they let me pass over till that I come in unto Judah. 8 and a letter unto Asaph, keeper of the paradise that the king has, that he give to me trees for beams [for] the gates of the palace that the house has, and for the wall of the city, and for the house into which I enter;' and the king gives to me, according to the good hand of my Elohim upon me.
