Ezr 01:01 ¶ Now in the first <0259> year <08141> of Cyrus <03566> king <04428> of Persia <06539>, that the word <01697> of the LORD <03068> by the mouth <06310> of Jeremiah <03414> might be fulfilled <03615> (8800), the LORD <03068> stirred up <05782> (8689) the spirit <07307> of Cyrus <03566> king <04428> of Persia <06539>, that he made a proclamation <05674> (8686) <06963> throughout all his kingdom <04438>, and put it also in writing <04385>, saying <0559> (8800), Ezr 01:02 Thus saith <0559> (8804) Cyrus <03566> king <04428> of Persia <06539>, The LORD <03068> God <0430> of heaven <08064> hath given <05414> (8804) me all the kingdoms <04467> of the earth <0776>; and he hath charged <06485> (8804) me to build <01129> (8800) him an house <01004> at Jerusalem <03389>, which is in Judah <03063>. Ezr 01:03 Who is there among you of all his people <05971>? his God <0430> be with him, and let him go up <05927> (8799) to Jerusalem <03389>, which is in Judah <03063>, and build <01129> (8799) the house <01004> of the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>, (he is the God <0430>,) which is in Jerusalem <03389>.

Ezr 03:06 From the first <0259> day <03117> of the seventh <07637> month <02320> began <02490> (8689) they to offer <05927> (8687) burnt offerings <05930> unto the LORD <03068>. But the foundation <03245> <00> of the temple <01964> of the LORD <03068> was not yet laid <03245> (8795). Ezr 03:07 They gave <05414> (8799) money <03701> also unto the masons <02672> (8802), and to the carpenters <02796>; and meat <03978>, and drink <04960>, and oil <08081>, unto them of Zidon <06722>, and to them of Tyre <06876>, to bring <0935> (8687) cedar <0730> trees <06086> from Lebanon <03844> to the sea <03220> of Joppa <03305>, according to the grant <07558> that they had of Cyrus <03566> king <04428> of Persia <06539>. Ezr 03:08 ¶ Now in the second <08145> year <08141> of their coming <0935> (8800) unto the house <01004> of God <0430> at Jerusalem <03389>, in the second <08145> month <02320>, began <02490> (8689) Zerubbabel <02216> the son <01121> of Shealtiel <07597>, and Jeshua <03442> the son <01121> of Jozadak <03136>, and the remnant <07605> of their brethren <0251> the priests <03548> and the Levites <03881>, and all they that were come out <0935> (8802) of the captivity <07628> unto Jerusalem <03389>; and appointed <05975> (8686) the Levites <03881>, from twenty <06242> years <08141> old <01121> and upward <04605>, to set forward <05329> (8763) the work <04399> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>. Ezr 03:09 Then stood <05975> (8799) Jeshua <03442> with his sons <01121> and his brethren <0251>, Kadmiel <06934> and his sons <01121>, the sons <01121> of Judah <03063>, together <0259>, to set forward <05329> (8763) the workmen <06213> (8802) <04399> in the house <01004> of God <0430>: the sons <01121> of Henadad <02582>, with their sons <01121> and their brethren <0251> the Levites <03881>. Ezr 03:10 And when the builders <01129> (8802) laid the foundation <03245> (8765) of the temple <01964> of the LORD <03068>, they set <05975> (8686) the priests <03548> in their apparel <03847> (8794) with trumpets <02689>, and the Levites <03881> the sons <01121> of Asaph <0623> with cymbals <04700>, to praise <01984> (8763) the LORD <03068>, after the ordinance <03027> of David <01732> king <04428> of Israel <03478>. Ezr 03:11 And they sang together by course <06030> (8799) in praising <01984> (8763) and giving thanks <03034> (8687) unto the LORD <03068>; because he is good <02896>, for his mercy <02617> endureth for ever <05769> toward Israel <03478>. And all the people <05971> shouted <07321> (8689) with a great <01419> shout <08643>, when they praised <01984> (8763) the LORD <03068>, because the foundation <03245> <00> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068> was laid <03245> (8717). Ezr 03:12 But many <07227> of the priests <03548> and Levites <03881> and chief <07218> of the fathers <01>, who were ancient men <02205>, that had seen <07200> (8804) the first <07223> house <01004>, when the foundation <03245> <00> of this house <01004> was laid <03245> (8800) before their eyes <05869>, wept <01058> (8802) with a loud <01419> voice <06963>; and many <07227> shouted <08643> aloud <07311> (8687) for joy <08057>: Ezr 03:13 So that the people <05971> could not discern <05234> (8688) the noise <06963> of the shout <08643> of joy <08057> from the noise <06963> of the weeping <01065> of the people <05971>: for the people <05971> shouted <07321> (8688) with a loud <01419> shout <08643>, and the noise <06963> was heard <08085> (8738) afar off <07350>. Ezr 04:01 ¶ Now when the adversaries <06862> of Judah <03063> and Benjamin <01144> heard <08085> (8799) that the children <01121> of the captivity <01473> builded <01129> (8802) the temple <01964> unto the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>; Ezr 04:02 Then they came <05066> (8799) to Zerubbabel <02216>, and to the chief <07218> of the fathers <01>, and said <0559> (8799) unto them, Let us build <01129> (8799) with you: for we seek <01875> (8799) your God <0430>, as ye do; and we do sacrifice <02076> (8802) unto him since the days <03117> of Esarhaddon <0634> king <04428> of Assur <0804>, which brought us up hither <05927> (8688). Ezr 04:03 But Zerubbabel <02216>, and Jeshua <03442>, and the rest <07605> of the chief <07218> of the fathers <01> of Israel <03478>, said <0559> (8799) unto them, Ye have nothing to do with us to build <01129> (8800) an house <01004> unto our God <0430>; but we ourselves together <03162> will build <01129> (8799) unto the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>, as king <04428> Cyrus <03566> the king <04428> of Persia <06539> hath commanded <06680> (8765) us. Ezr 04:04 Then the people <05971> of the land <0776> weakened <07503> (8764) the hands <03027> of the people <05971> of Judah <03063>, and troubled <0926> (8764) (8675) <01089> (8764) them in building <01129> (8800), Ezr 04:05 And hired <07936> (8802) counsellors <03289> (8802) against them, to frustrate <06565> (8687) their purpose <06098>, all the days <03117> of Cyrus <03566> king <04428> of Persia <06539>, even until the reign <04438> of Darius <01867> king <04428> of Persia <06539>. Ezr 04:06 ¶ And in the reign <04438> of Ahasuerus <0325>, in the beginning <08462> of his reign <04438>, wrote <03789> (8804) they unto him an accusation <07855> against the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of Judah <03063> and Jerusalem <03389>. Ezr 04:07 And in the days <03117> of Artaxerxes <0783> wrote <03789> (8804) Bishlam <01312>, Mithredath <04990>, Tabeel <02870>, and the rest <07605> of their companions <03674>, unto Artaxerxes <0783> king <04428> of Persia <06539>; and the writing <03791> of the letter <05406> was written <03789> (8803) in the Syrian tongue <0762>, and interpreted <08638> (8794) in the Syrian tongue <0762>. Ezr 04:08 Rehum <07348> the chancellor <01169> <02942> and Shimshai <08124> the scribe <05613> wrote <03790> (8754) a <02298> letter <0104> against <05922> Jerusalem <03390> to Artaxerxes <0783> the king <04430> in this sort <03660>: Ezr 04:09 Then <0116> wrote Rehum <07348> the chancellor <01169> <02942>, and Shimshai <08124> the scribe <05613>, and the rest <07606> of their companions <03675>; the Dinaites <01784>, the Apharsathchites <0671>, the Tarpelites <02967>, the Apharsites <0670>, the Archevites <0756>, the Babylonians <0896>, the Susanchites <07801>, the Dehavites <01723>, and the Elamites <05962>, Ezr 04:10 And the rest <07606> of the nations <0524> whom <01768> the great <07229> and noble <03358> Asnappar <0620> brought over <01541> (8684), and set <03488> (8684) <01994> in the cities <07149> of Samaria <08115>, and the rest <07606> that are on this side <05675> the river <05103>, and at such a time <03706>. Ezr 04:11 This <01836> is the copy <06573> of the letter <0104> that <01768> they sent <07972> (8754) unto him <05922>, even unto Artaxerxes <0783> the king <04430>; Thy servants <05649> the men <0606> on this side <05675> the river <05103>, and at such a time <03706>. Ezr 04:12 Be it <01934> (8748) known <03046> (8752) unto the king <04430>, that the Jews <03062> which <01768> came up <05559> (8760) from <04481> thee <03890> to us <05922> are come <0858> (8754) unto Jerusalem <03390>, building <01124> (8750) the rebellious <04779> and the bad <0873> city <07149>, and have set up <03635> (8806) (8675) <03635> (8720) the walls <07792> thereof, and joined <02338> (8681) the foundations <0787>. Ezr 04:13 Be it known <03046> (8752) <01934> (8748) now <03705> unto the king <04430>, that, if <02006> this <01791> city <07149> be builded <01124> (8731), and the walls <07792> set up <03635> (8720) again, then will they not <03809> pay <05415> (8748) toll <04061>, tribute <01093>, and custom <01983>, and so thou shalt endamage <05142> (8681) the revenue <0674> of the kings <04430>. Ezr 04:14 Now <03705> because <06903> <03606> we have <01768> maintenance <04415> (8754) <04416> from the king’s palace <01965>, and it was not <03809> meet <0749> (8750) for us to see <02370> (8749) the king’s <04430> dishonour <06173>, therefore <05922> <01836> have we sent <07972> (8754) and certified <03046> (8684) the king <04430>; Ezr 04:15 That search <01240> (8741) may be made in the book <05609> of the records <01799> of thy fathers <02>: so shalt thou find <07912> (8681) in the book <05609> of the records <01799>, and know <03046> (8748) that this <01791> city <07149> is a rebellious <04779> city <07149>, and hurtful <05142> (8683) unto kings <04430> and provinces <04083>, and that they have moved <05648> (8751) sedition <0849> within the same <01459> of <04481> old <05957> time <03118>: for <05922> which <01836> cause was this <01791> city <07149> destroyed <02718> (8717). Ezr 04:16 We <0586> certify <03046> (8683) the king <04430> that, if <02006> this <01791> city <07149> be builded <01124> (8731) again, and the walls <07792> thereof set up <03635> (8720), by this <01836> means <06903> thou shalt have <0383> no <03809> portion <02508> on this side <05675> the river <05103>. Ezr 04:17 ¶ Then sent <07972> (8754) the king <04430> an answer <06600> unto <05922> Rehum <07348> the chancellor <01169> <02942>, and to Shimshai <08124> the scribe <05613>, and to the rest <07606> of their companions <03675> that dwell <03488> (8750) in Samaria <08115>, and unto the rest <07606> beyond <05675> the river <05103>, Peace <08001>, and at such a time <03706>. Ezr 04:18 The letter <05407> which ye sent <07972> (8754) unto us <05922> hath been plainly <06568> (8744) read <07123> (8752) before <06925> me. Ezr 04:19 And I <04481> commanded <07761> (8752) <02942>, and search <01240> (8745) hath been made, and it is found <07912> (8684) that this <01791> city <07149> of <04481> old <05957> time <03118> hath made insurrection <05376> (8723) against <05922> kings <04430>, and that rebellion <04776> and sedition <0849> have been made <05648> (8727) therein. Ezr 04:20 There have been <01934> (8754) mighty <08624> kings <04430> also over <05922> Jerusalem <03390>, which have ruled <07990> over all <03606> countries beyond <05675> the river <05103>; and toll <04061>, tribute <01093>, and custom <01983>, was paid <03052> (8727) unto them. Ezr 04:21 Give <07761> (8747) ye now <03705> commandment <02942> to cause <0989> <00> these <0479> men <01400> to cease <0989> (8749), and that this <01791> city <07149> be not <03809> builded <01124> (8731), until <05705> another commandment <02941> shall be given <07761> (8725) from me <04481>. Ezr 04:22 Take heed <01934> (8747) <02095> (8750) now that ye fail <07960> not to do <05922> <05648> (8749) this <01836>: why <04101> should damage <02257> grow <07680> (8748) to the hurt <05142> (8682) of the kings <04430>? Ezr 04:23 Now <0116> when <04481> <01768> the copy <06573> of king <04430> Artaxerxes <0783>‘ letter <05407> was read <07123> (8752) before <06925> Rehum <07348>, and Shimshai <08124> the scribe <05613>, and their companions <03675>, they went up <0236> (8754) in haste <0924> to Jerusalem <03390> unto <05922> the Jews <03062>, and made them <01994> to cease <0989> (8754) by force <0153> and power <02429>. Ezr 04:24 Then <0116> ceased <0989> (8754) the work <05673> of the house <01005> of God <0426> which is at Jerusalem <03390>. So it ceased <01934> (8754) <0989> (8750) unto <05705> the second <08648> year <08140> of the reign <04437> of Darius <01868> king <04430> of Persia <06540>. Ezr 05:01 ¶ Then the prophets <05029>, Haggai <02292> the prophet <05029>, and Zechariah <02148> the son <01247> of Iddo <05714>, prophesied <05013> (8724) unto <05922> the Jews <03062> that were in Judah <03061> and Jerusalem <03390> in the name <08036> of the God <0426> of Israel <03479>, even unto <05922> them. Ezr 05:02 Then <0116> rose up <06966> (8754) Zerubbabel <02217> the son <01247> of Shealtiel <07598>, and Jeshua <03443> the son <01247> of Jozadak <03136>, and began <08271> (8745) to build <01124> (8749) the house <01005> of God <0426> which is at Jerusalem <03390>: and with them <05974> were the prophets <05029> of God <0426> helping <05583> (8683) them. Ezr 05:03 ¶ At the same time <02166> came <0858> (8754) to them Tatnai <08674>, governor <06347> on this side <05675> the river <05103>, and Shetharboznai <08370>, and their companions <03675>, and said <0560> (8750) thus <03652> unto them <05922>, Who <04479> hath commanded <07761> (8754) <02942> you to build <01124> (8749) this <01836> house <01005>, and to make up <03635> (8805) this <01836> wall <0846>? Ezr 05:04 Then <0116> said <0560> (8754) we unto them after this manner <03660>, What <04479> are <0581> the names <08036> of the men <01400> that make <01124> (8750) this <01836> building <01147>? Ezr 05:05 But the eye <05870> of their God <0426> was <01934> (8754) upon <05922> the elders <07868> (8750) of the Jews <03062>, that they could not <03809> cause <0989> <00> them <01994> to cease <0989> (8754), till <05705> the matter <02941> came <01946> (8748) to Darius <01868>: and then <0116> they returned answer <08421> (8681) by letter <05407> concerning <05922> this <01836> matter. Ezr 05:06 The copy <06573> of the letter <0104> that Tatnai <08674>, governor <06347> on this side <05675> the river <05103>, and Shetharboznai <08370>, and his companions <03675> the Apharsachites <0671>, which were on this side <05675> the river <05103>, sent <07972> (8754) unto <05922> Darius <01868> the king <04430>: Ezr 05:07 They sent <07972> (8754) a letter <06600> unto <05922> him, wherein <01459> was written <03790> (8752) thus <01836>; Unto Darius <01868> the king <04430>, all <03606> peace <08001>. Ezr 05:08 Be it known <01934> (8748) <03046> (8752) unto the king <04430>, that we went <0236> (8754) into the province <04083> of Judea <03061>, to the house <01005> of the great <07229> God <0426>, which is builded <01124> (8732) with great <01560> stones <069>, and timber <0636> is laid <07761> (8727) in the walls <03797>, and this <01791> work <05673> goeth <05648> (8727) fast <0629> on, and prospereth <06744> (8683) in their hands <03028>. Ezr 05:09 Then <0116> asked <07593> (8754) we those <0479> elders <07868> (8750), and said <0560> (8754) unto them thus <03660>, Who <04479> commanded <07761> (8754) <02942> you to build <01124> (8749) this <01836> house <01005>, and to make up <03635> (8805) these <01836> walls <0846>? Ezr 05:10 We asked <07593> (8754) their names <08036> also <0638>, to certify <03046> (8682) thee, that we might write <03790> (8748) the names <08036> of the men <01400> that were the chief <07217> of them. Ezr 05:11 And thus <03660> they returned <08421> (8684) us answer <06600>, saying <0560> (8749), We <0586> are <01994> the servants <05649> of the God <0426> of heaven <08065> and earth <0772>, and build <01124> (8750) the house <01005> that was <01934> (8754) builded <01124> (8752) these <01836> many <07690> years <08140> ago <06928>, which a great <07229> king <04430> of Israel <03479> builded <01124> (8754) and set up <03635> (8806). Ezr 05:12 But <03861> after <04481> that our fathers <02> had provoked <07265> <00> the God <0426> of heaven <08065> unto wrath <07265> (8684), he gave <03052> (8754) them <01994> into the hand <03028> of Nebuchadnezzar <05020> the king <04430> of Babylon <0895>, the Chaldean <03679>, who destroyed <05642> (8754) this <01836> house <01005>, and carried <01541> <00> the people <05972> away <01541> (8684) into Babylon <0895>. Ezr 05:13 But <01297> in the first <02298> year <08140> of Cyrus <03567> the king <04430> of Babylon <0895> the same king <04430> Cyrus <03567> made <07761> (8754) a decree <02942> to build <01124> (8749) this <01836> house <01005> of God <0426>. Ezr 05:14 And the vessels <03984> also <0638> of <01768> gold <01722> and silver <03702> of the house <01005> of God <0426>, which Nebuchadnezzar <05020> took <05312> (8684) out of <04481> the temple <01965> that was in Jerusalem <03390>, and brought <02987> (8684) them into the temple <01965> of Babylon <0895>, those <01994> did Cyrus <03567> the king <04430> take <05312> (8684) out of <04481> the temple <01965> of Babylon <0895>, and they were delivered <03052> (8753) unto one, whose name <08036> was Sheshbazzar <08340>, whom he had made <07761> (8754) governor <06347>; Ezr 05:15 And said <0560> (8754) unto him, Take <05376> (8747) these <0412> vessels <03984>, go <0236> (8747), carry <05182> (8680) them <01994> into the temple <01965> that is in Jerusalem <03390>, and let the house <01005> of God <0426> be builded <01124> (8731) in <05922> his place <0870>. Ezr 05:16 Then <0116> came <0858> (8754) the same <01791> Sheshbazzar <08340>, and laid <03052> (8754) the foundation <0787> of the house <01005> of God <0426> which is in Jerusalem <03390>: and since <04481> that time <0116> even until <05705> now <03705> hath it been in building <01124> (8732), and yet it is not <03809> finished <08000> (8752). Ezr 05:17 Now <03705> therefore, if <02006> it seem good <02869> to <05922> the king <04430>, let there be search <01240> (8721) made in the king’s <04430> treasure <01596> house <01005>, which is there <08536> at Babylon <0895>, whether <02006> it be <0383> so, that a decree <02942> was made <07761> (8752) of <04481> Cyrus <03567> the king <04430> to build <01124> (8749) this <01791> house <01005> of God <0426> at Jerusalem <03390>, and let the king <04430> send <07972> (8748) his pleasure <07470> to us concerning <05922> this matter <01836>. Ezr 06:01 ¶ Then <0116> Darius <01868> the king <04430> made <07761> (8754) a decree <02942>, and search <01240> (8745) was made in the house <01005> of the rolls <05609>, where <08536> the treasures <01596> were laid up <05182> (8683) in Babylon <0895>. Ezr 06:02 And there was found <07912> (8728) at Achmetha <0307>, in the palace <01001> that is in the province <04083> of the Medes <04076>, a <02298> roll <04040>, and therein <01459> was a record <01799> thus <03652> written <03790> (8752): Ezr 06:03 In the first <02298> year <08140> of Cyrus <03567> the king <04430> the same Cyrus <03567> the king <04430> made <07761> (8754) a decree <02942> concerning the house <01005> of God <0426> at Jerusalem <03390>, Let the house <01005> be builded <01124> (8731), the place <0870> where they offered <01684> (8751) sacrifices <01685>, and let the foundations <0787> thereof be strongly laid <05446> (8775); the height <07314> thereof threescore <08361> cubits <0521>, and the breadth <06613> thereof threescore <08361> cubits <0521>; Ezr 06:04 With three <08532> rows <05073> of great <01560> stones <069>, and a row <05073> of new <02323> timber <0636>: and let the expenses <05313> be given <03052> (8725) out of <04481> the king’s <04430> house <01005>: Ezr 06:05 And also <0638> let the golden <01722> and silver <03702> vessels <03984> of the house <01005> of God <0426>, which Nebuchadnezzar <05020> took forth <05312> (8684) out of <04481> the temple <01965> which is at Jerusalem <03390>, and brought <02987> (8684) unto Babylon <0895>, be restored <08421> (8681), and brought again <01946> (8748) unto the temple <01965> which is at Jerusalem <03390>, every one to his place <0870>, and place <05182> (8681) them in the house <01005> of God <0426>. Ezr 06:06 Now <03705> therefore, Tatnai <08674>, governor <06347> beyond <05675> the river <05103>, Shetharboznai <08370>, and your companions <03675> the Apharsachites <0671>, which are beyond <05675> the river <05103>, be ye <01934> (8754) far <07352> from <04481> thence <08536>: Ezr 06:07 Let the work <05673> of this <01791> house <01005> of God <0426> alone <07662> (8747); let the governor <06347> of the Jews <03062> and the elders <07868> (8750) of the Jews <03062> build <01124> (8748) this <01791> house <01005> of God <0426> in <05922> his place <0870>. Ezr 06:08 Moreover I <04481> make <07761> (8752) a decree <02942> what <03964> ye shall do <05648> (8748) to <05974> the elders <07868> (8750) of these <0479> Jews <03062> for the building <01124> (8749) of this <01791> house <01005> of God <0426>: that of the king’s <04430> goods <05232>, even of <01768> the tribute <04061> beyond <05675> the river <05103>, forthwith <0629> expenses <05313> be <01934> (8748) given <03052> (8727) unto these <0479> men <01400>, that they be not <03809> hindered <0989> (8749). Ezr 06:09 And that which <04101> they have need of <02818> (8750), both young <01123> bullocks <08450>, and rams <01798>, and lambs <0563>, for the burnt offerings <05928> of the God <0426> of heaven <08065>, wheat <02591>, salt <04416>, wine <02562>, and oil <04887>, according to the appointment <03983> of the priests <03549> which are at Jerusalem <03390>, let it be <01934> (8748) given <03052> (8727) them day <03118> by day <03118> without <03809> fail <07960>: Ezr 06:10 That they may offer <01934> (8748) <07127> (8683) sacrifices of sweet savours <05208> unto the God <0426> of heaven <08065>, and pray <06739> (8743) for the life <02417> of the king <04430>, and of his sons <01123>. Ezr 06:11 Also <04481> I have made <07761> (8752) a decree <02942>, that whosoever <03606> <0606> shall alter <08133> (8681) this <01836> word <06600>, let timber <0636> be pulled down <05256> (8725) from <04481> his house <01005>, and being set up <02211> (8752), let him be hanged <04223> (8725) thereon <05922>; and let his house <01005> be made <05648> (8725) a dunghill <05122> for <05922> this <01836>. Ezr 06:12 And the God <0426> that hath caused his name <08036> to dwell <07932> (8745) there <08536> destroy <04049> (8741) all <03606> kings <04430> and people <05972>, that shall put <07972> (8748) to their hand <03028> to alter <08133> (8682) and to destroy <02255> (8742) this <01791> house <01005> of God <0426> which is at Jerusalem <03390>. I <0576> Darius <01868> have made <07761> (8754) a decree <02942>; let it be done <05648> (8725) with speed <0629>.

Ezr 06:14 And the elders <07868> (8750) of the Jews <03062> builded <01124> (8750), and they prospered <06744> (8683) through the prophesying <05017> of Haggai <02292> the prophet <05029> and Zechariah <02148> the son <01247> of Iddo <05714>. And they builded <01124> (8754), and finished <03635> (8806) it, according <04481> to the commandment <02941> of the God <0426> of Israel <03479>, and according to the commandment <02942> of Cyrus <03567>, and Darius <01868>, and Artaxerxes <0783> king <04430> of Persia <06540>. Ezr 06:15 And this <01836> house <01005> was finished <03319> (8806) on <05705> the third <08532> day <03118> of the month <03393> Adar <0144>, which was <01932> in the sixth <08353> year <08140> of the reign <04437> of Darius <01868> the king <04430>. Ezr 06:16 And the children <01123> of Israel <03479>, the priests <03549>, and the Levites <03879>, and the rest <07606> of the children <01123> of the captivity <01547>, kept <05648> (8754) the dedication <02597> of this <01836> house <01005> of God <0426> with joy <02305>, Ezr 06:17 And offered <07127> (8684) at the dedication <02597> of this <01836> house <01005> of God <0426> an hundred <03969> bullocks <08450>, two hundred <03969> rams <01798>, four <0703> hundred <03969> lambs <0563>; and for a sin offering <02402> (8675) <02409> for <05922> all <03606> Israel <03479>, twelve <08648> <06236> he <06841> goats <05796>, according to the number <04510> of the tribes <07625> of Israel <03479>.

Ezr 06:19 And the children <01121> of the captivity <01473> kept <06213> (8799) the passover <06453> upon the fourteenth <0702> <06240> day of the first <07223> month <02320>. Ezr 06:20 For the priests <03548> and the Levites <03881> were purified <02891> (8694) together <0259>, all of them were pure <02889>, and killed <07819> (8799) the passover <06453> for all the children <01121> of the captivity <01473>, and for their brethren <0251> the priests <03548>, and for themselves. Ezr 06:21 And the children <01121> of Israel <03478>, which were come again <07725> (8802) out of captivity <01473>, and all such as had separated <0914> (8737) themselves unto them from the filthiness <02932> of the heathen <01471> of the land <0776>, to seek <01875> (8800) the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>, did eat <0398> (8799), Ezr 06:22 And kept <06213> (8799) the feast <02282> of unleavened bread <04682> seven <07651> days <03117> with joy <08057>: for the LORD <03068> had made them joyful <08055> (8765), and turned <05437> (8689) the heart <03820> of the king <04428> of Assyria <0804> unto them, to strengthen <02388> (8763) their hands <03027> in the work <04399> of the house <01004> of God <0430>, the God <0430> of Israel <03478>. Ezr 07:01 ¶ Now after <0310> these things <01697>, in the reign <04438> of Artaxerxes <0783> king <04428> of Persia <06539>, Ezra <05830> the son <01121> of Seraiah <08304>, the son <01121> of Azariah <05838>, the son <01121> of Hilkiah <02518>, Ezr 07:02 The son <01121> of Shallum <07967>, the son <01121> of Zadok <06659>, the son <01121> of Ahitub <0285>, Ezr 07:03 The son <01121> of Amariah <0568>, the son <01121> of Azariah <05838>, the son <01121> of Meraioth <04812>, Ezr 07:04 The son <01121> of Zerahiah <02228>, the son <01121> of Uzzi <05813>, the son <01121> of Bukki <01231>, Ezr 07:05 The son <01121> of Abishua <050>, the son <01121> of Phinehas <06372>, the son <01121> of Eleazar <0499>, the son <01121> of Aaron <0175> the chief <07218> priest <03548>: Ezr 07:06 This Ezra <05830> went up <05927> (8804) from Babylon <0894>; and he was a ready <04106> scribe <05608> (8802) in the law <08451> of Moses <04872>, which the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> had given <05414> (8804): and the king <04428> granted <05414> (8799) him all his request <01246>, according to the hand <03027> of the LORD <03068> his God <0430> upon him. Ezr 07:07 And there went up <05927> (8799) some of the children <01121> of Israel <03478>, and of the priests <03548>, and the Levites <03881>, and the singers <07891> (8789), and the porters <07778>, and the Nethinims <05411>, unto Jerusalem <03389>, in the seventh <07651> year <08141> of Artaxerxes <0783> the king <04428>. Ezr 07:08 And he came <0935> (8799) to Jerusalem <03389> in the fifth <02549> month <02320>, which was in the seventh <07637> year <08141> of the king <04428>. Ezr 07:09 For upon the first <0259> day of the first <07223> month <02320> began <03246> he to go up <04609> from Babylon <0894>, and on the first <0259> day of the fifth <02549> month <02320> came <0935> (8804) he to Jerusalem <03389>, according to the good <02896> hand <03027> of his God <0430> upon him. Ezr 07:10 For Ezra <05830> had prepared <03559> (8689) his heart <03824> to seek <01875> (8800) the law <08451> of the LORD <03068>, and to do <06213> (8800) it, and to teach <03925> (8763) in Israel <03478> statutes <02706> and judgments <04941>. Ezr 07:11 ¶ Now this is the copy <06572> of the letter <05406> that the king <04428> Artaxerxes <0783> gave <05414> (8804) unto Ezra <05830> the priest <03548>, the scribe <05608> (8802), even a scribe <05608> (8802) of the words <01697> of the commandments <04687> of the LORD <03068>, and of his statutes <02706> to Israel <03478>.

Ezr 07:13 I <04481> make <07761> (8752) a decree <02942>, that all <03606> they of <04481> the people <05972> of Israel <03479>, and of his priests <03549> and Levites <03879>, in my realm <04437>, which are minded of their own freewill <05069> (8723) to go up <01946> (8749) to Jerusalem <03390>, go <01946> (8748) with thee <05974>. Ezr 07:14 Forasmuch <01768> <06903> as <03606> thou art sent <07972> (8750) of <04481> <06925> the king <04430>, and of his seven <07655> counsellors <03272> (8750), to enquire <01240> (8742) concerning <05922> Judah <03061> and Jerusalem <03390>, according to the law <01882> of thy God <0426> which is in thine hand <03028>; Ezr 07:15 And to carry <02987> (8682) the silver <03702> and gold <01722>, which the king <04430> and his counsellors <03272> (8750) have freely offered <05069> (8724) unto the God <0426> of Israel <03479>, whose <01768> habitation <04907> is in Jerusalem <03390>, Ezr 07:16 And all <03606> the silver <03702> and gold <01722> that thou canst find <07912> (8681) in all <03606> the province <04083> of Babylon <0895>, with <05974> the freewill offering <05069> (8722) of the people <05972>, and of the priests <03549>, offering willingly <05069> (8723) for the house <01005> of their God <0426> which is in Jerusalem <03390>: Ezr 07:17 That <03606> <06903> thou mayest buy <07066> (8748) speedily <0629> with this <01836> money <03702> bullocks <08450>, rams <01798>, lambs <0563>, with their meat offerings <04504> and their drink offerings <05261>, and offer <07127> (8741) them <01994> upon <05922> the altar <04056> of the house <01005> of your God <0426> which is in Jerusalem <03390>. Ezr 07:18 And whatsoever <04101> <01768> shall seem good <03191> (8748) to thee, and to <05922> thy brethren <0252>, to do <05648> (8749) with the rest <07606> of the silver <03702> and the gold <01722>, that do <05648> (8748) after the will <07470> of your God <0426>. Ezr 07:19 The vessels <03984> also that are given <03052> (8727) thee for the service <06402> of the house <01005> of thy God <0426>, those deliver <08000> (8680) thou before <06925> the God <0426> of Jerusalem <03390>. Ezr 07:20 And whatsoever more <07606> shall be needful <02819> for the house <01005> of thy God <0426>, which thou shalt have occasion <05308> (8748) to bestow <05415> (8749), bestow <05415> (8748) it out of <04481> the king’s <04430> treasure <01596> house <01005>. Ezr 07:21 And I <04481>, even I <0576> Artaxerxes <0783> the king <04430>, do make <07761> (8752) a decree <02942> to all <03606> the treasurers <01490> which are beyond <05675> the river <05103>, that whatsoever Ezra <05831> the priest <03549>, the scribe <05613> of the law <01882> of the God <0426> of heaven <08065>, shall require <07593> (8748) of you, it be done <05648> (8725) speedily <0629>, Ezr 07:22 Unto <05705> an hundred <03969> talents <03604> of silver <03702>, and to an hundred <03969> measures <03734> of wheat <02591>, and to an hundred <03969> baths <01325> of wine <02562>, and to an hundred <03969> baths <01325> of oil <04887>, and salt <04416> without <03809> prescribing <03792> how much. Ezr 07:23 Whatsoever <03606> is commanded by <02941> <04481> the God <0426> of heaven <08065>, let it be diligently <0149> done <05648> (8725) for the house <01005> of the God <0426> of heaven <08065>: for <01768> why <04101> should there be <01934> (8748) wrath <07109> against <05922> the realm <04437> of the king <04430> and his sons <01123>? Ezr 07:24 Also we certify <03046> (8683) you, that touching any <03606> of the priests <03549> and Levites <03879>, singers <02171>, porters <08652>, Nethinims <05412>, or ministers <06399> (8750) of this <01836> house <01005> of God <0426>, it shall not <03809> be lawful <07990> to impose <07412> (8749) toll <04061>, tribute <01093>, or custom <01983>, upon <05922> them. Ezr 07:25 And thou <0607>, Ezra <05831>, after the wisdom <02452> of thy God <0426>, that is in thine hand <03028>, set <04483> (8740) magistrates <08200> (8751) and judges <01782>, which may judge <01934> (8748) <01778> (8751) all <03606> the people <05972> that are beyond <05675> the river <05103>, all <03606> such as know <03046> (8751) the laws <01882> of thy God <0426>; and teach <03046> (8681) ye them that know <03046> (8751) them not <03809>. Ezr 07:26 And whosoever <03606> will not <03809> do <01934> (8748) <05648> (8751) the law <01882> of thy God <0426>, and the law <01882> of the king <04430>, let judgment <01780> be <01934> (8748) executed <05648> (8727) speedily <0629> upon him <04481>, whether <02006> it be unto death <04193>, or <02006> to banishment <08332>, or <02006> to confiscation <06065> of goods <05232>, or to imprisonment <0613>. Ezr 07:27 ¶ Blessed <01288> (8803) be the LORD <03068> God <0430> of our fathers <01>, which hath put <05414> (8804) such a thing as this in the king’s <04428> heart <03820>, to beautify <06286> (8763) the house <01004> of the LORD <03068> which is in Jerusalem <03389>: Ezr 07:28 And hath extended <05186> (8689) mercy <02617> unto me before <06440> the king <04428>, and his counsellors <03289> (8802), and before all the king’s <04428> mighty <01368> princes <08269>. And I was strengthened <02388> (8694) as the hand <03027> of the LORD <03068> my God <0430> was upon me, and I gathered together <06908> (8799) out of Israel <03478> chief men <07218> to go up <05927> (8800) with me. Ezr 08:01 ¶ These are now the chief <07218> of their fathers <01>, and this is the genealogy <03187> (8692) of them that went up <05927> (8802) with me from Babylon <0894>, in the reign <04438> of Artaxerxes <0783> the king <04428>. Ezr 08:02 Of the sons <01121> of Phinehas <06372>; Gershom <01647>: of the sons <01121> of Ithamar <0385>; Daniel <01840>: of the sons <01121> of David <01732>; Hattush <02407>. Ezr 08:03 Of the sons <01121> of Shechaniah <07935>, of the sons <01121> of Pharosh <06551>; Zechariah <02148>: and with him were reckoned by genealogy <03187> (8692) of the males <02145> an hundred <03967> and fifty <02572>. Ezr 08:04 Of the sons <01121> of Pahathmoab <06355>; Elihoenai <0454> the son <01121> of Zerahiah <02228>, and with him two hundred <03967> males <02145>. Ezr 08:05 Of the sons <01121> of Shechaniah <07935>; the son <01121> of Jahaziel <03166>, and with him three <07969> hundred <03967> males <02145>. Ezr 08:06 Of the sons <01121> also of Adin <05720>; Ebed <05651> the son <01121> of Jonathan <03129>, and with him fifty <02572> males <02145>. Ezr 08:07 And of the sons <01121> of Elam <05867>; Jeshaiah <03470> the son <01121> of Athaliah <06271>, and with him seventy <07657> males <02145>. Ezr 08:08 And of the sons <01121> of Shephatiah <08203>; Zebadiah <02069> the son <01121> of Michael <04317>, and with him fourscore <08084> males <02145>. Ezr 08:09 Of the sons <01121> of Joab <03097>; Obadiah <05662> the son <01121> of Jehiel <03171>, and with him two hundred <03967> and eighteen <08083> <06240> males <02145>. Ezr 08:10 And of the sons <01121> of Shelomith <08019>; the son <01121> of Josiphiah <03131>, and with him an hundred <03967> and threescore <08346> males <02145>. Ezr 08:11 And of the sons <01121> of Bebai <0893>; Zechariah <02148> the son <01121> of Bebai <0893>, and with him twenty <06242> and eight <08083> males <02145>. Ezr 08:12 And of the sons <01121> of Azgad <05803>; Johanan <03110> the son <01121> of Hakkatan <06997>, and with him an hundred <03967> and ten <06235> males <02145>. Ezr 08:13 And of the last <0314> sons <01121> of Adonikam <0140>, whose names <08034> are these, Eliphelet <0467>, Jeiel <03273>, and Shemaiah <08098>, and with them threescore <08346> males <02145>. Ezr 08:14 Of the sons <01121> also of Bigvai <0902>; Uthai <05793>, and Zabbud <02072> (8675) <02139>, and with them seventy <07657> males <02145>. Ezr 08:15 And I gathered them together <06908> (8799) to the river <05104> that runneth <0935> (8802) to Ahava <0163>; and there abode we in tents <02583> (8799) three <07969> days <03117>: and I viewed <0995> (8799) the people <05971>, and the priests <03548>, and found <04672> (8804) there none of the sons <01121> of Levi <03878>. Ezr 08:16 Then sent <07971> (8799) I for Eliezer <0461>, for Ariel <0740>, for Shemaiah <08098>, and for Elnathan <0494>, and for Jarib <03402>, and for Elnathan <0494>, and for Nathan <05416>, and for Zechariah <02148>, and for Meshullam <04918>, chief men <07218>; also for Joiarib <03114>, and for Elnathan <0494>, men of understanding <0995> (8688). Ezr 08:17 And I sent <06680> (8762) them with commandment <03318> (8686) unto Iddo <0112> the chief <07218> at the place <04725> Casiphia <03703>, and I told <07760> (8799) <06310> them what <01697> they should say <01696> (8763) unto Iddo <0112>, and to his brethren <0251> the Nethinims <05411> (8675) <05411>, at the place <04725> Casiphia <03703>, that they should bring <0935> (8687) unto us ministers <08334> (8764) for the house <01004> of our God <0430>. Ezr 08:18 And by the good <02896> hand <03027> of our God <0430> upon us they brought <0935> (8686) us a man <0376> of understanding <07922>, of the sons <01121> of Mahli <04249>, the son <01121> of Levi <03878>, the son <01121> of Israel <03478>; and Sherebiah <08274>, with his sons <01121> and his brethren <0251>, eighteen <08083> <06240>; Ezr 08:19 And Hashabiah <02811>, and with him Jeshaiah <03470> of the sons <01121> of Merari <04847>, his brethren <0251> and their sons <01121>, twenty <06242>; Ezr 08:20 Also of the Nethinims <05411>, whom David <01732> and the princes <08269> had appointed <05414> (8804) for the service <05656> of the Levites <03881>, two hundred <03967> and twenty <06242> Nethinims <05411>: all of them were expressed <05344> (8738) by name <08034>. Ezr 08:21 ¶ Then I proclaimed <07121> (8799) a fast <06685> there, at the river <05104> of Ahava <0163>, that we might afflict <06031> (8692) ourselves before <06440> our God <0430>, to seek <01245> (8763) of him a right <03477> way <01870> for us, and for our little ones <02945>, and for all our substance <07399>. Ezr 08:22 For I was ashamed <0954> (8804) to require <07592> (8800) of the king <04428> a band of soldiers <02428> and horsemen <06571> to help <05826> (8800) us against the enemy <0341> (8802) in the way <01870>: because we had spoken <0559> (8804) unto the king <04428>, saying <0559> (8800), The hand <03027> of our God <0430> is upon all them for good <02896> that seek <01245> (8764) him; but his power <05797> and his wrath <0639> is against all them that forsake <05800> (8802) him. Ezr 08:23 So we fasted <06684> (8799) and besought <01245> (8762) our God <0430> for this: and he was intreated <06279> (8735) of us. Ezr 08:24 ¶ Then I separated <0914> (8686) twelve <08147> <06240> of the chief <08269> of the priests <03548>, Sherebiah <08274>, Hashabiah <02811>, and ten <06235> of their brethren <0251> with them, Ezr 08:25 And weighed <08254> (8799) unto them the silver <03701>, and the gold <02091>, and the vessels <03627>, even the offering <08641> of the house <01004> of our God <0430>, which the king <04428>, and his counsellors <03289> (8802), and his lords <08269>, and all Israel <03478> there present <04672> (8737), had offered <07311> (8689): Ezr 08:26 I even weighed <08254> (8799) unto their hand <03027> six <08337> hundred <03967> and fifty <02572> talents <03603> of silver <03701>, and silver <03701> vessels <03627> an hundred <03967> talents <03603>, and of gold <02091> an hundred <03967> talents <03603>; Ezr 08:27 Also twenty <06242> basons <03713> of gold <02091>, of a thousand <0505> drams <0150>; and two <08147> vessels <03627> of fine <02896> <06668> (8716) copper <05178>, precious <02532> as gold <02091>. Ezr 08:28 And I said <0559> (8799) unto them, Ye are holy <06944> unto the LORD <03068>; the vessels <03627> are holy <06944> also; and the silver <03701> and the gold <02091> are a freewill offering <05071> unto the LORD <03068> God <0430> of your fathers <01>. Ezr 08:29 Watch <08245> (8798) ye, and keep <08104> (8798) them, until ye weigh <08254> (8799) them before <06440> the chief <08269> of the priests <03548> and the Levites <03881>, and chief <08269> of the fathers <01> of Israel <03478>, at Jerusalem <03389>, in the chambers <03957> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>. Ezr 08:30 So took <06901> (8765) the priests <03548> and the Levites <03881> the weight <04948> of the silver <03701>, and the gold <02091>, and the vessels <03627>, to bring <0935> (8687) them to Jerusalem <03389> unto the house <01004> of our God <0430>. Ezr 08:31 ¶ Then we departed <05265> (8799) from the river <05104> of Ahava <0163> on the twelfth <08147> <06240> day of the first <07223> month <02320>, to go <03212> (8800) unto Jerusalem <03389>: and the hand <03027> of our God <0430> was upon us, and he delivered <05337> (8686) us from the hand <03709> of the enemy <0341> (8802), and of such as lay in wait <0693> (8802) by the way <01870>. Ezr 08:32 And we came <0935> (8799) to Jerusalem <03389>, and abode <03427> (8799) there three <07969> days <03117>. Ezr 08:33 Now on the fourth <07243> day <03117> was the silver <03701> and the gold <02091> and the vessels <03627> weighed <08254> (8738) in the house <01004> of our God <0430> by the hand <03027> of Meremoth <04822> the son <01121> of Uriah <0223> the priest <03548>; and with him was Eleazar <0499> the son <01121> of Phinehas <06372>; and with them was Jozabad <03107> the son <01121> of Jeshua <03442>, and Noadiah <05129> the son <01121> of Binnui <01131>, Levites <03881>; Ezr 08:34 By number <04557> and by weight <04948> of every one: and all the weight <04948> was written <03789> (8735) at that time <06256>. Ezr 08:35 Also the children <01121> of those that had been carried away <01473>, which were come out <0935> (8802) of the captivity <07628>, offered <07126> (8689) burnt offerings <05930> unto the God <0430> of Israel <03478>, twelve <08147> <06240> bullocks <06499> for all Israel <03478>, ninety <08673> and six <08337> rams <0352>, seventy <07657> and seven <07651> lambs <03532>, twelve <08147> <06240> he goats <06842> for a sin offering <02403>: all this was a burnt offering <05930> unto the LORD <03068>. Ezr 08:36 And they delivered <05414> (8799) the king’s <04428> commissions <01881> unto the king’s <04428> lieutenants <0323>, and to the governors <06346> on this side <05676> the river <05104>: and they furthered <05375> (8765) the people <05971>, and the house <01004> of God <0430>. Ezr 09:01 ¶ Now when these things were done <03615> (8763), the princes <08269> came <05066> (8738) to me, saying <0559> (8800), The people <05971> of Israel <03478>, and the priests <03548>, and the Levites <03881>, have not separated <0914> (8738) themselves from the people <05971> of the lands <0776>, doing according to their abominations <08441>, even of the Canaanites <03669>, the Hittites <02850>, the Perizzites <06522>, the Jebusites <02983>, the Ammonites <05984>, the Moabites <04125>, the Egyptians <04713>, and the Amorites <0567>. Ezr 09:02 For they have taken <05375> (8804) of their daughters <01323> for themselves, and for their sons <01121>: so that the holy <06944> seed <02233> have mingled <06148> (8694) themselves with the people <05971> of those lands <0776>: yea, the hand <03027> of the princes <08269> and rulers <05461> hath been chief <07223> in this trespass <04604>. Ezr 09:03 And when I heard <08085> (8800) this thing <01697>, I rent <07167> (8804) my garment <0899> and my mantle <04598>, and plucked off <04803> (8799) the hair <08181> of my head <07218> and of my beard <02206>, and sat down <03427> (8799) astonied <08074> (8789). Ezr 09:04 Then were assembled <0622> (8735) unto me every one that trembled <02730> at the words <01697> of the God <0430> of Israel <03478>, because of the transgression <04604> of those that had been carried away <01473>; and I sat <03427> (8802) astonied <08074> (8789) until the evening <06153> sacrifice <04503>. Ezr 09:05 ¶ And at the evening <06153> sacrifice <04503> I arose up <06965> (8804) from my heaviness <08589>; and having rent <07167> (8800) my garment <0899> and my mantle <04598>, I fell <03766> (8799) upon my knees <01290>, and spread out <06566> (8799) my hands <03709> unto the LORD <03068> my God <0430>, Ezr 09:06 And said <0559> (8799), O my God <0430>, I am ashamed <0954> (8804) and blush <03637> (8738) to lift up <07311> (8687) my face <06440> to thee, my God <0430>: for our iniquities <05771> are increased <07235> (8804) over <04605> our head <07218>, and our trespass <0819> is grown up <01431> (8804) unto the heavens <08064>. Ezr 09:07 Since the days <03117> of our fathers <01> have we been in a great <01419> trespass <0819> unto this day <03117>; and for our iniquities <05771> have we, our kings <04428>, and our priests <03548>, been delivered <05414> (8738) into the hand <03027> of the kings <04428> of the lands <0776>, to the sword <02719>, to captivity <07628>, and to a spoil <0961>, and to confusion <01322> of face <06440>, as it is this day <03117>. Ezr 09:08 And now for a little <04592> space <07281> grace <08467> hath been shewed from the LORD <03068> our God <0430>, to leave <07604> (8687) us a remnant to escape <06413>, and to give <05414> (8800) us a nail <03489> in his holy <06944> place <04725>, that our God <0430> may lighten <0215> (8687) our eyes <05869>, and give <05414> (8800) us a little <04592> reviving <04241> in our bondage <05659>. Ezr 09:09 For we were bondmen <05650>; yet our God <0430> hath not forsaken <05800> (8804) us in our bondage <05659>, but hath extended <05186> (8686) mercy <02617> unto us in the sight <06440> of the kings <04428> of Persia <06539>, to give <05414> (8800) us a reviving <04241>, to set up <07311> (8788) the house <01004> of our God <0430>, and to repair <05975> (8687) the desolations <02723> thereof, and to give <05414> (8800) us a wall <01447> in Judah <03063> and in Jerusalem <03389>. Ezr 09:10 And now, O our God <0430>, what shall we say <0559> (8799) after <0310> this? for we have forsaken <05800> (8804) thy commandments <04687>, Ezr 09:11 Which thou hast commanded <06680> (8765) by <03027> thy servants <05650> the prophets <05030>, saying <0559> (8800), The land <0776>, unto which ye go <0935> (8802) to possess <03423> (8800) it, is an unclean <05079> land <0776> with the filthiness <05079> of the people <05971> of the lands <0776>, with their abominations <08441>, which have filled <04390> (8765) it from one end <06310> to another <06310> with their uncleanness <02932>. Ezr 09:12 Now therefore give <05414> (8799) not your daughters <01323> unto their sons <01121>, neither take <05375> (8799) their daughters <01323> unto your sons <01121>, nor seek <01875> (8799) their peace <07965> or their wealth <02896> for <05704> ever <05769>: that ye may be strong <02388> (8799), and eat <0398> (8804) the good <02898> of the land <0776>, and leave it for an inheritance <03423> (8689) to your children <01121> for ever <05769>. Ezr 09:13 And after <0310> all that is come <0935> (8802) upon us for our evil <07451> deeds <04639>, and for our great <01419> trespass <0819>, seeing that thou our God <0430> hast punished <02820> (8804) us less <04295> than our iniquities <05771> deserve, and hast given <05414> (8804) us such deliverance <06413> as this; Ezr 09:14 Should we again <07725> (8799) break <06565> (8687) thy commandments <04687>, and join in affinity <02859> (8692) with the people <05971> of these abominations <08441>? wouldest not thou be angry <0599> (8799) with us till thou hadst consumed <03615> (8763) us, so that there should be no remnant <07611> nor escaping <06413>? Ezr 09:15 O LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478>, thou art righteous <06662>: for we remain <07604> (8738) yet escaped <06413>, as it is this day <03117>: behold, we are before <06440> thee in our trespasses <0819>: for we cannot stand <05975> (8800) before <06440> thee because of this. Ezr 10:01 ¶ Now when Ezra <05830> had prayed <06419> (8692), and when he had confessed <03034> (8692), weeping <01058> (8802) and casting himself down <05307> (8693) before <06440> the house <01004> of God <0430>, there assembled <06908> (8738) unto him out of Israel <03478> a very <03966> great <07227> congregation <06951> of men <0582> and women <0802> and children <03206>: for the people <05971> wept <01058> (8804) very <07235> (8687) sore <01059>. Ezr 10:02 And Shechaniah <07935> the son <01121> of Jehiel <03171>, one of the sons <01121> of Elam <05867>, answered <06030> (8799) and said <0559> (8799) unto Ezra <05830>, We have trespassed <04603> (8804) against our God <0430>, and have taken <03427> (8686) strange <05237> wives <0802> of the people <05971> of the land <0776>: yet now there is <03426> hope <04723> in Israel <03478> concerning this thing. Ezr 10:03 Now therefore let us make <03772> (8799) a covenant <01285> with our God <0430> to put away <03318> (8687) all the wives <0802>, and such as are born <03205> (8737) of them, according to the counsel <06098> of my lord <0136>, and of those that tremble <02730> at the commandment <04687> of our God <0430>; and let it be done <06213> (8735) according to the law <08451>. Ezr 10:04 Arise <06965> (8798); for this matter <01697> belongeth unto thee: we also will be with thee: be of good courage <02388> (8798), and do <06213> (8798) it. Ezr 10:05 Then arose <06965> (8799) Ezra <05830>, and made the chief <08269> priests <03548>, the Levites <03881>, and all Israel <03478>, to swear <07650> (8686) that they should do <06213> (8800) according to this word <01697>. And they sware <07650> (8735). Ezr 10:06 ¶ Then Ezra <05830> rose up <06965> (8799) from before <06440> the house <01004> of God <0430>, and went <03212> (8799) into the chamber <03957> of Johanan <03076> the son <01121> of Eliashib <0475>: and when he came <03212> (8799) thither, he did eat <0398> (8804) no bread <03899>, nor drink <08354> (8804) water <04325>: for he mourned <056> (8693) because of the transgression <04604> of them that had been carried away <01473>. Ezr 10:07 And they made proclamation <05674> (8686) <06963> throughout Judah <03063> and Jerusalem <03389> unto all the children <01121> of the captivity <01473>, that they should gather themselves together <06908> (8736) unto Jerusalem <03389>; Ezr 10:08 And that whosoever would not come <0935> (8799) within three <07969> days <03117>, according to the counsel <06098> of the princes <08269> and the elders <02205>, all his substance <07399> should be forfeited <02763> (8714), and himself separated <0914> (8735) from the congregation <06951> of those that had been carried away <01473>. Ezr 10:09 Then all the men <0582> of Judah <03063> and Benjamin <01144> gathered themselves together <06908> (8735) unto Jerusalem <03389> within three <07969> days <03117>. It was the ninth <08671> month <02320>, on the twentieth <06242> day of the month <02320>; and all the people <05971> sat <03427> (8799) in the street <07339> of the house <01004> of God <0430>, trembling <07460> (8688) because of this matter <01697>, and for the great rain <01653>. Ezr 10:10 And Ezra <05830> the priest <03548> stood up <06965> (8799), and said <0559> (8799) unto them, Ye have transgressed <04603> (8804), and have taken <03427> (8686) strange <05237> wives <0802>, to increase <03254> (8687) the trespass <0819> of Israel <03478>. Ezr 10:11 Now therefore make <05414> (8798) confession <08426> unto the LORD <03068> God <0430> of your fathers <01>, and do <06213> (8798) his pleasure <07522>: and separate <0914> (8734) yourselves from the people <05971> of the land <0776>, and from the strange <05237> wives <0802>. Ezr 10:12 Then all the congregation <06951> answered <06030> (8799) and said <0559> (8799) with a loud <01419> voice <06963>, As thou hast said <01697>, so must we do <06213> (8800). Ezr 10:13 But <061> the people <05971> are many <07227>, and it is a time <06256> of much rain <01653>, and we are not able <03581> to stand <05975> (8800) without <02351>, neither is this a work <04399> of one <0259> day <03117> or two <08147>: for we are many <07235> (8689) that have transgressed <06586> (8800) in this thing <01697>. Ezr 10:14 Let now our rulers <08269> of all the congregation <06951> stand <05975> (8799), and let all them which have taken <03427> (8689) strange <05237> wives <0802> in our cities <05892> come <0935> (8799) at appointed <02163> (8794) times <06256>, and with them the elders <02205> of every city <05892>, and the judges <08199> (8802) thereof, until the fierce <02740> wrath <0639> of our God <0430> for this matter <01697> be turned <07725> (8687) from us. Ezr 10:15 ¶ Only Jonathan <03129> the son <01121> of Asahel <06214> and Jahaziah <03167> the son <01121> of Tikvah <08616> were employed <05975> (8804) about this matter: and Meshullam <04918> and Shabbethai <07678> the Levite <03881> helped <05826> (8804) them. Ezr 10:16 And the children <01121> of the captivity <01473> did so <06213> (8799). And Ezra <05830> the priest <03548>, with certain <0582> chief <07218> of the fathers <01>, after the house <01004> of their fathers <01>, and all of them by their names <08034>, were separated <0914> (8735), and sat down <03427> (8799) in the first <0259> day <03117> of the tenth <06224> month <02320> to examine <01875> (8800) the matter <01697>. Ezr 10:17 And they made an end <03615> (8762) with all the men <0582> that had taken <03427> (8689) strange <05237> wives <0802> by the first <0259> day <03117> of the first <07223> month <02320>. Ezr 10:18 And among the sons <01121> of the priests <03548> there were found <04672> (8735) that had taken <03427> (8689) strange <05237> wives <0802>: namely, of the sons <01121> of Jeshua <03442> the son <01121> of Jozadak <03136>, and his brethren <0251>; Maaseiah <04641>, and Eliezer <0461>, and Jarib <03402>, and Gedaliah <01436>. Ezr 10:19 And they gave <05414> (8799) their hands <03027> that they would put away <03318> (8687) their wives <0802>; and being guilty <0818>, they offered a ram <0352> of the flock <06629> for their trespass <0819>. Ezr 10:20 And of the sons <01121> of Immer <0564>; Hanani <02607>, and Zebadiah <02069>.
