From the book of Ezra:
1:1 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the
LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah might be fulfilled, the LORD stirred up the spirit
of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom,
and [put it] also in writing, saying,
1:2 Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, The LORD God of
heaven hath given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he hath charged me to
build him an house at Jerusalem, which [is] in Judah.
1:3 Who [is there] among you of all his people? his God be with him, and let him
go up to Jerusalem, which [is] in Judah, and build the
house of the LORD God of Israel, (he [is] the God,) which [is] in Jerusalem.
1:4 And whosoever remaineth in any place where he sojourneth, let the men of his
place help him with silver, and with gold, and with goods, and with beasts,
beside the freewill offering for the house of God that [is] in Jerusalem.
1:5 Then rose up the chief of the fathers of Judah and Benjamin, and the
priests, and the Levites, with all [them] whose spirit God had raised,
to go up to build the house of the LORD which [is] in
Jerusalem.
1:6 And all they that [were] about them strengthened their hands with vessels of
silver, with gold, with goods, and with beasts, and with precious things, beside
all [that] was willingly offered.
1:7 Also Cyrus the king brought forth the vessels of the
house of the LORD, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought forth out of Jerusalem, and
had put them in the house of his gods;
1:8 Even those did Cyrus king of Persia bring forth by the hand of Mithredath
the treasurer, and numbered them unto Sheshbazzar, the prince of Judah.
1:9 And this [is] the number of them: thirty chargers of gold, a thousand
chargers of silver, nine and twenty knives,
1:10 Thirty basins of gold, silver basins of a second [sort] four hundred and
ten, [and] other vessels a thousand.
1:11 All the vessels of gold and of silver [were] five
thousand and four hundred. All [these] did Sheshbazzar bring up with [them of]
the captivity that were brought up from Babylon unto Jerusalem.
