|
|
21. Then I proclaimed a fast there at the river of Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek from Him the right way for us and our little ones and all our possessions.
|
21. Then I proclaimed H7121 a fast H6685 there H8033 , at H5921 the river H5104 of Ahava H163 , that we might afflict ourselves H6031 before H6440 our God H430 , to seek H1245 of H4480 him a right H3477 way H1870 for us , and for our little ones H2945 , and for all H3605 our substance H7399 .
|
|
22. For I was ashamed to request of the king an escort of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy on the road, because we had spoken to the king, saying, "The hand of our God is upon all those for good who seek Him, but His power and His wrath are against all those who forsake Him."
|
22. For H3588 I was ashamed H954 to require H7592 of H4480 the king H4428 a band of soldiers H2428 and horsemen H6571 to help H5826 us against the enemy H4480 H341 in the way H1870 : because H3588 we had spoken H559 unto the king H4428 , saying H559 , The hand H3027 of our God H430 is upon H5921 all H3605 them for good H2896 that seek H1245 him ; but his power H5797 and his wrath H639 is against H5921 all H3605 them that forsake H5800 him.
|
|
23. So we fasted and entreated our God for this, and He answered our prayer.
|
23. So we fasted H6684 and besought H1245 our God H4480 H430 for H5921 this H2063 : and he was entreated H6279 of us.
|
|
24. And I separated twelve of the leaders of the priests -- Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them --
|
24. Then I separated H914 twelve H8147 H6240 of the chief H4480 H8269 of the priests H3548 , Sherebiah H8274 , Hashabiah H2811 , and ten H6235 of their brethren H4480 H251 with H5973 them,
|
|
25. and weighed out to them the silver, the gold, and the articles, the offering for the house of our God which the king and his counselors and his princes, and all Israel who were present, had offered.
|
25. And weighed H8254 unto them H853 the silver H3701 , and the gold H2091 , and the vessels H3627 , even the offering H8641 of the house H1004 of our God H430 , which the king H4428 , and his counselors H3289 , and his lords H8269 , and all H3605 Israel H3478 there present H4672 , had offered H7311 :
|
|
26. I weighed into their hand six hundred and fifty talents of silver, silver articles weighing one hundred talents, one hundred talents of gold,
|
26. I even weighed H8254 unto H5921 their hand H3027 six H8337 hundred H3967 and fifty H2572 talents H3603 of silver H3701 , and silver H3701 vessels H3627 a hundred H3967 talents H3603 , and of gold H2091 a hundred H3967 talents H3603 ;
|
|
27. twenty gold basins worth a thousand drachmas, and two vessels of fine polished bronze, precious as gold.
|
27. Also twenty H6242 basins H3713 of gold H2091 , of a thousand H505 drams H150 ; and two H8147 vessels H3627 of fine H6668 H2896 copper H5178 , precious H2530 as gold H2091 .
|
|
28. And I said to them, "You are holy to the LORD; the articles are holy also; and the silver and the gold are a freewill offering to the LORD God of your fathers.
|
28. And I said H559 unto H413 them, Ye H859 are holy H6944 unto the LORD H3068 ; the vessels H3627 are holy H6944 also ; and the silver H3701 and the gold H2091 are a freewill offering H5071 unto the LORD H3068 God H430 of your fathers H1 .
|
|
29. "Watch and keep them until you weigh them before the leaders of the priests and the Levites and heads of the fathers' houses of Israel in Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of the LORD."
|
29. Watch H8245 ye , and keep H8104 them , until H5704 ye weigh H8254 them before H6440 the chief H8269 of the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 , and chief H8269 of the fathers H1 of Israel H3478 , at Jerusalem H3389 , in the chambers H3957 of the house H1004 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
30. So the priests and the Levites received the silver and the gold and the articles by weight, to bring them to Jerusalem to the house of our God.
|
30. So took H6901 the priests H3548 and the Levites H3881 the weight H4948 of the silver H3701 , and the gold H2091 , and the vessels H3627 , to bring H935 them to Jerusalem H3389 unto the house H1004 of our God H430 .
|
|
31. Then we departed from the river of Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go to Jerusalem. And the hand of our God was upon us, and He delivered us from the hand of the enemy and from ambush along the road.
|
31. Then we departed H5265 from the river H4480 H5104 of Ahava H163 on the twelfth H8147 H6240 day of the first H7223 month H2320 , to go H1980 unto Jerusalem H3389 : and the hand H3027 of our God H430 was H1961 upon H5921 us , and he delivered H5337 us from the hand H4480 H3709 of the enemy H341 , and of such as lay in wait H693 by H5921 the way H1870 .
|
|
32. So we came to Jerusalem, and stayed there three days.
|
32. And we came H935 to Jerusalem H3389 , and abode H3427 there H8033 three H7969 days H3117 .
|
|
33. Now on the fourth day the silver and the gold and the articles were weighed in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest, and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas; with them were the Levites, Jozabad the son of Jeshua and Noadiah the son of Binnui,
|
33. Now on the fourth H7243 day H3117 was the silver H3701 and the gold H2091 and the vessels H3627 weighed H8254 in the house H1004 of our God H430 by H5921 the hand H3027 of Meremoth H4822 the son H1121 of Uriah H223 the priest H3548 ; and with H5973 him was Eleazar H499 the son H1121 of Phinehas H6372 ; and with H5973 them was Jozabad H3107 the son H1121 of Jeshua H3442 , and Noadiah H5129 the son H1121 of Binnui H1131 , Levites H3881 ;
|
|
34. with the number and weight of everything. All the weight was written down at that time.
|
34. By number H4557 and by weight H4948 of every one H3605 : and all H3605 the weight H4948 was written H3789 at that H1931 time H6256 .
|
|
35. The children of those who had been carried away captive, who had come from the captivity, offered burnt offerings to the God of Israel: twelve bulls for all Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, and twelve male goats as a sin offering. All this was a burnt offering to the LORD.
|
35. Also the children H1121 of those that had been carried away H1473 , which were come H935 out of the captivity H4480 H7628 , offered H7126 burnt offerings H5930 unto the God H430 of Israel H3478 , twelve H8147 H6240 bullocks H6499 for H5921 all H3605 Israel H3478 , ninety H8673 and six H8337 rams H352 , seventy H7657 and seven H7651 lambs H3532 , twelve H8147 H6240 he goats H6842 for a sin offering H2403 : all H3605 this was a burnt offering H5930 unto the LORD H3068 .
|
|
36. And they delivered the king's orders to the king's satraps and the governors in the region beyond the River. So they gave support to the people and the house of God.
|
36. And they delivered H5414 H853 the king H4428 's commissions H1881 unto the king H4428 's lieutenants H323 , and to the governors H6346 on this side H5676 the river H5104 : and they furthered H5375 H853 the people H5971 , and the house H1004 of God H430 .
