@ For I was
ashamed
to
require
of the
king
a band of
soldiers
and
horsemen
to
help
us against the
enemy
in the
way
: because we had
spoken
unto the
king
,
saying
, The
hand
of our
God
is upon all them for
good
that
seek
him; but his
power
and his
wrath
is against all them that
forsake
him.
strkjv@Ezra:8:23
@ So we
fasted
and
besought
our
God
for this: and he was
intreated
of us.
strkjv@Ezra:8:24
@ Then I
separated
twelve
sh@
of the
chief
of the
priests
,
Sherebiah
,
Hashabiah
, and
ten
of their
brethren
with them,
strkjv@Ezra:8:25
@ And
weighed
unto them the
silver
, and the
gold
, and the
vessels
, even the
offering
of the
house
of our
God
, which the
king
, and his
counsellors
, and his
lords
, and all
Israel
there
present
, had
offered
:
strkjv@Ezra:8:26
@ I even
weighed
unto their
hand
six
hundred
and
fifty
talents
of
silver
, and
silver
vessels
an
hundred
talents
, and of
gold
an
hundred
talents
;
strkjv@Ezra:8:27
@ Also
twenty
basons
of
gold
, of a
thousand
drams
; and
two
vessels
of
fine
copper
,
precious
as
gold
.
strkjv@Ezra:8:28
@ And I
said
unto them, Ye are
holy
unto the
LORD
; the
vessels
are
holy
also; and the
silver
and the
gold
are a freewill
offering
unto the
LORD
God
of your
fathers
.
strkjv@Ezra:8:29
@
Watch
ye, and
keep
them, until ye
weigh
them
before
the
chief
of the
priests
and the
Levites
, and
chief
of the
fathers
of
Israel
, at
Jerusalem
, in the
chambers
of the
house
of the
LORD
.
strkjv@Ezra:8:30
@ So
took
the
priests
and the
Levites
the
weight
of the
silver
, and the
gold
, and the
vessels
, to
bring
them to
Jerusalem
unto the
house
of our
God
.
strkjv@Ezra:8:31
@ Then we
departed
from the
river
of
Ahava
on the
twelfth
sh@
day of the
first
month
, to
go
unto
Jerusalem
: and the
hand
of our
God
was upon us, and he
delivered
us from the
hand
of the
enemy
, and of such as lay in
wait
by the
way
.
