*
To fulfil the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah ,
until the land had enjoyed her sabbaths :
for as long as she lay desolate she kept sabbath ,
to fulfil threescore and ten years .
*
Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia ,
that the word of the LORD spoken by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished ,
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 ,
*
Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia ,
All the kingdoms of the earth hath the LORD God of heaven given me ;
and he hath charged me to build him an house in Jerusalem ,
which is in Judah .
Who is there among you of all his people ?
The LORD his God be with him ,
and let him go up .
