apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:18 @ And whatsoever thing else thou shalt remember for the use of the temple of thy God, thou shalt give it out of the king's treasury.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:19 @ And I king Artexerxes have also commanded the keepers of the treasures in Syria and Phenice, that whatsoever Esdras the priest and the reader of the law of the most high God shall send for, they should give it him with speed,
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:22 @ I command you also, that ye require no tax, nor any other imposition, of any of the priests, or Levites, or holy singers, or porters, or ministers of the temple, or of any that have doings in this temple, and that no man have authority to impose any thing upon them.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:23 @ And thou, Esdras, according to the wisdom of God ordain judges and justices, that they may judge in all Syria and Phenice all those that know the law of thy God; and those that know it not thou shalt teach.

apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:50 @ And there I vowed a fast unto the young men before our Lord, to desire of him a prosperous journey both for us and them that were with us, for our children, and for the cattle:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:52 @ For we had said unto the king, that the power of the Lord our God should be with them that seek him, to support them in all ways.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:54 @ Then I separated twelve of the chief of the priests, Esebrias, and Assanias, and ten men of their brethren with them:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:56 @ And when I had weighed it, I delivered unto them six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels of an hundred talents, and an hundred talents of gold,
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:57 @ And twenty golden vessels, and twelve vessels of brass, even of fine brass, glittering like gold.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:59 @ Watch ye, and keep them till ye deliver them to the chief of the priests and Levites, and to the principal men of the families of Israel, in Jerusalem, into the chambers of the house of our God.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:60 @ So the priests and the Levites, who had received the silver and the gold and the vessels, brought them unto Jerusalem, into the temple of the Lord.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:61 @ And from the river Theras we departed the twelfth day of the first month, and came to Jerusalem by the mighty hand of our Lord, which was with us: and from the beginning of our journey the Lord delivered us from every enemy, and so we came to Jerusalem.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:63 @ And with him was Eleazar the son of Phinees, and with them were Josabad the son of Jesu and Moeth the son of Sabban, Levites: all was delivered them by number and weight.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:64 @ And all the weight of them was written up the same hour.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:65 @ Moreover they that were come out of the captivity offered sacrifice unto the Lord God of Israel, even twelve bullocks for all Israel, fourscore and sixteen rams,
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:69 @ The nation of Israel, the princes, the priests and Levites, have not put away from them the strange people of the land, nor the pollutions of the Gentiles to wit, of the Canaanites, Hittites, Pheresites, Jebusites, and the Moabites, Egyptians, and Edomites.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:70 @ For both they and their sons have married with their daughters, and the holy seed is mixed with the strange people of the land; and from the beginning of this matter the rulers and the great men have been partakers of this iniquity.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:72 @ So all they that were then moved at the word of the Lord God of Israel assembled unto me, whilst I mourned for the iniquity: but I sat still full of heaviness until the evening sacrifice.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:73 @ Then rising up from the fast with my clothes and the holy garment rent, and bowing my knees, and stretching forth my hands unto the Lord,
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:77 @ And for our sins and our fathers' we with our brethren and our kings and our priests were given up unto the kings of the earth, to the sword, and to captivity, and for a prey with shame, unto this day.

apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:83 @ That the land, which ye enter into to possess as an heritage, is a land polluted with the pollutions of the strangers of the land, and they have filled it with their uncleanness.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:84 @ Therefore now shall ye not join your daughters unto their sons, neither shall ye take their daughters unto your sons.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:85 @ Moreover ye shall never seek to have peace with them, that ye may be strong, and eat the good things of the land, and that ye may leave the inheritance of the land unto your children for evermore.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:87 @ And didst give unto us such a root: but we have turned back again to transgress thy law, and to mingle ourselves with the uncleanness of the nations of the land.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:88 @ Mightest not thou be angry with us to destroy us, till thou hadst left us neither root, seed, nor name?
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:90 @ Behold, now are we before thee in our iniquities, for we cannot stand any longer by reason of these things before thee.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:91 @ And as Esdras in his prayer made his confession, weeping, and lying flat upon the ground before the temple, there gathered unto him from Jerusalem a very great multitude of men and women and children: for there was great weeping among the multitude.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:93 @ Let us make an oath to the Lord, that we will put away all our wives, which we have taken of the heathen, with their children,
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:95 @ Arise and put in execution: for to thee doth this matter appertain, and we will be with thee: do valiantly.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:96 @ So Esdras arose, and took an oath of the chief of the priests and Levites of all Israel to do after these things; and so they sware.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:2 @ And remained there, and did eat no meat nor drink water, mourning for the great iniquities of the multitude.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:3 @ And there was a proclamation in all Jewry and Jerusalem to all them that were of the captivity, that they should be gathered together at Jerusalem:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:4 @ And that whosoever met not there within two or three days according as the elders that bare rule appointed, their cattle should be seized to the use of the temple, and himself cast out from them that were of the captivity.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:6 @ And all the multitude sat trembling in the broad court of the temple because of the present foul weather.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:10 @ Then cried the whole multitude, and said with a loud voice, Like as thou hast spoken, so will we do.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:11 @ But forasmuch as the people are many, and it is foul weather, so that we cannot stand without, and this is not a work of a day or two, seeing our sin in these things is spread far:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:12 @ Therefore let the rulers of the multitude stay, and let all them of our habitations that have strange wives come at the time appointed,
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:13 @ And with them the rulers and judges of every place, till we turn away the wrath of the Lord from us for this matter.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:15 @ And they that were of the captivity did according to all these things.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:23 @ And of the Levites; Jozabad, and Semis, and Colius, who was called Calitas, and Patheus, and Judas, and Jonas.

apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:36 @ All these had taken strange wives, and they put them away with their children.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:37 @ And the priests and Levites, and they that were of Israel, dwelt in Jerusalem, and in the country, in the first day of the seventh month: so the children of Israel were in their habitations.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:38 @ And the whole multitude came together with one accord into the broad place of the holy porch toward the east:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:40 @ So Esdras the chief priest brought the law unto the whole multitude from man to woman, and to all the priests, to hear law in the first day of the seventh month.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:41 @ And he read in the broad court before the holy porch from morning unto midday, before both men and women; and the multitude gave heed unto the law.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:42 @ And Esdras the priest and reader of the law stood up upon a pulpit of wood, which was made for that purpose.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:45 @ Then took Esdras the book of the law before the multitude: for he sat honourably in the first place in the sight of them all.
