There have been mighty kings also over Jerusalem, which have ruled over all countries beyond the river; and toll, tribute, and custom, was H3052 unto them.

But after that our fathers had provoked the God of heaven unto wrath, he gave them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, the Chaldean, who destroyed this house, and carried the people away into Babylon.

And the vessels also of gold and silver of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple that was in Jerusalem, and brought them into the temple of Babylon, those did Cyrus the king take out of the temple of Babylon, and they were H3052 unto one, whose name was Sheshbazzar, whom he had made governor;

Then came the same Sheshbazzar, and H3052 the foundation of the house of God which is in Jerusalem: and since that time even until now hath it been in building, and yet it is not finished.

With three rows of great stones, and a row of new timber: and let the expences be H3052n out of the king's house:

Moreover I make a decree what ye shall do to the elders of these Jews for the building of this house of God: that of the king's goods, even of the tribute beyond the river, forthwith expences be H3052n unto these men, that they be not hindered.

And that which they have need of, both young bullocks, and rams, and lambs, for the burnt offerings of the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the appointment of the priests which are at Jerusalem, let it be H3052n them day by day without fail:

The vessels also that are H3052n thee for the service of the house of thy God, those deliver thou before the God of Jerusalem.

And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he H3052th wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:

I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast H3052n me wisdom and might, and hast made known unto me now what we desired of thee: for thou hast now made known unto us the king's matter.
