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 H3549s which are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail:

And the children of Israel, the H3549s, and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy,

And they set the H3549s in their divisions, and the Levites in their courses, for the service of God, which is at Jerusalem; as it is written in the book of Moses.

Artaxerxes, king of kings, unto Ezra the H3549, a scribe of the law of the God of heaven, perfect peace, and at such a time.

I make a decree, that all they of the people of Israel, and of his H3549s and Levites, in my realm, which are minded of their own freewill to go up to Jerusalem, go with thee.

And all the silver and gold that thou canst find in all the province of Babylon, with the freewill offering of the people, and of the H3549s, offering willingly for the house of their God which is in Jerusalem:

And I, even I Artaxerxes the king, do make a decree to all the treasurers which are beyond the river, that whatsoever Ezra the H3549, the scribe of the law of the God of heaven, shall require of you, it be done speedily,

Also we certify you, that touching any of the H3549s and Levites, singers, porters, Nethinims, or ministers of this house of God, it shall not be lawful to impose toll, tribute, or custom, upon them.
