The Koine Bible

And in the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, for the word of the Lord from the mouth of Jeremiah to be accomplished, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of the Persians, and he gave an order by voice throughout all his kingdom and also in writing, saying:

Thus said Cyrus king of the Persians: The Lord God of heaven has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, and he himself has looked upon me to build for him a house in Jerusalem, the one in Judea.

Who among you is from all his people, and his God shall be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem, the one in Judea, and let him build the house of God of Israel; he himself is the God who is in Jerusalem

and everyone who is left from all the places where he sojourns there, the men of his place shall take him with silver and gold and baggage and livestock, together with the voluntary offering, to the house of God that is in Jerusalem

And the leaders of the fathers’ houses of Judah and Benjamin arose, and the priests and the Levites, all whose spirit God had stirred up to go up to build the house of the Lord, which is in Jerusalem.

and all those round about strengthened with their hands, with vessels of silver, with gold, with baggage, and with cattle, and with gifts, apart from those in freewill offerings

And King Cyrus brought out the vessels of the house of the Lord, which Nebuchadnezzar had taken from Jerusalem, and he gave them in the house of his god.

And Cyrus king of the Persians brought them out by the hand of Mithradates, the treasurer, and counted them to Sheshbazzar, the ruler of Judah.

and this was their number: golden bowls thirty, and silver bowls one thousand, twenty-nine varied ones

golden bowls, thirty, and silver, two hundred, and other vessels, a thousand

All the vessels of gold and of silver were five thousand four hundred in all, those going up with Sheshbazzar from the captivity out of Babylon to Jerusalem.
