Ezra 8:23-25

Evangelical Heritage Version

²³ So we fasted and we sought help from our God concerning this, and he granted our request.

²⁴ Then I set apart twelve of the leading priests to be with Sherebiah and Hashabiah and ten of their brothers with them. ²⁵ I weighed out for them the silver and the gold and the vessels—the special contribution for the house of our God, which had been contributed by the king and his advisors and officials and by all the Israelites who were present there.
