1 Esdras 4:44-46
Revised Standard Version
44 and to send back all the vessels that were taken from Jerusalem, which Cyrus set apart when he began[a] to destroy Babylon, and vowed to send them back there. 45 You also vowed to build the temple, which the E′domites burned when Judea was laid waste by the Chalde′ans. 46 And now, O lord the king, this is what I ask and request of you, and this befits your greatness. I pray therefore that you fulfil the vow whose fulfilment you vowed to the King of heaven with your own lips.”
