1 Esdras 8:8-10

Wycliffe Bible

⁸ They forsooth that write the writings of king Artaxerxes, coming nigh, took writing that (or Now regarding the ordinance, or the decree), that came from king Artaxerxes to Ezra, the priest, and reader of the law of the Lord, the ensample of the which thing written is set next after [or of which thing the example is laid under(neath)].

⁹ King Artaxerxes to Ezra, the priest, and reader of the law of the Lord, sendeth greeting(s).

¹⁰ More benign I deeming also to benefits, commanded to them that desire of the folk of (the) Jews their own things willfully (or willingly), and of the priests, and of (the) deacons [or of Levites], that be in my realm, to fellowship with thee into Jerusalem.
