Ezra 1:4-6

Lexham English Bible

⁴ And let every survivor, from wherever he resides^[a] be assisted by the men of that place with silver and gold, with possessions and domestic animals, and with the freewill offering for the house of God which is in Jerusalem.”

⁵ So the heads of the families^[b] for Judah and Benjamin, and the priests and the Levites—to all whose spirit God had stirred—prepared to go up and build the house of Yahweh which is in Jerusalem. ⁶ And all of their neighbors helped them^[c] with objects of silver, gold, possessions, domestic animals, and with valuable gifts—besides all of the freewill offering.
