Ezra 8:30-32

New International Reader's Version

³⁰ Then the priests and Levites received the silver and gold and sacred objects. All of them had been weighed out. They were going to be taken to the house of our God in Jerusalem.

³¹ On the 12th day of the first month we started out. We left the canal that flows toward Ahava. And we headed for Jerusalem. Our God helped us. He kept us safe from enemies and robbers along the way. ³² So we arrived in Jerusalem. There we rested for three days.
