Ezra 8:27-29
New Catholic Bible
27 twenty gold bowls worth one thousand darics, and two superb vessels of polished bronze, as precious as gold.
28 Then I said to them: “You are consecrated to the Lord, as are the utensils. The silver and the gold are a free-will offering to the Lord, the God of your fathers. 29 Guard them carefully until you weigh them out to the leading priests, the Levites, and the heads of the families of Israel in Jerusalem within the chambers of the house of the Lord.”
