1:1

Now in the first
<0259>

year
<08141>

of Cyrus
<03566>

king
<04428>

of Persia
<06539>_,

that the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

by the mouth
<06310>

of Jeremiah
<03414>

might be fulfilled
<03615> (8800)_,

the LORD
<03068>

stirred up
<05782> (8689)

the spirit
<07307>

of Cyrus
<03566>

king
<04428>

of Persia
<06539>_,

that he made a proclamation
<05674> (8686) <06963>

throughout all his kingdom
<04438>_,

and [put it] also in writing
<04385>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

{made...: Heb. caused a voice to pass}

1:2

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

Cyrus
<03566>

king
<04428>

of Persia
<06539>_,

The LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of heaven
<08064>

hath given
<05414> (8804)

me all the kingdoms
<04467>

of the earth
<0776>_;

and he hath charged
<06485> (8804)

me to build
<01129> (8800)

him an house
<01004>

at Jerusalem
<03389>_,

which [is] in Judah
<03063>_.

1:3

Who [is there] among you of all his people
<05971>_?

his God
<0430>

be with him, and let him go up
<05927> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_,

which [is] in Judah
<03063>_,

and build
<01129> (8799)

the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

(he [is] the God
<0430>,)

which [is] in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

1:4

And whosoever remaineth
<07604> (8737)

in any place
<04725>

where he sojourneth
<01481> (8802)_,

let the men
<0582>

of his place
<04725>

help
<05375> (8762)

him with silver
<03701>_,

and with gold
<02091>_,

and with goods
<07399>_,

and with beasts
<0929>_,

beside the freewill offering
<05071>

for the house
<01004>

of God
<0430>

that [is] in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

{help...: Heb. lift him up}

1:5

Then rose up
<06965> (8799)

the chief
<07218>

of the fathers
<01>

of Judah
<03063>

and Benjamin
<01144>_,

and the priests
<03548>_,

and the Levites
<03881>_,

with all [them] whose spirit
<07307>

God
<0430>

had raised
<05782> (8689)_,

to go up
<05927> (8800)

to build
<01129> (8800)

the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>

which [is] in Jerusalem
<03389>_.

1:6

And all they that [were] about
<05439>

them strengthened
<02388> (8765)

their hands
<03027>

with vessels
<03627>

of silver
<03701>_,

with gold
<02091>_,

with goods
<07399>_,

and with beasts
<0929>_,

and with precious things
<04030>_,

beside all [that] was willingly offered
<05068> (8692)_.

{strengthened...: that is, helped them}

1:7

Also Cyrus
<03566>

the king
<04428>

brought forth
<03318> (8689)

the vessels
<03627>

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which Nebuchadnezzar
<05019>

had brought forth
<03318> (8689)

out of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and had put
<05414> (8799)

them in the house
<01004>

of his gods
<0430>_;

1:8

Even those did Cyrus
<03566>

king
<04428>

of Persia
<06539>

bring forth
<03318> (8686)

by the hand
<03027>

of Mithredath
<04990>

the treasurer
<01489>_,

and numbered
<05608> (8799)

them unto Sheshbazzar
<08339>_,

the prince
<05387>

of Judah
<03063>_.

1:9

And this [is] the number
<04557>

of them: thirty
<07970>

chargers
<0105>

of gold
<02091>_,

a thousand
<0505>

<0105>

of silver

Thirty

[sort] four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

and ten
<06235>_,

[and] other
<0312>

<03627>

and of silver
<03701>

All [these] did Sheshbazzar
