And I gathered them to the river that comes to Evi, and we encamped there three days: and I reviewed the people and the priests, and found none of the sons of Levi there. |

8:15 ¶
And I gathered them together°°
to°
the river°
that runneth°°
to°
Ahava;°
and there°
abode we in tents°°
three°
days:°
and I viewed°°
the people,°
and the priests,°
and found°°
there°
none°
of the sons°°
of Levi.° |
8:16

8:17
And I sent°°
them with commandment°°°°
unto°
Iddo°
the chief°

they should say°°
unto°
Iddo,°

at the place°
Casiphia,°
that they should bring°°
unto us ministers°°

And I proclaimed there a fast, at the river Aue, that [we] should humble ourselves before our God, to seek of him a straight way for us, and for our children, and for all our property. |
|
8:21 ¶
Then I proclaimed°°
a fast°
there,°
at°
the river°
of Ahava,°
that we might afflict°°
ourselves°
before°
our Elohim,°
to seek°°
of°
him a right°
way°
for us, and for our little ones,°
and for all°
our substance.° |
8:22
For I was ashamed to ask of the king a guard and horsemen to save us from the enemy in the way: for we had spoken to the king, saying, The hand of our God [is] upon all that seek him, for good; but his power and his wrath [are] upon all that forsake him. |
|
8:22
For°
I was ashamed°°
to require°°
of°
the king°
a band of soldiers°
and horsemen°
to help°°
us against the enemy°°°
in the way:°
because°
we had spoken°°
unto the king,°
saying,°°
The hand°
of our Elohim°
[is] upon°
all°
them for good°
that seek°°
him; but his power°
and his wrath°
[is] against°
all°
them that forsake°°
him. |
8:23
So we fasted, and asked of our God concerning this; and he hearkened to us. |
|
8:23
So we fasted°°
and besought°°
our Elohim°°
for°
this:°
and he was intreated°°
of us. |
8:24 ¶
And I gave charge to twelve of the chiefs of the priests, to Seraiah{gr.Saraia}, to Hashabiah{gr.Asabia}, and ten of their brethren with them. |
|
8:24 ¶
Then I separated°°
twelve°°
of the chief°°
of the priests,°
Sherebiah,°
Hashabiah,°
and ten°
of their brethren°°
with°
them, |
8:25
And I weighed to them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of the first-fruits of the house of our God, which the king, and his councillors, and his princes, and all Israel that were found, had dedicated. |
|
8:25
And weighed°°
unto them°
the silver,°
and the gold,°
and the vessels,°
[even] the offering°
of the house°
of our Elohim,°
which the king,°
and his counsellors,°°
and his lords,°
and all°
Israel°
[there] present,°°
had offered:°° |
8:26
I even weighed into their hands six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and a hundred silver vessels, and a hundred talents of gold; |
|
8:26
I even weighed°°
unto°
their hand°
six°
hundred°
and fifty°
talents°
of silver,°
and silver°
vessels°
an hundred°
talents,°
[and] of gold°
an hundred°
talents;° |
8:27
and twenty golden bowls, [weighing] about a thousand drachms, and superior vessels of fine shining brass, [precious] as gold. |
|
8:27
Also twenty°
basons°
of gold,°
of a thousand°
drams;°
and two°
vessels°
of fine°°°
copper,°
precious°°
as gold.° |
8:28
And I said to them, Ye [are] holy to the Lord; and the vessels [are] holy; and the silver and the gold are freewill-offerings to the Lord God of our fathers. |
|
8:28
And I said°°
unto°
them, Ye°
[are] holy°
unto Yahweh;°
the vessels°
[are] holy°
also; and the silver°
and the gold°
[are] a freewill offering°
unto Yahweh°
Elohim°
of your fathers.° |
8:29
Be watchful and keep them, until ye weigh [them] before the chief priests and the Levites, and the chiefs of families in Jerusalem, at the chambers of the house of the Lord. |
|
8:29
Watch°°
ye, and keep°°
[them], until°
ye weigh°°
[them] before°
the chief°
of the priests°
and the Levites,°
and chief°
of the fathers°
of Israel,°
at Jerusalem,°
in the chambers°
of the house°
of Yahweh.° |
8:30
So the priests and the Levites took the weight of the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, to bring to Jerusalem into the house of our God. |
|
8:30
So took°°
the priests°
and the Levites°
the weight°
of the silver,°
and the gold,°
and the vessels,°
to bring°°
[them] to Jerusalem°
unto the house°
of our Elohim.° |
8:31 ¶
And we departed from the river of Aue on the twelfth day of the first month, to come to Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and delivered us from the hand of the enemy and adversary in the way. |
|
8:31 ¶
Then we departed°°
from the river°°
of Ahava°
on the twelfth°°
[day] of the first°
month,°
to go°°°
unto Jerusalem:°
and the hand°
of our Elohim°
was°
upon°
us, and he delivered°°
us from the hand°°
of the enemy,°°
and of such as lay in wait°°
by°
the way.° |
8:32
And we came to Jerusalem, and abode there three days. |
|
8:32
And we came°°
to Jerusalem,°
and abode°°
there°
three°
days.° |
8:33 ¶
And it came to pass on the fourth day that we weighed the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, in the house of our God, into the hand of Merimoth the son of Uriah{gr.Uria} the priest; and with him [was] Eleazar the son of Phinehas{gr.Phinees}, and with them Jozabad the son of Jeshua{gr.Jesus}, and Noadia the son of Benaiah{gr.Banaia}, the Levites. |

and with°
them [was] Jozabad°
the son°
of Jeshua,°
and Noadiah°
the son°
of Binnui,°
Levites;° |
8:34
All things [were reckoned] by number and weight, and the whole weight was written [down]. |
|
8:34
By number°
[and] by weight°
of every one:°
and all°
the weight°
was written°°
at that°
time.° |
8:35
At that time the children of the banishment that came from the captivity offered whole-burnt-offerings to the God of Israel, twelve calves for all Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, twelve goats for a sin-offering; all whole-burnt-offerings to the Lord. |
|
8:35
[Also] the children°
of those that had been carried away,°
which were come°
out°°
of the captivity,°°
offered°°
burnt offerings°
unto the Elohim°
of Israel,°

And they gave the king's mandate to the king's lieutenants, and the governors beyond the river: and they honoured the people and the house of God. |
|
8:36 ¶
And they delivered°°°
the king's°
commissions°

lieutenants,°
and to the governors°
on this side°
the river:°
and they furthered°°°
the people,°
