neither shall it be dwelt{H7931}{(H8799)} in from generation{H1755} to generation{H1755}. 40 As God{H430} overthrew{H4114} Sodom{H5467} and Gomorrah{H6017} and the neighbour{H7934} cities thereof, saith{H5002}{(H8803)} the LORD{H3068};

- Ezra 1:1-9 : 1 Now in the first{H259} year{H8141} of Cyrus{H3566} king{H4428} of Persia{H6539}, that the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068} by the mouth{H6310} of Jeremiah{H3414} might be fulfilled{H3615}{(H8800)}, the LORD{H3068} stirred up{H5782}{(H8689)} the spirit{H7307} of Cyrus{H3566} king{H4428} of Persia{H6539}, that he made a proclamation{H5674}{(H8686)}{H6963} throughout all his kingdom{H4438}, and put it also in writing{H4385}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, 2 Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} Cyrus{H3566} king{H4428} of Persia{H6539}, The LORD{H3068} God{H430} of heaven{H8064} hath given{H5414}{(H8804)} me all the kingdoms{H4467} of the earth{H776}; and he hath charged{H6485}{(H8804)} me to build{H1129}{(H8800)} him an house{H1004} at Jerusalem{H3389}, which is in Judah{H3063}. 3 Who is there among you of all his people{H5971}? His God{H430} be with him, and let him go up{H5927}{(H8799)} to Jerusalem{H3389}, which is in Judah{H3063}, and build{H1129}{(H8799)} the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478},(he{H1931} is the God{H430},) which is in Jerusalem{H3389}. 4 And whosoever remaineth{H7604}{(H8737)} in any place{H4725} where he sojourneth{H1481}{(H8802)}, let the men{H582} of his place{H4725} help{H5375}{(H8762)} him with silver{H3701}, and with gold{H2091}, and with goods{H7399}, and with beasts{H929}, beside the freewill offering{H5071} for the house{H1004} of God{H430} that is in Jerusalem{H3389}. 5 Then rose up{H6965}{(H8799)} the chief{H7218} of the fathers{H1} of Judah{H3063} and Benjamin{H1144}, and the priests{H3548}, and the Levites{H3881}, with all them whose spirit{H7307} God{H430} had raised{H5782}{(H8689)}, to go up{H5927}{(H8800)} to build{H1129}{(H8800)} the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068} which is in Jerusalem{H3389}. 6 And all they that were about{H5439} them strengthened{H2388}{(H8765)} their hands{H3027} with vessels{H3627} of silver{H3701}, with gold{H2091}, with goods{H7399}, and with beasts{H929}, and with precious things{H4030}, beside all that was willingly offered{H5068}{(H8692)}. 7 Also Cyrus{H3566} the king{H4428} brought forth{H3318}{(H8689)} the vessels{H3627} of the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}, which Nebuchadnezzar{H5019} had brought forth{H3318}{(H8689)} out of Jerusalem{H3389}, and had put{H5414}{(H8799)} them in the house{H1004} of his gods{H430}; 8 Even those did Cyrus{H3566} king{H4428} of Persia{H6539} bring forth{H3318}{(H8686)} by the hand{H3027} of Mithredath{H4990} the treasurer{H1489}, and numbered{H5608}{(H8799)} them unto Sheshbazzar{H8339}, the prince{H5387} of Judah{H3063}. 9 And this is the number{H4557} of them: thirty{H7970} chargers{H105} of gold{H2091}, a thousand{H505} chargers{H105} of silver{H3701}, nine{H8672} and twenty{H6242} knives{H4252}, 10 Thirty{H7970} basons{H3713} of gold{H2091}, silver{H3701} basons{H3713} of a second{H4932} sort four{H702} hundred{H3967} and ten{H6235}, and other{H312} vessels{H3627} a thousand{H505}. 11 All the vessels{H3627} of gold{H2091} and of silver{H3701} were five{H2568} thousand{H505} and four{H702} hundred{H3967}. All these did Sheshbazzar{H8339} bring up{H5927}{(H8689)} with them of the captivity{H1473} that were brought up{H5927}{(H8736)} from Babylon{H894} unto Jerusalem{H3389}.
- Ezra 6:1-9 : 1 Then{H116} Darius{H1868} the king{H4430} made{H7761}{(H8754)} a decree{H2942}, and search{H1240}{(H8745)} was made in the house{H1005} of the rolls{H5609}, where{H8536} the treasures{H1596} were laid up{H5182}{(H8683)} in Babylon{H895}. 2 And there was found{H7912}{(H8728)} at Achmetha{H307}, in the palace{H1001} that is in the province{H4083} of the Medes{H4076}, a{H2298} roll{H4040}, and therein{H1459} was a record{H1799} thus{H3652} written{H3790}{(H8752)}: 3 In the first{H2298} year{H8140} of Cyrus{H3567} the king{H4430} the same Cyrus{H3567} the king{H4430} made{H7761}{(H8754)} a decree{H2942} concerning the house{H1005} of God{H426} at Jerusalem{H3390}, Let the house{H1005} be builded{H1124}{(H8731)}, the place{H870} where they offered{H1684}{(H8751)} sacrifices{H1685}, and let the foundations{H787} thereof be strongly laid{H5446}{(H8775)}; the height{H7314} thereof threescore{H8361} cubits{H521}, and the breadth{H6613} thereof threescore{H8361} cubits{H521}; 4 With three{H8532} rows{H5073} of great{H1560} stones{H69}, and a row{H5073} of new{H2323} timber{H636}: and let the expenses{H5313} be given{H3052}{(H8725)} out of{H4481} the king's{H4430} house{H1005}: 5 And also{H638} let the golden{H1722} and silver{H3702} vessels{H3984} of the house{H1005} of God{H426}, which Nebuchadnezzar{H5020} took forth{H5312}{(H8684)} out of{H4481} the temple{H1965} which is at Jerusalem{H3390}, and brought{H2987}{(H8684)} unto Babylon{H895}, be restored{H8421}{(H8681)}, and brought again{H1946}{(H8748)} unto the temple{H1965} which is at Jerusalem{H3390}, every one to his place{H870}, and place{H5182}{(H8681)} them in the house{H1005} of God{H426}. 6 Now{H3705} therefore, Tatnai{(H8674)}, governor{H6347} beyond{H5675} the river{H5103}, Shetharboznai{H8370}, and your companions{H3675} the Apharsachites{H671}, which are beyond{H5675} the river{H5103}, be ye{H1934}{(H8754)} far{H7352} from{H4481} thence{H8536}: 7 Let the work{H5673} of this{H1791} house{H1005} of God{H426} alone{H7662}{(H8747)}; let the governor{H6347} of the Jews{H3062} and the elders{H7868}{(H8750)} of the Jews{H3062} build{H1124}{(H8748)} this{H1791} house{H1005} of God{H426} in{H5922} his place{H870}. 8 Moreover I{H4481} make{H7761}{(H8752)} a decree{H2942} what{H3964} ye shall do{H5648}{(H8748)} to{H5974} the elders{H7868}{(H8750)} of these{H479} Jews{H3062} for the building{H1124}{(H8749)} of this{H1791} house{H1005} of God{H426}: that of the king's{H4430} goods{H5232}, even of{H1768} the tribute{H4061} beyond{H5675} the river{H5103}, forthwith{H629} expenses{H5313} be{H1934}{(H8748)} given{H3052}{(H8727)} unto these{H479} men{H1400}, that they be not{H3809} hindered{H989}{(H8749)}. 9 And that which{H4101} they have need of{H2818}{(H8750)}, both young{H1123} bullocks{H8450}, and rams{H1798}, and lambs{H563}, for the burnt offerings{H5928} of the God{H426} of heaven{H8065}, wheat{H2591}, salt{H4416}, wine{H2562}, and oil{H4887}, according to the appointment{H3983} of the priests{H3549} which are at Jerusalem{H3390}, let it be{H1934}{(H8748)} given{H3052}{(H8727)} them day{H3118} by day{H3118} without{H3809} fail{H7960}: 10 That they may offer{H1934}{(H8748)}{H7127}{(H8683)} sacrifices of sweet savours{H5208} unto the God{H426} of heaven{H8065}, and pray{H6739}{(H8743)} for the life{H2417} of the king{H4430}, and of his sons{H1123}. 11 Also{H4481} I have made{H7761}{(H8752)} a decree{H2942}, that whosoever{H3606}{H606} shall alter{H8133}{(H8681)} this{H1836} word{H6600}, let timber{H636} be pulled down{H5256}{(H8725)} from{H4481} his house{H1005}, and being set up{H2211}{(H8752)}, let him be hanged{H4223}{(H8725)} thereon{H5922}; and let his house{H1005} be made{H5648}{(H8725)} a dunghill{H5122} for{H5922} this{H1836}. 12 And the God{H426} that hath caused his name{H8036} to dwell{H7932}{(H8745)} there{H8536} destroy{H4049}{(H8741)} all{H3606} kings{H4430} and people{H5972}, that shall put{H7972}{(H8748)} to their hand{H3028} to alter{H8133}{(H8682)} and to destroy{H2255}{(H8742)} this{H1791} house{H1005} of God{H426} which is at Jerusalem{H3390}. I{H576} Darius{H1868} have made{H7761}{(H8754)} a decree{H2942}; let it be done{H5648}{(H8725)} with speed{H629}. 13 Then{H116} Tatnai{(H8674)}, governor{H6347} on this side{H5675} the river{H5103}, Shetharboznai{H8370}, and their companions{H3675}, according{H6903} to that which Darius{H1868} the king{H4430} had sent{H7972}{(H8754)}, so{H3660} they did{H5648}{(H8754)} speedily{H629}. 14 And the elders{H7868}{(H8750)} of the Jews{H3062} builded{H1124}{(H8750)}, and they prospered{H6744}{(H8683)} through the prophesying{H5017} of Haggai{H2292} the prophet{H5029} and Zechariah{H2148} the son{H1247} of Iddo{H5714}.
