1 In the first year of Cyrusking of Persia, to fulfill the word of the LORD spoken through Jeremiah, the LORD stirred the spirit of Cyrusking of Persiato send a proclamation throughout his kingdom and to put it in writing as follows:
2 "This is what Cyrusking of Persiasays:
‘The LORD, the God of heaven, who has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, has appointed me to build a house for Him at Jerusalemin Judah.
3 Whoever among you belongs to His people, may his God be with him, and may he go to Jerusalemin Judah and build the house of the LORD, the God of Israel; He is the God who is in Jerusalem. 4 And let every survivor, wherever he lives, be assisted by the men of that region with silver, gold, goods, and livestock, along with a freewill offering for the house of God in Jerusalem.’"
5 So the family heads of Judah and Benjamin, along with the priests and Levites— everyone whose spirit God had stirred— prepared to go up and rebuild the house of the LORD in Jerusalem.
6 And all their neighbors supported them with articles of silver and gold, with goods and livestock, and with valuables, in addition to all their freewill offerings.
