English Standard Version Anglicised

^14 (A)And the gold and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple that was in Jerusalem and brought into the temple of Babylon, these Cyrus the king took out of the temple of Babylon, and they were delivered to one whose name was ^(B)Sheshbazzar, whom he had made governor; ¹⁵ and he said to him, “Take these vessels, go and put them in the temple that is in Jerusalem, and let the house of God be rebuilt on its site.” ¹⁶ Then this ^(C)Sheshbazzar came and ^(D)laid the foundations of the house of God that is in Jerusalem, and from that time until now it has been in building, and it is ^(E)not yet finished.’
