Ezra 7:23-25

New American Standard Bible 1995

²³ Whatever is ^[a]commanded by the God of heaven, let it be done with zeal for the house of the God of heaven, ^(A)so that there will not be wrath against the kingdom of the king and his sons. ²⁴ We also inform you that ^(B)it is not allowed to ^[b]impose tax, tribute or toll ^(C)on any of the priests, Levites, singers, doorkeepers, Nethinim or servants of this house of God.

²⁵ “You, Ezra, according to the wisdom of your God which is in your hand, ^(D)appoint magistrates and judges that they may judge all the people who are in the province beyond the River, even all those who know the laws of your God; and you may ^(E)teach anyone who is ignorant of them.
