1 Esdras 6:13-15

Common English Bible

¹³ The house was built many years before by a great and mighty king of Israel, and it was finished. ¹⁴ But when our ancestors angrily sinned against the Lord of Israel who is in heaven, God gave them over into the hands of King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, king of the Chaldeans; ¹⁵ and they tore down the house and burned it, and led the people away as prisoners to Babylon.
