Baruch 1:8-10

Common English Bible

⁸ During the same time, on the tenth day of Sivan,^[a] Baruch took the equipment from the Lord’s house that had been removed from the temple—the silver equipment that Judah’s King Zedekiah, Josiah’s son, had made—to return it to Judah. (⁹ This occurred after Babylon’s King Nebuchadnezzar removed Jeconiah, the leading officials, the prisoners, the powerful ones, and the land’s people from Jerusalem, and brought them^[b] to Babylon.)

Response to Jerusalem

¹⁰ And the people in exile said:

We have sent you silver. Buy what is needed for entirely burned offerings and sin offerings. Buy incense and prepare grain as well, and offer them on the Lord our God’s altar.
