Ezra 6:15-17

New Catholic Bible

¹⁵ This temple was completed on the twenty-third day of the month of Adar, in the sixth year of the reign of King Darius. ¹⁶ The Israelites—the priests, the Levites, and the remainder of the exiles—celebrated the dedication of this house of God with joy. ¹⁷ For the dedication of this house of God they offered one hundred bulls, two hundred rams, and four hundred lambs, and, as a sin offering for all Israel, twelve male goats, corresponding to the number of the tribes of Israel.
