Ezra 8:27-29

Christian Standard Bible

²⁷ twenty gold bowls worth a thousand gold coins,^[a] and two articles of fine gleaming bronze, as valuable as gold.^{(A) 28} Then I said to them, “You are holy to the Lord, and the articles are holy. The silver and gold are a freewill offering^(B) to the Lord God of your ancestors. ²⁹ Guard them carefully until you weigh them out in the chambers of the Lord’s house before the leading priests, Levites, and heads of the Israelite families in Jerusalem.”
