Ezra 7:13-28
New King James Version
13 I issue a decree that all those of the people of Israel and the priests and Levites in my realm, who volunteer to go up to Jerusalem, may go with you. 14 And whereas you are being sent [a]by the king and his (A)seven counselors to inquire concerning Judah and Jerusalem, with regard to the Law of your God which is in your hand; 15 and whereas you are to carry the silver and gold which the king and his counselors have freely offered to the God of Israel, (B)whose dwelling is in Jerusalem; 16 (C)and whereas all the silver and gold that you may find in all the province of Babylon, along with the freewill offering of the people and the priests, are to be (D)freely offered for the [b]house of their God in Jerusalem— 17 now therefore, be careful to buy with this money bulls, rams, and lambs, with their (E)grain offerings and their drink offerings, and (F)offer them on the altar of the house of your God in Jerusalem.
18 And whatever seems good to you and your brethren to do with the rest of the silver and the gold, do it according to the will of your God. 19 Also the articles that are given to you for the service of the house of your God, deliver in full before the God of Jerusalem. 20 And whatever more may be needed for the house of your God, which you may have occasion to provide, pay for it from the king’s treasury.
21 And I, even I, Artaxerxes the king, issue a decree to all the treasurers who are in the region beyond the River, that whatever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the Law of the God of heaven, may require of you, let it be done diligently, 22 up to one hundred talents of silver, one hundred kors of wheat, one hundred baths of wine, one hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribed limit. 23 Whatever [c]is commanded by the God of heaven, let it diligently be done for the [d]house of the God of heaven. For why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons?
24 Also we inform you that it shall not be lawful to impose tax, tribute, or custom on any of the priests, Levites, singers, gatekeepers, Nethinim, or servants of this house of God. 25 And you, Ezra, according to your God-given wisdom, (G)set magistrates and judges who may judge all the people who are in the region beyond the River, all such as know the laws of your God; and (H)teach those who do not know them. 26 Whoever will not observe the law of your God and the law of the king, let judgment be executed speedily on him, whether it be death, or [e]banishment, or confiscation of goods, or imprisonment.
27 (I)Blessed[f] be the Lord God of our fathers, (J)who has put such a thing as this in the king’s heart, to beautify the house of the Lord which is in Jerusalem, 28 and (K)has extended mercy to me before the king and his counselors, and before all the king’s mighty princes.
So I was encouraged, as (L)the hand of the Lord my God was upon me; and I gathered leading men of Israel to go up with me.

Ezra 7:13-28
New International Version
13 Now I decree that any of the Israelites in my kingdom, including priests and Levites, who volunteer to go to Jerusalem with you, may go. 14 You are sent by the king and his seven advisers(A) to inquire about Judah and Jerusalem with regard to the Law of your God, which is in your hand. 15 Moreover, you are to take with you the silver and gold that the king and his advisers have freely given(B) to the God of Israel, whose dwelling(C) is in Jerusalem, 16 together with all the silver and gold(D) you may obtain from the province of Babylon, as well as the freewill offerings of the people and priests for the temple of their God in Jerusalem.(E) 17 With this money be sure to buy bulls, rams and male lambs,(F) together with their grain offerings and drink offerings,(G) and sacrifice(H) them on the altar of the temple of your God in Jerusalem.
18 You and your fellow Israelites may then do whatever seems best with the rest of the silver and gold, in accordance with the will of your God. 19 Deliver(I) to the God of Jerusalem all the articles entrusted to you for worship in the temple of your God. 20 And anything else needed for the temple of your God that you are responsible to supply, you may provide from the royal treasury.(J)
21 Now I, King Artaxerxes, decree that all the treasurers of Trans-Euphrates are to provide with diligence whatever Ezra the priest, the teacher of the Law of the God of heaven, may ask of you— 22 up to a hundred talents[a] of silver, a hundred cors[b] of wheat, a hundred baths[c] of wine, a hundred baths[d] of olive oil, and salt without limit. 23 Whatever the God of heaven has prescribed, let it be done with diligence for the temple of the God of heaven. Why should his wrath fall on the realm of the king and of his sons?(K) 24 You are also to know that you have no authority to impose taxes, tribute or duty(L) on any of the priests, Levites, musicians, gatekeepers, temple servants or other workers at this house of God.(M)
25 And you, Ezra, in accordance with the wisdom of your God, which you possess, appoint(N) magistrates and judges to administer justice to all the people of Trans-Euphrates—all who know the laws of your God. And you are to teach(O) any who do not know them. 26 Whoever does not obey the law of your God and the law of the king must surely be punished by death, banishment, confiscation of property, or imprisonment.[e](P)
27 Praise be to the Lord, the God of our ancestors, who has put it into the king’s heart(Q) to bring honor(R) to the house of the Lord in Jerusalem in this way 28 and who has extended his good favor(S) to me before the king and his advisers and all the king’s powerful officials. Because the hand of the Lord my God was on me,(T) I took courage and gathered leaders from Israel to go up with me.
