7. Also Cyrus the king brought out the vessels of the house of the Lord, which Nebuchadnezzar had brought from Jerusalem [when he took that city] and had put in the house of his gods.

8. These Cyrus king of Persia directed Mithredath the treasurer to bring forth and count out to Sheshbazzar [who is Zerubbabel, recognized as the legitimate heir to the throne of David] the prince of Judah.

9. And they numbered: 30 basins of gold; 1,000 basins of silver; 29 sacrificial dishes;

10. Of gold bowls, 30; another sort of silver bowl, 410; and other vessels, 1,000.
