Ezra 1:5-11 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

5. And the heads of the fathers’ houses of Yehuḏah and Binyamin, and the priests and the Lĕwites, with all those whose spirits Elohim had stirred, rose up to go up and build the House of יהוה which is in Yerushalayim.

6. And all those round about them strengthened their hands with objects of silver and gold, with goods and livestock, and with valuables, besides all that was voluntarily offered.

7. And Sovereign Koresh brought out the utensils of the House of יהוה, which Neḇuḵaḏnetstsar had taken from Yerushalayim and put in the house of his mighty ones,

8. and Koresh sovereign of Persia brought them out by the hand of Mithreḏath the treasurer, and counted them out to Shĕshbatstsar the leader of Yehuḏah.

9. And this was their number: thirty gold dishes, one thousand silver dishes, twenty-nine knives,

10. thirty gold basins, next, four hundred and ten silver basins, one thousand other utensils.

11. All the utensils of gold and silver were five thousand four hundred. Shĕshbatstsar took all of them with the exiles who were brought from Baḇel to Yerushalayim.
