15:007:020 And whatsoever more shall be needful for the house of thy God,
           which thou shalt have occasion to bestow, bestow it out of the
           king’s treasure house.

15:007:021 And I, even I Artaxerxes the king, do make a decree to all the
           treasurers which are beyond the river, that whatsoever Ezra
           the priest, the scribe of the law of the God of heaven, shall
           require of you, it be done speedily,

15:007:022 Unto an hundred talents of silver, and to an hundred measures
           of wheat, and to an hundred baths of wine, and to an hundred
           baths of oil, and salt without prescribing how much.

15:007:023 Whatsoever is commanded by the God of heaven, let it be
           diligently done for the house of the God of heaven:  for why
           should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his
           sons?

15:007:024 Also we certify you, that touching any of the priests and
           Levites, singers, porters, Nethinims, or ministers of this
           house of God, it shall not be lawful to impose toll, tribute,
           or custom, upon them.

15:007:025 And thou, Ezra, after the wisdom of thy God, that is in thine
           hand, set magistrates and judges, which may judge all the
           people that are beyond the river, all such as know the laws of
           thy God; and teach ye them that know them not.

15:007:026 And whosoever will not do the law of thy God, and the law of
           the king, let judgment be executed speedily upon him, whether
           it be unto death, or to banishment, or to confiscation of
           goods, or to imprisonment.

15:007:027 Blessed be the lord God of our fathers, which hath put such a
           thing as this in the king’s heart, to beautify the house of
           the lord which is in Jerusalem: 

15:007:028 And hath extended mercy unto me before the king, and his
           counsellors, and before all the king’s mighty princes.  And I
           was strengthened as the hand of the lord my God was upon me,
           and I gathered together out of Israel chief men to go up with
           me.

15:008:001 These are now the chief of their fathers, and this is the
           genealogy of them that went up with me from Babylon, in the
           reign of Artaxerxes the king.

15:008:002 Of the sons of Phinehas; Gershom:  of the sons of Ithamar;
           Daniel:  of the sons of David; Hattush.

15:008:003 Of the sons of Shechaniah, of the sons of Pharosh; Zechariah: 
           and with him were reckoned by genealogy of the males an
           hundred and fifty.

15:008:004 Of the sons of Pahathmoab; Elihoenai the son of Zerahiah, and
           with him two hundred males.
