Ezra 7:6 This Ezra went up from Babylon; and he was a ready scribe in the law of Moses, which the LORD God of Israel had given: and the king granted him all his request, according to the hand of the LORD his God upon him.

ויֽעל֣ו מבנֽי־י֠שראל ומן־הכהנ֨ים והלוי֜ם והמשרר֧ים והשער֛ים והנתינ֖ים אל־ירושל֑ם בשנת־ש֖בע לארתחש֥סתא המֽלך׃

Ezra 7:7 And there went up some of the children of Israel, and of the priests, and the Levites, and the singers, and the porters, and the Nethinims, unto Jerusalem, in the seventh year of Artaxerxes the king.

ויב֥א ירושל֖ם בח֣דש החמיש֑י ה֛יא שנ֥ת השביע֖ית למֽלך׃

Ezra 7:8 And he came to Jerusalem in the fifth month, which was in the seventh year of the king.

כ֗י באחד֙ לח֣דש הראש֔ון ה֣וא יס֔ד הֽמעל֖ה מבב֑ל ובאח֞ד לח֣דש החמיש֗י ב֚א אל־יר֣ושל֔ם כיד־אלה֖יו הטוב֥ה עלֽיו׃

Ezra 7:9 For upon the first day of the first month began he to go up from Babylon, and on the first day of the fifth month came he to Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God upon him.

כ֤י עזרא֙ הכ֣ין לבב֔ו לדר֛וש את־תור֥ת יהו֖ה ולעש֑ת וללמ֥ד בישרא֖ל ח֥ק ומשפֽט׃

Ezra 7:10 For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments.

וז֣ה׀ פרש֣גן הֽנשתו֗ן אש֤ר נתן֙ המ֣לך ארתחש֔סתא לעזר֥א הכה֖ן הספ֑ר ספ֞ר דבר֧י מצות־יהו֛ה וחק֖יו על־ישראֽל׃

Ezra 7:11 Now this is the copy of the letter that the king Artaxerxes gave unto Ezra the priest, the scribe, even a scribe of the words of the commandments of the LORD, and of his statutes to Israel.

א֨רתחש֔סתא מ֖לך מלכי֑א לעזר֣א כ֠הנא ספ֨ר דת֜א דֽי־אל֧ה שמי֛א גמ֖יר וכעֽנת׃

Ezra 7:12 Artaxerxes, king of kings, unto Ezra the priest, a scribe of the law of the God of heaven, perfect peace, and at such a time.

מני֘ ש֣ים טעם֒ ד֣י כל־מתנד֣ב במלכותי֩ מן־עמ֨ה ישרא֜ל וכהנ֣והי ולוי֗א למה֧ך לֽירושל֛ם עמ֖ך יהֽך׃

Ezra 7:13 I make a decree, that all they of the people of Israel, and of his priests and Levites, in my realm, which are minded of their own freewill to go up to Jerusalem, go with thee.

כל־קב֗ל די֩ מן־קד֨ם מלכ֜א ושבע֤ת יעט֙הי֙ של֔יח לבקר֥א על־יה֖וד ולֽירושל֑ם בד֥ת אלה֖ך ד֥י בידֽך׃

Ezra 7:14 Forasmuch as thou art sent of the king, and of his seven counsellors, to enquire concerning Judah and Jerusalem, according to the law of thy God which is in thine hand;

ולהיבל֖ה כס֣ף ודה֑ב דֽי־מלכ֣א ויעט֗והי התנד֙בו֙ לאל֣ה ישרא֔ל ד֥י בֽירושל֖ם משכנֽה׃

Ezra 7:15 And to carry the silver and gold, which the king and his counsellors have freely offered unto the God of Israel, whose habitation is in Jerusalem,

וכל֙ כס֣ף ודה֔ב ד֣י תהשכ֔ח בכ֖ל מדינ֣ת בב֑ל עם֩ התנדב֨ות עמ֤א וכֽהניא֙ מֽתנדב֔ין לב֥ית אלהה֖ם ד֥י בירושלֽם׃

Ezra 7:16 And all the silver and gold that thou canst find in all the province of Babylon, with the freewill offering of the people, and of the priests, offering willingly for the house of their God which is in Jerusalem:

כל־קב֣ל דנה֩ אספ֨רנא תקנ֜א בכספ֣א דנ֗ה תור֤ין׀ דכרין֙ אמר֔ין ומנחתה֖ון ונסכיה֑ון ותקר֣ב המ֔ו עֽל־מדבח֔ה ד֛י ב֥ית אלהכ֖ם ד֥י בירושלֽם׃

Ezra 7:17 That thou mayest buy speedily with this money bullocks, rams, lambs, with their meat offerings and their drink offerings, and offer them upon the altar of the house of your God which is in Jerusalem.

ומ֣ה ומ֣ה די֩ די֩ על֨ך על֨ך ועל־אח֜ך אח֜ך ייט֗ב בשא֛ר ייט֗ב כספ֥א בשא֛ר כספ֥א ודהב֖ה ודהב֖ה למעב֑ד למעב֑ד כרע֥ות אלהכ֖ם כרע֥ות תעבדֽון׃ אלהכ֖ם תעבדֽון׃

Ezra 7:18 And whatsoever shall seem good to thee, and to thy brethren, to do with the rest of the silver and the gold, that do after the will of your God.

ומֽאניא֙ דֽי־מתיהב֣ין ל֔ך לפלח֖ן ב֣ית אלה֑ך השל֕ם קד֖ם אל֥ה ירושלֽם׃

Ezra 7:19 The vessels also that are given thee for the service of the house of thy God, those deliver thou before the God of Jerusalem.

ושא֗ר חשחות֙ ב֣ית אלה֔ך ד֥י יפל־ל֖ך למנת֑ן תנת֕ן מן־ב֖ית גנז֥י מלכֽא׃

Ezra 7:20 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.

ו֠מני אנ֞ה ארתחש֤סתא מלכא֙ ש֣ים טע֔ם לכל֙ גזֽברי֔א ד֖י בעב֣ר נהר֑ה ד֣י כל־ד֣י י֠שאלנכון עזר֨א כהנ֜ה ספ֤ר דתא֙ דֽי־אל֣ה שמי֔א אספ֖רנא יתעבֽד׃

Ezra 7:21 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,

עד־כסף֘ ככר֣ין מאה֒ ועד־חנטין֙ כר֣ין מא֔ה ועד־חמר֙ בת֣ין מא֔ה ועד־בת֥ין מש֖ח מא֑ה ומל֖ח די־ל֥א כתֽב׃

Ezra 7:22 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.

כל־ד֗י מן־ט֙עם֙ אל֣ה שמי֔א יתעבד֙ אדרזד֔א לב֖ית אל֣ה שמי֑א דֽי־למ֤ה לֽהוא֙ קצ֔ף על־מלכ֥ות מלכ֖א ובנֽוהי׃

Ezra 7:23 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?

ולכ֣ם מהודע֗ין ד֣י כל־כהני֣א ו֠לויא זמ֨רי֤א תרֽעיא֙ נת֣יני֔א ופ֣לח֔י ב֖ית אלה֣א דנ֑ה מנד֤ה בלו֙ והל֔ך ל֥א של֖יט למרמ֥א עליהֽם׃

Ezra 7:24 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.

וא֣נת עזר֗א כחכמ֨ת אלה֤ך דֽי־בידך֙ מ֣ני שפט֞ין ודינ֗ין די־להו֤ן דאינין֙ לכל־עמה֙ ד֚י בעב֣ר נהר֔ה לכל־ידע֖י דת֣י אלה֑ך וד֧י ל֦א יד֖ע תהודעֽון׃

Ezra 7:25 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.

וכל־די־לא֩ להו֨א עב֜ד דת֣א דֽי־אלה֗ך ודתא֙ ד֣י מלכ֔א אספ֕רנא דינ֕ה להו֥א מתעב֖ד מנ֑ה ה֤ן למות֙ ה֣ן לשרש֔י הן־לענ֥ש נכס֖ין ולאסורֽין׃

Ezra 7:26 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.

בר֥וך יהו֖ה אלה֣י אבות֑ינו אש֨ר נת֤ן כזאת֙ בל֣ב המ֔לך לפא֕ר את־ב֥ית יהו֖ה אש֥ר בירושלֽם׃

Ezra 7:27 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:

ועל֣י הטה־ח֗סד לפנ֤י המ֙לך֙ ויֽועצ֔יו ולכל־שר֥י המ֖לך הגבר֑ים ואנ֣י התחז֗קתי כיד־יהו֤ה אלהי֙ על֔י ואקבצ֧ה מישרא֛ל ראש֖ים לעל֥ות עמֽי׃

Ezra 7:28 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.
