## Ezra 8:28-30 in Context (Verses 25–33 KJV)
 
 [25 ](/kjv/ezra/8/25) And weighed unto them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, *even* the offering of the house of our God, which the king, and his counsellors, and his lords, and all Israel *there* present, had offered:
 
 [26 ](/kjv/ezra/8/26) I even weighed unto their hand six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels an hundred talents, *and* of gold an hundred talents;
 
 [27 ](/kjv/ezra/8/27) Also twenty basons of gold, of a thousand drams; and two vessels of fine copper, precious as gold.**
 
 [28 ](/kjv/ezra/8/28) And I said unto them, Ye *are* holy unto the LORD; the vessels *are* holy also; and the silver and the gold *are* a freewill offering unto the LORD God of your fathers.
 
 [29 ](/kjv/ezra/8/29) Watch ye, and keep *them*, until ye weigh *them* before the chief of the priests and the Levites, and chief of the fathers of Israel, at Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of the LORD.
 
 [30 ](/kjv/ezra/8/30) So took the priests and the Levites the weight of the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, to bring *them* to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.
 
 [31 ](/kjv/ezra/8/31) ¶ Then we departed from the river of Ahava on the twelfth *day* of the first month, to go unto Jerusalem: and the hand of our God was upon us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy, and of such as lay in wait by the way.
 
 [32 ](/kjv/ezra/8/32) And we came to Jerusalem, and abode there three days.
 
 [33 ](/kjv/ezra/8/33) ¶ Now on the fourth day was the silver and the gold and the vessels weighed in the house of our God by the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest; and with him *was* Eleazar the son of Phinehas; and with them *was* Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of Binnui, Levites;
