Ezra 5:13-15

New Living Translation

¹³ However, King Cyrus of Babylon,^[a] during the first year of his reign, issued a decree that the Temple of God should be rebuilt. ¹⁴ King Cyrus returned the gold and silver cups that Nebuchadnezzar had taken from the Temple of God in Jerusalem and had placed in the temple of Babylon. These cups were taken from that temple and presented to a man named Sheshbazzar, whom King Cyrus appointed as governor of Judah. ¹⁵ The king instructed him to return the cups to their place in Jerusalem and to rebuild the Temple of God there on its original site.
