Now in the first H259 year H8141 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539—in order to complete H3615 the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068 by the mouth H6310 of Jeremiah H3414—Yahweh H3068 stirred H5782 up H5782 the spirit H7307 of Cyrus H3566 king H4428 of Persia H6539, so that he had H5674 a proclamation H6963 pass H5674 throughout H3605 all his kingdom H4438, and also H1571 put it in writing H4385, saying H559,
‘Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of heaven H8064, has given H5414 me all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the earth H776, and He has appointed H6485 me to build H1129 Him a house H1004 in Jerusalem H3389, which H834 is in Judah H3063. Whoever H4310 there is among you of all H3605 His people H5971, may Yahweh H3068 his God H430 be with him, and let him go H5927 up H5927!’”
