20 And the residue that shall be needful for the house of thy God, which shall be meet for thee to bestow, thou shalt bestow it out of the King’s treasure house,

21 And I king Artaxerxes have given commandment to all the treasurers which are beyond [a]the River, that whatsoever Ezra the Priest and Scribe of the Law of the God of heaven shall require of you, that it be done incontinently,

22 Unto an hundred talents of silver, unto an hundred [b]measures of wheat, and unto an hundred [c]baths of wine, and unto an hundred baths of oil, and salt without writing.
