Ezra 5:12-14

New Century Version

¹² But our ancestors made the God of heaven angry, so he handed them over to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who destroyed this Temple and took the people to Babylon as captives.

¹³ “Later, in the first year Cyrus was king of Babylon, he gave a special order for this Temple to be rebuilt. ¹⁴ Cyrus brought out from the temple in Babylon the gold and silver bowls and pans that came from the Temple of God. Nebuchadnezzar had taken them from the Temple in Jerusalem and had put them in the temple in Babylon.

“Then King Cyrus gave them to Sheshbazzar, his appointed governor.
