I hereby decree that any of the people of Israel living in my kingdom who want to go to Jerusalem, including their priests and Levites, may go with you.

Ezra.7.13

Now I decree that any of the Israelites in my kingdom, including priests and Levites, who wish to go to Jerusalem with you, may go.

I issue a decree that all those of the people of Israel and the priests and Levites in my realm, who volunteer to go up to Jerusalem, may go with you.

Ezra.7.13

"I decree that any of the people of Israel in my kingdom, including the priests and Levites, may volunteer to return to Jerusalem with you.

Ezra.7.14

You are being sent by the king and his seven advisors to carry out an investigation of Judah and Jerusalem in relation to the Teaching of your God that you are carrying with you.

Ezra.7.14

You are sent by the king and his seven advisers to inquire about Judah and Jerusalem with regard to the Law of your God, which is in your hand.

Ezra.7.14

And whereas you are being sent by the king and his seven counselors to inquire concerning Judah and Jerusalem, with regard to the Law of your God which is in your hand;

Ezra.7.14

I and my Council of Seven hereby instruct you to conduct an inquiry into the situation in Judah and Jerusalem, based on your God's law, which is in your hand.

Ezra.7.15

You are also authorized to take the silver and gold that the king and his advisors are giving for the God of Israel, whose residence is in Jerusalem,

Ezra.7.15

Moreover, you are to take with you the silver and gold that the king and his advisers have freely given to the God of Israel, whose dwelling is in Jerusalem,

Ezra.7.15

and whereas you are to carry the silver and gold which the king and his counselors have freely offered to the God of Israel, whose dwelling is in Jerusalem;

Ezra.7.15

We also commission you to take with you some silver and gold, which we are freely presenting as an offering to the God of Israel who lives in Jerusalem.

Ezra.7.16

along with all the silver and gold that has been collected from the generously donated offerings all over Babylon, including that from the people and the priests, for The Temple of their God in Jerusalem.

Ezra.7.16

together with all the silver and gold you may obtain from the province of Babylon, as well as the freewill offerings of the people and priests for the temple of their God in Jerusalem.

Ezra.7.16

and whereas all the silver and gold that you may find in all the province of Babylon, along with the freewill offering of the people and the priests, are to be freely offered for the house of their God in Jerusalem--

Ezra.7.16

"Moreover you are to take any silver and gold which you may obtain from the province of Babylon, as well as the freewill offerings of the people and the priests that are presented for the Temple of their God in Jerusalem.

Ezra.7.17

Use this money carefully to buy bulls, rams, lambs, and the ingredients for Grain-Offerings and Drink-Offerings and then offer them on the Altar of The Temple of your God in Jerusalem.

Ezra.7.17

With this money be sure to buy bulls, rams and male lambs, together with their grain offerings and drink offerings, and sacrifice them on the altar of the temple of your God in Jerusalem.

Ezra.7.17

now therefore, be careful to buy with this money bulls, rams, and lambs, with their grain offerings and their drink offerings, and offer them on the altar of the house of your God in Jerusalem.

Ezra.7.17

These donations are to be used specifically for the purchase of bulls, rams, lambs, and the appropriate grain offerings and drink offerings, all of which will be offered on the altar of the Temple of your God in Jerusalem.

Ezra.7.18

You are free to use whatever is left over from the silver and gold for what you and your brothers decide is in keeping with the will of your God.

Ezra.7.18

You and your brother Jews may then do whatever seems best with the rest of the silver and gold, in accordance with the will of your God.

Ezra.7.18

And whatever seems good to you and your brethren to do with the rest of the silver and the gold, do it according to the will of your God.

Ezra.7.18

Any money that is left over may be used in whatever way you and your colleagues feel is the will of your God.

Ezra.7.19

Deliver to the God of Jerusalem the vessels given to you for the services of worship in The Temple of your God.

Ezra.7.19

Deliver to the God of Jerusalem all the articles entrusted to you for worship in the temple of your God.

Ezra.7.19

Also the articles that are given to you for the service of the house of your God, deliver in full before the God of Jerusalem.

Ezra.7.19

But as for the utensils we are entrusting to you for the service of the Temple of your God, deliver them in full to the God of Jerusalem.

Ezra.7.20

Whatever else you need for The Temple of your God you may pay for out of the royal bank.

Ezra.7.20

And anything else needed for the temple of your God that you may have occasion to supply, you may provide from the royal treasury.

Ezra.7.20

And whatever more may be needed for the house of your God, which you may have occasion to provide, pay for it from the king's treasury.

Ezra.7.20

If you run short of money for anything necessary for your God's Temple or for any similar needs, you may requisition funds from the royal treasury.

Ezra.7.21

I, Artaxerxes the king, have formally authorized and ordered all the treasurers of the land across the Euphrates to give Ezra the priest, scholar of the Teaching of the God-of-Heaven, the full amount of whatever he asks for

Ezra.7.21

Now I, King Artaxerxes, order all the treasurers of Trans-Euphrates to provide with diligence whatever Ezra the priest, a teacher of the Law of the God of heaven, may ask of you-

Ezra.7.21

And I, even I, Artaxerxes the king, issue a decree to all the treasurers who are in the region beyond the River, that whatever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the Law of the God of heaven, may require of you, let it be done diligently,

Ezra.7.21

"I, Artaxerxes the king, hereby send this decree to all the treasurers in the province west of the Euphrates River: `You are to give Ezra whatever he requests of you, for he is a priest and teacher of the law of the God of heaven.

Ezra.7.22

up to a hundred talents of silver, six hundred and fifty bushels of wheat, and six hundred and seven gallons each of wine and olive oil. There is no limit on the salt.

Ezra.7.22

up to a hundred talents of silver, a hundred cors of wheat, a hundred baths of wine, a hundred baths of olive oil, and salt without limit.

Ezra.7.22

up to one hundred talents of silver, one hundred kors of wheat, one hundred baths of wine, one hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribed limit.

Ezra.7.22

You are to give him up to 7,500 pounds of silver, 500 bushels of wheat, 550 gallons of wine, 550 gallons of olive oil, and an unlimited supply of salt.

Ezra.7.23

Everything the God-of-Heaven requires for The Temple of God must be given without hesitation. Why would the king and his sons risk stirring up his wrath?

Ezra.7.23

Whatever the God of heaven has prescribed, let it be done with diligence for the temple of the God of heaven. Why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and of his sons?

Ezra.7.23

Whatever is commanded by the God of heaven, let it diligently be done for the house of the God of heaven. For why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons?

Ezra.7.23

Be careful to provide whatever the God of heaven demands for his Temple, for why should we risk bringing God's anger against the realm of the king and his sons?

Ezra.7.24

Also, let it be clear that no one is permitted to impose tribute, tax, or duty on any priest, Levite, singer, temple security guard, temple servant, or any other worker connected with The Temple of God.

Ezra.7.24

You are also to know that you have no authority to impose taxes, tribute or duty on any of the priests, Levites, singers, gatekeepers, temple servants or other workers at this house of God.

Ezra.7.24

Also we inform you that it shall not be lawful to impose tax, tribute, or custom on any of the priests, Levites, singers, gatekeepers, Nethinim, or servants of this house of God.

Ezra.7.24

I also decree that no priest, Levite, singer, gatekeeper, Temple servant, or other worker in this Temple of God will be required to pay taxes of any kind.'

Ezra.7.25

I authorize you, Ezra, exercising the wisdom of God that you have in your hands, to appoint magistrates and judges so they can administer justice among all the people of the land across the Euphrates who live by the Teaching of your God. Anyone who does not know the Teaching, you teach them.

Ezra.7.25

And you, Ezra, in accordance with the wisdom of your God, which you possess, appoint magistrates and judges to administer justice to all the people of Trans-Euphrates-all who know the laws of your God. And you are to teach any who do not know them.

Ezra.7.25

And you, Ezra, according to your God-given wisdom, set magistrates and judges who may judge all the people who are in the region beyond the River, all such as know the laws of your God; and teach those who do not know them.

Ezra.7.25

"And you, Ezra, are to use the wisdom God has given you to appoint magistrates and judges who know your God's laws to govern all the people in the province west of the Euphrates River. If the people are not familiar with those laws, you must teach them.

Ezra.7.26

Anyone who does not obey the Teaching of your God and the king must be tried and sentenced at once--death, banishment, a fine, prison, whatever. Ezra: "

Ezra.7.26

Whoever does not obey the law of your God and the law of the king must surely be punished by death, banishment, confiscation of property, or imprisonment.

Ezra.7.26

Whoever will not observe the law of your God and the law of the king, let judgment be executed speedily on him, whether it be death, or banishment, or confiscation of goods, or imprisonment.

Ezra.7.26

Anyone who refuses to obey the law of your God and the law of the king will be punished immediately by death, banishment, confiscation of goods, or imprisonment."

Ezra.7.27

Blessed be GOD, the God-of-Our-Fathers, who put it in the mind of the king to beautify The Temple of GOD in Jerusalem!

Ezra.7.27

Praise be to the LORD, the God of our fathers, who has put it into the king's heart to bring honor to the house of the LORD in Jerusalem in this way

Ezra.7.27

Blessed be the LORD God of our fathers, who has put such a thing as this in the king's heart, to beautify the house of the LORD which is in Jerusalem,

Ezra.7.27

Praise the LORD, the God of our ancestors, who made the king want to beautify the Temple of the LORD in Jerusalem!

Ezra.7.28

Not only that, he caused the king and all his advisors and influential officials actually to like me and back me. My God was on my side and I was ready to go. And I organized all the leaders of Israel to go with me.

Ezra.7.28

and who has extended his good favor to me before the king and his advisers and all the king's powerful officials. Because the hand of the LORD my God was on me, I took courage and gathered leading men from Israel to go up with me.

Ezra.7.28

and has extended mercy to me before the king and his counselors, and before all the king's mighty princes. So I was encouraged, as the hand of the LORD my God was upon me; and I gathered leading men of Israel to go up with me.

Ezra.7.28

And praise him for demonstrating such unfailing love to me by honoring me before the king, his council, and all his mighty princes! I felt encouraged because the gracious hand of the LORD my God was on me. And I gathered some of the leaders of Israel to return with me to Jerusalem.

Rev.13.1

And the Dragon stood on the shore of the sea. I saw a Beast rising from the sea. It had ten horns and seven heads--on each horn a crown, and each head inscribed with a blasphemous name.

Rev.13.1

And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea.

Rev.13.1

Then I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name.

Rev.13.1

And now in my vision I saw a beast rising up out of the sea. It had seven heads and ten horns, with ten crowns on its horns. And written on each head were names that blasphemed God.

Rev.13.2

The Beast I saw looked like a leopard with bear paws and a lion's mouth. The Dragon turned over its power to it, its throne and great authority.

Rev.13.2

And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his horns, and on each head a blasphemous name. The beast I saw resembled a leopard, but had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion. The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority.

Rev.13.2

Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.

Rev.13.2

This beast looked like a leopard, but it had bear's feet and a lion's mouth! And the dragon gave him his own power and throne and great authority.

Rev.13.3

One of the Beast's heads looked as if it had been struck a deathblow, and then healed. The whole earth was agog, gaping at the Beast.

Rev.13.3

One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was astonished and followed the beast.

Rev.13.3

And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast.

Rev.13.3

I saw that one of the heads of the beast seemed wounded beyond recovery--but the fatal wound was healed! All the world marveled at this miracle and followed the beast in awe.

Rev.13.4

They worshiped the Dragon who gave the Beast authority, and they worshiped the Beast, exclaiming, "There's never been anything like the Beast! No one would dare go to war with the Beast!"

Rev.13.4

Men worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they also worshiped the beast and asked, "Who is like the beast? Who can make war against him?"

Rev.13.4

So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, "Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?"

Rev.13.4

They worshiped the dragon for giving the beast such power, and they worshiped the beast. "Is there anyone as great as the beast?" they exclaimed. "Who is able to fight against him?"

Rev.13.5

The Beast had a loud mouth, boastful and blasphemous. It could do anything it wanted for forty-two months.

Rev.13.5

The beast was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise his authority for forty-two months.

Rev.13.5

And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months.

Rev.13.5

Then the beast was allowed to speak great blasphemies against God. And he was given authority to do what he wanted for forty-two months.

Rev.13.6

It yelled blasphemies against God, blasphemed his Name, blasphemed his Church, especially those already dwelling with God in Heaven.

Rev.13.6

He opened his mouth to blaspheme God, and to slander his name and his dwelling place and those who live in heaven.

Rev.13.6

Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven.

Rev.13.6

And he spoke terrible words of blasphemy against God, slandering his name and all who live in heaven, who are his temple.

Rev.13.7

It was permitted to make war on God's holy people and conquer them. It held absolute sway over all tribes and peoples, tongues and races.

Rev.13.7

He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And he was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation.

Rev.13.7

It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation.

Rev.13.7

And the beast was allowed to wage war against God's holy people and to overcome them. And he was given authority to rule over every tribe and people and language and nation.

Rev.13.8

Everyone on earth whose name was not written from the world's foundation in the slaughtered Lamb's Book of Life will worship the Beast.

Rev.13.8

All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast--all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world.

Rev.13.8

All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

Rev.13.8

And all the people who belong to this world worshiped the beast. They are the ones whose names were not written in the Book of Life, which belongs to the Lamb who was killed before the world was made.

Rev.13.9

Are you listening to this?

Rev.13.9

He who has an ear, let him hear.

Rev.13.9

If anyone has an ear, let him hear.

Rev.13.9

Anyone who is willing to hear should listen and understand.

Rev.13.10

They've made their bed; now they must lie in it. Anyone marked for prison goes straight to prison; anyone pulling a sword goes down by the sword. Meanwhile, God's holy people passionately and faithfully stand their ground.

Rev.13.10

If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword he will be killed. This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of the saints.

Rev.13.10

He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

Rev.13.10

The people who are destined for prison will be arrested and taken away. Those who are destined for death will be killed. But do not be dismayed, for here is your opportunity to have endurance and faith.

Rev.13.11

I saw another Beast rising out of the ground. It had two horns like a lamb but sounded like a dragon when it spoke.

Rev.13.11

Then I saw another beast, coming out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, but he spoke like a dragon.

Rev.13.11

Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon.

Rev.13.11

Then I saw another beast come up out of the earth. He had two horns like those of a lamb, and he spoke with the voice of a dragon.

Rev.13.12

It was a puppet of the first Beast, made earth and everyone in it worship the first Beast, which had been healed of its deathblow.

Rev.13.12

He exercised all the authority of the first beast on his behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed.

Rev.13.12

And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

Rev.13.12

He exercised all the authority of the first beast. And he required all the earth and those who belong to this world to worship the first beast, whose death-wound had been healed.

Rev.13.13

This second Beast worked magical signs, dazzling people by making fire come down from Heaven.

Rev.13.13

And he performed great and miraculous signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to earth in full view of men.

Rev.13.13

He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men.

Rev.13.13

He did astounding miracles, such as making fire flash down to earth from heaven while everyone was watching.

Rev.13.14

It used the magic it got from the Beast to dupe earth dwellers, getting them to make an image of the Beast that received the deathblow and lived.

Rev.13.14

Because of the signs he was given power to do on behalf of the first beast, he deceived the inhabitants of the earth. He ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived.

Rev.13.14

And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived.

Rev.13.14

And with all the miracles he was allowed to perform on behalf of the first beast, he deceived all the people who belong to this world. He ordered the people of the world to make a great statue of the first beast, who was fatally wounded and then came back to life.

Rev.13.15

It was able to animate the image of the Beast so that it talked, and then arrange that anyone not worshiping the Beast would be killed.

Rev.13.15

He was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that it could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed.

Rev.13.15

He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.

Rev.13.15

He was permitted to give life to this statue so that it could speak. Then the statue commanded that anyone refusing to worship it must die.

Rev.13.16

It forced all people, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to have a mark on the right hand or forehead.

Rev.13.16

He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead,

Rev.13.16

He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads,

Rev.13.16

He required everyone--great and small, rich and poor, slave and free--to be given a mark on the right hand or on the forehead.

Rev.13.17

Without the mark of the name of the Beast or the number of its name, it was impossible to buy or sell anything.

Rev.13.17

so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.

Rev.13.17

and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Rev.13.17
