31 Then we departed from the river Ahava ^acon the twelfth day of the first month, to go to Jerusalem. ^adThe hand of our God was on us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy and from ambushes by the way. 32 ^aeWe came to Jerusalem, and there we remained three days. 33 On the fourth day, within the house of our God, the silver and the gold and the vessels were ^afweighed into the hands of ^agMeremoth the priest, son of Uriah, and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas, and with them were the Levites, ^ahJozabad the son of Jeshua and Noadiah the son of ^aiBinnui. 34 The whole was counted and weighed, and the weight of everything was recorded.

35 At that time ^ajthose who had come from captivity, the returned exiles, offered burnt offerings to the God of Israel, ^aktwelve bulls for all Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, and as a sin offering twelve male goats. All this was a burnt offering to the Lord.
