Ezra 3:5-7

New American Standard Bible

⁵ and afterward there was a ^(A)continual burnt offering, also ^(B)for the new moons and ^(C)for all the appointed festivals of the Lord that were consecrated, and from everyone who offered a ^[a]voluntary offering to the Lord. ⁶ From the first day of the seventh month they began to offer burnt offerings to the Lord, but the foundation of the temple of the Lord had not been laid. ⁷ Then they gave money to the masons and carpenters, and ^(D)food, drink, and oil to the Sidonians and the Tyrians ^(E)to bring cedar wood from Lebanon to the sea at ^(F)Joppa, according to the permission they had ^[b]from ^(G)Cyrus king of Persia.
