26 (A)Thus I weighed into their hands 650 talents of silver, and silver utensils worth 100 talents, and 100 gold talents, 27 and 20 gold bowls worth 1,000 darics, and two utensils of fine shiny bronze, precious as gold. 28 Then I said to them, “(B)You are holy to the Lord, and the (C)utensils are holy; and the silver and the gold are a freewill offering to the Lord God of your fathers. 29 Watch and keep them (D)until you weigh them before the leading priests, the Levites and the heads of the fathers’ households of Israel at Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of the Lord.” 30 So the priests and the Levites (E)accepted the weighed out silver and gold and the utensils, to bring them to Jerusalem to the house of our God.
