Ezra 8:31 in Context — Ezra 8

29 Soyez vigilants, et prenez cela sous votre garde, jusqu’à ce que vous le pesiez devant les chefs des sacrificateurs et les Lévites, et devant les chefs de familles d’Israël, à Jérusalem, dans les chambres de la maison de l’Éternel.

30 Et les sacrificateurs et les Lévites reçurent au poids l’argent, l’or et les ustensiles, pour les porter à Jérusalem, dans la maison de notre Dieu.

31 Nous partîmes du fleuve d’Ahava pour nous rendre à Jérusalem, le douzième jour du premier mois. La main de notre Dieu fut sur nous et nous préserva des attaques de l’ennemi et de toute embûche pendant la route.

32 Nous arrivâmes à Jérusalem, et nous nous y reposâmes trois jours.

33 Le quatrième jour, nous pesâmes dans la maison de notre Dieu l’argent, l’or, et les ustensiles, que nous remîmes à Merémoth, fils d’Urie, le sacrificateur; il y avait avec lui Éléazar, fils de Phinées, et avec eux les Lévites Jozabad, fils de Josué, et Noadia, fils de Binnuï.
