3 Quem há entre vós de todo seu povo, seu Deus seja com ele, e suba a Jerusalém que está em Judá, e edifique a casa ao SENHOR Deus de Israel; ele é o Deus que [habita] em Jerusalém.

4 E todo aquele que tiver restado em qualquer lugar onde estiver morando, os homens de seu lugar o ajudem com prata, ouro, bens, e animais; além das doações voluntárias para a casa de Deus, que está em Jerusalém.

5 Então se levantaram os chefes das famílias de Judá e de Benjamim, os sacerdotes e os Levitas, e todos [aqueles] cujo espírito Deus despertou, para subirem a edificar a casa do SENHOR, que está em Jerusalém.

6 E todos os que estavam em seus arredores fortaleceram suas mãos com objetos de prata e de ouro, com bens e animais, e com coisas preciosas, além de tudo o que foi dado voluntariamente.
