Ezra 7:23 in Context — Ezra 7
21 E por mim mesmo, o rei Artaxerxes, é dado decreto a todos os tesoureiros que estão além do rio, que tudo quanto o sacerdote Esdras, escriba da lei do Deus dos céus, vos pedir, apressadamente lhe seja concedido;
22 Até cem talentos de prata, e até cem coros de trigo, e até cem batos de vinho, e até cem batos de azeite; e sal sem limite.
23 Tudo o que for ordenado pelo Deus do céu, prontamente se faça para a casa do Deus do céu; pois para que teria de haver grande ira contra o reino do rei e de seus filhos?
24 Também vos fazemos saber, acerca de todos os sacerdotes, levitas, cantores, porteiros, servos do templo, e trabalhadores da casa de Deus, ninguém possa lhes impor tributo, imposto, ou taxa.
25 E tu, Esdras, conforme a sabedoria de teu Deus que está contigo, põe oficiais e juízes, que julguem a todo o povo que está além do rio, a todos os que conhecem as Leis de teu Deus; e ao que não as conhecerem, tu lhes ensinará.
