[8:24] From among the leading priests I chose Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten others.
[8:25] Then I weighed out the silver, the gold, and the utensils which the emperor, his advisers and officials, and the people of Israel had given to be used in the Temple, and I gave it to the priests. – silver – 25 tons – 100 silver utensils – 150 pounds – gold – 7,500 pounds – 20 gold bowls – 270 ounces – 2 fine bronze bowls, equal in value to gold bowls
[8:28] I said to them, “You are sacred to the Lord, the God of your ancestors, and so are all the silver and gold utensils brought to him as freewill offerings.
[8:29] Guard them carefully until you reach the Temple. There in the priests' rooms weigh them and turn them over to the leaders of the priests and of the Levites, and to the leaders of the people of Israel in Jerusalem.”
[8:30] So the priests and the Levites took charge of the silver, the gold, and the utensils, to take them to the Temple in Jerusalem.
