Then I proclaimed a fast there at the river Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek from him a straight way for us, for our little ones, and for all our possessions. 2Ch 20:3Jol 1:141Sa 7:6Isa 30:21Jon 3:5Lev 16:29Lev 23:29Psa 107:2-8 For I was ashamed to ask of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy on the way, because we had spoken to the king, saying, “The hand of our God is on all those who seek him, for good; but his power and his wrath is against all those who forsake him.” 1Pe 3:12Psa 33:18-192Ch 16:9Psa 34:15-16Lam 3:252Ch 15:2Psa 34:22Rom 8:28 So we fasted and begged our God for this, and he granted our request.

Then I set apart twelve of the chiefs of the priests, even Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brothers with them, Ezr 8:18-19 and weighed to them the silver, the gold, and the vessels, even the offering for the house of our God, which the king, his counselors, his princes, and all Israel there present, had offered. Ezr 7:14-16Ezr 8:33Ezr 1:82Co 8:20-21Php 4:8 I weighed into their hand six hundred fifty talents of silver, 1 one hundred talents of silver vessels, one hundred talents of gold, Ezr 1:9-11 twenty bowls of gold weighing one thousand darics, 2 and two vessels of fine bright bronze, precious as gold. Lam 4:2 I said to them, “You are holy to the LORD, and the vessels are holy. The silver and the gold are a free will offering to the LORD, the God of your fathers. Lev 22:2-3Lev 21:6-81Ch 23:281Ki 7:48-512Ch 24:14Deu 33:8Ezr 1:7-11Isa 52:11 Watch and keep them until you weigh them before the chiefs of the priests, the Levites, and the princes of the fathers’ households of Israel at Jerusalem, in the rooms of the LORD’s house.” Ezr 8:33-341Ch 26:20-262Ti 4:5Act 20:31Mrk 13:34-35
So the priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver, the gold, and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem to the house of our God. 1Ch 29:2-3Ezr 8:22Isa 60:13Psa 122:9
Then we departed from the river Ahava on the twelfth day of the first month, to go to Jerusalem.

Neh 2:11Ezr 7:8-9 On the fourth day the silver and the gold and the vessels were weighed in the house of our God into the hand of Meremoth the son of Uriah the priest; and with him was Eleazar the son of Phinehas; and with them were Jozabad the son of Jeshua, and Noadiah the son of Binnui, the Levites. Neh 3:4Ezr 8:30Neh 3:211Ch 28:14-182Co 8:20-21Ezr 8:26Neh 10:5Neh 10:9 Everything was counted and weighed; and all the weight was written at that time.
The children of the captivity, who had come out of exile, offered burnt offerings to the God of Israel: twelve bulls for all Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, and twelve male goats for a sin offering. All this was a burnt offering to the LORD.

So they supported the people and God’s house. Ezr 7:21-24Act 18:27Ezr 4:7-23Ezr 5:6-17Ezr 6:13Isa 56:6-7Rev 12:16Est 9:3
