Scripture passage in Ezra 1:2

And the sons of Pedaiah were, Zerubbabel , and Shimei : and the sons of Zerubbabel ; Meshullam, and Hananiah, and Shelomith their sister:

Speak to Zerubbabel , governor of Judah , saying, I will shake the heavens and the earth;

Now these are the priests and the Levites that went up with Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel , and Jeshua : Seraiah , Jeremiah , Ezra ,

Which came with Zerubbabel : Jeshua , Nehemiah , Seraiah , Reelaiah, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispar, Bigvai, Rehum, Baanah. The number of the men of the people of Israel :

Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.

Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel , governor of Judah , and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak , the high priest , and to the residue of the people, saying,

Who came with Zerubbabel , Jeshua , Nehemiah , Azariah , Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispar, Bigvai, Nehum, Baanah. The number, I say, of the men of the people of Israel was this;

The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you.

Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel , saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.

Then rose up Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel , and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and began to build the house of God which is at Jerusalem : and with them were the prophets of God helping them.

In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel , my servant, the son of Shealtiel , saith the Lord, and will make thee as a signet: for I have chosen thee, saith the Lord of hosts.

For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the Lord, which run to and fro through the whole earth.

Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel , saith the Lord; and be strong, O Joshua , son of Jehozadak , the high priest ; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the Lord, and work: for I am with you, saith the Lord of hosts:

And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel , and in the days of Nehemiah , gave the portions of the singers and the porters, every day his portion: and they sanctified holy things unto the Levites ; and the Levites sanctified them unto the children of Aaron .

Then stood up Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel , and his brethren, and builded the altar of the God of Israel , to offer burnt offerings thereon, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.

Then they came to Zerubbabel , and to the chief of the fathers, and said unto them, Let us build with you: for we seek your God, as ye do; and we do sacrifice unto him since the days of Esar–haddon king of Assur, which brought us up hither.

In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel , governor of Judah , and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak , the high priest , saying,

Then Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel , and Joshua the son of Jehozadak , the high priest , with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of the Lord their God, and the words of Haggai the prophet, as the Lord their God had sent him, and the people did fear before the Lord.

But Zerubbabel , and Jeshua , and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel , said unto them, Ye have nothing to do with us to build an house unto our God; but we ourselves together will build unto the Lord God of Israel , as king Cyrus the king of Persia hath commanded us.

And the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel , governor of Judah , and the spirit of Joshua the son of Jehozadak , the high priest , and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of the Lord of hosts, their God,

Now in the second year of their coming unto the house of God at Jerusalem , in the second month, began Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel , and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites , and all they that were come out of the captivity unto Jerusalem ; and appointed the Levites , from twenty years old and upward, to set forward the work of the house of the Lord.
