1 Esdras 8:50

50 to seek from him a safe journey for ourselves, for those with us, our children and our farm animals.

1 Esdras 8:50 In-Context

48 Of the temple servants, whom David and the leaders had given for the service of the Levites, they brought us two hundred twenty temple servants. All their names were listed in the register.
49 Then I announced a fast for the young people before our Lord,
50 to seek from him a safe journey for ourselves, for those with us, our children and our farm animals.
51 I was ashamed to ask the king for infantry, cavalry, and an escort for safety from our enemies,
52 because we told the king, "The Lord's guidance will be with those who diligently seek after him, until everything is put right again."
