Ezra 5:14 In-Context

12 But because our ancestors angered the God of heaven, he gave them over into the power of Babylon's King Nebuchadnezzar, the Chaldean, who destroyed this house and deported the people to Babylonia.
13 However, in the first year of his rule, Babylon's King Cyrus issued a decree to rebuild this house of God.
14 King Cyrus also took the gold and silver equipment from God's house out of the temple in Babylon (the ones that Nebuchadnezzar took from the temple in Jerusalem and placed in the temple in Babylon) and gave them to a man named Sheshbazzar, whom he had appointed governor.
15 Cyrus said to him, ‘Take this equipment and go and put it in Jerusalem's temple, and let God's house be rebuilt on its original site.'
16 Then Sheshbazzar came and laid the foundations of God's house in Jerusalem. From then until now the rebuilding work has continued but is not yet complete."
