60 Blessed art thou, who hast given me wisdom; I give thee thanks, O Lord of our fathers."

61 So he took the letters, and went to Babylon and told this to all his brethren.

62 And they praised the God of their fathers, because he had given them release and permission

63 to go up and build Jerusalem and the temple which is called by his name; and they feasted, with music and rejoicing, for seven days.
