Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 13 of 96
"and carry the gifts unto the Lord of Israel to Jerusalem, which I and my friends have vowed, and all the gold and silver that in the country of Babylon can be found, to the Lord in Jerusalem,"
In context
11As many therefore as have a mind thereunto, let them depart with thee, as it hath seemed good both to me and my seven friends the counsellors;
12that they may look unto the affairs of Judea and Jerusalem, agreeably to that which is in the law of the Lord;
13and carry the gifts unto the Lord of Israel to Jerusalem, which I and my friends have vowed, and all the gold and silver that in the country of Babylon can be found, to the Lord in Jerusalem,
14with that also which is given of the people for the temple of the Lord their God at Jerusalem: and that silver and gold may be collected for bullocks, rams, and lambs, and things thereunto appertaining;
15to the end that they may offer sacrifices unto the Lord upon the altar of the Lord their God, which is in Jerusalem.
