24 Then I separated twelve of the principals of the priests, Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them,
25 and weighed unto them the silver and the gold and the vessels, the offering for the house of our God, which the king and his counsellors and his princes and all those that were of Israel had offered.
26 I weighed, therefore, unto their hand six hundred and fifty talents of silver and silver vessels of one hundred talents and of gold one hundred talents;
27 also twenty basins of gold, of a thousand drams, and two vessels of clean brass, precious as gold.
28 And I said unto them, Ye are holiness unto the Lord; the vessels are holiness also; and the silver and the gold are a freewill offering unto the Lord God of your fathers.
29 Watch and keep them until you weigh them before the princes of the priests and the Levites and of the princes of the fathers of Israel in Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of the Lord.
30 The priests and the Levites received the weight of the silver and of the gold and of the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem unto the house of our God.
