The VII. Chapter.

A   Then Sysennes þe; vndershreue in Celosyria and Phenices, and the other landlordes with their companyons, obeyed the thinges that kynge Darius had ordened, were diligent in the holy workes, ∧ were felow helpers with the olde rulers of the Iewes. And so the worke of the Sanctuary wente forth and prospered, whan Aggeus and Zachary prophecied. And they perfourmed all thinges thorow the commaundement of the LORDE God of Israel, and after the deuyce of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerses kynges of Persia.

B   And thus was oure house fynished, vnto the xxiij. daye of the moneth Addar in þe; vj. yeare of kynge Darius. And the children of Israel the prestes ∧ the Leuites, ∧ the other that were come out of captiuyte, ∧ soch as were ioyned vnto them, dyd acordinge as it is wrytten in the boke of Moses. And in the dedicacion of the temple they offred an hundreth oxen, an C. rammes, iiij.C. lambes, ∧ xij. goates for the synnes of all the people of Israel, after þe; nombre of the trybes of Israel. The prestes also ∧ the Leuites stode arayed in the prestly garm&ebar;tes, after þe; trybes, ouer all þe; workes of the LORDE God of Israel, acordinge to þe; boke of Moses, and the porters by all the dores.

C   And the children of Israel (&wt; those þt; were come out of captiuyte) helde the Passeouer the xiiij. daye of the first moneth, whan the prestes and the Leuites were sanctified.

-- --

They that came out of captiuyte, were not all sanctified together: but the Leuites were all sanctified together. And so all they that came out of captiuyte, kylled the easter lambe, for their brethr&ebar;, for the prestes ∧ for them selues. And the childr&ebar; of Israel þt; came out of captiuyte, ∧ escaped fr&obar; all þe; abhominacions of the Heith&ebar;, sought the LORDE, and kepte the feast of vnleuended bred vij. daies longe, eatinge ∧ drynkynge ∧ were mery before the LORDE: þt; the LORDE had turned the deuyce of the kynge of Assiria, ∧ comforted their handes to the workes of þe; LORDE God of Israel.
