Ezra 5:11Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 versionAnd they answered us in these words, saying: We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth; and we are building a temple that was built these many years ago, and which a great king of Israel built and set up. See the chapter |
But if it seem evil to you to serve the Lord, you have your choice: choose this day that which pleaseth you, whom you would rather serve, whether the gods which your fathers served in Mesopotamia, or the gods of the Amorrhites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house we will serve the Lord.
