Ezra 3:3-5

Good News Translation

³^(A)Even though^[a] the returning exiles were afraid of the people who were living in the land, they rebuilt the altar where it had stood before. Then they began once again to burn on it the regular morning and evening sacrifices. ⁴^(B)They celebrated the Festival of Shelters according to the regulations; each day they offered the sacrifices required for that day; ⁵^(C)and in addition they offered the regular sacrifices to be burned whole and those to be offered at the New Moon Festival and at all the other regular assemblies at which the Lord is worshiped, as well as all the offerings that were given to the Lord voluntarily.
