In context

20And as to the rest of the need of the house of thy God, thou shalt give from the king’s treasure houses,

21and from me, whatever it shall seem good to thee to give. I King Artaxerxes have made a decree for all the treasuries that are in the country beyond the river, that whatever Ezra the priest and scribe of the God of heaven may ask you, it shall be done speedily,

Ezra-Nehemiah (2 Esdras) 7:22

23Let whatever is in the decree of the God of heaven, be done: take heed lest anyone make an attack on the house of the God of heaven, lest at any time there should be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons.

24Also this has been declared to you, with respect to all the priests, and Levites, the singers, porters, Nathinim and ministers of the house of God, let no tribute be paid to thee; thou shalt not have power to oppress them.
