Si autem aversi fueritis, et dereliqueritis justitias meas, et prcepta mea, qu proposui vobis, et abeuntes servieritis diis alienis, et adoraveritis eos,
Vasa quoque, qu dantur tibi in ministerium domus Dei tui, trade in conspectu Dei in Jerusalem.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
The vessels also that were given thee for the service of the house of thy God,.... These were vessels of silver, basins of gold, and vessels of fine copper; not what formerly belonged to the temple, they were delivered by Cyrus to Sheshbazzar; but what the present king and his counsellors freely offered at this time, see Ezra 8:25, those
deliver thou before the God of Jerusalem; perfect and complete, the full number of them, as the word signifies t; meaning not to be delivered before him, or in his presence, as a witness thereof, but that they should be dedicated and devoted to his service, who was worshipped in the temple at Jerusalem, and by the inhabitants of it; he seems as if he thought him a topical deity, the God of that particular place, which was the notion of the Heathens, see
1 Kings 20:23, though he also speaks of him as the God of heaven.
