So the leaders of Judah and Benjamin, along with the priests and Levites—everyone whose heart God had moved—got ready to go up and rebuild God’s house in Jerusalem. Ezra 1:5 - Modern Text Bible

(The people who felt called by God responded. It wasn’t everyone, but those who were moved took action to start the journey and the work.)
