Then the prophets, [5029] Haggai [2292] the prophet, [5029] and Zechariah [2148] the son [1247] of Iddo, [5714] prophesied [5013] unto [5922] the Jews [3062] that [were] in Judah [3061] and Jerusalem [3390] in the name [8036] of the God [0426] of Israel, [3479] [even] unto [5922] them.

2

Then [0116] rose up [6966] Zerubbabel [2217] the son [1247] of Shealtiel, [7598] and Jeshua [3443] [3442] the son [1247] of Jozadak, [3136] and began [8271] to build [1124] the house [1005] of God [0426] which [is] at Jerusalem: [3390] and with them [5974] [were] the prophets [5029] of God [0426] helping [5583] them.

3

At the same time [2166] came [0858] to [5922] them Tatnai, [8674] governor [6347] on this side [5675] the river, [5103] and Shetharboznai, [8370] and their companions, [3675] and said [0560] thus [3652] unto them, Who [4479] hath commanded [7761] [2942] you to build [1124] this [1836] house, [1005] and to make up [3635] this [1836] wall? [0846]

4

Then [0116] said [0560] we unto them after this manner, [3660] What [4479] are [0581] the names [8036] of the men [1400] that make [1124] this [1836] building? [1147]

5

But the eye [5870] of their God [0426] was [1934] upon [5922] the elders [7868] of the Jews, [3062] that they could not [3809] cause them [1994] to cease, [0989] till [5705] the matter [2941] came [1946] to Darius: [1868] and then [0116] they returned answer [8421] by letter [5407] concerning [5922] this [1836] [matter].

6

The copy [6573] of the letter [0104] that Tatnai, [8674] governor [6347] on this side [5675] the river, [5103] and Shetharboznai, [8370] and his companions [3675] the Apharsachites, [0671] which [were] on this side [5675] the river, [5103] sent [7972] unto [5922] Darius [1868] the king: [4430]

7

They sent [7972] a letter [6600] unto [5922] him, wherein [1459] was written [3790] thus; [1836] Unto Darius [1868] the king, [4430] all [3606] peace. [8001]

8

Be it [1934] known [3046] unto the king, [4430] that we went [0236] into the province [4083] of Judea, [3061] to the house [1005] of the great [7229] God, [0426] which is builded [1124] with great [1560] stones, [0069] and timber [0636] is laid [7761] in the walls, [3797] and this [1791] work [5673] goeth [5648] fast [0629] on, and prospereth [6744] in their hands. [3028]

9

Then [0116] asked [7593] we those [0479] elders, [7868] [and] said [0560] unto them thus, [3660] Who [4479] commanded [7761] [2942] you to build [1124] this [1836] house, [1005] and to make up [3635] these [1836] walls? [0846]

10

We asked [7593] their names [8036] also, [0638] to certify [3046] thee, that we might write [3790] the names [8036] of the men [1400] that [were] the chief [7217] of them.

11

And thus [3660] they returned [8421] us answer, [6600] saying, [0560] We [0586] are [1994] the servants [5649] of the God [0426] of heaven [8065] and earth, [0772] and build [1124] the house [1005] that was [1934] builded [1124] these [1836] many [7690] years [8140] ago, [6928] which a great [7229] king [4430] of Israel [3479] builded [1124] and set up. [3635]

12

But [3861] after [4481] that our fathers [0002] had provoked the God [0426] of heaven [8065] unto wrath, [7265] he gave [3052] them [1994] into the hand [3028] of Nebuchadnezzar [5020] the king [4430] of Babylon, [0895] the Chaldean, [3679] who destroyed [5642] this [1836] house, [1005] and carried the people [5972] away [1541] into Babylon. [0895]

13

But [1297] in the first [2298] year [8140] of Cyrus [3567] the king [4430] of Babylon [0895] [the same] king [4430] Cyrus [3567] made [7761] a decree [2942] to build [1124] this [1836] house [1005] of God. [0426]

14

And the vessels [3984] also [0638] of [1768] gold [1722] and silver [3702] of [1768] the house [1005] of God, [0426] which Nebuchadnezzar [5020] took out [5312] of [4481] the temple [1965] that [was] in Jerusalem, [3390] and brought [2987] them [1994] into the temple [1965] of Babylon, [0895] those [1994] did Cyrus [3567] the king [4430] take out [5312] of [4481] the temple [1965] of Babylon, [0895] and they were delivered [3052] unto [one], whose name [8036] [was] Sheshbazzar, [8340] whom he had made [7761] governor; [6347]

15

And said [0560] unto him, Take [5376] these [0412] vessels, [3984] go, [0236] carry [5182] them [1994] into the temple [1965] that [is] in Jerusalem, [3390] and let the house [1005] of God [0426] be builded [1124] in [5922] his place. [0870]

16

Then [0116] came [0858] the same [1791] Sheshbazzar, [8340] [and] laid [3052] the foundation [0787] of the house [1005] of God [0426] which [is] in Jerusalem: [3390] and since [4481] that time [0116] even until [5705] now [3705] hath it been in building, [1124] and [yet] it is not [3809] finished. [8000]

17

Now [3705] therefore, if [2006] [it seem] good [2869] to [5922] the king, [4430] let there be search [1240] made in the king's [4430] treasure [1596] house, [1005] which [is] there [8536] at Babylon, [0895] whether [2006] it be [0383] [so], that a decree [2942] was made [7761] of [4481] Cyrus [3567] the king [4430] to build [1124] this [1791] house [1005] of God [0426] at Jerusalem, [3390] and let the king [4430] send [7972] his pleasure [7470] to us concerning [5922] this matter.
