Then the prophetsH5029, HaggaiH2292 the prophetH5029, and ZechariahH2148 the sonH1247 of IddoH5714, prophesiedH5013 untoH5922 the JewsH3062 that were in JudahH3061 and JerusalemH3390 in the nameH8036 of the GodH426 of IsraelH3479, even untoH5922 them.
ThenH116 rose upH6966 ZerubbabelH2217 the sonH1247 of ShealtielH7598, and JeshuaH3443 the sonH1247 of JozadakH3136, and beganH8271 to buildH1124 the houseH1005 of GodH426 which is at JerusalemH3390: and with themH5974 were the prophetsH5029 of GodH426 helpingH5583 them.
At the same timeH2166 cameH858 to them TatnaiH8674, governorH6347 on this sideH5675 the riverH5103, and ShetharboznaiH8370, and their companionsH3675, and saidH560 thusH3652 unto themH5922, WhoH4479 hath commandedH7761+H2942 you to buildH1124 thisH1836 houseH1005, and to make upH3635 thisH1836 wallH846?
ThenH116 saidH560 we unto them after this mannerH3660, WhatH4479 areH581 the namesH8036 of the menH1400 that makeH1124 thisH1836 buildingH1147? {make: Chaldee, build}
But the eyeH5870 of their GodH426 wasH1934 uponH5922 the eldersH7868 of the JewsH3062, that they could notH3809 causeH989 themH1994 to ceaseH989, tillH5705 the matterH2941 cameH1946 to DariusH1868: and thenH116 they returned answerH8421 by letterH5407 concerningH5922 thisH1836 matter.
The copyH6573 of the letterH104 that TatnaiH8674, governorH6347 on this sideH5675 the riverH5103, and ShetharboznaiH8370, and his companionsH3675 the ApharsachitesH671, which were on this sideH5675 the riverH5103, sentH7972 untoH5922 DariusH1868 the kingH4430:
They sentH7972 a letterH6600 untoH5922 him, whereinH1459 was writtenH3790 thusH1836; Unto DariusH1868 the kingH4430, allH3606 peaceH8001. {wherein: Chaldee, in the midst whereof}
Be it knownH1934+H3046 unto the kingH4430, that we wentH236 into the provinceH4083 of JudeaH3061, to the houseH1005 of the greatH7229 GodH426, which is buildedH1124 with greatH1560 stonesH69, and timberH636 is laidH7761 in the wallsH3797, and thisH1791 workH5673 goethH5648 fastH629 on, and prosperethH6744 in their handsH3028. {great…: Chaldee, stones of rolling}
ThenH116 askedH7593 we thoseH479 eldersH7868, and saidH560 unto them thusH3660, WhoH4479 commandedH7761+H2942 you to buildH1124 thisH1836 houseH1005, and to make upH3635 theseH1836 wallsH846?
We askedH7593 their namesH8036 alsoH638, to certifyH3046 thee, that we might writeH3790 the namesH8036 of the menH1400 that were the chiefH7217 of them.
And thusH3660 they returnedH8421 us answerH6600, sayingH560, WeH586 areH1994 the servantsH5649 of the GodH426 of heavenH8065 and earthH772, and buildH1124 the houseH1005 that wasH1934 buildedH1124 theseH1836 manyH7690 yearsH8140 agoH6928, which a greatH7229 kingH4430 of IsraelH3479 buildedH1124 and set upH3635.
ButH3861 afterH4481 that our fathersH2 had provokedH7265 the GodH426 of heavenH8065 unto wrathH7265, he gaveH3052 themH1994 into the handH3028 of NebuchadnezzarH5020 the kingH4430 of BabylonH895, the ChaldeanH3679, who destroyedH5642 thisH1836 houseH1005, and carriedH1541 the peopleH5972 awayH1541 into BabylonH895.
ButH1297 in the firstH2298 yearH8140 of CyrusH3567 the kingH4430 of BabylonH895 the same kingH4430 CyrusH3567 madeH7761 a decreeH2942 to buildH1124 thisH1836 houseH1005 of GodH426.
And the vesselsH3984 alsoH638 ofH1768 goldH1722 and silverH3702 of the houseH1005 of GodH426, which NebuchadnezzarH5020 tookH5312 out ofH4481 the templeH1965 that was in JerusalemH3390, and broughtH2987 them into the templeH1965 of BabylonH895, thoseH1994 did CyrusH3567 the kingH4430 takeH5312 out ofH4481 the templeH1965 of BabylonH895, and they were deliveredH3052 unto one, whose nameH8036 was SheshbazzarH8340, whom he had madeH7761 governorH6347; {governor: or, deputy}
And saidH560 unto him, TakeH5376 theseH412 vesselsH3984, goH236, carryH5182 themH1994 into the templeH1965 that is in JerusalemH3390, and let the houseH1005 of GodH426 be buildedH1124 inH5922 his placeH870.
ThenH116 cameH858 the sameH1791 SheshbazzarH8340, and laidH3052 the foundationH787 of the houseH1005 of GodH426 which is in JerusalemH3390: and sinceH4481 that timeH116 even untilH5705 nowH3705 hath it been in buildingH1124, and yet it is notH3809 finishedH8000.
NowH3705 therefore, ifH2006 it seem goodH2869 toH5922 the kingH4430, let there be searchH1240 made in the king'sH4430 treasureH1596 houseH1005, which is thereH8536 at BabylonH895, whetherH2006 it beH383 so, that a decreeH2942 was madeH7761 ofH4481 CyrusH3567 the kingH4430 to buildH1124 thisH1791 houseH1005 of GodH426 at JerusalemH3390, and let the kingH4430 sendH7972 his pleasureH7470 to us concerningH5922 this matterH1836.

Now in the firstH259 yearH8141 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 by the mouthH6310 of JeremiahH3414 might be fulfilledH3615, the LORDH3068 stirred upH5782 the spiritH7307 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539, that he made a proclamationH5674+H6963 throughout all his kingdomH4438, and put it also in writingH4385, sayingH559, {made…: Heb. caused a voice to pass}
Thus saithH559 CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539, The LORDH3068 GodH430 of heavenH8064 hath givenH5414 me all the kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776; and he hath chargedH6485 me to buildH1129 him an houseH1004 at JerusalemH3389, which is in JudahH3063.
Who is there among you of all his peopleH5971? his GodH430 be with him, and let him go upH5927 to JerusalemH3389, which is in JudahH3063, and buildH1129 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, (he is the GodH430,) which is in JerusalemH3389.
And whosoever remainethH7604 in any placeH4725 where he sojournethH1481, let the menH582 of his placeH4725 helpH5375 him with silverH3701, and with goldH2091, and with goodsH7399, and with beastsH929, beside the freewill offeringH5071 for the houseH1004 of GodH430 that is in JerusalemH3389. {help…: Heb. lift him up}
Then rose upH6965 the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144, and the priestsH3548, and the LevitesH3881, with all them whose spiritH7307 GodH430 had raisedH5782, to go upH5927 to buildH1129 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 which is in JerusalemH3389.
And all they that were aboutH5439 them strengthenedH2388 their handsH3027 with vesselsH3627 of silverH3701, with goldH2091, with goodsH7399, and with beastsH929, and with precious thingsH4030, beside all that was willingly offeredH5068. {strengthened…: that is, helped them}
Also CyrusH3566 the kingH4428 brought forthH3318 the vesselsH3627 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, which NebuchadnezzarH5019 had brought forthH3318 out of JerusalemH3389, and had putH5414 them in the houseH1004 of his godsH430;
Even those did CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539 bring forthH3318 by the handH3027 of MithredathH4990 the treasurerH1489, and numberedH5608 them unto SheshbazzarH8339, the princeH5387 of JudahH3063.
In the firstH2298 yearH8140 of CyrusH3567 the kingH4430 the same CyrusH3567 the kingH4430 madeH7761 a decreeH2942 concerning the houseH1005 of GodH426 at JerusalemH3390, Let the houseH1005 be buildedH1124, the placeH870 where they offeredH1684 sacrificesH1685, and let the foundationsH787 thereof be strongly laidH5446; the heightH7314 thereof threescoreH8361 cubitsH521, and the breadthH6613 thereof threescoreH8361 cubitsH521;
With threeH8532 rowsH5073 of greatH1560 stonesH69, and a rowH5073 of newH2323 timberH636: and let the expensesH5313 be givenH3052 out ofH4481 the king'sH4430 houseH1005:
And alsoH638 let the goldenH1722 and silverH3702 vesselsH3984 of the houseH1005 of GodH426, which NebuchadnezzarH5020 took forthH5312 out ofH4481 the templeH1965 which is at JerusalemH3390, and broughtH2987 unto BabylonH895, be restoredH8421, and brought againH1946 unto the templeH1965 which is at JerusalemH3390, every one to his placeH870, and placeH5182 them in the houseH1005 of GodH426. {brought again: Chaldee, go}
That saithH559 of CyrusH3566, He is my shepherdH7462, and shall performH7999 all my pleasureH2656: even sayingH559 to JerusalemH3389, Thou shalt be builtH1129; and to the templeH1964, Thy foundation shall be laidH3245.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 to his anointedH4899, to CyrusH3566, whose right handH3225 I have holdenH2388, to subdueH7286 nationsH1471 beforeH6440 him; and I will looseH6605 the loinsH4975 of kingsH4428, to openH6605 beforeH6440 him the two leaved gatesH1817; and the gatesH8179 shall not be shutH5462; {have…: or, strengthened}
