Ezra 4:19-22 And I commanded, and search has been made, and it is found that this city of old time has made insurrection against kings, and that rebellion and sedition have been made therein.

AKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁹ And I commanded, and search has been made, and it is found that this city of old time has made insurrection against kings, and that rebellion and sedition have been made therein. ²⁰ There have been mighty kings also over Jerusalem, which have ruled over all countries beyond the river; and toll, tribute, and custom, was paid to them. ²¹ Give you now commandment to cause these men to cease, and that this city be not built, until another commandment shall be given from me. ²² Take heed now that you fail not to do this: why should damage grow to the hurt of the kings?
