H5029
Then the prophets,
H2292
Haggai
H5029
the prophet,
H2148
and Zechariah
H1247
the son
H5714
of Iddo,
H5013
prophesied
H3062
to the Jews
H3061
that were in Judah
H3390
and Jerusalem
H8036
in the name
H426
of the God
H3479
of Israel, even to them.
2
H116
Then
H6965
rose
H2217
up Zerubbabel
H1247
the son
H7597
of Shealtiel,
H3443
and Jeshua
H1247
the son
H3136
of Jozadak,
H8271
and began
H1124
to build
H1005
the house
H426
of God
H1768
which
H3390
is at Jerusalem:
H5029
and with them were the prophets
H426
of God
H5582
helping them.
3
H2166
At the same time
H858
came
H8674
to them Tatnai,
H6347
governor
H5675
on this side
H5103
the river,
H8370
and Shetharboznai
H3675
and their companions,
H560
and said
H3652
thus
H4479
to them, Who
H7761
has commanded
H2942
H1124
you to build
H1836
this
H1005
house,
H3635
and to make
H1836
up this
H846
wall?
4
H116
Then
H560
said
H3660
we to them after this
H4479
manner, What
H8036
are the names
H1400
of the men
H1124
that make
H1836
this
H1147
building?
5
H5870
But the eye
H426
of their God
H7868
was on the elders
H3062
of the Jews,
H989
that they could not cause them to cease,
H5705
till
H2941
the matter
H1946
came
H1868
to Darius:
H116
and then
H8421
they returned
H8421
answer
H5407
by letter
H5922
concerning
H1836
this matter.
6
H6573
The copy
H104
of the letter
H8674
that Tatnai,
H6347
governor
H5675
on this side
H5103
the river,
H8370
and Shetharboznai
H3675
and his companions
H671
the Apharsachites,
H1768
which
H5675
were on this side
H5103
the river,
H7972
sent
H1868
to Darius
H4430
the king:
7
H7972
They sent
H6600
a letter
H1459
to him, wherein
H3790
was written
H1836
thus;
H1868
To Darius
H4430
the king,
H3606
all
H8001
peace.
8
H3046
Be it known
H4430
to the king,
H236
that we went
H4083
into the province
H3061
of Judea,
H1005
to the house
H7229
of the great
H426
God,
H1931
which
H1124
is built
H1560
with great
H69
stones,
H636
and timber
H7760
is laid
H3797
in the walls,
H1791
and this
H5673
work
H5648
goes
H629
fast
H6744
on, and prospers
H3028
in their hands.
9
H116
Then
H7593
asked
H479
we those
H7868
elders,
H560
and said
H3660
to them thus,
H4479
Who
H7761
commanded
H2942
H1124
you to build
H1836
this
H1005
house,
H3635
and to make
H1836
up these
H846
walls?
10
H7593
We asked
H8036
their names
H638
also,
H3046
to certify
H3790
you, that we might write
H8036
the names
H1400
of the men
H7217
that were the chief of them.
11
H3660
And thus
H8421
they returned
H6600
us answer,
H560
saying,
H5649
We are the servants
H426
of the God
H8065
of heaven
H772
and earth,
H1124
and build
H1005
the house
H1124
that was built
H1836
these
H7690
many
H8140
years
H6928
ago,
H7229
which a great
H4430
king
H3479
of Israel
H1124
built
H3635
and set up.
12
H4481
But after
H2
that our fathers
H7265
had provoked
H426
the God
H8065
of heaven
H7265
to wrath,
H3052
he gave
H3028
them into the hand
H5020
of Nebuchadnezzar
H4430
the king
H895
of Babylon,
H3777
the Chaldean,
H5642
who destroyed
H1836
this
H1005
house,
H1541
and carried
H5972
the people
H1541
away
H895
into Babylon.
13
H2298
But in the first
H8140
year
H3567
of Cyrus
H4430
the king
H895
of Babylon
H4430
the same king
H3567
Cyrus
H7761
made
H2942
a decree
H1124
to build
H1836
this
H1005
house
H426
of God.
14
H3984
And the vessels
H638
also
H1722
of gold
H3702
and silver
H1005
of the house
H426
of God,
H1768
which
H5020
Nebuchadnezzar
H5312
took
H1965
out of the temple
H3390
that was in Jerusalem,
H2987
and brought
H1965
them into the temple
H895
of Babylon,
H1994
those
H3567
did Cyrus
H4430
the king
H5312
take
H1965
out of the temple
H895
of Babylon,
H3052
and they were delivered
H8036
to one, whose name
H8339
was Sheshbazzar,
H1768
whom
H7761
he had made
H6347
governor;
15
H560
And said
H5376
to him, Take
H412
these
H3984
vessels,
H236
go,
H5182
carry
H1965
them into the temple
H3390
that is in Jerusalem,
H1005
and let the house
H426
of God
H1124
be built
H870
in his place.
16
H116
Then
H858
came
H1791
the same
H8339
Sheshbazzar,
H3052
and laid
H787
the foundation
H1005
of the house
H426
of God
H1768
which
H3390
is in Jerusalem:
H4481
and since
H116
that time
H5704
even until
H3705
now
H1124
has it been in building,
H8000
and yet it is not finished.
17
H3705
Now
H2006
therefore, if
H2869
it seem good
H4430
to the king,
H1240
let there be search
H4430
made in the king’s
H1596
treasure
H1005
house,
H1768
which
H8536
is there
H895
at Babylon,
H2006
whether
H2942
it be so, that a decree
H7761
was made
H3567
of Cyrus
H4430
the king
H1124
to build
H1791
this
H1005
house
H426
of God
H3390
at Jerusalem,
H4430
and let the king
H7972
send
H7470
his pleasure
H5922
to us concerning
H1836
this
H1836
matter.
