H7936 [H8802]
And hired
H3289 [H8802]

of the nations
H1768
whom
H7229
the great
H3358
and noble
H620
Asnappar
H1541 [H8684]
brought over
H3488 H1994 [H8684]

in the cities
H8115
of Samaria
H7606
, and the rest
H5675
that are on this side
H5103

H3706
, and now.
11
H1836
this
H6573
is the copy
H104
of the letter
H1768
that
H7972 [H8754]
they sent
H5922
to him
H783
, even to Artaxerxes
H4430
the king
H5649
; Thy servants
H606
the men
H5675
on this side
H5103
of the river
H3706
, and now.
12
H1934 [H8748]
let it be
H3046 [H8752]
known
H4430
to the king
H3062
, that the Jews
H1768
who
H5559 [H8760]
came
H4481
from
H3890
thee
H5922
to us
H858 [H8754]
are come
H3390
to Jerusalem
H1124 [H8750]
, building
H4779
the rebellious
H873
and the evil
H7149
city
H3635 H3635 [H8806]
, and have set up
H7792
the walls
H2338 [H8681]
, and joined
H787
the foundations.
13
H3046 H1934 [H8752]
Be it known
H3705
now
H4430
to the king
H2006
, that, if
H1791
this
H7149
city
H1124 [H8731]
shall be built
H7792
, and the walls
H3635 [H8720]
set up
H3809
again, then they will not
H5415 [H8748]
pay
H4061
toll
H1093
, tribute
H1983
, and custom
H5142 [H8681]
, and so thou shalt diminish
H674
the revenue
H4430
of the kings.
14
H3705
Now
H6903 H3606
because
H1768
we have
H4415 H4416 [H8754]
maintenance
H1965
from the king's palace
H3809
, and it was not
H749 [H8750]
good
H2370 [H8749]
for us to see
H4430
the king's
H6173
dishonour
H5922 H1836
, therefore
H7972 [H8754]
have we sent
H3046 [H8684]
and informed
H4430
the king;
15
H1240 [H8741]
That search
H5609
may be made in the book
H1799
of the records
H2
of thy fathers
H7912 [H8681]
: so shalt thou find
H5609
in the book
H1799
of the records
H3046 [H8748]
, and know
H1791
that this
H7149
city
H4779
is a rebellious
H7149
city
H5142 [H8683]
, and hurtful
H4430
to kings
H4083
and provinces
H5648 [H8751]
, and that they have moved
H849
sedition
H1459
within the same
H4481
from of
H5957 H3118
old
H5922
: for
H1836
which
H1791
cause was this
H7149
city
H2718 [H8717]
destroyed.
