3But ZerubbabelH2216, and JeshuaH3442, and the restH7605 of the headsH7218 of fathers’H1 housesH1004 of IsraelH3478, saidH559 unto them, Ye have nothing to do with us in buildingH1129 a houseH1004 unto our GodH430; but we ourselves togetherH3162 will buildH1129 unto Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, as kingH4428 CyrusH3566 the kingH4428 of PersiaH6539 hath commandedH6680 us. 4Then the peopleH5971 of the landH776 weakened the handsH3027 of the peopleH5971 of JudahH3063, and troubled them in buildingH1129, 5and hiredH7936 counsellors against them, to frustrate their purposeH6098, all the daysH3117 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539, even until the reignH4438 of DariusH1867 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539. 6And in the reignH4438 of AhasuerusH325, in the beginning of his reignH4438, wroteH3789 they an accusation against the inhabitantsH3427 of JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389.
