3But ZerubbabelH2216, JeshuaH3442, and the otherH7605 headsH7218 of the familiesH1 of IsraelH3478 repliedH559, “You have noH3808 part with us in buildingH1129 a houseH1004 for our GodH430, sinceH3588 weH587 aloneH3162 must buildH1129 it for the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, asH834 CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539 has commanded usH6680.”
4ThenH1961 the peopleH5971 of the landH776 set out to discourageH7503H3027 the peopleH5971 of JudahH3063 and make them afraidH1089 to buildH1129. 5They hiredH7936 counselorsH3289 against themH5921 to frustrateH6565 their plansH6098 throughoutH3605 the reignH3117 of CyrusH3566 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539 and down toH5704 the reignH4438 of DariusH1867 kingH4428 of PersiaH6539.
