Ezra 5:2-6

2ThenH116 rose up Zerubbabel the sonH1247 of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the sonH1247 of Jozadak, and began to build the houseH1005 of 1GodH426 which is at JerusalemH3390; and with them were the prophetsH5029 of 2GodH426, who helped them.

3At that timeH2166 cameH858 to them Tatnai, governorH6347 on this side the riverH5103, and Shethar-boznai, and their companions, and saidH560 thus to them: Who gave you orders to build this houseH1005 and to complete this wall?

4And they saidH560 to them after this manner: What are the namesH8036 of the menH1400 that build this buildingH1124?

5But the eye of their 3GodH426 was upon the eldersH7868 of the JewsH3062, and they did not make them ceaseH989 till the matter came to DariusH1868; and thenH116 they returnedH8421 answer by letter concerningH5922 it.

6The copyH6573 of the letterH104 that Tatnai, governorH6347 on this side the riverH5103, and Shethar-boznai, and his companions the Apharsachites, who were on this side the riverH5103, sent to DariusH1868 the kingH4430.
