11ThusH3660 they 1answeredH8421H6600 us, sayingH560, ‘We are the servantsH5649 of the GodH426 of heavenH8065 and earthH772 and are rebuildingH1124 the templeH1005 that was builtH1124 manyH7690 yearsH8140 agoH6928, 2which a greatH7229 kingH4430 of IsraelH3479 builtH1124 and finishedH3635.

12But 3becauseH4481H1768 our fathersH2 had provokedH7265 the GodH426 of heavenH8065 to wrathH7265, 4He gaveH3052 them into the handH3028 of NebuchadnezzarH5020 kingH4430 of BabylonH895, the ChaldeanH3779, who destroyedH5642 thisH1836 templeH1005 and deportedH1541 the peopleH5972 to BabylonH895.
