Ezra 6:11-12

11And I issued a decree that 1any person who violates this decree, a timber shall be pulled out of his house and he shall be impaled on it; and 2his house shall be turned into a refuse heap on account of this. 12May the God who 3has caused His name to dwell there overthrow any king or people who 4attempts to 5change it, so as to destroy that house of God in Jerusalem. I, Darius, have issued this decree; it is to be carried out with all diligence!”
