11And thusH1836 they returnedH8421 usH5649 answerH6600, sayingH560, WeH586 are the servantsH5649 of the GodH426 of heavenH8065 and earthH772, and build the houseH1005 that was builded theseH1836 manyH7690 yearsH8140 agoH6928, whichH1768 a greatH7229 kingH4430 of IsraelH3479 builded and finishedH3635.

12But afterH4481 that our fathersH2 had provokedH7265 the GodH426 of heavenH8065 unto wrathH7265, he gaveH3052 them into the handH3028 of NebuchadnezzarH5020 kingH4430 of BabylonH895, the Chaldean, who destroyed this houseH1005, and carried the peopleH5972 away into BabylonH895.

13But in the firstH2298 yearH8140 of CyrusH3567 kingH4430 of BabylonH895, CyrusH3567 the kingH4430 madeH7761 a decreeH2942 to build this houseH1005 of GodH426.

14And the goldH1722 and sliver vesselsH3984 also of the houseH1005 of GodH426, whichH1768 NebuchadnezzarH5020 tookH5312 out of the templeH1005 that was in JerusalemH3390, and broughtH2987 them into the templeH1005 of BabylonH895, thoseH1768 did CyrusH3567 the kingH4430 take out of the templeH1005 of BabylonH895, and they were delivered unto one whoseH1768 nameH8036 was SheshbazzarH8340, whomH1768 he had madeH7761 governorH6347;

15and he saidH560 unto him, TakeH5376 theseH412 vesselsH3984, goH236, putH5182 them in the templeH1005 that is in JerusalemH3390, and let the houseH1005 of GodH426 be builded in its placeH870.
