| Esd 5:1 | Then the prophets, H5029 Haggai H2292 the prophet, H5029 and Zechariah H2148 the son H1247 of Iddo, H5714 prophesied H5013 unto H5922 the Jews H3062 that H1768 were in Judah H3061 and Jerusalem H3390 in the name H8036 of the God H426 of Israel, H3479 even unto H5922 them. |
| Esd 5:2 | Then H116 rose up H6966 Zerubbabel H2217 the son H1247 of Shealtiel, H7598 and Jeshua H3443 the son H1247 of Jozadak, H3136 and began H8271 to build H1124 the house H1005 of God H426 which H1768 is at Jerusalem: H3390 and with H5974 them were the prophets H5029 of H1768 God H426 helping H5583 them. |
| Esd 5:3 | At the same time H2166 came H858 to H5922 them Tatnai, H8674 governor H6347 on this side H5675 the river, H5103 and Shetharboznai, H8370 and their companions, H3675 and said H560 thus H3652 unto them, Who H4479 hath commanded H7761 H2942 you to build H1124 this H1836 house, H1005 and to make up H3635 this H1836 wall?H846 |
| Esd 5:4 | Then H116 said H560 we unto them after this manner, H3660 What H4479 are the names H8036 of the men H1400 that H1768 make H1124 this H1836 building?H1147 |
| Esd 5:5 | But the eye H5870 of their God H426 was H1934 upon H5922 the elders H7868 of the Jews, H3062 that they could not H3809 cause them H1994 to cease, H989 till H5705 the matter H2941 came H1946 to Darius: H1868 and then H116 they returned answer H8421 by letter H5407 concerning H5922 this H1836 matter. |
| Esd 5:6 | The copy H6573 of the letter H104 that H1768 Tatnai, H8674 governor H6347 on this side H5675 the river, H5103 and Shetharboznai, H8370 and his companions H3675 the Apharsachites, H671 which H1768 were on this side H5675 the river, H5103 sent H7972 unto H5922 Darius H1868 the king:H4430 |
| Esd 5:7 | They sent H7972 a letter H6600 unto H5922 him, wherein H1459 was written H3790 thus; H1836 Unto Darius H1868 the king, H4430 all H3606 peace.H8001 |
| Esd 5:8 | Be H1934 it known H3046 unto the king, H4430 that H1768 we went H236 into the province H4083 of Judea, H3061 to the house H1005 of the great H7229 God, H426 which H1932 is builded H1124 with great H1560 stones, H69 and timber H636 is laid H7761 in the walls, H3797 and this H1791 work H5673 goeth H5648 fast on, H629 and prospereth H6744 in their hands.H3028 |
| Esd 5:9 | Then H116 asked H7593 we those H479 elders, H7868 and said H560 unto them thus, H3660 Who H4479 commanded H7761 H2942 you to build H1124 this H1836 house, H1005 and to make up H3635 these H1836 walls?H846 |
| Esd 5:10 | We asked H7593 their names H8036 also, H638 to certify H3046 thee, that H1768 we might write H3790 the names H8036 of the men H1400 that H1768 were the chief H7217 of them. |
| Esd 5:11 | And thus H3660 they returned H8421 us answer, H6600 saying, H560 We H586 are the servants H5649 of H1768 the God H426 of heaven H8065 and earth, H772 and build H1124 the house H1005 that H1768 was H1934 builded H1124 these H1836 many H7690 years H8140 ago, H4481 H6928 which a great H7229 king H4430 of Israel H3479 builded H1124 and set up.H3635 |
| Esd 5:12 | But H3861 after H4481 that H1768 our fathers H2 had provoked the God of heaven unto wrath, H7265 H426 H8065 he gave H3052 them H1994 into the hand H3028 of Nebuchadnezzar H5020 the king H4430 of Babylon, H895 the Chaldean, H3679 who destroyed H5642 this H1836 house, H1005 and carried the people away H1541 H5972 into Babylon.H895 |
| Esd 5:13 | But H1297 in the first H2298 year H8140 of Cyrus H3567 the king H4430 of H1768 Babylon H895 the same king H4430 Cyrus H3567 made H7761 a decree H2942 to build H1124 this H1836 house H1005 of God.H426 |
| Esd 5:14 | And the vessels H3984 also H638 of H1768 gold H1722 and silver H3702 of H1768 the house H1005 of God, H426 which H1768 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 took H5312 out of H4481 the temple H1965 that H1768 was in Jerusalem, H3390 and brought H2987 them H1994 into the temple H1965 of H1768 Babylon, H895 those H1994 did Cyrus H3567 the king H4430 take H5312 out of H4481 the temple H1965 of H1768 Babylon, H895 and they were delivered H3052 unto one, whose name H8036 was Sheshbazzar, H8340 whom H1768 he had made H7761 governor;H6347 |
| Esd 5:15 | And said H560 unto him, Take H5376 these H459 vessels, H3984 go, H236 carry H5182 them H1994 into the temple H1965 that H1768 is in Jerusalem, H3390 and let the house H1005 of God H426 be builded H1124 in H5922 his place.H870 |
| Esd 5:16 | Then H116 came H858 the same H1791 Sheshbazzar, H8340 and laid H3052 the foundation H787 of H1768 the house H1005 of God H426 which H1768 is in Jerusalem: H3390 and since H4481 that time H116 even until H5705 now H3705 hath it been in building, H1124 and yet it is not H3809 finished.H8000 |
| Esd 5:17 | Now H3705 therefore, if H2006 it seem good H2869 to H5922 the king, H4430 let there be search made H1240 in the king's H4430 treasure H1596 house, H1005 which H1768 is there H8536 at Babylon, H895 whether H2006 it be H383 so, that H1768 a decree H2942 was made H7761 of H4481 Cyrus H3567 the king H4430 to build H1124 this H1791 house H1005 of God H426 at Jerusalem, H3390 and let the king H4430 send H7972 his pleasure H7470 to H5922 us concerning H5922 this matter.H1836 |
