דֵּיכֵי, feminine דָּח; Arabic 
; Ethiopic 
From 
זֶה, דָּא (feminine), with the affix ך (WCG 110), thus literally = German dieser da. The plural is H1797 אִלֵּךְ, which see); — this (always after its substantive), Ezra 5:16 דֵּךְ שֵׁשְׁבַּצַּר, Ezra 5:17 בֵּית־אֱלָהֲ דֵךְ, Ezra 6:7, 8, 12; feminine Ezra 4:13,15,16 (twice in verse); Ezra 4:19,21 all דָךְ קִרְיְתָא, Ezra 5:8.
Strong's Number H1791 matches the Hebrew דֵּךְ (dēḵ),
which occurs 13 times in 11 verses
in the WLC Hebrew.
Let it now be known to the king that if that city is rebuilt and its walls are finished, they will not pay tribute, duty, or land tax, and the royal revenue[fn] will suffer.
that a search should be made in your predecessors’ record books. In these record books you will discover and verify that the city is a rebellious city, harmful to kings and provinces. There have been revolts in it since ancient times. That is why this city was destroyed.
We advise the king that if this city is rebuilt and its walls are finished, you will not have any possession west of the Euphrates.
I issued a decree and a search was conducted. It was discovered that this city has had uprisings against kings since ancient times, and there have been rebellions and revolts in it.
Therefore, issue an order for these men to stop, so that this city will not be rebuilt until a further decree has been pronounced by me.
Let it be known to the king that we went to the house of the great God in the province of Judah. It is being built with cut[fn] stones, and its beams are being set in the walls. This work is being done diligently and succeeding through the people’s efforts.
Then this same Sheshbazzar came and laid the foundation of God’s house in Jerusalem. It has been under construction from that time until now, but it has not been completed.
So if it pleases the king, let a search of the royal archives[fn] in Babylon be conducted to see if it is true that a decree was issued by King Cyrus to rebuild the house of God in Jerusalem. Let the king’s decision regarding this matter be sent to us.
Leave the construction of the house of God alone. Let the governor and elders of the Jews rebuild this house of God on its original site.
I hereby issue a decree concerning what you are to do, so that the elders of the Jews can rebuild the house of God:
The cost is to be paid in full to these men out of the royal revenues from the taxes of the region west of the Euphrates River, so that the work will not stop.
