And you will find ^H7912 in the record ^H1799 books ^H5609 and come to know ^H3046 that that city ^H7149 is a rebellious ^H4779 city ^H7149 and damaging ^H5142 to kings ^H4430 and provinces ^H4083, and that they have incited ^H5648 revolt ^H849 within ^H1459 it in past ^H5957 days ^H3118; therefore ^H5922 H1836 that city ^H7149 was laid ^H2718 waste ^H2718.

Then ^H116 as soon ^H4481 H1768 as the copy ^H6573 of King ^H4430 Artaxerxes’ ^H783 document ^H5407 was read ^H7123 before ^H6925 Rehum ^H7348 and Shimshai ^H8124 the scribe ^H5613 and their colleagues ^H3675, they went ^H236 in haste ^H924 to Jerusalem ^H3390 to the Jews ^H3062 and stopped ^H989 them by force ^H153 and military ^H2429.

‘Also ^H638 the gold ^H1722 and silver ^H3702 utensils ^H3984 of the house ^H1005 of God ^H426, which ^H1768 Nebuchadnezzar ^H5020 had taken ^H5312 from the temple ^H1965 [fn]in Jerusalem ^H3390 and brought ^H2987 them to the temple ^H1965 of Babylon ^H895, these ^H1994 King ^H4430 Cyrus ^H3567 took ^H5312 out ^H5312 from the temple ^H1965 of Babylon ^H895, and they were given ^H3052 to one whose name ^H8036 was Sheshbazzar ^H8340, whom ^H1768 he had appointed ^H7761 governor ^H6347.

‘Then ^H116 that Sheshbazzar ^H8340 came ^H858 and laid ^H3052 the foundations ^H787 of the house ^H1005 of God ^H426 [fn]in Jerusalem ^H3390; and from then ^H116 until ^H5705 now ^H3705 it is being ^H1124 rebuilt ^H1124, and it is not yet finished ^H8000.’

“Moreover, I issue ^H7761 a decree ^H2942 concerning what ^H4101 H1768 you shall do ^H5648 for those ^H479 elders ^H7868 of Judah ^H3062 in the rebuilding ^H1124 of that ^H1791 house ^H1005 of God ^H426: the full ^H629 cost ^H5313 is to be given ^H3052 to those ^H479 people ^H1400 from the royal ^H4430 treasury ^H5232 out of the tribute ^H4061 of the provinces beyond ^H5675 the River ^H5103, and that without ^H3809 negligence ^H989.

“And I issued ^H7761 a decree ^H2942 that any ^H3606 man ^H606 who ^H1768 violates ^H8133 this ^H1836 edict ^H6600, a timber ^H636 shall be pulled ^H5256 out ^H5256 from his house ^H1005 and he shall be impaled ^H2211 H4223 on it and his house ^H1005 shall be made ^H5648 a refuse ^H5122 heap ^H5122 on account ^H5922 of this ^H1836.

I have issued ^H7761 a decree ^H2942 that any ^H3606 of the people ^H5972 of Israel ^H3479 and their priests ^H3549 and the Levites ^H3879 in my kingdom ^H4437 who ^H1768 freely ^H5069 offer ^H5069 to go ^H1981 to Jerusalem ^H3390, may go ^H1981 with you.

“Whatever ^H3606 H1768 is [fn]decreed ^H4481 H2942 by the God ^H426 of heaven ^H8065, let it be done ^H5648 with zeal ^H149 for the house ^H1005 of the God ^H426 of heaven ^H8065, so ^H1768 that there will not be wrath ^H7109 against ^H5922 the kingdom ^H4437 of the king ^H4430 and his sons ^H1123.

“Whoever ^H3605 will not do ^H5648 the law ^H1882 of your God ^H426 and the law ^H1882 of the king ^H4430, let judgment ^H1780 be done ^H5648 to him with all ^H629 diligence ^H629, whether ^H2006 for death ^H4193 or ^H2006 for [fn]banishment ^H8332 or ^H2006 for confiscation ^H6065 of goods ^H5232 or for imprisonment ^H613.”

[fn]Thus ^H1836 you shall say ^H560 to them, “The gods ^H426 that did not make ^H5648 the heavens ^H8065 and the earth ^H778 will perish ^H7 from the earth ^H778 and from under ^H8460 [fn]the heavens ^H8065.”

“Let the name ^H8036 of God ^H426 be blessed ^H1289 forever ^H5957 and ever ^H5957,

For wisdom ^H2452 and might ^H1370 belong to Him.

“To You, O God ^H426 of my fathers ^H2, I give ^H3029 thanks ^H3029 and praise ^H7624,

For You have given ^H3052 me wisdom ^H2452 and might ^H1370;

Even now ^H3705 You have made ^H3046 known ^H3046 to me what ^H1768 we sought ^H1156 from You,

For You have made ^H3046 known ^H3046 to us the king’s ^H4430 matter ^H4406.”

Then ^H116 Arioch ^H746 hurriedly ^H927 brought ^H5954 Daniel ^H1841 before ^H6925 the king ^H4430 and said ^H560 thus ^H3652 to him: “I have found ^H7912 a man ^H1400 among ^H4481 H1123 the [fn]exiles ^H1123 H1547 from Judah ^H3061 who ^H1768 can make ^H3046 the interpretation ^H6591 known ^H3046 to the king ^H4430!”

‘Its foliage ^H6074 was beautiful ^H8209 and its fruit ^H4 abundant ^H7690,

And in it was food ^H4203 for all ^H3606.

The beasts ^H2423 of the field ^H1251 found ^H2927 shade ^H2927 under ^H8460 it,

And the birds ^H6853 of the sky ^H8065 inhabited ^H1753 its branches ^H6056,

And all ^H3606 flesh ^H1321 fed ^H2110 itself from it.

“Let his heart ^H3825 be changed ^H8133 from that of a man ^H606,

And let the heart ^H3825 of a beast ^H2423 be given ^H3052 to him,

And let seven ^H7655 [fn]periods of time ^H5732 pass ^H2499 over ^H5922 him.
