Ezra 6:11-12
New International Version
11 Furthermore, I decree that if anyone defies this edict, a beam is to be pulled from their house and they are to be impaled(A) on it. And for this crime their house is to be made a pile of rubble.(B) 12 May God, who has caused his Name to dwell there,(C) overthrow any king or people who lifts a hand to change this decree or to destroy this temple in Jerusalem.
I Darius(D) have decreed it. Let it be carried out with diligence.
Ezra 6:11-12
King James Version
11 Also I have made a decree, that whosoever shall alter this word, let timber be pulled down from his house, and being set up, let him be hanged thereon; and let his house be made a dunghill for this.
12 And the God that hath caused his name to dwell there destroy all kings and people, that shall put to their hand to alter and to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree; let it be done with speed.
