Darius’s Decree
6 Therefore, you must stay away from that place, Tattenai governor of the region west of the Euphrates River, Shethar-bozenai, and your[a] colleagues, the officials in the region.(A) 7 Leave the construction of the house of God alone. Let the governor(B) and elders of the Jews rebuild this house of God on its original site.
8 I hereby issue a decree concerning what you must 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(C) from the taxes of the region west of the Euphrates River, so that the work will not stop.
