7 "To Emperor Darius, may you rule in peace.
8 "Your Majesty should know that we went to the province of Judahand found that the Temple of the great God is being rebuilt with large stone blocks and with wooden beams set in the wall. The work is being done with great care and is moving ahead steadily.
9 "We then asked the leaders of the people to tell us who had given them authority to rebuild the Temple and to equip it. 10 We also asked them their names so that we could inform you who the leaders of this work are.
11 "They answered, ‘We are servants of the God of heaven and earth, and we are rebuilding the Temple which was originally built and equipped many years ago by a powerful king of Israel. 12 2 K 25.8-12;2 Ch 36.17-20;Jr 52.12-15But because our ancestors made the God of Heaven angry, he let them be conquered by King Nebuchadnezzarof Babylonia, a king of the Chaldean dynasty. The Temple was destroyed, and the people were taken into exile in Babylonia. 13 Ezra 1.2-11Then in the first year of the reign of King Cyrusas emperor of Babylonia, Cyrusissued orders for the Temple to be rebuilt. 14 He restored the gold and silver Temple utensils which Nebuchadnezzarhad taken from the Temple in Jerusalemand had placed in the temple in Babylon. Emperor Cyrusturned these utensils over to a man named Sheshbazzar, whom he appointed governor of Judah. 15 The emperor told him to take them and return them to the Temple in Jerusalem, and to rebuild the Temple where it had stood before. 16 So Sheshbazzarcame and laid its foundation; construction has continued from then until the present, but it is still not finished.’
17 "Now, if it please Your Majesty, have a search made in the royal records in Babylonto find whether or not Emperor Cyrusgave orders for this Temple in Jerusalemto be rebuilt, and then inform us what your will is in this matter."
