3
But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua, and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel, said unto them, Ye have nothing to do with us to build an house unto our God; but we ourselves together will build unto the LORD God of Israel, as king Cyrus the king of Persia hath commanded us.

Be it known unto the king, that the Jews which came up from thee to us are come unto Jerusalem, building the rebellious and the bad city, and have set upf the walls thereof, and joined the foundations.
13
Be it known now unto the king, that, if this city be builded, and the walls set up again, then will they not payg toll, tribute, and custom, and so thou shalt endamage the revenue of the kings.
14
Now because we haveh maintenance from the king's palace, and it was not meet for us to see the king's dishonour, therefore have we sent and certified the king;
15

16
We certify the king that, if this city be builded again, and the walls thereof set up, by this means thou shalt have no portion on this side the river.
