We asked the elders some questions. We said to them, "Who authorized you to rebuild this temple? Who told you that you could make this building like new again?"

Toen hebben wij denzelven oudsten gevraagd, en aldus tot hen gezegd: Wie heeft ulieden bevel gegeven dit huis te bouwen, en dezen muur te voltrekken?

Therefore we asked those eld(er) men, and thus we said to them, Who gave to you power to build (again) this house, and to restore these walls? (And so we asked those elders, and we said to them thus, Who gave you the authority to rebuild this House, and to restore these walls?)
