44 Let the cost of rebuilding and restoring the structures of the sanctuary be paid from the king's revenues.

45 And let the cost of rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem and revitalizing it all round, and the cost of rebuilding the walls in Judea, also be paid from the king's revenues.

46 When Jonathan and the people heard these words, they didn't believe or accept them. They remembered vividly the great wrongs Demetrius had done in Israel and how much he had oppressed them.

47 They preferred Alexander because he had been the first to speak peaceful words to them. So they remained his allies all of his days.
