A Dedicação do Templo

13 Tendo recebido o decreto do rei Dario, Tatenai, governador do território situado a oeste do Eufrates, Setar-Bozenai e os companheiros deles o cumpriram plenamente.

14 Dessa maneira, os líderes dos judeus continuaram a construir e a prosperar, encorajados pela pregação dos profetas Ageu e Zacarias, descendente de Ido. Eles terminaram a reconstrução do templo conforme a ordem do Deus de Israel e os decretos de Ciro, de Dario e de Artaxerxes, reis da Pérsia.

15 O templo foi concluído no terceiro dia do mês de adar,^[a] no sexto ano do reinado do rei Dario.
