Ezra 6

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 tunc Darius rex praecepit et recensuerunt in bibliotheca librorum qui erant repositi in Babylone

2 et inventum est in Ecbathanis quod est castrum in Madena provincia volumen unum talisque scriptus erat in eo commentarius

3 anno primo Cyri regis Cyrus rex decrevit ut domus Dei quae est in Hierusalem aedificaretur in loco ubi immolent hostias et ut ponant fundamenta subportantia altitudinem cubitorum sexaginta et latitudinem cubitorum sexaginta

4 ordines de lapidibus inpolitis tres et sic ordines de lignis novis sumptus autem de domo regis dabuntur

5 sed et vasa templi Dei aurea et argentea quae Nabuchodonosor tulerat de templo Hierusalem et adtulerat ea in Babylonem reddantur et referantur in templo Hierusalem in locum suum quae et posita sunt in templo Dei

6 nunc ergo Tatannai dux regionis quae est trans Flumen Starbuzannai et consiliarii vestri Apharsacei qui estis trans Flumen procul recedite ab illis

7 et dimittite fieri templum Dei illud a duce Iudaeorum et a senioribus eorum domum Dei illam aedificent in loco suo

8 sed et a me praeceptum est quid oporteat fieri a presbyteris Iudaeorum illis ut aedificetur domus Dei scilicet ut de arca regis id est de tributis quae dantur de regione trans Flumen studiose sumptus dentur viris illis ne inpediatur opus

9 quod si necesse fuerit et vitulos et agnos et hedos in holocaustum Deo caeli frumentum sal vinum et oleum secundum ritum sacerdotum qui sunt in Hierusalem detur eis per dies singulos ne sit in aliquo querimonia

10 et offerant oblationes Deo caeli orentque pro vita regis et filiorum eius

11 a me ergo positum est decretum ut omnis homo qui hanc mutaverit iussionem tollatur lignum de domo ipsius et erigatur et configatur in eo domus autem eius publicetur

12 Deus autem qui habitare fecit nomen suum ibi dissipet omnia regna et populum qui extenderit manum suam ut repugnet et dissipet domum Dei illam quae est in Hierusalem ego Darius statui decretum quod studiose impleri volo

13 igitur Tatannai dux regionis trans Flumen et Starbuzannai et consiliarii eius secundum quod praeceperat Darius rex sic diligenter exsecuti sunt

14 seniores autem Iudaeorum aedificabant et prosperabantur iuxta prophetiam Aggei prophetae et Zacchariae filii Addo et aedificaverunt et construxerunt iubente Deo Israhel et iubente Cyro et Dario et Artarxerse regibus Persarum

15 et conpleverunt domum Dei istam usque ad diem tertium mensis adar qui est annus sextus regni Darii regis

16 fecerunt autem filii Israhel sacerdotes et Levitae et reliqui filiorum transmigrationis dedicationem domus Dei in gaudio

17 et obtulerunt in dedicationem domus Dei vitulos centum arietes ducentos agnos quadringentos hircos caprarum pro peccato totius Israhel duodecim iuxta numerum tribuum Israhel

18 et statuerunt sacerdotes in ordinibus suis et Levitas in vicibus suis super opera Dei in Hierusalem sicut scriptum est in libro Mosi

19 fecerunt autem filii transmigrationis pascha quartadecima die mensis primi

20 purificati enim fuerant sacerdotes et Levitae quasi unus omnes mundi ad immolandum pascha universis filiis transmigrationis et fratribus suis sacerdotibus et sibi

21 et comederunt filii Israhel qui reversi fuerant de transmigratione et omnis qui se separaverat a coinquinatione gentium terrae ad eos ut quaererent Dominum Deum Israhel

22 et fecerunt sollemnitatem azymorum septem diebus in laetitia quoniam laetificaverat eos Dominus et converterat cor regis Assur ad eos ut adiuvaret manus eorum in opere domus Domini Dei Israhel

New King James Version NKJV

1 Then King Darius issued a decree, and a search was made in the archives, where the treasures were stored in Babylon.

2 And at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of Media, a scroll was found, and in it a record was written thus:

3 In the first year of King Cyrus, King Cyrus issued a decree concerning the house of God at Jerusalem: "Let the house be rebuilt, the place where they offered sacrifices; and let the foundations of it be firmly laid, its height sixty cubits and its width sixty cubits,

4 with three rows of heavy stones and one row of new timber. Let the expenses be paid from the king's treasury.

5 Also let the gold and silver articles of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took from the temple which is in Jerusalem and brought to Babylon, be restored and taken back to the temple which is in Jerusalem, each to its place; and deposit them in the house of God"--

6 Now therefore, Tattenai, governor of the region beyond the River, and Shethar-Boznai, and your companions the Persians who are beyond the River, keep yourselves far from there.

7 Let the work of this house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews build this house of God on its site.

8 Moreover I issue a decree as to what you shall do for the elders of these Jews, for the building of this house of God: Let the cost be paid at the king's expense from taxes on the region beyond the River; this is to be given immediately to these men, so that they are not hindered.

9 And whatever they need--young bulls, rams, and lambs for the burnt offerings of the God of heaven, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the request of the priests who are in Jerusalem--let it be given them day by day without fail,

10 that they may offer sacrifices of sweet aroma to the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king and his sons.

11 Also I issue a decree that whoever alters this edict, let a timber be pulled from his house and erected, and let him be hanged on it; and let his house be made a refuse heap because of this.

12 And may the God who causes His name to dwell there destroy any king or people who put their hand to alter it, or to destroy this house of God which is in Jerusalem. I Darius issue a decree; let it be done diligently.

13 Then Tattenai, governor of the region beyond the River, Shethar-Boznai, and their companions diligently did according to what King Darius had sent.

14 So the elders of the Jews built, and they prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they built and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the command of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.

15 Now the temple was finished on the third day of the month of Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of King Darius.

16 Then the children of Israel, the priests and the Levites and the rest of the descendants of the captivity, celebrated the dedication of this house of God with joy.

17 And they offered sacrifices at the dedication of this house of God, one hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs, and as a sin offering for all Israel twelve male goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.

18 They assigned the priests to their divisions and the Levites to their divisions, over the service of God in Jerusalem, as it is written in the Book of Moses.

19 And the descendants of the captivity kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.

20 For the priests and the Levites had purified themselves; all of them were ritually clean. And they slaughtered the Passover lambs for all the descendants of the captivity, for their brethren the priests, and for themselves.

21 Then the children of Israel who had returned from the captivity ate together with all who had separated themselves from the filth of the nations of the land in order to seek the Lord God of Israel.

22 And they kept the Feast of Unleavened Bread seven days with joy; for the Lord made them joyful, and turned the heart of the king of Assyria toward them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel.
