於是大流士王降旨，要尋察典籍庫內，就是在巴比倫藏寶物之處；
2 And it was found in Ecbatana in citadel the which [is] in Media province the a scroll one and as follows it was written in midst its memorandum.
在米底亞省亞馬他城的宮內尋得一卷，其中記着說：

用三層大石頭，一層新木頭，經費要出於王庫；

並且上帝殿的金銀器皿，就是尼布甲尼撒從耶路撒冷的殿中掠到巴比倫的，要歸還帶到耶路撒冷的殿中，各按原處放在上帝的殿裏。」
6 Now O Tattenai [the] governor of [the] region beyond river the Shethar-Bozenai and associates their officials the who [are] in [the] region beyond river the far be! from there.
「現在河西的總督達乃和示他‧波斯乃，並你們的同黨，就是住河西的亞法薩迦人，你們當遠離他們。

我又降旨，吩咐你們向猶大人的長老為建造上帝的殿當怎樣行，就是從河西的款項中，急速撥取貢銀作他們的經費，免得耽誤工作。

10 That they will be offering soothing offerings to [the] God of heavens the and praying for [the] life of king the and sons his.
好叫他們獻馨香的祭給天上的上帝，又為王和王眾子的壽命祈禱。
11 And from me it is made a decree that every person who he will violate command the this let it be pulled away a beam from house his and [he will] be lifted up let him be impaled on it and house his a refuse-heap let it be made on this.
我再降旨，無論誰更改這命令，必從他房屋中拆出一根樑來，把他舉起，懸在其上，又使他的房屋成為糞堆。
12 And God who he has caused to dwell name his there may he overthrow every king and people who - he will stretch out hand his to violate to destroy [the] house of God this which [is] in Jerusalem I Darius I make a decree diligently let it be done.
若有王和民伸手更改這命令，拆毀這殿，願那使耶路撒冷的殿作為他名居所的上帝將他們滅絕。我－大流士降這旨意，當速速遵行。」

猶大長老因先知哈該和易多的孫子撒迦利亞所說勸勉的話就建造這殿，凡事亨通。他們遵着以色列上帝的命令和波斯王塞魯士、大流士、亞達薛西的旨意，建造完畢。
15 And it was brought forth house the this until day three of [the] month of Adar which it [was] year six of [the] reign of Darius king the.
大流士王第六年，亞達月初三日，這殿修成了。

行奉獻上帝殿的禮就獻公牛一百隻，公綿羊二百隻，綿羊羔四百隻，又照以色列支派的數目獻公山羊十二隻，為以色列眾人作贖罪祭；
18 And they appointed priests the in divisions their and Levites the in classes their over [the] service of God which [is] in Jerusalem according to [the] writing of [the] book of Moses.
且派祭司和利未人按着班次在耶路撒冷事奉上帝，是照摩西律法書上所寫的。
19 And they celebrated [the] children of the exile the passover on [day] four-teen of the month the first.
正月十四日，被擄歸回的人守逾越節。
20 For they had purified themselves the priests and the Levites as one all of them [were] pure and they slaughtered the passover for all [the] children of the exile and for brothers their the priests and for themselves.
原來，祭司和利未人一同自潔，無一人不潔淨。利未人為被擄歸回的眾人和他們的弟兄眾祭司，並為自己宰逾越節的羊羔。
21 And they ate [the] people of Israel who had returned from the exile and every [one who] had separated himself from [the] uncleanness of [the] nations of the land to them to seek Yahweh [the] God of Israel.
從擄到之地歸回的以色列人和一切除掉所染外邦人污穢、歸附他們、要尋求耶和華－以色列上帝的人都吃這羊羔，
