Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Later, the prophets Haggai and Zechariah son of Iddo prophesied to the Jews in Judah and Jerusalem in the name of the God of Israel, who was over them.
1那时，先知 哈该 和 易多 的孙子 撒迦利亚 奉 以色列 神的名向 犹大 和 耶路撒冷 的 犹大 人说劝勉的话。
2Then Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel and Jeshua son of Jozadak rose up and began to rebuild the house of God in Jerusalem. And the prophets of God were with them, helping them.
2于是 撒拉铁 的儿子 所罗巴伯 和 约萨达 的儿子 耶书亚 都起来动手建造 耶路撒冷 神的殿，有 神的先知在那里帮助他们。
3At that time Tattenai the governor of the region west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and their associates went to the Jews and asked, “Who authorized you to rebuild this temple and restore this structure?”
3当时 河西 的总督 达乃 和 示他·波斯乃 ，并他们的同党来问说：「谁降旨让你们建造这殿，修成这墙呢？」
4They also asked, “What are the names of the men who are constructing this building?”
4我们便告诉他们建造这殿的人叫什么名字。
5But the eye of their God was on the elders of the Jews, so that they were not stopped until a report was sent to Darius and written instructions about this matter were returned.
5神的眼目看顾 犹大 的长老，以致总督等没有叫他们停工，直到这事奏告 大流士 ，得着他的回谕。
6This is the text of the letter that Tattenai the governor of the region west of the Euphrates, Shethar-bozenai, and their associates, the officials in the region, sent to King Darius.
6河西 的总督 达乃 和 示他·波斯乃 ，并他们的同党，就是住 河西 的 亚法萨迦 人，上本奏告 大流士 王。
7The report they sent him read as follows: To King Darius: All peace.
7本上写着说：「愿 大流士 王诸事平安。
8Let it be known to the king that we went into the province of Judah, to the house of the great God. The people are rebuilding it with large stones, and placing timbers in the walls. This work is being carried out diligently and is prospering in their hands.
8王该知道，我们往 犹大 省去，到了至大 神的殿，这殿是用大石建造的。梁木插入墙内，工作甚速，他们手下亨通。
9So we questioned the elders and asked, “Who authorized you to rebuild this temple and restore this structure?”
9我们就问那些长老说：『谁降旨让你们建造这殿，修成这墙呢？』
10We also asked for their names, so that we could write down the names of their leaders for your information.
10又问他们的名字，要记录他们首领的名字，奏告于王。
11And this is the answer they returned: “We are servants of the God of heaven and earth, and we are rebuilding the temple that was built many years ago, which a great king of Israel built and completed.
11他们回答说：『我们是天地之 神的仆人，重建前多年所建造的殿，就是 以色列 的一位大君王建造修成的。
12But since our fathers angered the God of heaven, He delivered them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, the Chaldean who destroyed this temple and carried away the people to Babylon.
12只因我们列祖惹天上的 神发怒， 神把他们交在 迦勒底 人 巴比伦 王 尼布甲尼撒 的手中，他就拆毁这殿，又将百姓掳到 巴比伦 。
13In his first year, however, Cyrus king of Babylon issued a decree to rebuild this house of God.
13然而 巴比伦 王 塞鲁士 元年，他降旨允准建造 神的这殿。
14He also removed from the temple of Babylon the gold and silver articles belonging to the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar had taken and carried there from the temple in Jerusalem. King Cyrus gave these articles to a man named Sheshbazzar, whom he appointed governor
14神殿中的金、银器皿，就是 尼布甲尼撒 从 耶路撒冷 的殿中掠去带到 巴比伦 庙里的， 塞鲁士 王从 巴比伦 庙里取出来，交给派为省长的，名叫 设巴萨 ，
15and instructed, ‘Take these articles, put them in the temple in Jerusalem, and let the house of God be rebuilt on its original site.’
15对他说可以将这些器皿带去，放在 耶路撒冷 的殿中，在原处建造 神的殿。
16So this Sheshbazzar came and laid the foundation of the house of God in Jerusalem, and from that time until now it has been under construction, but it has not yet been completed.”
16于是这 设巴萨 来建立 耶路撒冷 神殿的根基。这殿从那时直到如今尚未造成。』
17Now, therefore, if it pleases the king, let a search be made of the royal archives in Babylon to see if King Cyrus did indeed issue a decree to rebuild the house of God in Jerusalem. Then let the king send us his decision in this matter.
17现在王若以为美，请察 巴比伦 王的府库，看 塞鲁士 王降旨允准在 耶路撒冷 建造 神的殿没有，王的心意如何？请降旨晓谕我们。」
