1Then Darius the king made a decree, and the house of the archives, where the treasures were laid up in Babylon, was searched.
1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；
2A scroll was found at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of Media, and in it this was written for a record:
2在 米底亞 省 亞馬他 城的宮內尋得一卷，其中記着說：
3In the first year of Cyrus the king, Cyrus the king made a decree: Concerning God’s house at Jerusalem, let the house be built, the place where they offer sacrifices, and let its foundations be strongly laid, with its height sixty cubits and its width sixty cubits;
3「 塞魯士 王元年，他降旨論到 耶路撒冷 上帝的殿，要建造這殿為獻祭之處，堅立殿的根基。殿高六十肘，寬六十肘，
4with three courses of great stones and a course of new timber. Let the expenses be given out of the king’s house.
4用三層大石頭，一層新木頭，經費要出於王庫；
5Also let the gold and silver vessels of God’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple which is at Jerusalem and brought to Babylon, be restored and brought again to the temple which is at Jerusalem, everything to its place. You shall put them in God’s house.
5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。」
6Now therefore, Tattenai, governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and your companions the Apharsachites, who are beyond the River, you must stay far from there.
6「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。
7Leave 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 in its place.
7不要攔阻上帝殿的工作，任憑 猶大 人的省長和 猶大 人的長老在原處建造上帝的這殿。
8Moreover I make a decree regarding what you shall do for these elders of the Jews for the building of this house of God: that of the king’s goods, even of the tribute beyond the River, expenses must be given with all diligence to these men, that they not be hindered.
8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。
9That which they have need of, including young bulls, rams, and lambs, for burnt offerings to the God of heaven; also wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the word of the priests who are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail,
9他們與天上的上帝獻燔祭所需用的公牛犢、公綿羊、綿羊羔，並所用的麥子、鹽、酒、油，都要照 耶路撒冷 祭司的話，每日供給他們，不得有誤；
10that they may offer sacrifices of pleasant aroma to the God of heaven, and pray for the life of the king and of his sons.
10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。
11I have also made a decree that whoever alters this message, let a beam be pulled out from his house, and let him be lifted up and fastened on it; and let his house be made a dunghill for this.
11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。
12May the God who has caused his name to dwell there overthrow all kings and peoples who stretch out their hand to alter this, to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Darius have made a decree. Let it be done with all diligence.
12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。」
13Then Tattenai, the governor beyond the River, Shetharbozenai, and their companions did accordingly with all diligence, because Darius the king had sent a decree.
13於是， 河西 總督 達乃 和 示他‧波斯乃 ，並他們的同黨，因 大流士 王所發的命令，就急速遵行。
14The elders of the Jews built and prospered, through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. They built and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the decree of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia.
14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。
15This house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
15大流士 王第六年，亞達月初三日，這殿修成了。
16The children of Israel, the priests, the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy.
16以色列 的祭司和 利未 人，並其餘被擄歸回的人都歡歡喜喜地行奉獻上帝殿的禮。
17They offered at the dedication of this house of God one hundred bulls, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs; and for a sin offering for all Israel, twelve male goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel.
17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；
18They set the priests in their divisions and the Levites in their courses, for the service of God which is at Jerusalem, as it is written in the book of Moses.
18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。
19The children of the captivity kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month.
19正月十四日，被擄歸回的人守逾越節。
20Because the priests and the Levites had purified themselves together, all of them were pure. They killed the Passover for all the children of the captivity, for their brothers the priests, and for themselves.
20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 。
21The children of Israel who had returned out of the captivity, and all who had separated themselves to them from the filthiness of the nations of the land to seek the LORD, the God of Israel, ate,
21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 ，
22and kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy; because the LORD had made them joyful, and had turned the heart of the king of Assyria to them, to strengthen their hands in the work of God, the God of Israel’s house.
22歡歡喜喜地守除酵節七日；因為耶和華使他們歡喜，又使 亞述 王的心轉向他們，堅固他們的手，作 以色列 上帝殿的工程。
