- 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。
- 不要攔阻 神殿的工作、任憑猶大人的省長、和猶大人的長老在原處建造 神的這殿。
- 我又降旨、吩咐你們向猶大人的長老為建造 神的殿、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。
- 他們與天上的 神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.
- 好叫他們獻馨香的祭給天上的 神、又為王、和王眾子的壽命祈禱。

- Now then, Tattenai, governor of Trans-Euphrates, and Shethar-Bozenai and you, their fellow officials of that province, stay away from there.
- Do not interfere with the work on this temple of God. Let the governor of the Jews and the Jewish elders rebuild this house of God on its site.
- Moreover, I hereby decree what you are to do for these elders of the Jews in the construction of this house of God: The expenses of these men are to be fully paid out of the royal treasury, from the revenues of Trans-Euphrates, so that the work will not stop.
- Whatever is needed--young bulls, rams, male lambs for burnt offerings to the God of heaven, and wheat, salt, wine and oil, as requested by the priests in Jerusalem--must be given them daily without fail,
- so that they may offer sacrifices pleasing to the God of heaven and pray for the well-being of the king and his sons.
