- And I, even I Artaxerxes the king, do make a decree to all the treasurers which are beyond the river, that whatsoever Ezra the priest, the scribe of the law of the God of heaven, shall require of you, it be done speedily,
- Unto an hundred talents of silver, and to an hundred measures of wheat, and to an hundred baths of wine, and to an hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing how much.
- Whatsoever is commanded by the God of heaven, let it be diligently done for the house of the God of heaven: for why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons?
- Also we certify you, that touching any of the priests and Levites, singers, porters, Nethinims, or ministers of this house of God, it shall not be lawful to impose toll, tribute, or custom, upon them.
- And thou, Ezra, after the wisdom of thy God, that is in thine hand, set magistrates and judges, which may judge all the people that are beyond the river, all such as know the laws of thy God; and teach ye them that know them not.

- 我亚达薛西王又降旨与河西的一切库官,说,通达天上神律法的文士祭司以斯拉,无论向你们要什么,你们要速速地备办,
- 就是银子直到一百他连得,麦子一百柯珥,酒一百吧特,油一百吧特,盐不计其数,也要给他。
- 凡天上之神所吩咐的,当为天上神的殿详细办理。为何使忿怒临到王和王众子的国呢。
- 我又晓谕你们,至于祭司,利未人,歌唱的,守门的,和尼提宁,并在神殿当差的人,不可叫他们进贡,交课,纳税。
- 以斯拉阿,要照着你神赐你的智慧,将所有明白你神律法的人立为士师,审判官,治理河西的百姓,使他们教训一切不明白神律法的人。
