Ezra:4:4-16

strkjv@Ezra:4:4 @ Then the people of the land weakened the hands of the people of Judah, and troubled them in building,

strkjv@Ezra:4:5 @ And hired counsellors against them, to frustrate their purpose, all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of Persia.

strkjv@Ezra:4:6 @ And in the reign of Ahasuerus, in the beginning of his reign, wrote they unto him an accusation against the inhabitants of Judah and Jerusalem.

strkjv@Ezra:4:7 @ And in the days of Artaxerxes wrote Bishlam, Mithredath, Tabeel tab@, and the rest of their companions, unto Artaxerxes king of Persia; and the writing of the letter was written in the Syrian tongue, and interpreted in the Syrian tongue.

strkjv@Ezra:4:8 @ Rehum the chancellor H2942and Shimshai the scribe wrote k@ a letter against Jerusalem Y@ruwshalem (Chald) to Artaxerxes the king in this sort:

strkjv@Ezra:4:9 @ Then wrote Rehum the chancellor H2942 t@, and Shimshai the scribe, and the rest of their companions; the Dinaites, the Apharsathchites Apharc@, the Tarpelites, the Apharsites Aphar@, the Archevites Ark@, the Babylonians, the Susanchites, the Dehavites, and the Elamites,

strkjv@Ezra:4:10 @ And the rest of the nations whom the great and noble Asnappar brought over g@, and set y@ in the cities of Samaria, and the rest that are on this side the river, and at such a time k@.

strkjv@Ezra:4:11 @ This is the copy of the letter that they sent sh@ unto him, even unto Artaxerxes the king; Thy servants the men on this side the river, and at such a time k@.

strkjv@Ezra:4:12 @ Be it known y@ unto the king, that the Jews which came up c@ from thee to us are come unto Jerusalem Y@ruwshalem (Chald), building b@ the rebellious and the bad city, and have set up k@ k@ the walls thereof, and joined the foundations.

strkjv@Ezra:4:13 @ Be it known y@ now unto the king, that, if this city be builded b@, and the walls set up k@ again, then will they not pay n@ toll, tribute, and custom, and so thou shalt endamage n@ the revenue of the kings.

strkjv@Ezra:4:14 @ Now because q@ we have maintenance m@ from the kings palace, and it was not meet for us to see the kings dishonour, therefore H1836have we sent sh@ and certified y@ the king;

strkjv@Ezra:4:15 @ That search b@ may be made in the book of the records of thy fathers: so shalt thou find sh@ in the book of the records, and know y@ that this city is a rebellious city, and hurtful n@ unto kings and provinces, and that they have moved sedition within the same of old time: for which cause was this city destroyed.

strkjv@Ezra:4:16 @ We certify y@ the king that, if this city be builded b@ again, and the walls thereof set up k@, by this means thou shalt have no portion on this side the river.
