DARYAVESH SETS A DECREE
Then Daryavesh the sovereign sets a decree and they search the house of the scrolls, where the treasures were deposited in Babel: 2 and in the palace at Ach Metha in the jurisdiction of the Maday they find one roll, and in the middle, a record inscribed thus: 3 In the first year of Koresh the sovereign Koresh the sovereign set a decree concerning the house of Elah at Yeru Shalem, Build the house - a place to sacrifice sacrifices and erect the foundations thereof - its height, sixty cubits and its width, sixty cubits: 4 with three layers of round stones and a row of new timber: and give the expenses from the house of the sovereign: 5 and also restore the gold and silver vessels of the house of Elah which Nebukadnets Tsar removed from the manse at Yeru Shalem and brought to Babel; and return to their place in the manse at Yeru Shalem; and deposit them in the house of Elah. 6 Now, Tattenay governor beyond the river, Shethar Bozenay and your colleagues the Apharsechiy beyond the river, be far from thence: 7 leave the service of this house of Elah: this is for the governor of the Yah Hudiym and the elders of the Yah Hudiym to build this house of Elah in his place. 8 And I set a decree of what to do to the elders of these Yah Hudiym for the building of this house of Elah: that of the holdings of the sovereign - of the tribute beyond the river, that expenses be given diligently to these men that they not cease: 9 and whatever they need - sons of bulls and rams and lambs for the holocausts of the Elah of the heavens - wheat, salt, fermentation and anointing oil according to the edict of the priests at Yeru Shalem; give them day by day with no error: 10 to oblate sacrifices of savours of rest to Elah of the heavens; and pray for the life of the sovereign and of his sons: 11 I set a decree, that any man who alters this decision, that timber be uprooted from his house and being lifted, be struck thereon; and his house be made cesspools for this. 12 And Elah, who tabernacles his name there, overthrows all sovereigns and people, who send their hand to alter and to despoil this house of Elah at Yeru Shalem. I Daryavesh set a decree! Service it diligently!
