12 H1934 [H8748] let it be H3046 [H8752] known H4430 to the king H3062 , that the Jews H1768 who H5559 [H8760] came H4481 from H3890 thee H5922 to us H858 [H8754] are come H3390 to Jerusalem H1124 [H8750] , building H4779 the rebellious H873 and the evil H7149 city H3635 H3635 [H8806] , and have set up H7792 the walls H2338 [H8681] , and joined H787 the foundations.

13 H3046 H1934 [H8752] Be it known H3705 now H4430 to the king H2006 , that, if H1791 this H7149 city H1124 [H8731] shall be built H7792 , and the walls H3635 [H8720] set up H3809 again, then they will not H5415 [H8748] pay H4061 toll H1093 , tribute H1983 , and custom H5142 [H8681] , and so thou shalt diminish H674 the revenue H4430 of the kings.

14 H3705 Now H6903 H3606 because H1768 we have H4415 H4416 [H8754] maintenance H1965 from the king's palace H3809 , and it was not H749 [H8750] good H2370 [H8749] for us to see H4430 the king's H6173 dishonour H5922 H1836 , therefore H7972 [H8754] have we sent H3046 [H8684] and informed H4430 the king;

15 H1240 [H8741] That search H5609 may be made in the book H1799 of the records H2 of thy fathers H7912 [H8681] : so shalt thou find H5609 in the book H1799 of the records H3046 [H8748] , and know H1791 that this H7149 city H4779 is a rebellious H7149 city H5142 [H8683] , and hurtful H4430 to kings H4083 and provinces H5648 [H8751] , and that they have moved H849 sedition H1459 within the same H4481 from of H5957 H3118 old H5922 : for H1836 which H1791 cause was this H7149 city H2718 [H8717] destroyed.

16 H586 We H3046 [H8683] inform H4430 the king H2006 that, if H1791 this H7149 city H1124 [H8731] shall be built H7792 again, and the walls H3635 [H8720] set up H1836 , by this H6903 means H383 thou shalt have H3809 no H2508 portion H5675 on this side H5103 of the river.
