Giguet⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Que le roi sache que les Juifs qui sont partis de son territoire pour cette terre sont arrivés à Jérusalem, ville rebelle et méchante, qu’ils la rebâtissent, qu’ils en ont restauré les remparts, et qu’ils les ont élevés au-dessus des fondations. ¹³ Que le roi sache bien qu’aussitôt leur ville reconstruite et leurs murs réparés, ils cesseront d’être tes tributaires, ils ne donneront rien; et ainsi, ils feront tort aux rois; ¹⁴ Et il ne nous est point possible de voir le roi outragé; c’est pourquoi nous avons envoyé un message pour instruire le roi, ¹⁵ Afin que l’on regarde dans le livre des archives de tes pères, où tu trouveras et tu apprendras que cette ville est une ville rebelle, qu’elle fait tort aux rois et aux royaumes, qu’il y a toujours eu chez elle des esclaves fugitifs, et que c’est pour cela qu’elle a été dépeuplée. ¹⁶ Nous déclarons donc au roi que, si cette ville est rebâtie, si ses remparts sont relevés, il n’y aura plus de paix pour toi.

DarbyFR⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Que le roi sache que les Juifs qui sont montés de chez toi vers nous et sont venus à Jérusalem, bâtissent la ville rebelle et méchante, et que les murailles s'achèvent, et qu'ils restaurent les fondements. ¹³ Que le roi sache donc que si cette ville est bâtie et que ses murailles s'achèvent, ils ne payeront ni tribut, ni impôt, ni péage, et, plus tard, cela portera préjudice aux rois. ¹⁴ Or comme nous mangeons le sel du palais, et qu'il n'était pas convenable pour nous de voir qu'on faisait tort au roi, à cause de cela nous avons envoyé et nous avons informé le roi, ¹⁵ afin qu'on cherche dans le livre des annales de tes pères: et tu trouveras dans le livre des annales et tu sauras que cette ville est une ville rebelle, et qu'elle a porté préjudice aux rois et aux provinces, et que, dès les jours anciens, on y a fait des séditions; c'est pourquoi cette ville a été détruite. ¹⁶ Nous faisons savoir au roi que cette ville est rebâtie et que ses murailles s'achèvent, à cause de cela, tu n'auras plus de possession de ce côté du fleuve.

Indonesian⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹² Kiranya Baginda maklum, bahwa orang Yahudi yang telah meninggalkan wilayah-wilayah lain dalam kerajaan Baginda, kini menetap di Yerusalem dan sedang membangun kembali kota yang jahat dan suka memberontak itu. Mereka sudah mulai mendirikan lagi tembok-temboknya dan tak lama lagi akan menyelesaikan pekerjaan itu. ¹³ Jika kota itu berhasil dibangun kembali dan tembok-temboknya selesai didirikan, penduduknya tidak akan mau lagi membayar pajak, lalu pendapatan kerajaan akan berkurang. ¹⁴ Kami sudah berhutang budi kepada Baginda dan tidak ingin melihat Baginda dirugikan. Karena itu kami mengusulkan, ¹⁵ agar Baginda menyuruh meneliti arsip para leluhur Baginda. Dari isinya Baginda akan mengetahui bahwa kota Yerusalem memang suka memberontak dan sejak dahulu selalu merugikan para raja dan penguasa provinsi. Penduduknya selalu susah dipimpin. Itu sebabnya kota itu telah dihancurkan. ¹⁶ Jadi, kami yakin, bahwa apabila kota itu dibangun kembali dan tembok-temboknya didirikan, Baginda tidak akan dapat lagi menguasai provinsi Efrat Barat ini."
