Ezra 5:4-6
New King James Version
4 (A)Then, accordingly, we told them the names of the men who were constructing this building. 5 But (B)the eye of their God was upon the elders of the Jews, so that they could not make them cease till a report could go to Darius. Then a (C)written answer was returned concerning this matter. 6 This is a copy of the letter that Tattenai sent:
The governor of the region beyond the River, and Shethar-Boznai, (D)and his companions, the Persians who were in the region beyond the River, to Darius the king.
Ezra 5:4-6
New International Version
4 They[a] also asked, “What are the names of those who are constructing this building?” 5 But the eye of their God(A) was watching over the elders of the Jews, and they were not stopped until a report could go to Darius and his written reply be received.
6 This is a copy of the letter that Tattenai, governor of Trans-Euphrates, and Shethar-Bozenai and their associates, the officials of Trans-Euphrates, sent to King Darius.
