Ezra 5:1-3
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Restoration of the Temple Resumed
5 [a]Now the prophets, Hag′gai and Zechari′ah the son of Iddo, prophesied to the Jews who were in Judah and Jerusalem, in the name of the God of Israel who was over them. 2 Then Zerub′babel the son of She-al′ti-el and Jeshua the son of Jo′zadak arose and began to rebuild the house of God which is in Jerusalem; and with them were the prophets of God, helping them.
3 At the same time Tat′tenai the governor of the province Beyond the River and She′thar-boz′enai and their associates came to them and spoke to them thus, “Who gave you a decree to build this house and to finish this structure?”

- 5.1 Building is resumed nearly twenty years later, and the temple is completed in four years (515 b.c.)—but it was a mere shadow of Solomon’s temple; cf. 3.12.

Arbetet på templet börjar på nytt
5 (A) Och profeten Haggai och Sakarja[a], Iddos son, profeterade för judarna i Juda och Jerusalem i Israels Guds namn som var över dem[b]. 2 Serubbabel, Shealtiels son, och Jeshua, Josadaks son, började då bygga på Guds hus i Jerusalem. Guds profeter var med dem och hjälpte dem.
3 Vid samma tid kom Tattenaj[c], som var ståthållare[d] i landet på andra sidan floden, och Shetar-Bosenaj och deras medbröder till dem och sade så till dem: ”Vem har befallt er att bygga detta hus och färdigställa denna byggnad?”
