The Temple Completed and Dedicated
13 Then (A)Tattenai, the governor of the province beyond the Euphrates River, Shethar-bozenai, and their colleagues carried out the decree with all diligence, just as King Darius had [a]ordered. 14 And (B)the elders of the Jews [b]were successful in building through the prophecy of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And [c]they finished building following the command of the God of Israel and the decree (C)of Cyrus, (D)Darius, and (E)Artaxerxes king of Persia. 15 Now this [d]temple was completed [e]on the third day of the (F)month Adar; it was the sixth year of the reign of King Darius.
