12 And may the God who causes His aname to dwell there destroy any king or people who put their hand to alter it, or to destroy this1 house of God which is in Jerusalem. I Darius issue a decree; let it be done diligently.
The Temple Completed and Dedicated

14 aSo the elders of the Jews built, and they prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they built and finished it, according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the1 command of bCyrus, cDarius, and dArtaxerxes king of Persia.
