6 Traslado de la carta que Tatnai, capitán de la parte allá del río, y Sethar-boznai, y sus compañeros los Apharsachêos, que estaban á la parte allá del río, enviaron al rey Darío.
7 Enviáronle carta, y de esta manera estaba escrito en ella. Al rey Darío toda paz.
8 Sea notorio al rey, que fuimos á la provincia de Judea, á la casa del gran Dios, la cual se edifica de piedra de mármol; y los maderos son puestos en las paredes, y la obra se hace apriesa, y prospera en sus manos.
9 Entonces preguntamos á los ancianos, diciéndoles así: ¿Quién os dió mandamiento para edificar esta casa, y para restablecer estos muros?
10 Y también les preguntamos sus nombres para hacértelo saber, para escribir[te] los nombres de los varones que estaban por cabezas de ellos.
