12 Que le Dieu qui fait résider en ce lieu son nom renverse tout roi et tout peuple qui étendraient la main pour transgresser ma parole, pour détruire cette maison de Dieu à Jérusalem! Moi, Darius, j’ai donné cet ordre. Qu’il soit ponctuellement exécuté.

13 Thathnaï, gouverneur de ce côté du fleuve, Schethar-Boznaï, et leurs collègues, se conformèrent ponctuellement à cet ordre que leur envoya le roi Darius.

14 Et les anciens des Juifs bâtirent avec succès, selon les prophéties d’Aggée, le prophète, et de Zacharie, fils d’Iddo; ils bâtirent et achevèrent, d’après l’ordre du Dieu d’Israël, et d’après l’ordre de Cyrus, de Darius, et d’Artaxerxès, roi de Perse.

15 La maison fut achevée le troisième jour du mois d’Adar, dans la sixième année du règne du roi Darius.

16 Les enfants d’Israël, les sacrificateurs et les Lévites, et le reste des fils de la captivité, firent avec joie la dédicace de cette maison de Dieu.
