Ezra 6:11 in Context — Ezra 6
9 E o que for necessário, como bezerros, carneiros e cordeiros, para holocaustos ao Deus do céu, trigo, sal, vinho e azeite, conforme o que os sacerdotes que estão em Jerusalém disserem, seja lhes dado a cada um sem falta.
10 Para que ofereçam sacrifícios de aroma suave ao ao Deus dos céus, e orem pela vida do rei e de seus filhos.
11 Também é dada por mim ordem, que qualquer um que mudar este decreto, um madeiro de sua casa seja derrubado, levantado, e nele seja empalado; e sua casa se torne um amontoado por causa disso.
12 E o Deus que fez habitar ali seu nome, derrube a todo rei e povo que estenderem sua mão para mudar ou destruir esta casa de Deus, que está em Jerusalém. Eu, Dario, fiz o decreto; apressadamente se cumpra.
13 Então Tatenai, o governador dalém do rio, e Setar-Bozenai, e seus companheiros, assim fizeram apressadamente, conforme o que o rei Dario havia mandado.
