8 Como também um carta para Asafe, guarda do jardim do rei, para que me dê madeira para consertar as portas da fortaleza do templo, para o muro da cidade, e para a casa onde entrarei.E o rei me concedeu, segundo a boa mão do SENHOR sobre mim.

9 Então vim aos governadores dalém do rio, e lhes dei as cartas do rei. E o rei enviou comigo capitães do exército e cavaleiros.
