1Then Darius the king made a decree, and search was made in the house of the archives, where the treasures were laid up in Babylon.
2There was found at Achmetha, in the palace that is in the province of Media, a scroll, and therein was thus written for a record:
3In the first year of Cyrus the king, Cyrus the king made a decree: Concerning God’s house at Jerusalem, let the house be built, the place where they offer sacrifices, and let its foundations be strongly laid; its height sixty cubits, and its breadth sixty cubits;
4with three courses of great stones, and a course of new timber: and let the expenses be given out of the king’s house.
5Also let the gold and silver vessels of God’s house, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple which is at Jerusalem, and brought to Babylon, be restored, and brought again to the temple which is at Jerusalem, everyone to its place; and you shall put them in God’s house.
