אֵ֚ל מָֽאנַיָּ֔⁠א שֵׂ֚א אֵֽזֶל־אֲחֵ֣ת הִמּ֔וֹ בְּ⁠הֵיכְלָ֖⁠א דִּ֣י בִ⁠ירוּשְׁלֶ֑ם וּ⁠בֵ֥ית אֱלָהָ֖⁠א יִתְבְּנֵ֥א עַל־אַתְרֵֽ⁠הּ

(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said to=him/it these the,vessels take go put them in,the,temple that/who [is]_in,Jerusalem and,the_house_of the=god rebuilt on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in its_of,place )

This is a quotation within a quotation within a quotation. The book is quoting from the letter that Tattenai and his associates sent to King Darius. Within that letter, they are quoting what the Jewish elders told them in response to their question. And within that response, the elders are quoting what King Cyrus told Sheshbazzar to do. It may be helpful to your readers to indicate this by setting off this part of the verse within tertiary quotation marks or with whatever other punctuation or convention your language uses to indicate a quotation within a quotation within a quotation. Another option would be to present this as an indirect quotation, as in the UST.

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

וּ⁠בֵ֥ית אֱלָהָ֖⁠א יִתְבְּנֵ֥א עַל־אַתְרֵֽ⁠הּ

and,the_house_of the=god rebuilt on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in its_of,place

If it would be helpful in your language, you could say this with an active form, and you could say who did the action. Alternate translation: [I authorize you to rebuild the temple on its original site]
