This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
6 Now in the second year of the reign of Dareyavesh (Darius), Hagay and Zekaryah (Zechariah) the son of[fn] Ido, the prophets, prophesied to the Yehudim (Jews) in Yehudah and Yerushalem (Jerusalem) in the name of the master, the god of Yisrael.[ref] 2 Then Zorobabel the son of Salathiail and Yeshua the son of Yotsadak stood up and began to build the house of the master at Yerushalem, the prophets of the master being with them and helping them.
3 At the same time Tatenay[fn] the governor of Aram (Syria) and Foinikai came to them, with Shetar-Bozenay[fn] and his companions, and said to them,[ref] 4 “By whose authority do you build this house and this roof, and perform all the other things? Who are the builders who do these things?” 5 Nevertheless, the elders of the Yehudim obtained favour, because the master had visited the captives; 6 and they were not hindered from building until such time as communication was made to Dareyavesh concerning them, and his answer received.
Ezr 4:24:
24 So there was a period when the rebuilding of the temple in Yerushalem stopped, and it remained paused until the second year of King Dareyavesh’s (Darius) reign in Paras (Persia).[ref]
5:1:
5 Then the prophet Hagay and Ido’s son Zekaryah (Zechariah)[ref] prophesied to the Yehudim (Jews) in Yerushalem (Jerusalem) and across Yehudah (Judah) in the name of Yisrael’s (Israel) god who they served.
Ezr 5:3:
3 At that time, Tatenay, the governor of the province west of the Perat (Euphrates), and Shetar-Bozenay, and their companions came to them and demanded, “Who gave you all permission to rebuild this temple?”
