Ezra 4:12-16

4:12

Be it
<01934> (8748)

known
<03046> (8752)

unto the king
<04430>_,

that the Jews
<03062>

which
<01768>

came up
<05559> (8760)

from
<04481>

thee
<03890>

to us
<05922>

are come
<0858> (8754)

unto Jerusalem
<03390>_,

building
<01124> (8750)

the rebellious
<04779>

and the bad
<0873>

city
<07149>_,

and have set up
<03635> (8806) (8675) <03635> (8720)

the walls
<07792>

[thereof], and joined
<02338> (8681)

the foundations
<0787>_.

{set up: or, finished} {joined: Chaldee, sewed together}

4:13

Be it known
<03046> (8752) <01934> (8748)

now
<03705>

unto the king
<04430>_,

that, if
<02006>

this
<01791>

city
<07149>

be builded
<01124> (8731)_,

and the walls
<07792>

set up
<03635> (8720)

[again, then] will they not
<03809>

pay
<05415> (8748)

toll
<04061>_,

tribute
<01093>_,

and custom
<01983>_,

and [so] thou shalt endamage
<05142> (8681)

the revenue
<0674>

of the kings
<04430>_.

{pay: Chaldee, give} {revenue: or, strength}

4:14

Now
<03705>

because
<06903> <03606>

we have
<01768>

maintenance
<04415> (8754) <04416>

from [the king's] palace
<01965>_,

and it was not
<03809>

meet
<0749> (8750)

for us to see
<02370> (8749)

the king's
<04430>

dishonour
<06173>_,

therefore
<05922> <01836>

have we sent
<07972> (8754)

and certified
<03046> (8684)

the king
<04430>_;

{we have...: Chaldee, we are salted with the salt of the palace}

4:15

That search
<01240> (8741)

may be made in the book
<05609>

of the records
<01799>

of thy fathers
<02>_:

so shalt thou find
<07912> (8681)

in the book
<05609>

of the records
<01799>_,

and know
<03046> (8748)

that this
<01791>

city
<07149>

[is] a rebellious
<04779>

city
<07149>_,

and hurtful
<05142> (8683)

unto kings
<04430>

and provinces
<04083>_,

and that they have moved
<05648> (8751)

sedition
<0849>

within the same
<01459>

of
<04481>

old
<05957>

time
<03118>_:

for
<05922>

which
<01836>

cause was this
<01791>

city
<07149>

destroyed
<02718> (8717)_.

{moved: Chaldee, made} {within...: Chaldee, in the midst thereof}

4:16

We
<0586>

certify
<03046> (8683)

the king
<04430>

that, if
<02006>

this
<01791>

city
<07149>

be builded
<01124> (8731)

[again], and the walls
<07792>

thereof set up
<03635> (8720)_,

by this
<01836>

means
<06903>

thou shalt have
<0383>

no
<03809>

portion
<02508>

on this side
<05675>

the river
<05103>_.
