2 Then they came to Zerubbabel, and to the chief of the fathers, and said unto them, Let us build with you: for we seek your God, as ye do; and we do sacrifice unto him since the days of Esarhaddonking of Assur, which brought us up hither.
2 Then they came to Zerubbabel and to the heads of families, and said to them, Let us take part in the building with you; for we are servants of your God, even as you are; and we have been making offerings to him from the days of Esar-haddon, king of Assyria, who put us here.

3 But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua, and the rest of the chief of the fathers of Israel, said unto them, Ye have nothing to do with us to build an house unto our God; but we ourselves together will build unto the LORDGod of Israel, as kingCyrus the king of Persia hath commanded us.
3 But Zerubbabel and Jeshua and the rest of the heads of families in Israel said to them, You have no part with us in the building of a house for our God; we ourselves will do the work together for the Lord, the God of Israel, as Cyrus, king of Persia, has given us orders.
3 스룹바벨과 예수아와 기타 이스라엘 족장들이 이르되 우리 하나님의 전을 건축하는데 너희는 우리와 상관이 없느니라 바사 왕 고레스가 우리에게 명하신대로 우리가 이스라엘 하나님 여호와를 위하여 홀로 건축하리라 하였더니

12 Be itknown unto the king, that the Jewswhich came upfromthee to us are come unto Jerusalem, building the rebellious and the badcity, and have set up the wallsthereof, and joined the foundations.
12 We give news to the king that the Jews who came from you have come to us at Jerusalem; they are building up again that uncontrolled and evil town; the walls are complete and they are joining up the bases.
12 왕에게 고하나이다 왕에게서 올라온 유다 사람들이 우리의 곳 예루살렘에 이르러 이 패역하고 악한 성읍을 건축하는데 이미 그 지대를 수축하고 성곽을 건축하오니
13 Be it knownㆍnow unto the king, that, ifthiscity be builded, and the walls set upagain, then will they notpaytoll, tribute, and custom, and so thou shalt endamage the revenue of the kings.
13 The king may be certain that when the building of this town and its walls is complete, they will give no tax or payment in goods or forced payments, and in the end it will be a cause of loss to the kings.
13 이제 왕은 아시옵소서 만일 이 성읍을 건축하며 그 성곽을 마치면 저 무리가 다시는 조공과 잡세와 부세를 바치지 아니하리니 필경 왕들에게 손해가 되리이다
14Nowbecausewehavemaintenanceㆍ from the king'spalace, and it was notmeet for us to see the king'sdishonour, thereforehave we sent and certified the king;

15 So that search may be made in the book of the records of your fathers: and you will see in the book of the records that this town has been uncontrolled, and a cause of trouble to kings and countries, and that there were outbursts against authority there in the past: for which reason the town was made waste.
15 왕은 열조의 사기를 살피시면 그 사기에서 이 성읍은 패역한 성읍이라 예로부터 그 중에서 항상 반역하는 일을 행하여 열왕과 각 도에 손해가 된 것을 보시고 아실찌라 이 성읍이 훼파됨도 이 까닭이니이다

16 We give you word, that if the building of this town and its walls is made complete, there will be an end of your power in the country across the river.

19 And I gave orders for a search to be made, and it is certain that in the past this town has made trouble for kings, and that outbursts against authority have taken place there.
19 명하여 살펴보니 과연 이 성읍이 예로부터 열왕을 거역하며 그 중에서 항상 패역하고 모반하는 일을 행하였으며
20 There have beenmightykings also overJerusalem, which have ruled over allcountriesbeyond the river; and toll, tribute, and custom, was paid unto them.
20 Further, there have been great kings in Jerusalem, ruling over all the country across the river, to whom they gave taxes and payments in goods and forced payments.
20 옛적에는 예루살렘을 주재하는 큰 군왕이 있어서 강 서편 모든 땅도 주재하매 조공과 잡세와 부세를 저에게 다 바쳤도다

21 Give an order now, that these men are to do nothing more, and that the building of the town is to be stopped, till I give an order.
21 이제 너희는 명을 전하여 그 사람들로 역사를 그치게 하여 그 성을 건축지 못하게 하고 내가 다시 조서 내리기를 기다리라
22 Take heedㆍ now that ye fail not to doㆍthis: why should damagegrow to the hurt of the kings?
22 Be certain to do this with all care: do not let trouble be increased to the king's damage.
22 너희는 삼가서 이 일에 게으르지 말라 어찌하여 화를 더하여 왕들에게 손해가 되게 하랴 하였더라
23Nowwhenthecopy of kingArtaxerxesletterwasreadbeforeRehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went up in haste to Jerusalemunto the Jews, and made them to cease by force and power.
23 Then, after reading the king's letter, Rehum and Shimshai the scribe and their friends went quickly to Jerusalem, to the Jews, and had them stopped by force.
23 아닥사스다왕의 조서 초본이 르훔과 서기관 심새와 그 동료 앞에서 낭독되매 저희가 예루살렘으로 급히 가서 유다 사람들을 보고 권력으로 억제하여 그 역사를 그치게 하니
