May God, who has caused his Name to dwell there, overthrow any king or people who lifts a hand to change this decree or to destroy this temple in Jerusalem. I Darius have decreed it. Let it be carried out with diligence.

God has chosen to put his Name in the temple at Jerusalem. May he wipe out any king or nation that lifts a hand to change this order. May he also wipe out anyone who tries to destroy the temple in Jerusalem. That’s what I have ordered. I am King Darius. Make sure you carry out my order.

May the God who has caused his name to dwell there overthrow any king or people who shall put out a hand to alter this, or to destroy this house of God that is in Jerusalem. I Darius make a decree; let it be done with all diligence.”

對他說：「我聽了你的禱告和祈求。我已使你建的殿成為聖潔之地，讓我的名永在其中，我會一直眷顧這殿。

你們的上帝耶和華要在你們眾支派中選一個地方作祂的居所，你們要去那裡敬拜祂，

你們要把我吩咐你們獻的燔祭、各種牲祭、十一奉獻、舉祭和一切還願祭帶到你們的上帝耶和華選定的敬拜場所。

你們要為我築一座土壇，把你們的牛羊獻在壇上作燔祭和平安祭。凡是我使自己的名號被尊崇的地方，我會親臨那裡賜福給你們。

巴比倫城啊，你快要滅亡了，那向你以牙還牙為我們復仇的人有福了！那抓住你的嬰孩摔在石頭上的人有福了！

你們要在你們的上帝耶和華選定的敬拜場所，把牛羊作為逾越節的祭牲獻給祂。

不肯向你俯首稱臣的國家必滅亡，被徹底摧毀。

凡你的手能做的，都要盡力去做，因為在你要去的陰間沒有工作，沒有計劃，也沒有知識和智慧。

上帝啊，求你定他們的罪，讓他們作繭自縛。他們背叛你，罪惡深重，求你把他們趕走。

諭旨的抄本作為法令頒佈到各省，通知各族為那天做好準備。信差奉王的命令急忙上路，諭旨也在書珊城裡頒佈了。王和哈曼坐下飲酒，書珊城一片慌亂。

因為耶和華已經揀選了錫安，願意將錫安作為祂的居所。祂說：「這是我永遠的居所；我要住在這裡，因為我喜愛這地方。

我已選擇這殿，使之聖潔，永遠歸在我的名下，我的眼和我的心必常在那裡。

「因你曾殘暴地對待同胞兄弟雅各，你必蒙羞，永遭毀滅。

「看啊，我要使耶路撒冷成為令周圍萬民昏醉的酒杯。耶路撒冷被圍困時，猶大也必受困。到那天，當地上的列國聚集起來攻擊耶路撒冷的時候，我要使耶路撒冷成為一塊沉重的石頭。凡試圖舉起它的，必傷自己。到那天，我要使所有的戰馬驚恐，使馬上的騎士癲狂。我必看顧猶大家，使列邦的馬匹瞎眼。這是耶和華說的。

信差接到王的命令，急忙騎上王室快馬上路。在書珊城也頒佈了諭旨。

耶和華啊，你的手必尋索你的敵人，你用右手搜出所有恨你的人。你一出現，他們便像身在火爐中，你在烈怒中吞滅他們，你的烈火燒滅他們。你必從世上剷除他們的子孫，從人間滅絕他們的後裔。

於是，河西總督達乃、示他·波斯乃及其同僚都認真執行大流士王的諭旨。

眾天軍穿著潔白的細麻衣，騎著白馬跟隨祂。祂口中吐出一把利劍，可以攻擊列國。祂必用鐵杖統治他們，踩踏盛滿全能上帝之烈怒的榨酒池。祂的衣服和大腿上都寫著祂的名號：「萬王之王，萬主之主。」我又看見一位天使站在太陽裡，對空中飛翔的鳥大聲呼喚：「來吧！一起來參加上帝的盛宴，一同享用君王、將軍、勇士、馬匹、騎士、自由人、奴隸和尊卑老少的肉吧！」我看見那怪獸、地上的眾王及其軍隊聚集起來，要與白馬騎士和祂的軍隊作戰。後來，怪獸被俘虜了，在怪獸面前行奇蹟的假先知也一同被擒了。這假先知曾用奇蹟欺騙那些蓋了獸印、敬拜獸像的人。他和怪獸一同被活活地扔進硫磺火湖裡。怪獸的殘兵紛紛被白馬騎士口中的利劍所殺，飛鳥飽餐了他們的肉。

所以，像現在這種情形，我勸大家還是不要管他們，隨他們去吧。他們的計劃和行為如果是出於人意，終必失敗；但如果是出於上帝，你們不但無法阻止他們，恐怕反而是在抵擋上帝！」

他說：「主啊，你是誰？」那聲音說：「我就是你所迫害的耶穌。
