三層光滑石塊，一層新木頭，所有費用由王庫支付。

你要把王和他顧問甘心獻的金銀帶去，奉獻給住在耶路撒冷之以色列的神；也要帶著你在巴比倫全省所得的金銀，連同人民和祭司甘心樂意獻給在耶路撒冷神的殿的禮物，使你可以用這些銀子審慎地購買公牛、公綿羊、綿羊羔，以及與祭牲同獻的素祭和奠祭，獻在耶路撒冷你們神的殿的祭壇上。剩餘的金銀，你和你的族人看怎麼辦好，就怎麼用；只要照著你們神的旨意去作就是了。至於交給你為你神殿中事奉用的器皿，你要放在耶路撒冷的神面前。如果你需要支付你神的殿其餘的費用，你可以從王的庫房裡支付。我亞達薛西王下令給在河西那邊所有的庫官：無論以斯拉祭司，這位精通天上神律法的經學家，向你們要求甚麼，你們都要審慎照辦。他可以要銀子三千四百公斤，麥子一百公斤，酒二千二百公升，油二千二百公升，鹽卻不受限制。

當亞達薛西王諭旨的副本在利宏和祕書伸帥，以及他們的同僚面前宣讀出來以後，他們就急忙去耶路撒冷到猶大人那裡，用武力強迫他們停工。

萬軍之耶和華說：“銀子是我的，金子也是我的。”

從前大能的君王統治耶路撒冷，治理河西那邊的全地，接受他們繳稅、進貢和納糧。現在你們要下令叫這些人停工，不得重建這城，等候我的諭令。

因為你在耶路撒冷的聖殿，眾王都把禮物帶來獻給你。求你斥責蘆葦中的野獸、成群的公牛和萬民中的牛犢，並且把貪愛銀塊的人踐踏在腳下；求你趕散那些喜愛戰爭的民族。有使節從埃及出來，古實人趕快向神呈獻禮物。

我們告知王，如果這城建成，牆垣築好，河西那邊的地方就不再是王的了。”
