Ezra 6:14-16

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁴ So the elders of the Judeans continued to build and prosper throughout the prophetic ministry of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah grandson of Iddo. They finished building the temple by the decree of the God of Israel and by the decree of Cyrus, Darius, and King Artaxerxes of Persia. ¹⁵ This house was finished on the third day of the month of Adar, during the sixth year^[a] of the reign of King Darius.

¹⁶ The Israelites—the priests, the Levites, and the rest of the exiles—dedicated this house of God with joy.
