¹⁴ So the elders of the Jews built and prospered, through the prophesying of the prophet Haggai and Zechariah son of Iddo. They finished their building by command of the God of Israel and by decree of Cyrus, Darius, and King Artaxerxes of Persia,^{(A) 15} and this house was finished on the third day of the month of Adar, in the sixth year of the reign of King Darius.
