5:2 Then Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, got up and made a start at building the house of God at Jerusalem: and the prophets of God were with them, helping them.
5:2 于是撒拉铁的儿子所罗巴伯，和约萨达的儿子耶书亚，都起来动手建造耶路撒冷神的殿，有神的先知在那里帮助他们。

5:4 Then they said these words to them: What are the names of the men who are at work on this building?
5:4 我们便告诉他们建造这殿的人叫什么名字。
5:5 But the eye of their God was on the chiefs of the Jews, and they did not make them give up working till the question had been put before Darius and an answer had come by letter about it.
5:5 神的眼目看顾犹大的长老，以致总督等没有叫他们停工，直到这事奏告大利乌得着他的回谕。

5:9 Then we said to the men responsible, who gave you authority for the building of this house and these walls?
5:9 我们就问那些长老说，谁降旨让你们建造这殿，修成这墙呢？
5:10 And we made request for their names, so that we might send you word, and give you the names of the men at the head of them.
5:10 又问他们的名字，要记录他们首领的名字，奏告于王。
5:11 And they made answer to us, saying, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth, and we are building the house which was put up in times long past and was designed and made complete by a great king of Israel.
5:11 他们回答说，我们是天地之神的仆人，重建前多年所建造的殿，就是以色列的一位大君王建造修成的。
5:12 But when the God of heaven was moved to wrath by our fathers, he gave them up into the hands of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, the Chaldaean, who sent destruction on this house and took the people away into Babylon.
5:12 只因我们列祖惹天上的神发怒，神把他们交在迦勒底人，巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒的手中，他就拆毁这殿，又将百姓掳到巴比伦。
5:13 But in the first year of Cyrus, king of Babylon, Cyrus the king gave an order for the building of this house of God;
5:13 然而巴比伦王古列元年，他降旨允准建造神的这殿。
5:14 And the gold and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took from the Temple which was in Jerusalem, and put into the house of his god in Babylon, these Cyrus the king took from the house of his god in Babylon, and gave to one named Sheshbazzar, whom he had made ruler;
5:14 神殿中的金，银器皿，就是尼布甲尼撒从耶路撒冷的殿中掠去，带到巴比伦庙里的，古列王从巴比伦庙里取出来，交给派为省长的，名叫设巴萨，
5:15 And he said to him, Go, take these vessels, and put them in the Temple in Jerusalem, and let the house of God be put up again in its place.
5:15 对他说可以将这些器皿带去，放在耶路撒冷的殿中，在原处建造神的殿。
5:16 Then this same Sheshbazzar came and put the house of God in Jerusalem on its bases: and from that time till now the building has been going on, but it is still not complete.
5:16 于是这设巴萨来建立耶路撒冷神殿的根基。这殿从那时直到如今尚未造成。
5:17 So now, if it seems good to the king, let search be made in the king's store-house at Babylon, to see if it is true that an order was given by Cyrus the king for the building of this house of God at Jerusalem, and let the king send us word of his pleasure in connection with this business.
5:17 现在王若以为美，请察巴比伦王的府库，看古列王降旨允准在耶路撒冷建造神的殿没有，王的心意如何。请降旨晓谕我们。
