But Zerubbabel, and Jeshua, and the rest of the heads of fathers' 'houses' of Israel, said unto them, Ye have nothing to do with us in building a house unto our God; but we ourselves together will build unto Jehovah, the God of Israel, as king Cyrus the king of Persia hath commanded us.
And Zorobabel, and Josue, and þe oþere princes of þe fadris of Israel, seiden to hem, It is not to vs and to you, þat we bilde an hows to oure God; but we vs silf aloone schulen bilde to oure Lord God, as Cirus, þe kyng of Persis, comaundide to vs.
