Then the prophets Haggai and Iddo’s grandson, Zechariah, spoke messages from God. They served Israel’s God, and they spoke with his authority. They told God’s message to the Jews who lived in Jerusalem and in other parts of Judea. Then Shealtiel’s son, Zerubbabel, and Jozadak’s son, Jeshua, started again to build God’s temple in Jerusalem. God’s prophets were there to help them. But God was watching over the Jewish leaders. Nobody was able to stop them building at that time. The city’s officers had to wait until they could send a letter to King Darius. They waited for him to reply.
Ezra 5:1-2, 5
那時，先知哈該和易多的孫子撒迦利亞奉以色列上帝的名向猶大和耶路撒冷的猶大人說勸勉的話。 於是撒拉鐵的兒子所羅巴伯和約薩達的兒子耶書亞都起來動手建造耶路撒冷上帝的殿，有上帝的先知在那裏幫助他們。 上帝的眼目看顧猶大的長老，以致總督等沒有叫他們停工，直到這事奏告大流士，得着他的回諭。 以斯拉記 5:1-2, 5
