Ezra-Nehemiah (2 Esdras) 5:9

⁷They sent an account to him, and thus it was written in it: All peace to King Darius.

⁸Be it known to the king, that we went into the land of Judea, to the house of the great God; and it is building with choice stones, and they are laying timbers in the walls, and that work is prospering, and goes on favorably in their hands.

— Ezra-Nehemiah (2 Esdras) 5:9 —

¹⁰And we asked them their names, in order to declare them to thee, so as to write to thee the names of their leading men.

¹¹And they answered us thus, saying, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth, and we are building the house which had been built many years before this, and a great king of Israel built it, and established it for them.
