Ezra - ch 4 v 21 - 24
- `Now, make ye a decree to cause these men to cease, and this city is not builded, till by me a decree is made.
- And beware ye of negligence in doing this; why doth the hurt become great to the loss of the kings?'
- Then from the time that a copy of the letter of king Artaxerxes is read before Rehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they have gone in haste to Jerusalem, unto the Jews, and caused them to cease by force and strength;
- then ceased the service of the house of God that `is' in Jerusalem, and it ceased till the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.
