they came to Zerubbabel and to the heads of the families and said,“ Let us help you build because, like you, we seek your God and have been sacrificing to him since the time of Esarhaddon king of Assyria, who brought us here.”

Then those enemies came to Zerubbabel. The family leaders of Israel were with him. The enemies said,“ We want to help you build. We’re just like you. We worship your God. We offer sacrifices to him. We’ve been doing that ever since the time of Esarhaddon. He was king of Assyria. He brought our people here.”

they approached Zerubbabel and the heads of fathers’ houses and said to them,“ Let us build with you, for we worship your God as you do, and we have been sacrificing to him ever since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assyria who brought us here.”

So they approached Zerubbabel and the other leaders and said,“ Let us build with you, for we worship your God just as you do. We have sacrificed to him ever since King Esarhaddon of Assyria brought us here.”

they approached Zerubbabel and the family heads and said to them,“ Let us build with you, for we also worship your God and have been sacrificing to him since the time King Esar-haddon of Assyria brought us here.”

they approached Zerubbabel and the heads of fathers’ households, and said to them,“ Let us build with you, for like you, we seek your God; and we have been sacrificing to Him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assyria, who brought us up here.”

they came to Zerubbabel and the heads of the fathers’ houses, and said to them,“ Let us build with you, for we seek your God as you do; and we have sacrificed to Him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assyria, who brought us here.”

then they drew near to Zerubbabel, and to the heads of fathers’ houses, and said unto them, Let us build with you; for we seek your God, as ye do; and we sacrifice unto him since the days of Esar- haddon king of Assyria, who brought us up hither.

they approached Zerubbabel and the leaders of the families and said to them,“ Let us build with you, for we also worship your God and have been sacrificing to Him since the time King Esar-haddon of Assyria brought us here.”

Then they came to Zerubbabel, and to the chief of the fathers, and said unto them, Let us build with you: for we seek your God, as ye[ do]; and we do sacrifice unto him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assur, which brought us up hither.

they came to Zerubbabel and the leaders and said to them,“ Let us help you build, for like you we seek your God and we have been sacrificing to him from the time of King Esarhaddon of Assyria, who brought us here.”

they came near to Zerubbabel, and to the heads of fathers’ households, and said to them,“ Let us build with you; for we seek your God, as you do; and we have been sacrificing to him since the days of Esar Haddon king of Assyria, who brought us up here.”

一日，他正在他的神亚斯洛的庙中叩拜的时候，亚得米勒和沙利色用刀刺杀了他，然后逃到亚拉腊地。他的儿子以撒哈顿接续他作王。

亚述王从巴比伦、古他、亚瓦、哈马和西法瓦音带人来，安置在撒玛利亚的城市，代替以色列人。他们就得了撒玛利亚作产业，住在它的城市中。

这样，这些民族一方面敬畏耶和华；另一方面又继续服事他们的偶像。他们的子子孙孙继续照着他们的祖先所行的去行，直到今日。

于是亚述王下令：“我从那里掳来的祭司中，要叫一个回到那里去。他要去住在那里，教导他们当地的神的规矩。”于是从撒玛利亚被掳来的祭司中，有一个回去，住在伯特利，教导他们怎样敬畏耶和华。但各族的人仍然制造自己的神像，安放在撒玛利亚人所造各邱坛的庙中；各族人在他们所居住的城市都这样作。巴比伦人做了疏割．比讷像，古他人做了匿甲像，哈马人做了亚示玛像，亚瓦人做了匿哈和他珥他像，西法瓦音人用火焚烧自己的儿女，献给西法瓦音的神亚得米勒和亚拿米勒。他们也惧怕耶和华，所以从他们中间选立邱坛的祭司，替他们在邱坛的庙里献祭。他们既惧怕耶和华，又服事他们的神；从哪个民族掳来的，就按照哪个民族的习俗服事他们的神。

他们讥笑人，怀着恶意说欺压人的话，他们说话自高。

他从那地出来，到亚述去，建造了尼尼微、利河伯城、迦拉，

约萨达的儿子耶书亚和作祭司的亲族，撒拉铁的儿子所罗巴伯和他的兄弟都起来，建筑以色列神的祭坛，为要照着神人摩西律法书上所写的，在祭坛上献燔祭。

很多年老的祭司、利未人和族长，曾经见过先前的殿，眼见这殿的根基再次奠立，就放声大哭，但也有许多人高声欢呼，

嘴唇火热，心却奸恶，就像包上银渣的瓦器。憎恶人的用话语掩饰自己，心里却存着诡诈。他的话语虽然动听，你不可信他，因为他心里有七样可厌恶的事。他的怨恨虽然以诡诈掩饰，但他的邪恶必在大会中显露出来。

从前阎儡和阎悖怎样反对摩西，这些人也怎样反对真理。他们的心思败坏，信仰也经不起考验。

于是，犹大和便雅悯的族长、祭司、利未人和所有被神激动了心灵的人，都起来要上去，重建在耶路撒冷耶和华的殿。

这样的人是假使徒，是诡诈的工人，装成基督的使徒。这并不希奇，因为撒但自己也装作光明的天使，所以，撒但的仆役装成公义的仆役，也不必大惊小怪。他们的结局必按他们所作的而定。

从前在人民中，曾有假先知出来；照样，将来在你们中间，也必有假教师出现。他们偷偷把使人灭亡的异端引进来，甚至否认那曾经买赎他们的主，迅速地自取灭亡。许多人会随从他们的淫行，因此真理的道，就因他们的缘故被人毁谤。

他们与所罗巴伯、耶书亚、尼希米、西莱雅、利来雅、末底改、必珊、米斯拔、比革瓦伊、利宏和巴拿一同回去。以色列民的男丁数目记在下面：

亚述不能救我们，我们必不再骑马；我们亲手所做的，我们必不再称为‘我们的神’；因为在你那里，孤儿才得着怜悯。”

这是因为有些混进来的假弟兄，暗暗地来侦查我们在基督耶稣里享有的自由，为的是要辖制我们。

亚述王西拿基立就拔营离去，返回本地，住在尼尼微。
