The adversaries of Judah and Benjamin ask to build with Zerubbabel, and Zerubbabel, Jeshua and the heads of fathers’ households answer
유다와 베냐민의 대적이 함께 건축하기를 청하고 스룹바벨과 예수아와 족장들이 대답함
Ezra 4:1–3: when the adversaries of Judah and Benjamin heard that the children of the captivity were building a temple to the LORD, the God of Israel, they come near to Zerubbabel, and to the heads of fathers’ households, and say 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.” But Zerubbabel, Jeshua, and the rest of the heads of fathers’ households of Israel say to them, “You have nothing to do with us in building a house to our God; but we ourselves together will build to the LORD, the God of Israel, as King Cyrus the king of Persia has commanded us.” The Korean Revised Version reads 하나님께 (to God) where WEB reads “to him” (4:2), and 홀로 건축하리라 (will build alone) where WEB reads “ourselves together will build” (4:3).
