Ezra 5:6–10: Tattenai, the governor beyond the River, and Shetharbozenai, and his companions the Apharsachites who were beyond the River, send a letter to Darius the king, in which was written: “To Darius the king, all peace. Be it known to the king that we went into the province of Judah, to the house of the great God, which is being built with great stones and timber is laid in the walls. This work goes on with diligence and prospers in their hands. Then we asked those elders, and said to them thus, ‘Who gave you a decree to build this house, and to finish this wall?’ We asked them their names also, to inform you that we might write the names of the men who were at their head.” The letter goes on at 5:11–17. The Korean Revised Version reads 그 동료 (the companions) where WEB reads “his companions” (5:6).
