Then the king, with the queen sitting beside him, asked me,“ How long will your journey take, and when will you get back?” It pleased the king to send me; so I set a time.

The queen was sitting beside the king. He turned and asked me,“ How long will your journey take? When will you get back?” It pleased the king to send me. So I chose a certain time.

當這一切事發生的時候，我不在耶路撒冷，因為巴比倫王亞達薛西三十二年，我回到王那裏。過了多日，我又向王告假。

自從我奉派作猶大地省長的那日，就是從亞達薛西王二十年直到三十二年，共十二年之久，我與我弟兄都沒有吃省長的俸祿。

王對我說：「你想求甚麼？」於是我向天上的神祈禱。

他們尚未求告，我就應允；正說話的時候，我就垂聽。

他們必修造久已荒涼的廢墟，建立先前淒涼之處，重修歷代荒涼之城。

唉，主啊，求你側耳聽你僕人的祈禱，聽喜愛敬畏你名眾僕人的祈禱，使你僕人今日亨通，在這人面前蒙恩。」我是王的酒政。

你們中間必有人起來修造久已荒廢之處，立起代代相承的根基。你必稱為修補裂痕的，和重修路徑給人居住的。
