17 “And now if to the king it seems good, let there be an investigation+ in the king’s house of treasures that is there in Babylon, whether it is so that from Cyrus the king an order+ was put through to rebuild that house of God in Jerusalem; and the decision of the king concerning this let him send to us.”

6 It was then that Da·riʹus the king put an order through, and they made an investigation in the house of the records+ of the treasures deposited there in Babylon.
