H259Now in the firstH8141yearH3566of CyrusH4428kingH6539of PersiaH1697, that the wordH3068of the LORDH6310by the mouthH3414of JeremiahH3615might be fulfilled[H8800] H3068, the LORDH5782stirred up[H8689] H7307the spiritH3566of CyrusH4428kingH6539of PersiaH5674, that he made a proclamation[H8686] H6963 H4438throughout all his kingdomH4385, and put it also in writingH559, saying[H8800] ,
H3068Wherefore the LORDH559said[H8799] H8010unto SolomonH8104, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept[H8804] H1285my covenantH2708and my statutesH6680, which I have commanded[H8765] H7167thee, I will surely[H8800] H7167rend[H8799] H4467the kingdomH5414from thee, and will give[H8804] H5650it to thy servant.
