of the Book of Ezra, KJV

⁸ Be it known unto the king, that we went into the province of Judea, to the house of the great God, which is builded with great stones, and timber is laid in the walls, and this work goeth fast on, and prospereth in their hands.
⁹ Then asked we those elders, and said unto them thus, Who commanded you to build this house, and to make up these walls?
¹⁰ We asked their names also, to certify thee, that we might write the names of the men that were the chief of them.
