9Building an house vnto the Lord, great, and newe, of hewen and costly stones, and the timber already laid vpon the walles. 10And those workes are done with great speede, and the worke goeth on prosperously in their handes, and with all glory and diligence is it made. 11Then asked wee these Elders, saying, By whose commaundement builde you this house, and lay the foundations of these workes? 12Therefore to the intent that wee might giue knowledge vnto thee by writing, we demanded of them who were the chiefe doers, and we required of them the names in writing of their principall men. 13So they gaue vs this answere: We are the seruants of the Lord which made heauen and earth.
