Ezra 6:11-13
New Life Version

And his house will become a place to gather waste. 12 May the God Who has caused His name to be there take away the power of any king or people who will try to change what I have said, so as to destroy this house of God in Jerusalem. I, Darius, have told this to you. Let it be done with much care.”
