Ezra 5:11

And thus they returned us answer, saying, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth, and build the house that was builded these many years ago, which a great king of Israel builded and set up.

KJV

Hujuscemodi autem sermonem responderunt nobis dicentes : Nos sumus servi Dei cæli et terræ, et ædificamus templum, quod erat exstructum ante hos annos multos, quodque rex Israël magnus ædificaverat, et exstruxerat.

Vulgate

καὶ τοῦτο τὸ ῥῆμα ἀπεκρίθησαν ἡμῖν λέγοντες Ἡμεῖς ἐσμεν δοῦλοι τοῦ θεοῦ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ τῆς γῆς, καὶ οἰκοδομοῦμεν τὸν οἶκον ὃς ἦν οἰκοδομημένος πρὸ τούτου ἔτη πολλά, καὶ βασιλεύς τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ μέγας ᾠκοδόμησεν αὐτὸν καὶ κατηρτίσατο αὐτὸν αὐτοῖς.

LXX

And thus they returned us answer, saying, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth, and are building the house that was builded these many years ago, which a great king of Israel builded and finished.
