Riveduta Bibbia
Noi facciamo sapere al re che, se questa città si riedifica e le sue mura si rialzano, tu non avrai più possessi da questo lato del fiume".
Giovanni Diodati Bibbia
Noi facciamo assapere al re, che, se questa città è riedificata, e le sue mura son rifatte, la parte de’ suoi stati ch’è di qua dal fiume, non sarà più sua.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

thou shalt have: Ezra 4:20, 2 Samuel 8:3, 1 Kings 4:24

Reciprocal: Ezra 6:8 - the king's Ezra 7:21 - beyond the river Nehemiah 2:19 - will ye rebel

Gill's Notes on the Bible

We certify the king, that if this city be builded again, and the walls thereof set up,.... As it formerly was, and now attempted, as they suggest:

by this means thou shalt have no portion on this side the river; the river Euphrates; intimating that the Jews would not only shake off his yoke, and refuse to pay tribute themselves, but would seize on all his dominions on that side the river, and annex them to their own.
