Then sent the king an answer unto Rehum the chancellor, and to Shimshai the scribe, and to the rest of their companions that dwell in Samaria, and in the rest of the country beyond the River: Peace, and so forth.

Then the king sent an answer to Rehum, the chief ruler, and Shimshai the scribe, and their friends living in Samaria, and to the rest of those across the river, saying, Peace to you:

Ο βασιλευς απεκριθη προς τον Ρεουμ τον επαρχον και Σαμψαι τον γραμματεα και τους λοιπους συνεταιρους αυτων τους κατοικουντας εν Σαμαρεια, και τους αλλους τους περαν του ποταμου, Ειρηνη, και τα λοιπα.

Then sent the king an answer unto Rehum the chancellor, and to Shimshai the scribe, and to the rest of their companions that dwell in Samaria, and unto the rest beyond the river, Peace, and at such a time.
