Then Sisinnes the governor of Coelesyria and Phoenicia, and Sathrabuzanes, and their associates, following the orders of King Darius: For Sisinnes, Sathrabuzanes, and their associates, see 1 Esd 6.3; for Coelesyria and Phoenicia, see 1 Esd 2.16. We suggest translating this verse as a separate sentence as follows:

• After this Sisinnes, the governor of the province of Phoenicia and Greater Syria, along with Shethar Bozenai and the other officials, obeyed the orders from King Darius [or, did what King Darius commanded].
