KJV - Ezra 4:15
That search may be made in the book of the records of thy fathers: so shalt thou find in the book of the records, and know that this city is a rebellious city, and hurtful unto kings and provinces, and that they have moved sedition within the same of old time: for which cause was this city destroyed.
Look in the history book of your ancestors to find information about this city. You will learn that it was a rebellious city causing trouble for kings and regions throughout history. This is why it was eventually destroyed.
