NE7

NE-7:1 Now it came to pass, when the wall was built, and I had

set up the

doors, and the porters and the singers and the Levites were

appointed,

NE-7:2 That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of

the palace,

charge over Jerusalem: for he [was] a faithful man, and feared

God above many.

NE-7:3 And I said unto them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be

opened until

the sun be hot; and while they stand by, let them shut the doors,

and bar

[them]: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem,

every one in his

watch, and every one [to be] over against his house.

NE-7:4 Now the city [was] large and great: but the people

[were] few therein,

and the houses [were] not builded.

NE-7:5 And my God put into mine heart to gather together the

nobles, and the

rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy.

And I found

a register of the genealogy of them which came up at the first,

and found

written therein,

NE-7:6 These [are] the children of the province, that went up

out of the

captivity, of those that had been carried away, whom

Nebuchadnezzar the king

of Babylon had carried away, and came again to Jerusalem and to

Judah, every

one unto his city;

NE-7:7 Who came with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah,

Raamiah,

Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, Baanah.

The number, [I

say], of the men of the people of Israel [was this];

and two.

NE-7:55 The children of Barkos, the children of Sisera, the

children of

children of

Pochereth of Zebaim, the children of Amon.

NE-7:60 All the Nethinims, and the children of Solomon's

servants, [were]

three hundred ninety and two.

NE-7:61 And these [were] they which went up [also] from

Telmelah, Telharesha,

Cherub, Addon, and Immer: but they could not show their father's

house, nor

their seed, whether they [were] of Israel.

NE-7:62 The children of Delaiah, the children of Tobiah, the

children of

Nekoda, six hundred forty and two.

NE-7:63 And of the priests: the children of Habaiah, the

children of Koz, the

children of Barzillai, which took [one] of the daughters of

Barzillai the

Gileadite to wife, and was called after their name.

NE-7:64 These sought their register [among] those that were

reckoned by

genealogy, but it was not found: therefore were they, as

polluted, put from

the priesthood.

NE-7:65 And the Tirshatha said unto them, that they should not

eat of the

most holy things, till there stood [up] a priest with Urim and

Thummim.

NE-7:66 The whole congregation together [was] forty and two

thousand three

hundred and threescore,

NE-7:67 Beside their manservants and their maidservants, of

whom [there were]

seven thousand three hundred thirty and seven: and they had two

hundred forty

and five singing men and singing women.

NE-7:68 Their horses, seven hundred thirty and six: their mules,

two hundred

forty and five:

NE-7:69 [Their] camels, four hundred thirty and five: six

thousand seven

hundred and twenty asses.

NE-7:70 And some of the chief of the fathers gave unto the work.

The

Tirshatha gave to the treasure a thousand drams of gold, fifty

basins, five

hundred and thirty priests' garments.

NE-7:71 And [some] of the chief of the fathers gave to the

treasure of the

work twenty thousand drams of gold, and two thousand and two

hundred pound of

silver.

NE-7:72 And [that] which the rest of the people gave [was]

twenty thousand

drams of gold, and two thousand pound of silver, and threescore

and seven

priests' garments.

NE-7:73 So the priests, and the Levites, and the porters, and

the singers,

and [some] of the people, and the Nethinims, and all Israel,

dwelt in their

cities; and when the seventh month came, the children of Israel

[were] in

their cities.
