[1] Now it happened, when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors,
and the porters and the singers and the Levites were appointed, [2] that I
gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the governor of the castle, charge
over Jerusalem; for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many. [3] I
said to them, Don`t let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun be
hot; and while they stand [on guard], let them shut the doors, and bar you
them: and appoint watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, everyone in his
watch, and everyone [to be] over against his house. [4] Now the city was
wide and large; but the people were few therein, and the houses were not
built. [5] My God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the
rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. I found
the book of the genealogy of those who came up at the first, and I found
written therein: [6] These are the children of the province, who went up
out of the captivity of those who had been carried away, whom
Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and who returned to
Jerusalem and to Judah, everyone to his city; [7] who came with Zerubbabel,
Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth,
Bigvai, Nehum, Baanah. The number of the men of the people of Israel: [8]
The children of Parosh, two thousand one hundred seventy-two. [9] The
children of Shephatiah, three hundred seventy-two. [10] The children of
Arah, six hundred fifty-two. [11] The children of Pahath-moab, of the
children of Jeshua and Joab, two thousand eight hundred [and] eighteen.
[12] The children of Elam, one thousand two hundred fifty-four. [13] The

seven hundred sixty. [15] The children of Binnui, six hundred forty-eight.
[16] The children of Bebai, six hundred twenty-eight. [17] The children of
Azgad, two thousand three hundred twenty-two. [18] The children of
Adonikam, six hundred sixty-seven. [19] The children of Bigvai, two
thousand sixty-seven. [20] The children of Adin, six hundred fifty-five.
[21] The children of Ater, of Hezekiah, ninety-eight. [22] The children of
Hashum, three hundred Twenty-eight. [23] The children of Bezai, three

The children of Gibeon, ninety-five. [26] The men of Bethlehem and
Netophah, one hundred eighty-eight. [27] The men of Anathoth, one hundred
twenty-eight. [28] The men of Beth-azmaveth, forty-two. [29] The men of
Kiriath-jearim, Chephirah, and Beeroth, seven hundred forty-three. [30] The
men of Ramah and Geba, six hundred twenty-one. [31] The men of Michmas, one
hundred and twenty-two. [32] The men of Bethel and Ai, a hundred
twenty-three. [33] The men of the other Nebo, fifty-two. [34] The children
of the other Elam, one thousand two hundred fifty-four. [35] The children
of Harim, three hundred twenty. [36] The children of Jericho, three hundred
forty-five. [37] The children of Lod, Hadid, and Ono, seven hundred
twenty-one. [38] The children of Senaah, three thousand nine hundred
thirty. [39] The priests: The children of Jedaiah, of the house of Jeshua,
nine hundred seventy-three. [40] The children of Immer, one thousand
fifty-two. [41] The children of Pashhur, one thousand two hundred
forty-seven. [42] The children of Harim, one thousand [and] seventeen. [43]
The Levites: the children of Jeshua, of Kadmiel, of the children of
Hodevah, seventy-four. [44] The singers: the children of Asaph, one hundred
forty-eight. [45] The porters: the children of Shallum, the children of
Ater, the children of Talmon, the children of Akkub, the children of
Hatita, the children of Shobai, one hundred thirty-eight. [46] The
Nethinim: the children of Ziha, the children of Hasupha, the children of
Tabbaoth, [47] the children of Keros, the children of Sia, the children of
Padon, [48] the children of Lebana, the children of Hagaba, the children of
Salmai, [49] the children of Hanan, the children of Giddel, the children of
Gahar, [50] the children of Reaiah, the children of Rezin, the children of
Nekoda, [51] the children of Gazzam, the children of Uzza, the children of
Paseah. [52] The children of Besai, the children of Meunim, the children of
Nephushesim, [53] the children of Bakbuk, the children of Hakupha, the
children of Harhur, [54] the children of Bazlith, the children of Mehida,
the children of Harsha, [55] the children of Barkos, the children of
Sisera, the children of Temah, [56] the children of Neziah, the children of
Hatipha. [57] The children of Solomon`s servants: the children of Sotai,
the children of Sophereth, the children of Perida, [58] the children of
Jaala, the children of Darkon, the children of Giddel, [59] the children of
Shephatiah, the children of Hattil, the children of Pochereth-hazzebaim,
the children of Amon. [60] All the Nethinim, and the children of Solomon`s
servants, were three hundred ninety-two. [61] These were those who went up
from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer; but they could not
show their fathers` houses, nor their seed, whether they were of Israel:
[62] The children of Delaiah, the children of Tobiah, the children of
Nekoda, six hundred forty-two. [63] Of the priests: the children of
Hobaiah, the children of Hakkoz, the children of Barzillai, who took a wife
of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, and was called after their
name. [64] These sought their register [among] those who were reckoned by
genealogy, but it was not found: therefore were they deemed polluted and
put from the priesthood. [65] The governor said to them, that they should
not eat of the most holy things, until there stood up a priest with Urim
and Thummim. [66] The whole assembly together was forty-two thousand three
hundred sixty, [67] besides their men-servants and their maid-servants, of
whom there were seven thousand three hundred thirty-seven: and they had two
hundred forty-five singing men and singing women. [68] Their horses were
seven hundred thirty-six; their mules, two hundred forty-five; [69] [their]
camels, four hundred thirty-five; [their] donkeys, six thousand seven
hundred twenty. [70] Some from among the heads of fathers` [houses] gave to
the work. The governor gave to the treasury one thousand darics of gold,
fifty basins, and five hundred thirty priests` garments. [71] Some of the
heads of fathers` [houses] gave into the treasury of the work twenty
thousand darics of gold, and two thousand two hundred pounds of silver.
[72] That which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand darics of
gold, and two thousand pounds of silver, and sixty-seven priests` garments.
[73] So the priests, and the Levites, and the porters, and the singers, and
some of the people, and the Nethinim, and all Israel, lived in their
cities. When the seventh month was come, the children of Israel were in
their cities.
