Now these are the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 that went upH5927 with ZerubbabelH2216 the sonH1121 of ShealtielH7597, and JeshuaH3442: SeraiahH8304, JeremiahH3414, EzraH5830, AmariahH568, MalluchH4409, HattushH2407, ShecaniahH7935, RehumH7348, MeremothH4822, IddoH5714, GinnethoiH1599, AbijahH29, MijaminH4326, MaadiahH4573, BilgahH1083, ShemaiahH8098, and JoiaribH3114, JedaiahH3048. SalluH5543, AmokH5987, HilkiahH2518, JedaiahH3048. These were the chiefsH7218 of the priestsH3548 and of their brethrenH251 in the daysH3117 of JeshuaH3442. Moreover the LevitesH3881: JeshuaH3442, BinnuiH1131, KadmielH6934, SherebiahH8274, JudahH3063, and MattaniahH4983, who was over the thanksgivingH1960, he and his brethrenH251. Also BakbukiahH1229 and UnnoH6042, their brethrenH251, were over against them according to their officesH4931. And JeshuaH3442 begatH3205 JoiakimH3113, and JoiakimH3113 begatH3205 EliashibH475, and EliashibH475 begatH3205 JoiadaH3111, and JoiadaH3111 begatH3205 JonathanH3129, and JonathanH3129 begatH3205 JadduaH3037. And in the daysH3117 of JoiakimH3113 were priestsH3548, headsH7218 of fathersH1' houses: of SeraiahH8304, MeraiahH4811; of JeremiahH3414, HananiahH2608; of EzraH5830, MeshullamH4918; of AmariahH568, JehohananH3076; of MalluchiH4409, JonathanH3129; of ShebaniahH7645, JosephH3130; of HarimH2766, AdnaH5733; of MeraiothH4812, HelkaiH2517; of IddoH5714, ZechariahH2148; of GinnethonH1599, MeshullamH4918; of AbijahH29, ZichriH2147; of MiniaminH4509, of MoadiahH4153, PiltaiH6408; of BilgahH1083, ShammuaH8051; of ShemaiahH8098, JehonathanH3083; and of JoiaribH3114, MattenaiH4982; of JedaiahH3048, UzziH5813; of SallaiH5543, KallaiH7040; of AmokH5987, EberH5677; of HilkiahH2518, HashabiahH2811; of JedaiahH3048, NethanelH5417. As for the LevitesH3881, in the daysH3117 of EliashibH475, JoiadaH3111, and JohananH3110, and JadduaH3037, there were recordedH3789 the headsH7218 of fathersH1' houses; also the priestsH3548, in the reignH4438 of DariusH1867 the PersianH6542. The sonsH1121 of LeviH3878, headsH7218 of fathersH1' houses, were writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697, even until the daysH3117 of JohananH3110 the sonH1121 of EliashibH475. And the chiefsH7218 of the LevitesH3881: HashabiahH2811, SherebiahH8274, and JeshuaH3442 the sonH1121 of KadmielH6934, with their brethrenH251 over against them, to praiseH1984 and give thanksH3034, according to the commandmentH4687 of DavidH1732 the manH376 of GodH430, watchH4929 nextH5980 to watchH4929. MattaniahH4983, and BakbukiahH1229, ObadiahH5662, MeshullamH4918, TalmonH2929, AkkubH6126, were portersH7778 keepingH8104 the watchH4929 at the store-housesH624 of the gatesH8179. These were in the daysH3117 of JoiakimH3113 the sonH1121 of JeshuaH3442, the sonH1121 of JozadakH3136, and in the daysH3117 of NehemiahH5166 the governorH6346, and of EzraH5830 the priestH3548 the scribeH5608. And at the dedicationH2598 of the wallH2346 of JerusalemH3389 they soughtH1245 the LevitesH3881 out of all their placesH4725, to bringH935 them to JerusalemH3389, to keepH6213 the dedicationH2598 with gladnessH8057, both with thanksgivingsH8426, and with singingH7892, with cymbalsH4700, psalteriesH5035, and with harpsH3658. And the sonsH1121 of the singersH7891 gathered themselves togetherH622, both out of the plainH3603 round aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389, and from the villagesH2691 of the NetophathitesH5200; also from BethH1004-gilgalH1537, and out of the fieldsH7704 of GebaH1387 and AzmavethH5820: for the singersH7891 had buildedH1129 them villagesH2691 round aboutH5439 JerusalemH3389. And the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 purifiedH2891 themselves; and they purifiedH2891 the peopleH5971, and the gatesH8179, and the wallH2346. Then I brought upH5927 the princesH8269 of JudahH3063 upon the wallH2346, and appointedH5975 twoH8147 greatH1419 companies that gave thanksH8426 and went in procession; whereof one wentH8418 on the right handH3225 upon the wallH2346 toward the dungH830 gateH8179: and afterH310 them wentH3212 HoshaiahH1955, and halfH2677 of the princesH8269 of JudahH3063, and AzariahH5838, EzraH5830, and MeshullamH4918, JudahH3063, and BenjaminH1144, and ShemaiahH8098, and JeremiahH3414, and certain of the priestsH3548' sonsH1121 with trumpetsH2689: ZechariahH2148 the sonH1121 of JonathanH3129, the sonH1121 of ShemaiahH8098, the sonH1121 of MattaniahH4983, the sonH1121 of MicaiahH4320, the sonH1121 of ZaccurH2139, the sonH1121 of AsaphH623; and his brethrenH251, ShemaiahH8098, and AzarelH5832, MilalaiH4450, GilalaiH1562, MaaiH4597, NethanelH5417, and JudahH3063, HananiH2607, with the musicalH7892 instrumentsH3627 of DavidH1732 the manH376 of GodH430; and EzraH5830 the scribeH5608 was beforeH6440 them. And by the fountainH5869 gateH8179, and straight before them, they went upH5927 by the stairsH4609 of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, at the ascentH4608 of the wallH2346, above the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, even unto the waterH4325 gateH8179 eastwardH4217. And the otherH8145 company of them that gave thanksH8426 wentH1980 to meetH4136 them, and I afterH310 them, with the halfH2677 of the peopleH5971, upon the wallH2346, above the towerH4026 of the furnacesH8574, even unto the broadH7342 wallH2346, and above the gateH8179 of EphraimH669, and by the oldH3465 gateH8179, and by the fishH1709 gateH8179, and the towerH4026 of HananelH2606, and the towerH4026 of HammeahH3968, even unto the sheepH6629 gateH8179: and they stood stillH5975 in the gateH8179 of the guardH4307. So stoodH5975 the twoH8147 companies of them that gave thanksH8426 in the houseH1004 of GodH430, and I, and the halfH2677 of the rulersH5461 with me; and the priestsH3548, EliakimH471, MaaseiahH4641, MiniaminH4509, MicaiahH4320, ElioenaiH454, ZechariahH2148, and HananiahH2608, with trumpetsH2689; and MaaseiahH4641, and ShemaiahH8098, and EleazarH499, and UzziH5813, and JehohananH3076, and MalchijahH4441, and ElamH5867, and EzerH5829. And the singersH7891 sang loudH8085, with JezrahiahH3156 their overseerH6496. And they offeredH2076 greatH1419 sacrificesH2077 that dayH3117, and rejoicedH8055; for GodH430 had made them rejoiceH8055 with greatH1419 joyH8057; and the womenH802 also and the childrenH3206 rejoicedH8055: so that the joyH8057 of JerusalemH3389 was heardH8085 even afar offH7350. And on that dayH3117 were menH582 appointedH6485 over the chambersH5393 for the treasuresH214, for the heave-offeringsH8641, for the first-fruitsH7225, and for the tithesH4643, to gatherH3664 into them, according to the fieldsH7704 of the citiesH5892, the portionsH4521 appointed by the lawH8451 for the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881: for JudahH3063 rejoicedH8057 for the priestsH3548 and for the LevitesH3881 that waitedH5975. And they keptH8104 the chargeH4931 of their GodH430, and the chargeH4931 of the purificationH2893, and so did the singersH7891 and the portersH7778, according to the commandmentH4687 of DavidH1732, and of SolomonH8010 his sonH1121. For in the daysH3117 of DavidH1732 and AsaphH623 of oldH6924 there was a chiefH7218 of the singersH7891, and songsH7892 of praiseH8416 and thanksgivingH3034 unto GodH430. And all IsraelH3478 in the daysH3117 of ZerubbabelH2216, and in the daysH3117 of NehemiahH5166, gaveH5414 the portionsH4521 of the singersH7891 and the portersH7778, as every dayH3117 requiredH1697: and they set apartH6942 that which was for the LevitesH3881; and the LevitesH3881 set apartH6942 that which was for the sonsH1121 of AaronH175.
