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,

Azmaveth, forty-two. 29 The men of
Kiriath Jearim, Chephirah, and Beeroth, seven hundred forty-three. 30 The

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 minas of silver. 72 That
which the rest of the people gave was twenty thousand darics of gold, and two
thousand minas 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.
