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, 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. 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. 4 Now the city was large and great: but the people were few therein, and the houses were not builded.
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, 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; 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; 8 The children of Parosh, two thousand an hundred seventy and two. 9 The children of Shephatiah, three hundred seventy and two. 10 The children of Arah, six hundred fifty and two. 11 The children of Pahath-moab, of the children of Jeshua and Joab, two thousand and eight hundred and eighteen. 12 The children of Elam, a thousand two hundred fifty and four. 13 The children of Zattu, eight hundred forty and five. 14 The children of Zaccai, seven hundred and threescore. 15 The children of Binnui, six hundred forty and eight. 16 The children of Bebai, six hundred twenty and eight. 17 The children of Azgad, two thousand three hundred twenty and two. 18 The children of Adonikam, six hundred threescore and seven. 19 The children of Bigvai, two thousand threescore and seven. 20 The children of Adin, six hundred fifty and five. 21 The children of Ater of Hezekiah, ninety and eight. 22 The children of Hashum, three hundred twenty and eight. 23 The children of Bezai, three hundred twenty and four. 24 The children of Hariph, an hundred and twelve. 25 The children of Gibeon, ninety and five. 26 The men of Beth-lehem and Netophah, an hundred fourscore and eight. 27 The men of Anathoth, an hundred twenty and eight. 28 The men of Beth-azmaveth, forty and two. 29 The men of Kirjath-jearim, Chephirah, and Beeroth, seven hundred forty and three. 30 The men of Ramah and Geba, six hundred twenty and one. 31 The men of Michmas, an hundred and twenty and two. 32 The men of Beth-el and Ai, an hundred twenty and three. 33 The men of the other Nebo, fifty and two. 34 The children of the other Elam, a thousand two hundred fifty and four. 35 The children of Harim, three hundred and twenty. 36 The children of Jericho, three hundred forty and five. 37 The children of Lod, Hadid, and Ono, seven hundred twenty and one. 38 The children of Senaah, three thousand nine hundred and thirty.
39 ¶ The priests: the children of Jedaiah, of the house of Jeshua, nine hundred seventy and three. 40 The children of Immer, a thousand fifty and two. 41 The children of Pashur, a thousand two hundred forty and seven. 42 The children of Harim, a thousand and seventeen.
43 ¶ The Levites: the children of Jeshua, of Kadmiel, and of the children of Hodevah, seventy and four.
44 ¶ The singers: the children of Asaph, an hundred forty and 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, an hundred thirty and eight.
46 ¶ The Nethinims: the children of Ziha, the children of Hashupha, 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 Shalmai, 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 Phaseah, 52 The children of Besai, the children of Meunim, the children of Nephishesim, 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 Tamah, 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 of Zebaim, the children of Amon. 60 All the Nethinims, and the children of Solomon’s servants, were three hundred ninety and two. 61 And these were they which went up also from Tel-melah, Tel-haresha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer: but they could not shew their father’s house, nor their seed, whether they were of Israel. 62 The children of Delaiah, the children of Tobiah, the children of Nekoda, six hundred forty and two.
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. 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. 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.
66 ¶ The whole congregation together was forty and two thousand three hundred and threescore, 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. 68 Their horses, seven hundred thirty and six: their mules, two hundred forty and five: 69 Their camels, four hundred thirty and five: six thousand seven hundred and twenty asses.
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 basons, five hundred and thirty priests’ garments. 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. 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. 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.
1 Kad nu mūris bija uzcelts un es biju pavēlējis ielikt vārtos durvis un bija izkārtoti vārtu sargi, dziedātāji un Ievīti,
2 Tad es iecēlu savu brāli Hananiju un Hananju, kādu pils virsnieku, par virspavēlniekiem pār Jeruzālemi, jo Hananja bija ļoti uzticīgs vīrs un bijās Dievu vairāk nekā daudzi citi.
3 Un es sacīju viņiem: „Lai Jeruzālemes vārti netop atvērti, iekāms nesāk spīdēt karsta saule, un kamēr pat vēl sargi stāv, lai viņi aizslēdz un aizbultē durvis, bet sargus lai ieceļ no Jeruzālemes iedzīvotājiem katru savā vietā un katru iepretim savai mājai.“
4 Pilsēta bija gan plaša un liela, bet ļaužu tajā bija maz, un jaunuzceltu māju nebija nepavisam.
5 Tad mans Dievs iedvesa man sirdī domu, un es sapulcināju labiešus un priekšniekus un tautu, lai izveidotu viņu cilšu un dzimumu sarakstu. Un es atradu kādu cilšu sarakstu par tiem, kas bija pirmie atnākuši, un es atradu tajā rakstītu tā:
6 Šie ir Jūdas apgabala ļaudis, kas ir atnākuši atpakaļ no to trimdas gūstekņu vidus, kurus Bābeles ķēniņš Nebukadnēcars bija aizēdis; viņi atgriezās uz Jeruzālemi un Jūdu, katrs uz savu pilsētu,
7 Nākdami kopā ar Zerubābelu, Ješuu, Nechemiju, Asarju, Raamju, Nachamaniju, Mordochaju, Bilšanu, Misperetu, Bigvaju, Nechumu, Baānu. Israēla tautas vīriešu skaits bija šāds:

39 Priesteri: Jedajas dēli no Ješuas nama, deviņi simti septiņdesmit trīs;

48 Lebanas dēli, Hagabas dēli, Šalmaja dēli,

51 Gasāma dēli, Ūsas dēli, Pašeacha dēli,
52 Besaja dēli, Mehunītu dēli, Nefizitu dēli,
53 Bakbuka dēli, Hakufas dēli, Harhuras dēli,
54 Bacluta dēli, Mechidas dēli, Haršas dēli,
55 Barkosa dēli, Siseras dēli, Temacha dēli,
56 Neciacha dēli, Hatifas dēli.
57 Salamana kalpu dēli: Sotaja dēli, Sofereta dēli, Peridas dēli,
58 Jaālas dēli, Darkona dēli, Gidela dēli,
59 Šefatjas dēli, Hatila dēli, Pocheret-Hacebajima dēli, Amona dēli.
60 Visu tempļa kalpotāju un Salamana kalpu dēlu bija kopā trīs simti deviņdesmit divi.
61 Un šie ir tie, kas atnāca no Tel-Melachas, Tel-Charšas, Kerubas, Adonas un Immeras, bet viņi nevarēja uzrādīt savas dzimtis un savu izcelsmi, vai viņi ir no Israēla:
62 Delajas dēli, Tobijas dēli, Nekodās dēli, seši simti četrdesmit divi.
63 Ari no priesteriem: Habajas dēli, Hakoca dēli un Barsilaja dēli, kas bija ņēmis sievu no ģileādieša Barsilaja meitām un tika nosaukts pēc viņa vārda.
64 Šie meklēja savu sarakstu starp tiem, kas bija ierakstīti priesteru cilšu grāmatās, bet to neatrada, un viņus izslēdza no priesteru kārtas kā nešķīstus.
65 Zemes pārvaldnieks sacīja viņiem, lai viņi neēd no visusvētākā, līdz kamēr kāds priesteris neuzstāsies viņu labā ar ūrīm‘a un turamīm‘a pareģojumiem.
66 Visa draudze kopā bija četrdesmit divi tūkstoši trīs simti sešdesmit
67 Bez viņu kalpiem un kalponēm, kuru bija septiņi tūkstoši trīs simti trīsdesmit septiņi; viņiem bija divi simti četrdesmit pieci dziedātāji un dziedātājas.
68 Viņu zirgu skaits bija septiņi simti trīsdesmit seši, viņu mūļu—divi simti četrdesmit pieci;
69 Viņu kamieļu bija četri simti trīsdesmit pieci un viņu ēzeļu seši tūkstoši septiņi simti divdesmit.
70 Viena daļa no ģimeņu galvām ziedoja līdzekļus arī dievkalpojumiem. Zemes pārvaldnieks nodeva mantnīcai tūkstoti zelta dareiku, piecdesmit upura traukus, pieci simti trīsdesmit priesteru tērpus.
71 Arī citi no ģimeņu galvām ziedoja dievkalpojumiem divdesmit tūkstošus zelta dareiku un divi tūkstoši divi simti sudraba minu.
72 Bet tas, ko deva pārējā tauta, bija divdesmit tūkstoši zelta dareiku, divi tūkstoši sudraba minu un sešdesmit septiņi priesteru tērpi.
73 Tā priesteri, Ievīti, vārtu sargi, dziedātāji, daži no tautas un tempļa kal-potāji apmetās Jeruzālemē un tās apga-balā, turpretim viss pārējais Israēls dzīvoja savās dažādās apmešanās vietās. Un kad septītais mēnesis bija pienācis, tad Israēla bērni visi bija savās novietnēs.
