RWebster - Nehemiah - 7

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,

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.

7:3  And I said to them, Let not the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun shall be hot; and while they stand by, let them shut the doors, and bar them : and appoint soldiers of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one to be opposite his house.

7:4  Now the city was large and great: but the people in it were few, and the houses were not built.

7:5  And my God put into my heart to gather the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, that they might be reckoned by genealogy. And I found a family record of the genealogy of them who came up at the first, and found written in it,

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 to his city;

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 ;

7:39  The priests: the children of Jedaiah, of the house of Jeshua, nine hundred and seventy and three.

7:40  The children of Immer, a thousand and fifty and two.

7:41  The children of Pashur, a thousand two hundred and forty and seven.

7:59  The children of Shephatiah, the children of Hattil, the children of Pochereth of Zebaim, the children of Amon.

7:60  All the Nethinims, and the children of Solomon’s servants, were three hundred and ninety and two.

7:61  And these were they who 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.

7:62  The children of Delaiah, the children of Tobiah, the children of Nekoda, six hundred and forty and two.

7:63  And of the priests: the children of Habaiah, the children of Koz, the children of Barzillai, who took one of the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite for a wife, and was called after their name.

7:64  These sought their family record among those that were reckoned by genealogy, but it was not found: therefore were they, as polluted, put from the priesthood.

7:65  And the Tirshatha said to them, that they should not eat of the most holy things, till there should stand up a priest with Urim and Thummim.

7:66  The whole congregation together was forty and two thousand three hundred and sixty,

7:67  Besides their male and female servants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred and thirty and seven: and they had two hundred and forty and five men and women singers.

7:68  Their horses, seven hundred and thirty and six: their mules, two hundred and forty and five:

7:69  Their camels, four hundred and thirty and five: six thousand seven hundred and twenty donkeys.

7:70  And some of the heads of the fathers’ houses gave to the work. The Tirshatha gave to the treasury a thousand drams of gold, fifty basins, five hundred and thirty priests’ garments.

7:71  And some of the heads of the fathers’ houses gave to the treasury of the work twenty thousand drams of gold, and two thousand and two hundred pounds of silver.
