AB - Nehemiah - 7

7:1  And 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 charge to my brother, and Hanani the ruler of the palace, over Jerusalem; for he was a true man, and one that feared God beyond many.

7:3  And I said to them, The gates of Jerusalem shall not be opened till sunrise; and while they are still watching, let the doors be shut, and bolted; and set watches of them that dwell in Jerusalem, every man at his post, and every man over against his house.

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

7:5  And God put it into my heart, and I gathered the nobles and the rulers and the people into companies; and I found a register of the company that came up first, and I found written in it as follows:
