2 Amariah, Malluch, Hattush,

3 Shechaniah, Rehum, Meremoth,

4 Ada, Azti, Abijah,

5 Benjamin, Meadriah, Belagiah,

6 Shemaiah, Nedo, Jedaiah,

7 Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah. These were the chiefs of the priests and of their brethren in the days of Joshua.

8 Moreover the Levites: Joshua and his sons, Kadmiah, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah, who were in charge to begin the thanksgiving, he and his brethren.

9 Also Bakbukah and Unni; their brethren were opposite to them in the watches.

10 And Joshua begat Joiakim, Joiakim begat Eliashib, and Eliashib begat Jehoiadah,

11 And Jehoiadah begat Jonathan, and Jonathan begat Jaddua.

12 And in the days of Joiakim were priests, the chiefs of the fathers; namely, Seraiah, Amariah, Jeremiah, Hananiah;

13 Azariah, Meshellum, Amariah, Johanan;

14 Malchiah, Jonathan, Shechaniah, Joseph;

15 Haram, Ariah, Meremoth, Lahmai;

16 Iddo, Zechariah, Gibton, Meshullam;

17 Abijah, Zichri, Benjamin, Moadiah, Polta;

19 Jehoidah, Mathnai, Jedaiah, Uzzi;

20 Sallai, Kallai, Amok, Ebid;

21 Hilkiah, Hashabiah, Hodah, Nathanael.

22 The Levites in the days of Eliashib, Jehoiadah, Johanan, and Jaddua, were recorded chiefs of the fathers; also the priests, to the reign of Darius the Persian.

23 The descendants of Levi, the chiefs of the fathers, were written in the book of the chronicles, even until the days of Johanan the son of Eliashib.

24 And the chiefs of the Levites were Hashbiel, Sherebiah, Joshua the son of Kadmiel, with their brethren opposite them, to praise and to give thanks, according to the commandments of David the prophet of the LORD, watch opposite watch.

25 Mattaniah, Bakai, Obadiah, Shallum, Atlam, and Akkub were porters keeping watch at the gates.

26 These were in the days of Joiakim the son of Joshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the governor and of Ezra the priest and scribe.

27 And when the wall of Jerusalem was finished, they gathered the Levites together in all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem to celebrate the dedication with gladness and rejoicing, with thanksgiving and with singing, with cymbals and with harps.

28 And the sons of the singers gathered themselves together from the plain country round about Jerusalem and from the villages of Netopha;

29 Also from Beth-gilgal and out of the valley of Gibeah and Armoth; for the singers had built for themselves villages round about Jerusalem.

30 And the priests and the Levites purified themselves and purified the people and the gates and the wall.

31 Then I brought up the chieftains of Judah upon the wall, and appointed two great companies; and they walked upon the wall toward the right of the great gate;

32 And with them went Hoshaiah and the half of the chieftains of Judah

33 And Azrael, Ezra, and Meshullam,

34 Judah and Benjamin and Shemaiah and Jeremiah

35 And certain of the priests' sons with trumpets; namely, Zechariah the son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Malka, the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph:

36 And his brethren, Shemaiah, Azrael, Melal, Gelal, Ater, Nathanael, Hanani, and Judah, with the musical instruments of David the prophet and servant of the LORD and Ezra the scribe went before them, above the fountain gate.

37 And opposite them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, to the great gate eastward.

38 And they gave thanks and went up upon the wall, and I after them, and the half of the people went up upon the wall, and they stood upon the great tower and upon the high wall and upon the broad wall;

39 And from above the gate of Ephraim, as far as the old gate to the fish gate; and from the tower of Hananeel, as far as the great tower, even to the sheep gate; and they stood still in the great gate.

40 Then the two companies that gave thanks entered the house of the LORD, and I and the half of the chieftains who were with me;

41 And the priests: Eliakim, Maasiah, Malhin, Michaiah, Eliho, Ananai, Zechariah, and Hananiah;

42 And those with trumpets: Maasiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Johanan, Malchijah, Elam, Ezer, and Shamua, the singers, and Zerahiah the leader.

43 Also that day they offered great sacrifices and rejoiced; for the LORD had made them rejoice with great joy; the wives also and the children rejoiced; so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.

44 And on that day certain men were appointed over the chambers of the king's storehouses to gather into them the offerings, the first fruits, and the tithes of the towns, as it is written in the book of the law, for the priests and Levites, since the Jews were rejoicing because the priests and the Levites had stood up keeping watch in the house of their God.

45 And those who had charge of the ceremonial of purification, and the singers and the porters, served according to the commandment of David and of Solomon his son.

46 For Asaph was in charge in the day of David, and he stood up at the head of the singers and sang praises and gave thanks before the LORD God.

47 And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel and in the days of Nehemiah gave gifts to the singers and to the porters, every day his portion; and they set aside holy things to the Levites; and the Levites set them aside for the descendants of Aaron.

37 And opposite them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, to the great gate eastward.

37 And at5921 the fountain5869 gate,8179 which was over5048 against5048 them, they went5927 up by the stairs4609 of the city5892 of David,1732 at the going4608 up of the wall,2346 above5921 the house1004 of David,1732 even to the water4325 gate8179 eastward.4217

38 And they gave thanks and went up upon the wall, and I after them, and the half of the people went up upon the wall, and they stood upon the great tower and upon the high wall and upon the broad wall;

38 And the other8145 company of them that gave thanks8426 went1980 over4136 against4136 them, and I after310 them, and the half2677 of the people5971 on the wall,2346 from beyond5921 the tower4026 of the furnaces8574 even to the broad7342 wall;2346

39 And from above the gate of Ephraim, as far as the old gate to the fish gate; and from the tower of Hananeel, as far as the great tower, even to the sheep gate; and they stood still in the great gate.

39 And from above5921 the gate8179 of Ephraim,669 and above5921 the old3465 gate,8179 and above5921 the fish1709 gate,8179 and the tower4026 of Hananeel,2606 and the tower4026 of Meah,3968 even to the sheep6629 gate:8179 and they stood5975 still in the prison4307 gate.8179

40 Then the two companies that gave thanks entered the house of the LORD, and I and the half of the chieftains who were with me;

40 So stood5975 the two8147 companies4256 of them that gave thanks8426 in the house1004 of God,430 and I, and the half2677 of the rulers5461 with me:

41 And the priests: Eliakim, Maasiah, Malhin, Michaiah, Eliho, Ananai, Zechariah, and Hananiah;

41 And the priests;3548 Eliakim,471 Maaseiah,4641 Miniamin,4509 Michaiah,4320 Elioenai,454 Zechariah,2148 and Hananiah,2608 with trumpets;2689

42 And those with trumpets: Maasiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Johanan, Malchijah, Elam, Ezer, and Shamua, the singers, and Zerahiah the leader.

42 And Maaseiah,4641 and Shemaiah,8098 and Eleazar,499 and Uzzi,5813 and Jehohanan,3076 and Malchijah,4441 and Elam,5867 and Ezer.5829 And the singers7891 sang7891 loud,8085 with Jezrahiah3156 their overseer.6496

43 Also that day they offered great sacrifices and rejoiced; for the LORD had made them rejoice with great joy; the wives also and the children rejoiced; so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard even afar off.

43 Also that day3117 they offered2076 great1419 sacrifices,2077 and rejoiced:8055 for God430 had made them rejoice8055 with great1419 joy:8057 the wives802 also and the children3206 rejoiced:8055 so that the joy8057 of Jerusalem3389 was heard8085 even afar7350 off.

44 And on that day certain men were appointed over the chambers of the king's storehouses to gather into them the offerings, the first fruits, and the tithes of the towns, as it is written in the book of the law, for the priests and Levites, since the Jews were rejoicing because the priests and the Levites had stood up keeping watch in the house of their God.

44 And at that time3117 were some582 appointed6485 over5921 the chambers5393 for the treasures,214 for the offerings,8641 for the first fruits,7225 and for the tithes,4643 to gather3664 into them out of the fields7704 of the cities5892 the portions4521 of the law8451 for the priests3548 and Levites:3881 for Judah3063 rejoiced8057 for the priests3548 and for the Levites3881 that waited.5975

45 And those who had charge of the ceremonial of purification, and the singers and the porters, served according to the commandment of David and of Solomon his son.

45 And both the singers7891 and the porters7778 kept8104 the ward4931 of their God,430 and the ward4931 of the purification,2893 according to the commandment4687 of David,1732 and of Solomon8010 his son.1121

46 For Asaph was in charge in the day of David, and he stood up at the head of the singers and sang praises and gave thanks before the LORD God.

46 For in the days3117 of David1732 and Asaph623 of old6924 there were chief7218 of the singers,7891 and songs7892 of praise8416 and thanksgiving3034 to God.430

47 And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel and in the days of Nehemiah gave gifts to the singers and to the porters, every day his portion; and they set aside holy things to the Levites; and the Levites set them aside for the descendants of Aaron.

47 And all3605 Israel3478 in the days3117 of Zerubbabel,2216 and in the days3117 of Nehemiah,5166 gave5414 the portions4521 of the singers7891 and the porters,7778 every day3117 his portion:1697 and they sanctified6942 holy6944 things to the Levites;3881 and the Levites3881 sanctified6942 them to the children1121 of Aaron.175
