   singers, the Nethinims, and all they that had separated themselves from the   
   people of the lands unto the law of God, their wives, their sons, and their   
   daughters, every one having knowledge, and having understanding; Nehemiah   
   10:29   
   29 They clave to their brethren, their nobles, and entered into a curse, and   
   into an oath, to walk in God's law, which was given by Moses the servant of   
   God, and to observe and do all the commandments of the LORD our Lord, and   
   his judgments and his statutes; Nehemiah 10:30   
   30 And that we would not give our daughters unto the people of the land, nor   
   take their daughters for our sons:   
   Nehemiah 10:31   
   31 And if the people of the land bring ware or any victuals on the sabbath day   
   to sell, that we would not buy it of them on the sabbath, or on the holy day:   
   and that we would leave the seventh year, and the exaction of every debt.   
   Nehemiah 10:32   
   32 Also we made ordinances for us, to charge ourselves yearly with the third   
   part of a shekel for the service of the house of our God; Nehemiah 10:33   
   33 For the shewbread, and for the continual meat offering, and for the   
   continual burnt offering, of the sabbaths, of the new moons, for the set   
   feasts, and for the holy things, and for the sin offerings to make an   
   atonement for Israel, and for all the work of the house of our God. Nehemiah   
   10:34   
   34 And we cast the lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people, for   
   the wood offering, to bring it into the house of our God, after the houses of   
   our fathers, at times appointed year by year, to burn upon the altar of   
   the LORD our God, as it is written in the law: Nehemiah 10:35   
   35 And to bring the firstfruits of our ground, and the firstfruits of all   
   fruit of all trees, year by year, unto the house of the LORD: Nehemiah 10:36   
   36 Also the firstborn of our sons, and of our cattle, as it is written in the   
   law, and the firstlings of our herds and of our flocks, to bring to the house   
   of our God, unto the priests that minister in the house of our God: Nehemiah   
   10:37   
   37 And that we should bring the firstfruits of our dough, and our offerings,   
   and the fruit of all manner of trees, of wine and of oil, unto the priests, to   
   the chambers of the house of our God; and the tithes of our ground unto the   
   Levites, that the same Levites might have the tithes in all the cities of   
   our tillage.   
   Nehemiah 10:38   
   38 And the priest the son of Aaron shall be with the Levites, when the Levites   
   take tithes: and the Levites shall bring up the tithe of the tithes unto the   
   house of our God, to the chambers, into the treasure house. Nehemiah 10:39   
   39 For the children of Israel and the children of Levi shall bring the   
   offering of the corn, of the new wine, and the oil, unto the chambers, where   
   are the vessels of the sanctuary, and the priests that minister, and the   
   porters, and the singers: and we will not forsake the house of our God.   
   CHAPTER 11   
   Nehemiah 11:1   
   1 And the rulers of the people dwelt at Jerusalem: the rest of the people also   
   cast lots, to bring one of ten to dwell in Jerusalem the holy city, and   
   nine parts to dwell in other cities. Nehemiah 11:2   
   2 And the people blessed all the men, that willingly offered themselves to   
   dwell at Jerusalem.   
   Nehemiah 11:3   
   3 Now these are the chief of the province that dwelt in Jerusalem: but in the   
   cities of Judah dwelt every one in his possession in their cities, to wit,   
   Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and the Nethinims, and the children    
   of Solomon's servants.   
   Nehemiah 11:4

   Joed, the son of Pedaiah, the son of Kolaiah, the son of Maaseiah, the son of

   11 Seraiah the son of Hilkiah, the son of Meshullam, the son of Zadok, the son   
   of Meraioth, the son of Ahitub, was the ruler of the house of God. Nehemiah

   12 And their brethren that did the work of the house were eight hundred twenty   
   and two: and Adaiah the son of Jeroham, the son of Pelaliah, the son of   
   Amzi, the son of Zechariah, the son of Pashur, the son of Malchiah,   
   Nehemiah 11:13   
   13 And his brethren, chief of the fathers, two hundred forty and two: and   
   Amashai the son of Azareel, the son of Ahasai, the son of Meshillemoth, the   
   son of Immer,   
   Nehemiah 11:14   
   14 And their brethren, mighty men of valour, an hundred twenty and eight: and   
   their overseer was Zabdiel, the son of one of the great men. Nehemiah 11:15   
   15 Also of the Levites: Shemaiah the son of Hashub, the son of Azrikam, the   
   son of Hashabiah, the son of Bunni; Nehemiah 11:16   
   16 And Shabbethai and Jozabad, of the chief of the Levites, had the oversight   
   of the outward business of the house of God. Nehemiah 11:17   
   17 And Mattaniah the son of Micha, the son of Zabdi, the son of Asaph, was the   
   principal to begin the thanksgiving in prayer: and Bakbukiah the second among   
   his brethren, and Abda the son of Shammua, the son of Galal, the son of   
   Jeduthun.   
   Nehemiah 11:18   
   18 All the Levites in the holy city were two hundred fourscore and four.   
   Nehemiah 11:19   
   19 Moreover the porters, Akkub, Talmon, and their brethren that kept the   
   gates, were an hundred seventy and two. Nehemiah 11:20   
   20 And the residue of Israel, of the priests, and the Levites, were in all the   
   cities of Judah, every one in his inheritance. Nehemiah 11:21   
   21 But the Nethinims dwelt in Ophel: and Ziha and Gispa were over the   
   Nethinims.   
   Nehemiah 11:22   
   22 The overseer also of the Levites at Jerusalem was Uzzi the son of Bani, the   
   son of Hashabiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micha. Of the sons of   
   Asaph, the singers were over the business of the house of God. Nehemiah   
   11:23   
   23 For it was the king's commandment concerning them, that a certain portion   
   should be for the singers, due for every day. Nehemiah 11:24   
   24 And Pethahiah the son of Meshezabeel, of the children of Zerah the son of   
   Judah, was at the king's hand in all matters concerning the people. Nehemiah   
   11:25   
   25 And for the villages, with their fields, some of the children of Judah   
   dwelt at Kirjatharba, and in the villages thereof, and at Dibon, and in the

   Nehemiah 12:1   
   1 Now these are the priests and the Levites that went up with Zerubbabel the   
   son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua: Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra, Nehemiah 12:2   
   2 Amariah, Malluch, Hattush,   
   Nehemiah 12:3   
   3 Shechaniah, Rehum, Meremoth,   
   Nehemiah 12:4

   Nehemiah 12:5   
   5 Miamin, Maadiah, Bilgah,   
   Nehemiah 12:6   
   6 Shemaiah, and Joiarib, Jedaiah,

   7 Sallu, Amok, Hilkiah, Jedaiah. These were the chief of the priests and of   
   their brethren in the days of Jeshua. Nehemiah 12:8   
   8 Moreover the Levites: Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and   
   Mattaniah, which was over the thanksgiving, he and his brethren. Nehemiah 12:9   
   9 Also Bakbukiah and Unni, their brethren, were over against them in the   
   watches.   
   Nehemiah 12:10   
   10 And Jeshua begat Joiakim, Joiakim also begat Eliashib, and Eliashib begat   
   Joiada,   
   Nehemiah 12:11   
   11 And Joiada begat Jonathan, and Jonathan begat Jaddua. Nehemiah 12:12   
   12 And in the days of Joiakim were priests, the chief of the fathers: of   
   Seraiah, Meraiah; of Jeremiah, Hananiah; Nehemiah 12:13   
   13 Of Ezra, Meshullam; of Amariah, Jehohanan; Nehemiah 12:14   
   14 Of Melicu, Jonathan; of Shebaniah, Joseph; Nehemiah 12:15   
   15 Of Harim, Adna; of Meraioth, Helkai; Nehemiah 12:16   
   16 Of Iddo, Zechariah; of Ginnethon, Meshullam; Nehemiah 12:17

   22 The Levites in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, and Johanan, and Jaddua, were   
   recorded chief of the fathers: also the priests, to the reign of Darius the   
   Persian.   
   Nehemiah 12:23   
   23 The sons of Levi, the chief of the fathers, were written in the book of the   
   chronicles, even until the days of Johanan the son of Eliashib. Nehemiah 12:24   
   24 And the chief of the Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua the son of   
   Kadmiel, with their brethren over against them, to praise and to give thanks,   
   according to the commandment of David the man of God, ward over against    
   ward.   
   Nehemiah 12:25   
   25 Mattaniah, and Bakbukiah, Obadiah, Meshullam, Talmon, Akkub, were porters   
   keeping the ward at the thresholds of the gates. Nehemiah 12:26   
   26 These were in the days of Joiakim the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak,   
   and in the days of Nehemiah the governor, and of Ezra the priest, the scribe.   
   Nehemiah 12:27   
   27 And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out   
   of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to keep the dedication with   
   gladness, both with thanksgivings, and with singing, with cymbals,   
   psalteries, and with harps.   
   Nehemiah 12:28   
   28 And the sons of the singers gathered themselves together, both out of the   
   plain country round about Jerusalem, and from the villages of Netophathi;   
   Nehemiah 12:29   
   29 Also from the house of Gilgal, and out of the fields of Geba and Azmaveth:   
   for the singers had builded them villages round about Jerusalem. Nehemiah 12:30   
   30 And the priests and the Levites purified themselves, and purified the   
   people, and the gates, and the wall. Nehemiah 12:31   
   31 Then I brought up the princes of Judah upon the wall, and appointed two   
   great companies of them that gave thanks, whereof one went on the right hand   
   upon the wall toward the dung gate: Nehemiah 12:32   
   32 And after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the princes of Judah, Nehemiah   
   12:33   
   33 And Azariah, Ezra, and Meshullam, Nehemiah 12:34   
   34 Judah, and Benjamin, and Shemaiah, and Jeremiah, Nehemiah 12:35   
   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 Michaiah,   
   the son of Zaccur, the son of Asaph: Nehemiah 12:36   
   36 And his brethren, Shemaiah, and Azarael, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethaneel,   
   and Judah, Hanani, with the musical instruments of David the man of God, and   
   Ezra the scribe before them. Nehemiah 12:37   
   37 And at the fountain gate, which was over against them, they went up by the   
   stairs of the city of David, at the going up of the wall, above the house of   
   David, even unto the water gate eastward. Nehemiah 12:38   
   38 And the other company of them that gave thanks went over against them, and   
   I after them, and the half of the people upon the wall, from beyond the tower   
   of the furnaces even unto the broad wall; Nehemiah 12:39   
   39 And from above the gate of Ephraim, and above the old gate, and above the   
   fish gate, and the tower of Hananeel, and the tower of Meah, even unto the   
   sheep gate: and they stood still in the prison gate. Nehemiah 12:40   
   40 So stood the two companies of them that gave thanks in the house of God,   
   and I, and the half of the rulers with me: Nehemiah 12:41   
   41 And the priests; Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Michaiah, Elioenai,   
   Zechariah, and Hananiah, with trumpets; Nehemiah 12:42   
   42 And Maaseiah, and Shemaiah, and Eleazar, and Uzzi, and Jehohanan, and   
   Malchijah, and Elam, and Ezer. And the singers sang loud, with Jezrahiah their   
   overseer.   
   Nehemiah 12:43   
   43 Also that day they offered great sacrifices, and rejoiced: for God 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. Nehemiah 12:44   
   44 And at that time were some appointed over the chambers for the treasures,   
   for the offerings, for the firstfruits, and for the tithes, to gather into   
   them out of the fields of the cities the portions of the law for the priests    
   and Levites: for Judah rejoiced for the priests and for the Levites that   
   waited.   
   Nehemiah 12:45   
   45 And both the singers and the porters kept the ward of their God, and the   
   ward of the purification, according to the commandment of David, and of   
   Solomon his son.   
   Nehemiah 12:46   
   46 For in the days of David and Asaph of old there were chief of the singers,   
   and songs of praise and thanksgiving unto God. Nehemiah 12:47   
   47 And all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel, and in the days of Nehemiah, gave   
   the portions of the singers and the porters, every day his portion: and they   
   sanctified holy things unto the Levites; and the Levites sanctified them   
   unto the children of Aaron.   
   CHAPTER 13   
   Nehemiah 13:1   
   1 On that day they read in the book of Moses in the audience of the people;   
   and therein was found written, that the Ammonite and the Moabite should not   
   come into the congregation of God for ever; Nehemiah 13:2   
   2 Because they met not the children of Israel with bread and with water, but   
   hired Balaam against them, that he should curse them: howbeit our God turned   
   the curse into a blessing.   
   Nehemiah 13:3   
   3 Now it came to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated from   
   Israel all the mixed multitude.   
   Nehemiah 13:4   
   4 And before this, Eliashib the priest, having the oversight of the chamber of   
   the house of our God, was allied unto Tobiah: Nehemiah 13:5   
   5 And he had prepared for him a great chamber, where aforetime they laid the   
   meat offerings, the frankincense, and the vessels, and the tithes of the corn,   
   the new wine, and the oil, which was commanded to be given to the Levites,    
   and the singers, and the porters; and the offerings of the priests.   
   Nehemiah 13:6   
   6 But in all this time was not I at Jerusalem: for in the two and thirtieth   
   year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon came I unto the king, and after certain   
   days obtained I leave of the king:   
   Nehemiah 13:7   
   7 And I came to Jerusalem, and understood of the evil that Eliashib did for   
   Tobiah, in preparing him a chamber in the courts of the house of God. Nehemiah   
   13:8   
   8 And it grieved me sore: therefore I cast forth all the household stuff of   
   Tobiah out of the chamber.   
   Nehemiah 13:9   
   9 Then I commanded, and they cleansed the chambers: and thither brought I   
   again the vessels of the house of God, with the meat offering and the   
   frankincense.   
   Nehemiah 13:10   
   10 And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given them:   
   for the Levites and the singers, that did the work, were fled every one to his   
   field.   
   Nehemiah 13:11   
   11 Then contended I with the rulers, and said, Why is the house of God   
   forsaken? And I gathered them together, and set them in their place. Nehemiah   
   13:12   
   12 Then brought all Judah the tithe of the corn and the new wine and the oil   
   unto the treasuries.   
   Nehemiah 13:13   
   13 And I made treasurers over the treasuries, Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok   
   the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah: and next to them was Hanan the son of   
   Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah: for they were counted faithful, and their   
   office was to distribute unto their brethren. Nehemiah 13:14   
   14 Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and wipe not out my good deeds that   
   I have done for the house of my God, and for the offices thereof. Nehemiah   
   13:15   
   15 In those days saw I in Judah some treading wine presses on the sabbath, and   
   bringing in sheaves, and lading asses; as also wine, grapes, and figs, and all   
   manner of burdens, which they brought into Jerusalem on the sabbath day:    
   and I testified against them in the day wherein they sold victuals.   
   Nehemiah 13:16   
   16 There dwelt men of Tyre also therein, which brought fish, and all manner of   
   ware, and sold on the sabbath unto the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem.   
   Nehemiah 13:17   
   17 Then I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said unto them, What evil   
   thing is this that ye do, and profane the sabbath day? Nehemiah 13:18   
   18 Did not your fathers thus, and did not our God bring all this evil upon us,   
   and upon this city? yet ye bring more wrath upon Israel by profaning the   
   sabbath.   
   Nehemiah 13:19   
   19 And it came to pass, that when the gates of Jerusalem began to be dark   
   before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut, and charged   
   that they should not be opened till after the sabbath: and some of my   
   servants set I at the gates, that there should no burden be brought in on   
   the sabbath day.   
   Nehemiah 13:20   
   20 So the merchants and sellers of all kind of ware lodged without Jerusalem   
   once or twice.   
   Nehemiah 13:21   
   21 Then I testified against them, and said unto them, Why lodge ye about the   
   wall? if ye do so again, I will lay hands on you. From that time forth came   
   they no more on the sabbath.   
   Nehemiah 13:22   
   22 And I commanded the Levites that they should cleanse themselves, and that   
   they should come and keep the gates, to sanctify the sabbath day. Remember me,   
   O my God, concerning this also, and spare me according to the greatness of   
   thy mercy.   
   Nehemiah 13:23   
   23 In those days also saw I Jews that had married wives of Ashdod, of Ammon,   
   and of Moab:   
   Nehemiah 13:24   
   24 And their children spake half in the speech of Ashdod, and could not speak   
   in the Jews' language, but according to the language of each people. Nehemiah   
   13:25   
   25 And I contended with them, and cursed them, and smote certain of them, and   
   plucked off their hair, and made them swear by God, saying, Ye shall not give   
   your daughters unto their sons, nor take their daughters unto your sons, or   
   for yourselves.   
   Nehemiah 13:26   
   26 Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? yet among many nations   
   was there no king like him, who was beloved of his God, and God made him king   
   over all Israel: nevertheless even him did outlandish women cause to sin.   
   Nehemiah 13:27   
   27 Shall we then hearken unto you to do all this great evil, to transgress   
   against our God in marrying strange wives? Nehemiah 13:28   
   28 And one of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was son   
   in law to Sanballat the Horonite: therefore I chased him from me. Nehemiah   
   13:29   
   29 Remember them, O my God, because they have defiled the priesthood, and the   
   covenant of the priesthood, and of the Levites. Nehemiah 13:30   
   30 Thus cleansed I them from all strangers, and appointed the wards of the   
   priests and the Levites, every one in his business; Nehemiah 13:31   
   31 And for the wood offering, at times appointed, and for the firstfruits.   
   Remember me, O my God, for good.
