Nehemiah:7:4-73
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Now the city was large and great :
but the people were few therein ,
and the houses were not built .
*
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 ,
*
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 ;

Jeshua ,
Nehemiah ,
Azariah ,
Raamiah ,

*
The children of Shephatiah ,

*
All the Nethinims ,
and the children of Solomon '
s servants ,
were three hundred ninety and two .
*
And these were they which 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 .
*
The children of Delaiah ,
the children of Tobiah ,
the children of Nekoda ,
six hundred forty and two .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
The whole congregation together was forty and two thousand three hundred and threescore ,
*
Beside their male servants 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 .
*
Their horses ,
seven hundred thirty and six :
their mules ,
two hundred forty and five :
*
Their camels ,
four hundred thirty and five :
six thousand seven hundred and twenty asses .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
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 .
