* And it happened when the wall was built , and I had set up the doors , and the gatekeepers and the singers and the Levites were chosen , * 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 . * And I said to them , Do not let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot . And while they stand by , let them shut and bar the doors . And set guards from the people of Jerusalem , each one in his watch , and each one [to be ] across from his house . * And the city [was ] large and great , but the people in it [were ] few , and the houses not built . * And my God put into my heart to gather together the nobles , and the rulers , and the people , so that they might be counted by genealogy . And I found a register of the genealogy of those who came up at the first . And I found written in it : * These [are ] the sons of the province who went up out of the captivity , of those who had been carried away , whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away . And they came again to Jerusalem and to Judah , every one to his city , * and came with Zerubbabel , Jeshua , Nehemiah , Azariah , Raamiah , Nahamani , Mordecai , Bilshan , Mispereth , Bigvai , Nehum , Baanah . The number of the men of the people of Israel : * The sons of Parosh , two thousand and seventy-two . * The sons of Shephatiah , three hundred and seventy-two . * The sons of Arah , six hundred and fifty-two . * The sons of Pahath-moab , of the sons of Jeshua and Joab , two thousand , eight hundred and eighteen . * The sons of Elam , a thousand two hundred and fifty-four . * The sons of Zattu , eight hundred and forty-five . * The sons of Zaccai , seven hundred and sixty . * The sons of Binnui , six hundred and forty-eight . * The sons of Bebai , six hundred and twenty-eight . * The sons of Azgad , two thousand three hundred and twenty-two . * The sons of Adonikam , six hundred and sixty-seven . * The sons of Bigvai , two thousand and sixty-seven . * The sons of Adin , six hundred and fifty-five . * The sons of Ater of Hezekiah , ninety-eight . * The sons of Hashum , three hundred and twenty-eight . * The sons of Bezai , three hundred and twenty-four . * The sons of Hariph , a hundred and twelve . * The sons of Gibeon , ninety-five . * The men of Bethlehem and Netophah , a hundred and eighty-eight . * The men of Anathoth , a hundred and twenty-eight . * The men of Beth-azmaveth , forty-two . * The men of Kirjath-jearim , Chephirah , and Beeroth , seven hundred and forty-three . * The men of Ramah and Geba , six hundred and twenty-one . * The men of Michmas , a hundred and twenty-two . * The men of Bethel and Ai , a hundred and twenty-three . * The men of the other Nebo , fifty-two . * The sons of the other Elam , a thousand two hundred and fifty-four . * The sons of Harim , three hundred and twenty . * The sons of Jericho , three hundred and forty-five . * The sons of Lod , Hadid , and Ono , seven hundred and twenty-one . * The sons of Senaah , three thousand nine hundred and thirty . * The priests : the sons of Jedaiah , of the house of Jeshua , nine hundred and seventy-three . * The sons of Immer , a thousand and fifty-two . * The sons of Pashur , a thousand two hundred and forty-seven . * The sons of Harim , a thousand and seventeen . * The Levites : the sons of Jeshua , of Kadmiel , [and ] of the sons of Hodevah , seventy-four . * The singers : the sons of Asaph , a hundred and forty-eight . * The gatekeepers : the sons of Shallum , the sons of Ater , the sons of Talmon , the sons of Akkub , the sons of Hatita , and the sons of Shobai , a hundred and thirty-eight . * The temple slaves : the sons of Ziha , the sons of Hashupha , the sons of Tabbaoth , * the sons of Keros , the sons of Sia , the sons of Padon , * the sons of Lebana , the sons of Hagaba , the sons of Shalmai , * the sons of Hanan , the sons of Giddel , the sons of Gahar , * the sons of Reaiah , the sons of Rezin , the sons of Nekoda , * the sons of Gazzam , the sons of Uzza , the sons of Paseah , * the sons of Besai , the sons of Meunim , the sons of Nephishesim , * the sons of Bakbuk , the sons of Hakupha , the sons of Harhur , * the sons of Bazlith , the sons of Mehida , the sons of Harsha , * the sons of Barkos , the sons of Sisera , the sons of Tamah , * the sons of Neziah , the sons of Hatipha . * The sons of Solomon 's servants : the sons of Sotai , the sons of Sophereth , the sons of Perida , * the sons of Jaala , the sons of Darkon , the sons of Giddel , * the sons of Shephatiah , the sons of Hattil , the sons of Pochereth of Zebaim , the sons of Amon . * All the temple-slaves , and the sons of Solomon 's servants , three hundred and ninety-two . * And these [were ] they who went up from Tel-melah , Tel-haresha , Cherub , Addon , and Immer .

And they had two hundred and forty-five singing men and singing women . * Their horses were seven hundred and thirty-six ; their mules , two hundred and forty-five ; * camels , four hundred and thirty-five ; and six thousand seven hundred and twenty asses . * And some of the chiefs of the fathers gave to the work . The governor gave to the treasury a thousand darics of gold , fifty basins , and five hundred and thirty priest 's garments . * And [some ] of the chiefs of the fathers gave to the treasury of the work twenty thousand darics of gold , and two thousand two hundred minas of silver . * And what the rest of the people gave [was ] twenty thousand darics of gold and two thousand minas of silver , and sixty-seven priests ' garments . * And the priests , and the Levites , and the gatekeepers , and the singers , and [some ] of the people , and the temple slaves , and all Israel , lived in their cities . And when the seventh month came , the sons of Israel [were ] in their cities .
